CURING OF DISEASE
WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS. MANY BRILLIANT SUCCESSES. (United Press Association.) (■By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) LONDON, January 22. (Received Jan. 23, at 9 p.m.) Declaring that there was little doubt that the incurable diseases of to-day would be conquered by brilliant successes of the future, Dr James Collier, speaking at St. George’s Hospital, recalled the cure of pernicious anaemia by feeding patients on liver. Now Dr Wilkinson, of Manchester, had- found something remarkable from the stomach of a pig which could be produced in the form of food and required to be taken only once a day. Moreover, a house doctor at St, George’s, the winner of the scholarship of the Lister Institute, recently succeeded in injecting infantile paralysis into a horse, whose blood, if injected into a patient in time, will avert paralysis. If this had been done years ago many lives would have been saved. The horse was" now extremely valuable, and living in luxury.—Times Cable.
