Fragmentary as the above data are, they serve to show that we have hitherto been too hasty in concluding that beef and veal measles reside only in the voluntary and striated muscles of their hosts. The facts here recorded prove that the liver of a calf may be extensively invaded by cysticerci, and yet the animal will exhibit no sign of constitutional disturbance. The cestode tuberculosis may come and go without any diagnostic symptom, whilst a few months suffice for the natural death and decay of the parasite by calcareous degeneration. Thus it becomes extremely probable that many experiments hitherto regarded as negative in their results have really been positive; the pathological evidences having been either misinterpreted or altogether overlooked. Every pathologist is familiar with gritty particles in the various viscera of man and animals, but few are probably aware how constantly these are dead and degenerated Cysticerci. The gritty particle itself may be reduced to the merest point, no larger than the _receptaculum capitis_ of the Cysticercus itself, and in course of time it will disappear entirely. Practically it is satisfactory to have experimental evidence of the fact that cattle, as well as other animals, however extensively measled they may have been, can become thoroughly cleansed of the disorder by nature herself. It is only necessary that the diseased animals be separated from infectious influences. Although the beef measle has never yet been found in man, I have for convenience sake introduced the facts of larval parasitism in this place. The sanitary bearings of this subject are far too important to be dismissed in a summary manner. I have shown that the prevalence or rarity of the beef tapeworm in man is strictly dependent upon the habits of the people; this same cause operating to produce healthy or diseased meat-food, according to the degree of civilisation. In this connection the oft-quoted statements of Kaschin respecting the prevalence of tapeworms among the Burätes, and the well-known frequency of this entozoon in Abyssinia, need only be alluded to.
