Under this treatment the system becomes educated in the production of antitoxins, and perhaps also in phagocytosis so that when subjected to the lethal doses of three, four, five and six days preservation, it successfully resists them. The most conclusive argument in favor of its efficacy is this undeniable fact that the individual escapes death under injected doses which in any unprotected system would prove fatal. The results as given by the report of the Pasteur Institute are furnished in the following table, from which are excluded such cases only as developed the disease during the course of treatment, which therefore remained incomplete.
