DIPHTHERIA. 313 



" The attenuated virus of diphtheria is widely distributed and it readily 

 regains its virulence. It is therefore necessary at the very commencement 

 of simple forms of throat disease, and of those associated with measles 

 and scarlatina, to practice careful and frequent swabbing of the throat with 

 antiseptics."
