186 PASTEUR 



The Pasteur Institute, as a collective whole, 

 which had for its first director the illustrious 

 scientist, Entile Duclaux, forms a vast organ- 

 ism, in which the most precious discoveries are 

 evolved. It is frequented by large numbers of 

 students, both native and foreign. It has 

 thrown forth branches throughout the world, 

 and there is today no country that does not pos- 

 sess a Pasteur Institute. We find them in Rus- 

 sia, Turkey, Italy, Brazil, the Argentine Repub- 

 lic, the French colonies, Tunis, Indo-China, 

 Morocco, Cambodia, etc. Every year a new 

 building rises in some corner of the earth where 

 there is some special malady to conquer, and 

 whither a remedy may be brought. Commis- 

 sions set forth from the Institute in the Rue 

 Dutot to go and study on the spot these great 

 epidemics, the modern scourges which must be 

 conquered. 



The Pasteur Institute, today directed by Dr. 

 Roux, is an incomparable working laboratory, 

 in which the most precious discoveries are being 

 evolved, and it is also an admirable instrument
