It is less than twenty years since
Maj. Ronald Ross announced his
theory that malaria is spread by the
bite of a certain variety of mosqaitoes,
and less than fifteen years since it
was demonstrated that yellow fever,
as well as malaria, is communicated
by another species. Sleeping-sickness
is caused by the bite of the Infected
tsetse of Africa; bubonic plague ia
carried by fleas from infected rats;
the common house-fly spreads the
germs of typhoid fever; and there
may be other ailments, such aa infan'
tile paralysis, that are communicated
by insects. -
Doctor Sambon, an English physi
cian, has lately announced his con
elusion that pellagra, a terrible and
insidious disease ending in insanity
and death, is such an ailment. He
holds that it is communicated to the
well by the bite of a black sand-fly
of tne fimuliidoe family. The most
plausible theory heretofore was that
the disease-germs were taken into the
system through damaged corn used
as food; but thi3 did not explain cases
occurring in districts where no corn
is ever eater. Doctor Sambon went
to Italy in March, where he was join
ed by two representatives of the
American army, to test his theory
that the sand-fly found along certain
st ream 3 in the spring and aulumn
communicates the iniection, us yellow
fever is carried from the sick to the
well by the mosquito. He has re
ported that the disease has prevailed
'or a century beside the streams in
fested with the larvae of the fly; that
ihe period of recurrence of the disease
is the period when the fly assumes its
winged lorm; that when families
move from the infected districts to
regions free from the fly, the children
born there do not have pellagra, even
though every other member of the
family may be afflicted.
