Brandt of this city has just completed an Important investigation into tbe possibility that dogs may be affected with diphtheria and communicate It thronrh their mouths to nersons.

Tho experiment was made by the Inocula tion of two guinea pigs with the bacilli from the throat of the dog, which was killed because of the strong evidence that it was affected with diphtheria.
