    (WC_H V? errs J v ^Uc^JL (tftS» VACCINATIO PROF. C. A. LINDSLEY, M.D., MeMcal Department, Yale College, December, 1881. Nothing Jiowever beneficent can escape the criticism of the times in which we live. The criticism of vaccination, often passionate and violent, relates chiefly to points which, however interesting they may be, leave the main question unaffected. We may speculate about the possibility of the Jotency of vaccine being exhausted in the human family ; we may be surprised to find that people with good vaccine scars sometimes have Small-Pox ; we may dispute as much as we please about the average period when re-vaccination may be considered a pru- dent safe-guard; * * * but after all we find that we rest in a security against the hot rid pestilence of Small-Pox unknown to former generations!'—Dr. George Derby.
