The venoms of serpents, fishes, 'sscorpions, centipedes, spiders, bees, etc, as well as the blood of the eel, owe their virulence to the presence of toxins similar to those which are excreted by bacteria. In both cases the toxins are specific pro- ducts of the activity of living cells. They are, very poisonous, nonâ€"crys- tallizable colloids, of unknown che- mical Constitution. The venom toxins are very sensitive to the action of h >th and light, are easily (lestroycd by digestive ferments and consequently are. innocuous when mvullou‘od.

Snake poinon alone contains half a dozen distinet toxins, each of which exerts a specific action on the nerv~ 0118 system, the red 01‘ the white blood coi‘puseles, etc. S UIC] DE 0F RAT'I‘LESN A RE S.
