ISO EjLpirimental Sttnff/ of Fever temperature (Rabbit li)) is seen to rise after each injection by stepsto a point which may be re«;arded as tlie nuixinuil response and thenbegins to fall to nornuil in spite of further injection of a secondpreviously effective dose and of a dose which previous experiment hadshown was about the optimum for a spike temperature. A similar effect is seen with Kabbit 20, in which the maximumtemperature is soon reached by giving a large initial dose of pyrogen,and whose temperature falls in spite of further injections. The charts on pp. 107-117 of the Report of the Royal Commissionon Tuberculosis (1913) show how the sensitiveness to Bacillus tuberculosisdiminishes after each injection. A similar result was obtai
