They concluded that it conld be stated with certainty that the organi-sms in question did not stand in causal relation to scarlet fever. They considered that special methods of microscopical and biological research were apparently needed for demonstrating the true scarlet fever contagium, which probably was especially present in the skin. They considered that the presence of the. Fig. 125.—Pure-Cultivatioxs of Streptococcus Pvogenes.

They pi-eferred to use the term " secondary " to " complicated " oi' " combined " infection, because this expresses the fact that by the effect of the scarlatinal virus the soil is rendered suitable for this ubiquitous microbe when it has once gained an entrance. This streptococcus was found by Klein in five out of eleven cases.
