AT p. 627 of your issue of October 25, while noticing Profs. Grassi and Noe's observations on Filaria immitis, you say “Malaria is not the only disease which is propagated by mosquitoes.” May I remind your readers of Dr. Patrick Manson's important observations on Filaria sanguinis-hominis, originally communicated to the Linnean Society by Dr.
