The supposed -relation of bacteria'
to disease production also dates back
before tine Christian oro. All of these
theories were pule speculation.
Even as early as 1850 Rayer :and
some of his associates had seen the

their:importance, • In 1860, Detafond'
demonstrated that the bacilli found in
anthrax were living organisms, and
not mere carriers or containers of the
infection. But it was lett to Pasteur
to demonstrate' fully that the bacteria
were the sole cause of the disease, and
thus to lay the realfoundation of the
germ theory. The true story of the
birth of the germ theory disease be-
gins when in, 1876, we find Pasteur
taking up the study of the anthrax
