About 18 months ago he got the hunch that the tetanus toxin which causes the first stage of the disease must be different from the poison which causes the second fatal stage. To test his hunch he injected both small and large amounts of tetanus toxin directly into the spinal cords of more than 60 dogs. The injections were always followed by muscular paroxysms and death, even though 100 times the neutralizing dose of antitoxin was in the bloodstream and even though some doses of the poison were...

...such girlish fun, "to capture the spirit of New York's glittering and legendary years." To their idyllic plot they have added an atmosphere as romantic as a pair of handcuffs, a sty's-the-limit vulgarity. To those who were not of theatre age in 1900, / Must Love Someone gives the impression that the Florodora Sextet included such glamor girls of the past as Red Light Annie, Chicago May and Lizzie Borden...
