4. In 1907 Metchnikoff published a further work, of which an English translation appeared in the same year, edited by Dr. P. Chalmers Mitchell, under the title "The Prolongation of Life". In this Metchnikoff replied to his critics and produced more evidence in support of his thesis. Sir W. Arbuthnot Lane formed the opinion that the great intestine was a useless and dangerous structure independently of Metchnikoff; so also did Prof. Barclay Smith (see an article on the nature of the caecum and appendix by the present lecturer in the Brit. Med. Journ. 1912, vol. 2, p. 1599).
