Every practitioner in Tropical Countries knows how frequently cases of fever occur in which it is impossible to arrive at a definite diagnosis.

Much light has been thrown on the subject of long-continued fevers by the researches of Leishman, Donovan, Manson, Rogers, etc., especially with regard to Kala-azar.
