The dosage that I have employed was from 10 to 20 cubic 
centimeters intramuscularly injected in the gluteal region. 
Hight cases were treated with milk, all of which were ad-

declining. 
The condition of the respective patients on admission is shown

It will be seen that only two mild cases aborted during the
