 organism, A. CHAUVEAD (Arch. Physiol. Norm, et rath., 5. ser., 9 (1897), pp. 229-238). 



The laws of working muscles during voluntary contraction, as shown by a 

 study of the respiratory quotient, J. Tissot (Arch. Physiol. Norm, et Path., 5. ser., 9 

 (1897), pp. 78-89, figs. 2). 



Experimental studies on elasticity and the energy produced in muscles 

 during voluntary contraction, J. Tissot (Arch. Physiol. Norm, et Path., 5. ser., 9 

 (1897), pp. 90-95). 



Experiments on the law of the consumption of oxygen and the formation of 

 carbon dioxid in the organism, C. Bohr and V. Henriques (Arch. Physiol. Norm, et 

 Path., 5. ser., 9 (1897), pp. 459-474). 



Critical observations on C. Bohr and V. Henriques' s determination of the law 

 of the consumption of oxygen and the formation of carbon dioxid (Arch. Physiol. 

 Norm, et Path., 5. ser., 9 (1897), pp. 710-713). 



Experimental studies on the production of carbon dioxid and the consump- 

 tion of oxygen in the lungs (pulmonary combustion), C. Bohr and V. Henriques

 of death following this procedure, F. Laulanie (Arch. Physiol. Norm, et Path., ■',. ser., 

 9 (1897), pp. 302-316). — Experiments were made with rabbits and a dog. The changes 

 produced in the production of heat and on nutrition of the animals when the skin 

 was varnished were studied. The respiratory quotient was determined. 



Variations in the cooling power of water in terms of temperature and time.

 sion in water, J. Lefevre (Arch. Physiol. Norm, it Path., ■'. ser., 9 (1897), pp. 317- 

 332, figs. 2, dgms. '-'). 



Determination of the heat lost from the total surface of the body owing to 

 the cooling action of water. Experiments with man, J. Lefevre (Arch. Physiol. 

 Norm, et Path., 5. ser., 9 (1897), pp. 758-763, fig. 1, dgm. 1). 



The loss of heat from the body by immersion in water. Experiments with 

 birds, J. Lefevre (Arch. Physiol. Norm, et Path., 5. ser., 9 (1897), pp. 802-809, dgms. 5).

 tion experiments. 



Advantages of modifying the rations fed to domestic animals with a view-

 feeding of animals more economical and remunerative. C. Gorio (Bol. Not. Agr. 

 18 (1897), I, No. ..', pp. 86-S9). — A number of modified rations are suggested.

 7, pp. 4S6-4S9).—\ general article recommending that if skim milk is used care should 

 be taken that the vessels containing it should be kept clean and that it be 

 pasteurized.

 Son, pp. 24, ill.).— An illustrated representation and brief description of the horse, 

 revised and edited by George Fleming.
