SPASM 



Is rarely a partial affection, but generally 

 attacks the whole frame, producing universal 

 rigidity and loss of motion in the muscles. 

 This being connected with internal causes, the 

 cure will depend principally on the adminis- 

 tration of sudorifics, viz. emetic tartar, two 

 drachms every night, until the symptoms are 

 removed. 



STRINGHALT 



Is caused probably by a convulsive action 

 of the flexor muscles of the hind leg, whereby 

 the leg is raised higher, and bended more in 

 the hough and stifle than is necessary. An at- 

 tempt to explain its origin would, perhaps, 

 tend neither to its elucidation nor to its re- 

 moval,
