DISEASES OF THE BRAIN AND CORD. 125 



3. Paralysis. 



Frequently a sequela of acute infectious dis- 

 eases, poisons, intestinal parasites, or cysts in the 

 brain. In lambs it is associated with eclampsia 

 of the ewe, both being caused by poor food, ex- 

 posure or the infection that causes abortion. 



When of non-parasitic origin, twenty-grain 

 doses of potassium iodid given in an ounce of 

 water several times daily will do as much good 

 as anything. 



4. Gid.
