732 THE ANIMAL PARASITES OF MAN 



v. Harlingen 1 allayed the affection in his first case by rubbing in 

 sapo viridis and tar, in Kensep's 2 case the cure seems to have been 

 accomplished by an ointment containing resorcin, in Meade and 

 Freeman's' case by a 20 per cent, ichthyol paste. In our case we 

 made exclusive use of Lassar's paste ; within four weeks a cure 

 resulted, probably spontaneously, since one cannot ascribe any 

 essential effect to this paste.
