SALICYLIC ACID AND SALICYLATES. 533 



the urine in the after period, while slightly greater than in the pre- 

 servative period, is still far below that of the fore period. The total 

 weight of solids excreted is, in this case, less in the preservative period 

 than in the fore period and still less in the after period. No. 7 in this 

 respect differs from five of the six cases already cited. 



No. 8. 



In the case of No. 8 there is a slight decrease in the volume of the 

 urine in the preservative period and a very notable decrease in the 

 after period. The volume of the urine is very great in the case of 

 No. 8 and the specific gravity correspondingly low, being slightly 

 greater in the preservative period and notably greater in the after 

 period than in the fore period. The quantity of solids excreted in the 

 urine is slightly greater in the preservative period and still farther 

 increased in the after period. 



No. 9. 



The volume of urine in this case is greater in the preservative period 

 and slightly greater in the after period than in the preservative period. 

 The specific gravity is slightly higher in the preservative period, and 

 in the after period it is almost the same as in the preservative period. 

 The total weight of solids excreted is greater in the preservative period 

 and almost the same in the after period as the preservative period. 



No. 10. 



There is a notable increase in the volume of the urine in this case 

 in the preservative period, and the volume in the after period is almost 

 identical with that of the preservative period. The specific gravity 

 is less in the preservative period and still further diminished to a 

 slight extent in the after period. The weight of the solids excreted 

 is greater in the preservative period and almost the same in the after 

 as in the preservative period. 



No. 11. 



The volume of the urine in the ease of No. 11 is less in the pre- 

 servative period and is almost the same in the after as in the preserva- 

 tive period. The specific gravity of the urine in the preservative 

 period is increased and in the after period is only slightly less than in 

 the preservative period. The total solids excreted are high and are 

 slightly less in the preservative period and still further diminished in 

 the after period. 



No. 12. 



The volume of the urine in this case is notably diminished in the 

 preservative period and increased over the preservative period in the 

 after period, but not to the volume of the fore period. The specific
