APPENDIX I 
In advanced cases of the pustular type we have lately 
obtained almost remarkable results from the following 
treatment : 
The largest pustules are first squeezed out and the 
affected areas dressed once or twice, at intervals of a 
day, with the following mixture : 
B Formalin a4 a a Bs dilj. 
Glycerin : a3 ae a2 5. 
Spts. vini rect. £4 oe .. Bij. 
Ol. caryoph. .. ae oe .. Biij. 
Ol. rapii a 2% #5 .. ad 3vj. 
M. Fiat. lin. 
This application at first produces marked hyperemia 
and swelling of the skin. 
After one or two dressings the pustules appear flat- 
tened, dry, and scaly, and the majority soon disappear, 
leaving the skin smooth and apparently healthy. The 
parts are then dressed with Ung. sulph. co. until they 
are thoroughly softened, and then treated daily with 
the following :
