The oedema which occurred in this experiment was considerable, as the frog gained 

 117 grains on its original weight of 423 grains. 



The solution of 1 : 20.000 of strophanthin produced but little effect on the blood- 

 vessels in 30 min. ; and even in 55 min., the reduction in their calibre amounted to only 

 one-half. This experiment may be compared with Experiment CXLV. and its curve 

 (Plate XIX.), in which rapid and great contraction of the blood-vessels by 1 : 20,000 

 solution of digitalin is exhibited. 



Experiment CXL. — Normal saline followed by solution of strophanthin in saline, 

 1 : 10,000, and 19 min. afterwards by digitalin in saline, 1 : 20,000 (Plate XX.).
