different from that which occurs with ordinary foods. 
The urine in one instance (May 10) had a celery odour,

maximum increase of the air and the carbonic acid. 
I like sugar moderately, but Mr. Moul dislikes it.

Milk, a highly complex body, both as a whole, and in nearly aU its elements, excites

cold good new coL’ milk gave me a maximum increase of 2-26 grs of caibomc acid per 
lute on one occasion, and 1-9 gr. per minute on another. Wite the latter, the nucrt- 
mum increase in Mr. Moul was -94 gr. per minute. The maximum increase m th 
lired air was 96 cubic inches per minute in myself, and 22 cubic inches per imnute 
in Mr. Moul. The rate of both respiiation and pulsation was increased in myseli, but 
not in Ml. Moul. t>i . yityv fi<. 15 One pint of good skimmed
