DR. BENCE JONES ON CHYLOUS UR[NE. 
574‘Ogrs. of urine evaporated in vacuo over sulphuric acid. 
Residue =25‘5 grs. 
= 44*42 grs. per 1000 grs. of urine. 
Burnt. The ash = 4*60 grs. = 8*01 grs. per 1000 grs. of urine. 
1015*4 grs. of urine precipitated with more than twice their bulk of alcohol. 
Albumen and fat =22 /5 grs. =22*40 grs. per 1000 grs. of urine. 
Treated with ether. Residue soluble in ether. 
= 8*5 grs. fat= 8*37 grs. per 1000 grs. of urine. 
Albumen =14*03 grs. per 1000 grs. of urine. 
574 grs. treated with absolute alcohol after evaporation to dryness. 
Alcohol filtered when cold. 
Residue . . . =9*02 grs. =15*70 grs. per 1000 grs. of urine. 
Burnt ash . . =1*40 gr. = 2*44 grs. per 1000 grs. of urine.

In order to watch the variations in the appearance of the urine at different hours 
of the day, it was each time passed into a bottle, marked with the hour at which it 
was made for five successive days. 
First day. Water passed at 
7 A.M. thrown away. Breakfast a pint of coffee ; a quarter of a pint of milk. 
Bread, with little butter or sugar. 
8ii i0'"A.M,, just before breakfast. Quantity one ounce, clear. Acid with pink- 
deposit of urate of ammonia gave no precipitate with heat and nitric acid. Re- 
mained acid three days. 
10 a.m. Reddish colour, milky throughout. Six ounces alkaline, in three days. 
12'' 20'". Milky, thick throughout. Six ounces, alkaline; contained some clots 
of fibrin, 
1'' 25"’ p.M. More thick. White with rather reddish clots, two ounces, alkaline, 
made just before dinner, which consisted of mutton chop, boiled rice, onion 
with bread. 
2'' 20"’ p.M. White, with more blood, six ounces, alkaline. 
6 p.M. More white, with deposit of blood, eight ounces, alkaline; smelt strongly
