REPORTS OF CASES.

On the sixth day the temperature began to increase, and 
about the seventh day reached 104 deg. F., which was re¬ 
lieved by quinine, and began to subside down to 101, and 
fluctuated between 101 and 102 deg. F. until about the 
tenth day. 
The scrotal swelling having continued to increase, diuret¬ 
ics were administered, the parts freely scarified, and the hot 
fomentations kept up. 
The scarification gave escape to a large flow of serosity,

About the tenth day the horse was put on regular walking 
exercise out of town. He was sent home, and when last 
heard from was doing very nicely.

done, so the animal was put under mineral tonics and hot 
fumigations. 
A few days before the admission of the patient to the hos¬ 
pital she was again brought to the practitioner, with the his¬

the first. 
Wishing to be more positive, he made arrangements to 
have her examined at the clinic, when the following notes 
were taken: Temperature, pulse and respiration normal; 
general condition fair; a thin, watery, pearly-colored dis-
