and glycozone, then I concluded to use these as adjuvants when 
patient returned. 
Owing to impossibility of regular lavage, I furnished patient 
with two ounces of hvdrozone and directed him to add one ounce

This, you will perceive, would procure a clean surface for the 
oncoming meal, though for the first few days it produced some 
discomfort, he said, from accumulation of gas. 
Immediately after meals he was ordered to take a teaspoon¬ 
ful of glycozone in a wineglassful of water and three grains of 
nux vomica. 
The next report was the 16th of July, when the improve¬

then able to eat without any dread of pain or discomfort. 
Prescription was, repeated, and by August ist all signs of 
any lesion of stomach had disappeared. Patient claimed to be 
well for the first time in four and one-half years. 
Treatment was discontinued, of course. I saw this patient 
recently and he had practically no trouble since last August. 
Dr. Finlay Ellingwood, in his excellent “ Materia Medica,” 
says glycozone is one of the best manufactured products of the 
present time in its action upon enfeebled disordered stomachs, 
especially if there is ulceration or catarrhal gastritis.. 
It is a most efficient preparation and I shall use it freely in 
the future.

Subconjunctival Injections have been in use for some 
time, and can by no means be considered anything new or 
novel ; thev have been employed in many instances by practi¬ 
tioners as a last resort, and to the surprise of all concerned have 
proven beneficial. It is a procedure, however, that should not 
be employed promiscuously and without aseptic precautions. 
Before resorting to such treatment of ophthalmic diseases, 
we must consider its indication, and determine to a degree of 
certainty the practicability of such measures. Good results
