Mixture for Locae Anesthesia. —Hall recommends as 
more active and easier to keep than solutions of cocaine, a mix¬ 
ture of 10 per cent, of resorcine and 20 per cent, of cocaine.

Treatment of Mange in the Dog. —Under the name of 
scabinol, Mr. Issleit recommends the following prescription, 
with which he has obtained excellent results in hundreds of 
dogs: Potassic Soap, 4 parts ; naphthol, i part; styrax, 2 
parts ; extract of tobacco, 3 parts. The compound is used in 
frictions three days consecutively over one-third of the diseased 
cutaneous surface, to avoid general effects. After these fric¬ 
tions, the whole body is washed for three days with diluted 
scabinol (2 tablespoonfnls in a quart of water). The scabinol 
reddens the skin, but in drying leaves a soft surface, which 
drops off after five or six days.— (Berl. Thier. Woch. and Dent.
