other preparations from this tree in market, but that of Sander’s 
& Sons is the only one prepared^from the leaf. And I am sure 
it is a most valuable aid to the veterinary surgeon. I think that 
no veterinary pharmacy can be complete without it. It will do 
what no other remedial agent will do. It will restore a healthy 
action in a diseased part as no other preparation will. It does 
not appear to me to be an escharotic. It is a deodorizer, and is 
a disinfectant of great power, and I believe is very effective, giv¬ 
en internally, in arresting typhoid tendencies. 
I have used this remedy in several cases of purpura hemor¬ 
rhagica, one a well developed case. I gave it in thirty minim 
doses, twice a day, in combination with one drachm doses of cin¬ 
chona sulph. per bolus, with marked success, as my patient re¬ 
covered. Other cases in which I have used it have recovered. 
Not one that I have used this agent on has died, as yet. I have 
used it also in pinkeye; or more correctly speaking, the prevail¬ 
ing form of pneumonia, with very satisfactory results. I have 
also used this remedy in foot wounds, and I think it superior to 
any other remedy for punctured wounds of the foot.

the sphere of equine medicine. 
The book appears in the form of an eminently practical
