attached to the body only by a small pedicle at the junction of 
the four limbs. There were no abdominal or thoracic walls, but 
all the viscera were present floating in the foetal membranes. 
Another foetus was present, normal but dead. 
NEW REMEDY. 
By W. Cutting, Y.S. 
I have began the use of a (to me) new remedial agent, the 
“ ol Ucalyptol folis.” The first case I used it on was a case of 
foetid nasal gleet. On the 20th of March, 1882, I trephined the 
frontal sinus on the near side of the head of an oldish gelding, in 
good, fair condition. Although kept in a shed outside of a brick 
barn, containing twelve or fifteen horses, he made the whole 
premises stink. The discharge was constant from the near 
nostril; the submaxillary gland was swollen and hard on the near 
side. I made an opening five-sixteenths of an inch in diameter 
into the sinus, syringed it out with warm water, and then rinsed 
the cavity out with a weak solution of chloride of lime. The 
next day I dressed it with the ucalyptol, injecting a small quan¬ 
tity into the cavity. The fetor ceased immediately. I continued 
the dressing once a day, rinsing out first with warm water and 
then injecting the ucalyptol. On the 16th of April I dressed 
him the last time, and reported him cured. I saw him a day or 
two since. The cure is permanent, and the lump under the jaw 
has disappeared. 
CARTILAGINOUS QUITTOR. 
By the Same. 
I have now a case of quittor that I am dressing with the ol 
ucalyptol. The owner ordered me not to cut the foot on any ac¬ 
count. The animal, some six months ago, picked up a nail, 
wounding, I think, the inner alse of the os pedis of the near hind 
foot. The foot was poulticed by the groom thoroughly. Some 
time ago I examined the foot, and although there was a small
