Treatment.--Punctures scarified and cupping applied. Repeated doses of strychnine acetas hypodermically given, but in _quarter grain_ doses. It seemed marvellous. The cyanotic patches in the skin gradually faded away and the body became warmer. It was wondered if the person had expired, but suddenly the woman called for a drink of cold water to bathe her dry and parching mouth. This was done and she recovered sense. She was admitted on the 3rd September, 1891, and discharged on the 10th. Took _three grains_ of acetate of strychnine to effect a cure. CASE 5.--Paroati Devi, Hindu female, aged 67 years, healthy constitution. Bitten on big toe of left foot on 10th September, 1891, symptoms were as preceding. The wound was cauterised. Treatment.--Strychnia was given very cautiously, as the patient was over-aged, the degeneration of the heart kept in view--1/10 grain eventually showed the peculiar strychnine symptoms. The patient was cured in two days and discharged cured on the third day, 14th September, 1891. This patient took in all _one and a half grains_ of acetate of strychnia. CASE 6.--Maya Swuper, aged 38 years, bitten by echis carinata (without dots) on the lower third of the left leg, on the outside of it. Mucous membrane of the mouth, eyes, nostrils, ears, and urinary passages all bled profusely. Urine had clots in it and symptoms resembled those in the first case. Treated with strychnine and recovered in four days. Was admitted on the 14th September, 1891, and discharged to duty on the 18th September, 1891. Took in all _three grains_ to effect cure. CASE 7.--Avghunandan, customs semadar, aged 55 years, Hindu male. Bitten at 8 a.m. on the 29th March, 1892, by echis carinata (brown variety) on the right foot near the cuboid bone. The punctures were distinct and the symptoms like those of case 1. Bleeding was profuse in this case. Treatment.--Strychnine acetas injected _in quarter grain_ doses under the skin and repeated as often as desirable. Patient recovered after the sixth day and took in _all four grains of strych. acet._ in six days. Only the bitten leg had erysipelatous inflammation, which had to be treated afterwards, but the man was quite safe.
