For the _nervous symptoms_ treatment must correspond to the morbid phenomena. Extreme prostration may demand diffusible stimulants. Spasms and other indications of congestion may be met by cold to the head, and inhalations of ether, followed by potassium or sodium bromide (8 grs.), sulphonal (20 grs.), trional (15 grs.) chloral hydrate in mucilage, or hypnal (15 grs.). Paralysis must be met by tonics, stomachics, easily digestible, rich food, and good hygiene. Pepsin, muriatic acid, nux vomica (½ gr.), arsenite of soda solution (5 drops), arsenite of strychnia (¹⁄₂₀ gr); orexin(3 grs.), strong coffee infusion, wine, and electricity may be tried, in addition to stimulant liniments. Chorea must be treated on the same corroborant plan. Cold douches after which the patient is carefully rubbed dry are sometimes successful, (see Chorea). During _convalescence_ and in all cases of debility and anæmia a similar corroborant treatment is demanded. Pulped raw meat, rich soups, stomachics, tonics including the preparation of iron, and in extreme cases transfusion of blood or a normal salt solution may be resorted to. In _cats_ a parallel course of treatment may be pursued, allowance being made for the smaller size of the animal and the great susceptibility of the feline patient to phenol. INFECTIOUS BRONCHIAL CATARRH. BENCH SHOW DISTEMPER. Under this name Glass describes an affection, milder than the usual distemper, but showing similar lesions and demanding an equivalent treatment. It is not self-limiting the same patient having suffered twice in the same year (an occurrence which is occasionally seen in distemper.) The incubation is 3 to 5 days. Diarrhœa is invariably present from the first, and the fæces slimy and at the end of a week slightly bloody. The affection is characterized by the predominance of the digestive disorder, the absence of skin eruption, the free shedding of the hair in long coated animals, the ulceration of the gums, tongue and lips, and the low mortality. Bacteriological research must be invoked to determine whether this is only a form of distemper or if it is one of a group of diseases which have hitherto been known by that name.
