Made experiments on dogs--to study the relative temperature of arterial and venous blood.--_Lancet_, Vol. I., 1857, pp. 371-398. =Schäfer, Edw. Albert=, University College, Gower Street, W.C.

Certificates for Illustrations of Lectures and Dispensing with obligation to kill, 1878-79-80-81-82-83._ “Then may I take it there are a great number of experiments which, supposing a frog to be a sensitive animal, must cause a vast deal of pain, which are not done under chloroform?--There is no doubt of it. And there is no precaution taken to diminish pain, if it suffers pain?--I think I may say no special precaution.”--_Evid. Roy. Com._, Q. 3,801-2. =Schiff, Moritz.= B. at Frankfort, O.M., 1823; Studied at Univs. Heidelberg, Göttingen, and Berlin; Laureate in Med., Gott., 1844; Pupil of Majendie and Longet; formerly Curator of Ornithological Museum, Frankfort; Prof. of Ornith. and Path. Anat., Bern, 1855; Prof. Physiol., Florence, 1872; Prof. Physiol. at Geneva, 1876.

Calls attention to a discrepancy between two statements of Professor Schiff: one stating that the dogs made no noise because they were not in pain; the other stating that their nerves of vocalisation had been cut “pour les empêcher.… de discréditer ainsi les études physiologiques auprês des habitants du quartier” (1287).”--_Digest Ev. Roy. Com._, p. 11. “A number of rabbits were deprived of food until they ate dead frogs thrown into their hutch. The object of this experiment was to show that herbivorous animals could live on animal food (See Schiff, _Physiologie de la Digestive_, Vol. I., p. 67). What use this information may be put to I leave to the judgment of unbiassed minds to determine. I know that the rabbits suffered very much before they were induced to eat the dead frogs.”--_Evid. Roy. Com._, Q. 4,888, p. 244.
