It is unfortunsto that the new "B18111; reducing drug, dinltmphenol, is not more safe for use; from var. ious cities reports are coming of sev- ere skin reactions, collapse, and s. number of deaths. . It should prove a. very vnluabl drug when more about it is known and some method of testing pat- ients so that it can be definitely known when and where it is safe to use it. A drug that csni crease the rste at which the body processes work by 50 per cent without in- creasing the pulse rate, the heart beat, cr the temperature is certainly s remarkable drug.

1n an effort to find out whe“ it is possible to know when a patient can safely use dlnithrophenol, Dr. Edward Matzger, San Ekancisco, used three diflerent methods of skin testing. l. The patch test in which s small quantity of dlnitrophenol pow- der was placed, on the front of the forearm and covered with waxed paper held in position with a. wide strip oi adhesive plaster, Readings were msds at intervals of 24, 48, ‘l2 snd 96 hours. I. The scratch test in which s 2 per cent solution of dinitrophepol was rubbed into a little scratch of the skin about one-quarter inch long. Readings were made in 5 minu- tes, 15 minutes, and 34 hours. 8. The intradermsl test in which s 1 per cent solution oi dinitrophe- ncl was injected into the upper arm. Readings were recorded in 5 minu- too, 15 minutes and 2A hours. 4. The indirect test in which blood serum from a patient who had n violent reaction from using dini- trophenol was injected into those who were not sensitive to it. Read-

nificent figure on the background ings were made in 5 minutes, 15 of history. It has been the fashion minutes and in 2i hours.

It seems strange to us that one should describe the eighties of the nineteenth century as seething with nerve-wracklrig activities. In that time you could read a. newspaper or shake hands with s. friend in the middle of the street, or walk along c. coirntry road brooding upon the eternal verities, without looking before q;- behind for sutomobil Men were prosecuted for "furious driving" at a pace which would now hold back a. stream of traffic on the highway, No airships, no radio, no motion pictures with or without _sound._ If the railways made you nervous you could avoid them. To us this suggests a calm and leisurely llie instead of the hectic activity described by Dr. Beard. Even now, the nerves of the human race have not quite gone to pieces. and it looks as if from time to time we are sble to adjust our- selves to new environments. We learn, before crossing the street, to look automatically for the green signal, and we turn oil’ the rsdio when the charms of chewing gum are too blatantly voiced.
