culosis.

The Early Diagnosis E. H. Butterfield of Pulmonary Tuber- (Illinois Medical Journal, May, 1908) gives the following points upon this most important subject:

After considering in detail the earlier signs and symptoms, the diagnosis of tuberculosis of the lung is suggested to the physician, even without the occurrence of bacilli in the sputum, by one or more of the number of symptoms detailed, ill looks, loss of weight, tachycardia, blood spitting, etc. He is now called upon to make an accurate physical examination of the lungs, as well as watching the temperature over a period of several days. If the examination reveals the slightest deviation from the normal type of breathing at one apex, if there occurs on inspiration or coughing the slightest crackle or whinning, if the percussion note is higher in pitch, less resonant with a tympanitic quality, we can say definitely and positively that this is an infiltration at one apex, and we may also assume that it is tubercular with the same degree of probability that we can assume in other diseases. Chronic pneumonias, if of nontubercular nature, are almost always confined to the lower lobes. From hereditary syphilis we can differentiate from the

fact that the white pneumonia of syphilis, both in its lobar and lobular form, occurs in the lower lobes; this form of lung trouble, together with malignant growth, occurs so rarely it need hardly be considered.

In the latent, obscure and closed cases I have come to believe that tuberculin properly administered is a safe and reliable diagnostic agent. Early tuberculosis reacts to tuberculin in the most positive manner. The limitations of its use, of course, are febrile cases. Cases of the advanced type frequently give no reaction, the tissues of such patients having become resistant to the poison. It is said that leprosy, actinomycosis and syphilis react to tuberculin. For diagnostic purposes the technique of administration is as follows: It must be first assured that the patient has no continued fever by noting. and carefuly recording the temperature every two hours from 8 A. M. to 10 P. M. for two days. First 1⁄2 to 1 milligram of Koch's old tuberculin is injected subcutaneously, this amount being obtained by suitable dilution of the original solution; if no temperature is produced by this amount 3 to 5 milligrams may be given in a second injection after an interval of three days. If there is no fever
