ess of gangrene. Itsbeneficial effects in all spasmodic diseases are well established,and Dr. CuUen says he can vouch for its powers in retrocedentgout, which in many instances he had seen suddenly relievedby large doses of musk. It checks the vomiting in cholera,at the same time that it allays the termina of the intestines.In epUepsy, more benefit has been derived from musk in com-bination with calomel than from any other remedy, andmuch of the disappointment which others have experiencedmay be attributed either to the remedy not having been gen-uine, or to the smallness of the dose. To obtain the fullbenefit of musk in this disease, the dose must be much largerthan that which is usually given, it should be repeatedat shorter intervals, and its use be continued for a longerperiod. It may be given in the form of pill or emulsion. The me-dium dose is ten grains, to be repeated every two or threehours. In the cases of children, it may be given with greatadvantage in the form of enema. 6
