    sul)cutaneoiis iiijection, in all tliP forms aiid in the smallest doses employed, told in a distinctly recognisable manner upon both blood and urine. A difference consisting of one of degree, and not of actual kind, is noticeable with the different sugars. Those which fail to be susceptible of application on introduction into the general system, are freely thrown out, but at the same time the converse does not strictly hold good, for although susceptible of application they do not miss revealing their presence in a manner distinctly to be per- ceived. Even with dextrose, which seems to possess the greatest aptitude for undergoing application, its introduction is made evident alike through the blood and urine, in proportion to the extent to which it is introduced. The application that occurs is not imme- diate but gradual, and thus evidence is obtainable of the entry that takes place by the addition occurring to the normal sugar.
