This is sometimes expressedas pressure deep in the upper part of the nose. I find it neces-sary to repeat the theridion every few hours, sometimes for anumber of weeks, before any positive signs of improvement areobserved,—one of the earliest being a diminution in the degreeof ofFensiveness of odor.

The larynx is the organ of voice, and as such deserves asomewhat extended anatomical consideration. It is situatedbetween the base of the tongue above and the first ring of thetrachea below; to the former it is attached, in part, by ligamentsand muscles through the intervention of the hyoid bone, and tothe latter by the crico-tracheal ligament. On each side of it are found the large blood-vessels, nerves,and some of the muscles of the neck. The vocal organ is freelymovable, laterally and vertically, its antero-posterior motion be-ing somewhat limited. These various movements occur, as anatural process, during respiration, deglutition, vocalization,etc., but greater mobility is evident upon manipulation. The larynx is composed of a frame-work of cartilages, heldtogether by means of ligaments, and moved by the contraction ofmuscles. Tl
