Here are compared the curvesof the ammonia output and the acidosis index. For this comparisononly those days were selected from Table 1 on which the patient wastaking no alkali, as on these occasions the ammonia more nearly representsthe degree of acidosis. Table 2 records the events of a severe diabetes in a boy aged 12; onlythose days are recorded on which no alkali was taken; this patient is. stillimder occasional observation. Chart 3 is plotted from this record andshows a comparison of the curves of the ammonia output and theacidosis index. T. STUART HART 371 Cases of this kind could be multiplied, but they all show a verydefinite parallelism in the curves of the acidosis index and those of theacidosis estimated by the polariscope, and as calculated on the ammoniaoutput. In Table 3 will be found the record of the f
