Calcium- free Ringer's on both sides of the skin. For treatment of frogs 3 to 5 mg of the hormone was implanted in the dorsal lymph sac and kept there for 3 days, after which the animals were killed (28). were seen in potassium-deficient solutions of physiological or higher than physiological sodium chloride levels. It is hard to understand why, then, if po- tassium should be solely subjected to electrostatic forces, some of the potassium should be released from the outside and another portion from the inside of the skin, especially since, under conditions leading to very low skin potentials (3-5 mv), the same kind of inside and outside leakage could be observed.
