Cases of neuritis of whatever origin appear to beadapted for this simple treatment because we have a 142 AN EPITOME OF HYDROTHERAPY combination of the continuous high temperature withthe stimulating action of the current upon the absorptionof local effusions. A word of caution suggests itself to the author by thefact that he has seen, in the early part of its use, twowhirlpool baths in which the current was under very feeblepressure and the temperature of one of which was 92° is obvious that the effects claimed by the above authori-ties are impossible unless their exact technic in regard totemperature and pressure is followed. The device willcertainly go into disuse unless this
