DiMMM of the Protective Apparatns of the Eye.—Not infrequently, especially after distemper, the eyebrows and eyelids are affected with a troublesome eczema, which must be treated on the general principles that apply to that disease. Occasionally, particularly in neglected, ill-fed dogs and after distemper, the edges of the lids also tend to inflame and remain in a condition of chronic irritation, leading to exudation, scabs, loss of eyelashes, etc. The condition does not always yield readily to treat- ment. The lids should be bathed with warm, soothing lotions, as boric acid and laudanum, dried, and anointed with vaseline, while attention is paid in every way to the general health and the surroundings. If this simple treatment is not effective, it may be necessary to apply a mercurial ointment, either the red oxide-of-mercury ointment (pink ointment), three grains to 9ne drachm of vaseline, or, better, the officinal nitrate-of- mercury ointment (citrine ointment), one drachm to one ounce of vaseline.
