As knowledge of the r81e played by the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems increases, and therapeutic measures become more efficient, tests for the functional imbalance of these systems become essential. Brown has gathered together the important types of test so far evolved through n-hich objective comparison of abnormal to normal function can be made.

Roentgenological studies of lymph glands and Iymphatie vessels of the legs of guinea pigs show that in diseases clue to secondary infection of the lymph glands and vessels a less pronounced x-ray shadow is obtained after subcutaneous injection of thorium dioxide. It seems that the infection reacts on the reticuloendothelial system, reducing its ability to retain the electronegative thorium dioxide and decreasing the permeability of the lymph vessels. J. E.
