    The following record is from a case of epithe- lioma of the tongue which was never operated upon, owing to the infection of the sub-lingual glands. These indicate axillary, instead of sublingual, tem- perature, and cover the time from his admission, Jan. lo, 1889, until his death, which occurred March 2, of the same year. The next record of axillary temperature is from a patient, aged 63, with cancer of the uterus and vagina, showing a decided and pretty regular curve, but the actual temperature remaining low.
