Delaware, Illinois, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, Tennessee, Vermont and West Virginia, the diploma is subject to supervision of some designated body vested by law with authority, to determine its validity as evidence of its possessor's qualifications for the practice of medicine. Failing the possession of such a recognized diploma, the right to practice may be acquired by passing a satisfactory examination.

In Arizona, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Michigan, Nevada, Ohio, South Carolina (since the repeal of the Act of 1888), Wisconsin and Wyoming, the presentation of any kind of a diploma-provided that it be from a "chartered" medical institution is the sufficient warrant in law for county clerks, clerks of courts, registrars of deeds and similarly qualified judges of medical fitness to admit to practice.

of blood clots and muco-pus.

"In one case in which the bladder contained "blood clots and the catarrhal mucous membrane "discharged ropy-muco-pus, pepsin injected for the "purpose of liquefying the clots, not only fulfilled "its mission in that direction, but unexpectedly "cleared out the muco-pus and left the interior of 'the bladder quite clean. The process was repeated "as soon as the muco-pus again became abundant, "and the patient experienced a feeling of relief "after the simple cleansing that pepsin afforded."— Fairchild's hand-book of the Digestive Ferments, April, 1892.
