But suddenly the respirations became long and deep, and he exhibited the indications of a profound slumber. An instant afterwards Arundel, whose eyes were constantly turned to the opening, beheld the face of an Indian peering in.

The animal usually acts dull, the walk is slow and unsteady, and the respirations and pulse beats may be quickened. A large percentage of the cases of acute indigestion terminate fatally. The course of the disease varies from a few hours to several days. The treatment is both preventive and curative. The preventive treatment is by far the most important.

I aided my friend's laboured respirations by the usual means, setting to work vigorously; so that presently he began to clutch at his inflamed throat which that murderous pressure had threatened to close. I could hear sounds of movements about the house, showing that not I alone had been awakened by those hoarse screams. "It's all right, old man," I said, bending over him: "brace up!"

To rely upon this first or primary effect, except in instantaneous cases, would be failure. The second factor is the one upon which I can rely in such of the cases as come into my care, save when I cannot induce them to make such a number of respirations as is absolutely necessary.

The character of the heart beats in dogs may be determined by resting the hand on the chest wall. RESPIRATION. The frequency of the respirations varies with the species. The following table gives the frequency of the respirations in domestic animals: Horse 8 to 10 per minute Ox 12 to 15 per minute Sheep 12 to 20 per minute Dog 15 to 20 per minute Pig 10 to 15 per minute

He felt delightfully at ease, and the rays of the sun shining through the branches were at once so subdued, and so comforting, that it came to pass that what he had plotted in fun came about in earnest, and at the end of a few minutes his lids were tightly closed, and his breath came through his lips in long, regular respirations. Mollie heard the sound, and smiled derisively.

Vervain slowly revived; she opened her eyes, then closed them; she did not speak, but after a while she began to fetch her breath with the long and even respirations of sleep. Florida noiselessly opened the door, and met the servant with a tray of coffee. She put her finger to her lip, and motioned her not to enter, asking in a whisper: "What time is it, Nina? I forgot to wind my watch."

Two animals which in equal times take up by means of the lungs and skin unequal quantities of oxygen, consume an amount of food unequal in the same ratio. The consumption of oxygen in a given time may be expressed by the number of respirations; it is, therefore, obvious that in the same animal the quantity of nourishment required must vary with the force and number of respirations.

The color of the diarrhoeal discharges varies according to the character of the feed, and it may be more or less tinged with blood and have a disagreeable odor. The urine is highly colored. The respirations and pulse beats are quickened and abnormal in character. Thumps sometimes occur.

The horse refuses to lie down if both lungs are inflamed. In severe cases the expression of the face indicates pain, the respirations are labored, the general symptoms aggravated, and the animal stands with the front feet spread apart. Cattle are inclined to lie down, unless the lungs are seriously affected. Hogs like to burrow under the litter.
