(ii) In cases of suspected alcoholic poisoning in man the contents
of the stomach and its washings in pure water should be
placed in a bottle with a sufficient quantity of clean table
salt to saturate the solution and leave a little salt un-
dissolved. The stomach itself, after being washed in pure
water as above, may be preserved in alcohol as in (i).
(iii) In cases of suspected cattle poisoning the viscera or other
material may be preserved in spirit or in a solution of
common salt. If a solution of salt is used it should be
prepared as follows :
—
Common salt should be added to pure water at the tempera-
ture of the air and stirred until no more salt dissolves,
when the solution should be filtered through a plug of
cotton wool. The bottle containing the viscus or other
material should be filled up with the solution to within 1/4
of an inch from the stopper. To obviate any danger
from a solution of salt being tampered with, a separate
sample of the solution should in every case be sent to
the chemical examiner by the officer despatching the
viscus, and another sample should be retained in a sealed
bottle in his office.
3. Great care should be taken that the stopper or cork of the bottle
fits tightly. This precaution is especially necessary when alcohol is
used as a preservative ; in such cases a ring of bees—or candle-wax
should be placed round the lip of the bottle so as to cover the shoulder
of the stopper. The stopper should be carefully tied down with bladder
or leather and sealed.
4. The glass bottle or jar should then be placed in a strong wooden
or tin box, which should be large enough to allow of a layer of raw
cot t on, at l eas t 3/ 4 of an i nch t hi ck, bei ng put bet ween t he ves s el and
the box.
5. The box itself should be encased in common cloth, which should
be securely closed and sealed. The seals should be at intervals
not exceeding three inches along each line of sewing. All the seals
must be of the same kind of wax and must bear distinct impressions
of the same device. The device should ordinarily be the office seal
of the officer despatching the parcel. The device must in no case be
that of a current coin or merely a series of straight or curved lines.
6. Despatching officers will be held personally responsible that
these instructions are carefully followed. Whenever practicable such
parcels should be packed under the immediate supervision of a medical
officer.
7. A declaration of contents to the officials of the postal department
is unnecessary, and should not be made.
8. The chemical examiner should be furnished for his information
and guidance with every detail obtainable (including a copy of the report
284
Specimens for laboratory examination.
Appx. XXI.
of the post mortem examination) which will throw light on the case or
afford him a clue.
9. It is important that substances supposed to contain poison should
be analysed with as little delay as possible. When reasonable
suspicion exists that poison has been used in the commission of an
offence, the substance supposed to contain the poison should be at
once sent to the chemical examiner.
10. Registered parcels up to a limit of 25 seers in weight are
accepted for transmission by post, and the post should, as far as
possible, be used in preference to the railway in medico-legal cases.

APPENDIX XXIV.
DIRECTIONS FOR MEASUREMENTS OF ELASTIC STOCKINGS
AND TRUSSES.
I. Directions for the measurement for elastic stockings.
Round upper third of thigh.
Round centre of thigh.
Round lower third of thigh.
Round thigh just above condyles of femur.
Round knee-cap.
Round leg just below head of tibia.
Round middle of calf.
Round leg just below calf.
Round malleoli at ankle.
Round foot just above heel.
Round instep.
Round great toe joint.
Length from centre of back of upper third of thigh to lower border
of heel.
Distance from point just above centre of heel to great toe joint.
Those measurements only which are necessary for the manufacture
of the particular size and length of the stocking required should be
given, and all measurements must be stated in inches. The length
of the stocking required should be taken by following the contour of
the back of the leg while the patient is standing erect.
II. Trusses.
State description of hernia.
State whether the hernia or weakness is on the right, left or on both
sides.
Give some idea of the size of the protrusion, e.g., as big as an egg
or a walnut.
State approximate size of opening through which hernia escapes.
The measurement for a truss, whether inguinal or femoral should
be taken in the following manner ; a measured tape is to be drawn
fairly tightly round the pelvis, just below the crests of the ilia, and the
two ends made to meet above the symphisis pubis, when the number
in inches can be read off.
Send number of old truss, if one is in use.

PERIOD OF TURNOVER OF DRUGS, ETC.
NOTE.—The periods of under five years are, with a few exceptions, based on phys
ical and chemical changes only. Deterioration in therapeutic value has not been taken
into consideration.
It should be realised that the periods in question cannot be
