An English physician relates an in
stance Of a lady who was stung by q
bee. At the first moment she seemed to
pay very htt.e attention 70 it, but very
soon her face became flushed and spots
appeared al over her body. Suddenly
she developed a most severe attack Of
asthma. finding great difficulty in
breathing. Another instance is that of
q young lady who was stung ON the
back Of her head by an ordinary honey
bee. In less than five minutes her face
began to swell, and very marked red
and white spots appeared all over the
surface Of the body. The swelling ex-
tended over the entire person, accompa-
MED by severe pain. burning and giddi
ness The eyes were almost closed and
the countenance was so distorted as to
be unacceptable. Very free bathing
in soda water, with little soda taken
internally, and hot applications TO the
feet and thorough massage finally afford
ed relief, but il was some hours before
the patient recovered from what was
truly an alarming condition. Violent
attacks Of nervousness accompanied the
tronble, and the sense of suffocation
was almost intolerable. The young wo
man had been stung a number Of times
before without any apparent unpleasant
result. The physicians were Of the opin
ion that the bee had been feeding upol
some extremely poisonous plant, which
became concentrated in the venom O
the sting. Be that as it may, the condi
ton was such as to excite grave appre
hension, the more so as it was severn
days before recovery was complete. =
