In 17 cases he obtained very good results from the following method of treatment of soft chancre: Taking an ordinary eye pipette, he plugged the narrow end of it with a small piece of absorbent cotton, and in the wide end he placed several crystals of metallic iodine, after which he connected the pipette, with a rubber tube, with a balloon and held it over the flame of an alcohol lamp, until violet iodine fumes appeared; Then, squeezing the cylinder, he expelled iodine vapors to the surface of the chancre ulcer, previously washed with boiled water and dried with hygroscopic absorbent cotton, until a layer of tiny iodine crystals was deposited on the ulcer.
