1. Chronic barbital poisoning in dogs reveals: (a) A slight grade of tolerance existing for a time; (b) following the more tolerant period, a static stage, which in turn is followed by a stage of intolerance.
2. Damage to the central nervous system occurs, which can be related to progress and symptomatology of the chronic poisoning.
3. Experimental evidences herein presented furnish a basis for a more thorough understanding of the problems involved in chronic poisoning and addiction to barbiturates in man.
