Not less readily absorbed are the two most powerful antispasmodics and sedatives known, viz., hydrocyanic acid and chloroform. Furthermore, the peculiar sedative influence exerted by Indian cannabis within the intestinal tract is almost magical; and to this tableau of agencies must be added, finally, the well known properties of morphine muriate.*****Framed and ready for display on desk, shelf or wall.
