A  sl:  sediment  formed  in  the  product  but  soon  settled,  and  the 
prep  ution  is  now  clear.  It  has  the  taste  and  slight  tingling  sensa- 
tion and  acridity  of  the  drug,  and  is  well  worth  medical  trial.  It 
mixes  clear  with  water,  syrup  or  diluted  alcohol  and  turbid  with 
alcohol.
