Weight of bone, half a grain, very thin and transparent. The solution not being quite completed, I added two drachms more of gastric juice, and continued it on the bath twelve hours. — 8. 10 o'clock, A* M., all dissolved to a mite"^— ■ quarter of a grain, or less. After the solution of the bone, the menstruum was a greyish white, opaque fluid, nearly of the color and con- sistence of clear, thin gruel, witli considerable fine brown sediment at the bottom of the vial, after standing at rest awhi...le ; and had a peculiarly insipid, sweetish taste, and smell — not the least foetor or rancidity. ♦18 Digitized by Google ?!?> EXPERIMENTS AND It will be seen, in this experiment, that the piece of bone was dissolved in proportion to the quantity of gas- tric juice 'applied, and that the solution ceased at longer or shorter intervals, as a larger or smaller quantity v/^s added.
