Action of Gamboge. Experiment 22. Dog that had fasted eighteen hours. Weight 4-8 kilogrammes.—3 cc. of bile and 3 cc. of water were injected into the duodenum at b (fig. 22). Previously to this there was, consideringthe small size of the dog, a large secre-tion of bile. The increased secretionwhich followed the injection was probablyowing to the action of the bile. Twentygrains of gamboge in the same quantity ofbile and water were given at g, and 40grains in the same fluid at g. Half anhour after the first dose there was a de-cided acceleration of the biliary flow, butin an hour afterwards it had temporarilysunk nearly to zero. If the mean be taken, it will be found that the increaseof secretion was so slight that it might have been due to the bile that was givenwith the gamboge. On the w
