    The family has inherited a huge bottle & glass collection here is an interesting one

    Era 1941 - (Mfg. By Lloyd Brothers Cincinnati Ohio) Label reads:
    Specific Medicines / CANNABIS. -
    Absolute Alcohol 74%, LLOYD BROTHERS, CINCINNATI, O.
    Specific Indications: Nervous depression, tendency to melancholia, with wakefulness. Mental illusions or delusions, and forgetfulness. Uses: To relieve the above conditions, especially if there be pain in the stomach, or distress and discomfort in the pelvic organs especially; frequency of urination, or tenesmus or cystitis.
    Dose: R. Sp. Med. Cannabis, gtt. v to 3ss. Water, 3iv.
    The range of action of this remedy, although classed as a mild one, is quite wide. It especially controls gastric pain, and directly influences pain in the pelvis, especially if the specific indications herein given are present. There are certain conditions of the brain and nervous system which are directly affected by it. It is useful in hysterical patients, and in the mild forms of insanity in women, especially if these be due to menstrual irregularities which are the cause of pain.

    It is useful in delirium, with restlessness, after protracted fevers, and in cerebro-spinal meningitis. In functional disorders of the stomach, with pain, given in conjunction with directly indicated remedies, it is of much value. It does not suppress secretion or disarrange the functional operations of the gastro-intestinal organs. Certain erratic pains in the bowels are controlled by it. It allays abnormal sexual appetite; is given with good results in gonorrhea and controls chordee, priapism and spermatorrhea, and soothes metal anxiety present with these conditions. It cures strangury, spasmodic stricture, painful urination, burning and scalding in passing urine, and frequent urination. It is a remedy for insomnia, especially where, during brief sleep, there are unpleasant dreams. Ellingwood.
    POISON: ANTIDOTE. - Emetic of mustard, followed by large draughts of warm water, then strong tea or coffee. Arouse patient and keep him in motion.

      Under "Indications", is that what it causes? We are talking 148 proof! LOL!! Jamaican "John Crow Battie" is 180-190 proof & illegal there.. Doubt anybody felt the cannabis! LOL! Bet it sold well!

      The dose was : A teaspoonful of the dilution every hour. Shake the bottle before each dose.

      Probably shake it to make sure the alcohol beads right & nobody has watered it down. LOL!

      That'd be on my best shelf. LOL.
