[2988] Fée thinks that it would exercise quite a contrary effect. Marc of olives is no longer used in medicine.

[2989] It would produce no good effect in the treatment of ulcers.

[2990] Fée remarks that it would have no such effect.

[2991] See B. xii. c. 60.

[2992] See B. xxii. c. [21].

[2993] Fée thinks that it might prove useful in this case.

[2994] Unboiled.

[2995] See c. [35]. There is no analogy, Fée says, between marc of olives and the leaves of the wild olive.

[2996] This is hardly a peculiarity, for he has said already that the cultivated olive is employed with honey to arrest the flow of blood.

[2997] The tannin which it contains in great abundance may possibly have this effect.
