The consumjition of the Nissl sub-stance in the brain-cells is lessened or prevented by mor-phin, as is the output of adrenalin; and the consumption ofthe Nissl substance is also lessened or prevented by nitrousoxid. Jjut morphin does not prevent the action of adrenahninjected into the circulation, hence the control of morphinover energy expenditure is exerted directly on the l^rain-cells. Apparently morphin and nitrous oxid both act THE KINETIC SYSTEM 203 ofe.
