ORCHITIC TESTICULAR SUBSTANCE 
Prepared from the testicles of the ram.  The val-
ue of the orchitic substance is stated to be assured 
in the treatment of well-defined cases, particularly 
in cerebral depression, failure of reproductive pow-
er, premature senility, nervous asthenia, neuras-
thenia, etc.  In these complaints the employment of 
the orchitic substance gives good results by stimu-
lating the nervous system, by increasing the power 
of work, and also the secretions, the proportion of 
haemoglobin and the vital resistance, etc.  Such 
results are partially explained by the chemical 
composition of the orchitic extracts, which are ex-
tremely rich in organic phosphorus.  The results 
are similar to those obtained by the use of the Gly-
cero-phosphates and Lecithins.

7.  Some M.S.S. end with this Takhallus.  But 
the title seems hardly justified without what fol-
lows.  At the same time, it must be remembered 
that the titles are all probably of late insertion and 
for convenience of reference only. 
8.  According to Mahbub, this is an attack on 
the Q’uran.  (He being like so many Persian to-day 
not only a Sufi, but a follower in secret of El Baab, 
delights to point out these things).  For furious 
[Persian text] is a pun on [Persian text] Salir, a 
prophet, who converted some of the Thamud Tribe
