When hypochondriac Mr Morton insists that the doctor give him stronger pills, he writes a prescription (seen close-up onscreen) for Saccharum Lactis 20gm - sugar of milk - (and another item with the word "menthol" in it). In other words, he gives the old man a placebo, which the doctor reveals at the very end as "sugar of milk and a little flavoring".
