The si.\teenth edition .,„««^_ contains over Soo ]>ages of new material, includ- ing the latest informa- tion about the mydriatic alkaloids, the new anti- jwretics, antiseptics, etc. The National Formulary has also been incorpo- rated, and the gain to both authorities of having their valuable informa- tion connected, so that whilst working from a formula the operator may have a reference to the article on the sub- ject in the Dispensatory, is one that every practi- cal pharmacist will thor- ouglily appreciate. The work is recog- nized by the government of the United States as the standard work of reference, and is en- dorsed and universally used by colleges of medi- cine and pharmacy and State examining boards. The work is well worthy of appreciation on the part of all interested in the progress of medi- cine and pharmacy, and we bespeak for it not merely a place upon the bookshelf of every pharmacist, but a careful perusal, as embracing much that is important in the way of current in- formation, and as containing valuable matter as a work of ready and convenient reference.— Druggist's yournal. There is but one book used more every day by the practising physician than the dispen- satory, and that is the dictionary. Both are reference works, and to be without either would be very much like attempting to walk on one stilt. While it has been but half a decade since the issue of the last edition of the U. S. Dispen- satory, the marvellous activity of the delvers in medical science has given the revisers of this great work a goodly amount of new material to scan, and place it where it will do the most good in this large volume.— Cinciruiatc Lancet-Clinic. Nux Vomica. PRESS COMMENTS. The book is bound to have an enormous sale, as it is a positive necessity to all who wish a complete compendium of drugs and medi- cines.—Minneapolis Medical yournal. This is undoubtedly the most important- edition of this voluminous and indispensable work yet issued ; not because it is the latest, but because it has gathered within its capacious limits everything that is new in materia medica or therapeutics, chemistry, and pharmaceutical research.—Philadelphia Clinical Record. We commend this work as a most valuable addition not only to pharmaceutical literature, but to the medical profession asalmoet invaluable. Its literature, its chemistry, and its pharmacy are fully up to any similar work here or abroad of its kind, and the high standard of excellence in the past is only enhanced by the thoroughly re- liable and trustworthy work of the present edition.■'—Pharmaceutical Record.
