stage, pains of nagging sort, frequent or separated by prolonged intervals, accompanied by nervous rigors and mental foreboding, one or two doses, 3 to 5 grains each, of antikamnia promptly changes all this. If there is a 'sleepy uterus' antikamnia and quinine awake every energy, muscular and nervous, and push labor to an early safe conclusion. Indeed, in any case of labor small doses are helpful, confirming efforts of nature and shortening duration of process. I have just finished treatment of an obstinate case of vomiting in pregnancy.

A FEW months ago I was suffering from hepatic torpor and I am happy to say that after taking two bottles of Peacock's Chionia I feel greatly relieved, and that Chionia has done me more good than any other preparation IA week ago the first dose of antikamnia was have ever used. In hepatic disorders I shall always give it preference to other remedies, knowing its therapeutic value.

IMPERIAL GRANUM.

The result of experience is, that no other

food fills all the indications that this one does.

It is reliable, always digested, and that easily, and is adapted to the baby, the child, the invalid, or the aged.-New England Medical Monthly, December, 1894.

PHARMACY has advanced with giant strides along the line of palatability during the past decade. When we compare the products obtainable in our best pharmacies in the earlier years of our practice with some of the elegant preparations now offered to the profession, this advance seems very marked. Take, for example, pepsin as we found it ten or fifteen years ago, odorous, unstable, variable, and weak in digestive power. The high-grade pepsins, now produced by several manufacturers, are practically free from odor, keep well, and are very active solvents of albumin. The various tablets, capsules, essences, elixirs, cordials, tablets, capsules, essences, elixirs, cordials, and wines of pepsin are examples of this same march of progress. A preparation-Pan-Pep tic Elixir-advertised by Sharp & Dohme elsewhere in this month's BULLETIN seems to promise well.

DISTURBANCES OF INNERVATION.

Robert B. McCall, M D., Medical College of Ohio, Cincinnati, now residing at Hamers ville, Ohio, writes :

given, nervous excitement, mental worry, and gastric intolerance rapidly yielded. This case was a typical one and the result is clearly attributable to the masterful influence of your preparation. If there is any one drug or preparation that can be made to answer every need of the physician for the correction of the multitudinous disturbances of innervation

that occur in the various diseases he is called upon to treat, that one is antikamnia.”

TORPID STOMACH.

If the stomach of your patient is torpid and will not secrete enough gastric juice to digest his food, then give him 2 or more fluidrachms of Seng before each meal. Seng is the only remedy that will normally increase the flow of the digestive fluids.

Elixir Phosphorus Comp.

The difficulty experienced in dispensing Phosphorus in a safe, accurate, and agreeable form has for many years been the greatest drawback to the extensive use of this valuable remedial agent. In this preparation all of these objections have been thoroughly overcome; it is absolutely reliable, non-irritating, and very pleasant to the taste. Each fluid dram or teaspoonful contains one one-hundredth (1-100) of a grain of Free Phosphorus held in perfect solution and of assured stability, keeping without oxidation or change for any length of time. It may also be combined with other preparations, such as Tinct. Nux Vomica, Tinct. Ignatia Amara, Tinct. Cinchona Comp., Elixir Iron, Quinine, Strychnia, etc. The quantity of Phosphorus in each teaspoonful being assured to the Physician, he can readily prescribe this Elixir with confidence and advantage to the patient.

The treatinent recommended is such as almost any practitioner may carry out."-Journal of the American Medical Association.
