while small in size, is by far the handsomest
of any in make-up and illustrations. It is
brimful of concise and clear statements regard-
ing the history, chemical properties, physio-
logical action, and therapeutic uses of the
drug, and contains some very interesting re-
ports upon the use of the drug in physical and
mental labor, athletic training and exercise.

equally long time (if I live) before I give it up | monograph "Kola Illustrated." The last one,
for any other. I believe in the 'Best' Tonic
as being the best, no punning being intended.
For children it is especially adapted, as not
being acrid or sour, as too many of the brands
are. It sets' well on the stomach (as the old
woman had it) in weak ladies who reject the
ordinary malts. It keeps well, also, which is
an item of moment in hot weather. It is
economical in cost and is pleasant in taste.
Such characteristics ought to make doctors try
it, if you don't already know its merits, and
such of my readers as have not yet invested in
it would do well to find out for themselves
what it really is, and I am sure they will not
be disappointed when they do."

ANOTHER BOOK ON KOLA.

That the old and yet new drug, Kola, is becoming of interest here as well as abroad is apparent from the fact that Johnson & Johnson have issued three large editions of their

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, Tinet. 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.

1600 CHESTNUT ST., PHILA.

The author states that it has been written for "the busy physician.” Certainly it contains all that is old and much that is entirely new, and in such a way as to be available to any who desire to study this drug.

Physicians may secure a copy by addressing the publishers,-Johnson & Johnson.

MESSRS. HELBING & PASSMORE, the great
English chemists, have pronounced Peacock's
Bromides a preparation of chemically-pure
Bromides and far superior to the commercial
salts.

Professor Shoemaker says: "In medicinal doses the action of Phosphorus upon the nervous system is that of a tonic and stimulant. It is useful in nervous debility, neuralgia, sexual excesses, anæmia, paralysis, melancholia, morphinomania, rickets, boils, acne, eczema "-Vide Materia Medica and Therapeutics, vol. ii, pp. 8-10.
