Medical backs and Journals. WHAT TO BUY, AND WHERE TO BUY IT. SPECIAL OFFER TO PHYSICIANS. DEAR DOCTOR: Before ordering medical books and journals we ask you to look over our list and see what you can obtain from us for a few dollars. For example, for five dollars we will send you the American Lancet and Medical Age (the clubbing rate of these journals being $2.50 a year), and twelve valuable books by eminent authors, comprising the Physician's Leisure Library. For an additional $1.75, we will include the Therapeutic Gazette. With the Gazette and Age and Lancet the physician needs no other medical journals. They will keep him thoroughly posted in medical progress and medical news. The Leisure Library is a novel departure in medical publishing. We are in daily receipt of letters from physicians, congratulating us on our having been able to offer practical treatises by the best authors at merely a nominal price. They can hardly realize that we can sell so much good literature for so little money-to tell the truth we do not make much from the sale of these books. We expect, however, that every wide-awake physician in the land will buy them, and thus hope for our profit in the unprecedentedly large sale which they will have. Send 25 cents for a copy if you want to know in just what form they are published, or if you are willing to take our assurance that these are far the best medical books ever published at anything like this price, send $2.50 for the series. We intended talking to you about some other books, for instance, Dr. Dujardin-Beaumetz's excellent work on Clinical Therapeutics, Fothergill's Gout in Its Protean Aspects, Murrell's What To Do In Cases of Poisoning, Palmer's Palatable Prescribing and others, but we haven't space here to tell you about these. You had better send for our catalogue, when you can consider their merits as there set forth at your leisure, or we shall be happy to promptly answer any inquiries you may make by letter. THE IMPROV THE IMPROVED ERICAN POCKET BATTERY, GIVES THE FARADIC AND PRIMARY CURRENTS. For Physicians' and Family Use. The design and arrangement of this Battery are entirely original (not copied). In convenience, portability, power, economy, and durability it has no equal. Our patents cover such parts as make it greatly superior to any POCKET BATTERY now in the market. It has marked improvements over them all in the patent hard-rubber screw-top revoluble cell (like a pocket inkstand), positively holding the mercury solution without leakage, and, therefore, can be CARRIED IN THE POCKET FULLY CHARGED. Another feature of great merit are the heavy brass strips H on the sides of the box connecting the cell with the induction coil-entirely doing away with the small wire connections found in all other machines on the bottom of the box, which corrode and rust by solutions leaking, and are so difficult and expensive to repair. We also furnish two Nickel-plated Electrodes with hard-rubber handles for clamping sponge, chamois skin, etc., abolishing the inconvenient common tube electrode and wood handles in other batteries. Less mercury is consumed for a strong current than in any other instrument of the kind. The primary and secondary currents are changed simply by moving a switch. Full directions accompany each machine. Manufactured by ELECTRO-MEDICAL BATTERY CO., Kalamazoo, Mich. Send for Circular 22 giving special price for a sample battery to physicians prepaid. EVERY BATTERY FULLY WARRANTED. Price, $10.00. NATURE'S NERVE TONIC AND BRAIN FOOD.
