PRICE, $1.00 NET. P. BLAKISTON'S SON & CO., Publishers, Philadelphia. PHARMACEUTICAL FORMULARY The object kept in view in the compilation of the present edition of this work has been to bring together, in a compact and convenient form, the whole of the formulæ in the British, French, German, and United States Pharmacopoeias, together with those of the chief unofficial formularies in common use in this country and abroad, and such other medicinal formulæ as experience has proved to be of more than merely local importance. With that object the work has been entirely re-written. Obsolete and archaic formulæ, except such as are at present official in one or other of the contemporary Pharmacopoeias, have been omitted; and whilst English-speaking and Continental pharmacists now have presented to them, in the form of a single handy volume, all that is best in what is practically the world's pharmaceutical practice, they will also find no lack of suggestions for the production of new and elegant formulæ whenever the occasion may arise for devising such.
