TRI-IODIDES HENRY LIQUOR SALI-IODIDES.— Colchicin, 1-20 grain; Phytolaccin, 1-10 grain; Solanin, 1-3 grain; Soda Salicylate, 10 grains; A powerful alterative and resolvent, glandular and hepatic stimulant, and succedaneum to the iodides. Indicated in all conditions dependent upon perverted tissue metabolism; in lymphatic engorgements and functional viscera disturbances; in lingering rheumatic pains which are "worse at night.” Bone, periosteal and visceral symptoms of late syphilis; for the removal of all inflammatory, plastic and gouty deposits. A remedy in sciatica, megrim, neuralgias, lumbago and muscular pains; the gouty and rheumatic diathesis; acute and chronic rheumatism and gout; chronic eczema and psoriasis, and all dermic disorders in which there is underlying blood taint. An hepatic stimulant increasing the quantity and fluidity of the bile. Relieves hepatic and intestinal torpor; does not cause the unpleasant gastric symptoms of potassium iodide. THREE CHLORIDES HENRY LIQUOR FERRISENIC.—Each dram contains: Proto-Chior. Iron, 1-8 grain; Bi-Chlor. Mercury, 1-128 grain; Chloriae An oxygen-carrying ferruginous preparation, suitable for prolonged treatment of children, adults and the aged. Indicated in anæmia and bodily weakness, convalescence from acute diseases and surgical operations; boys and girls at the age of puberty, and the climacteric period in women. In children with chorea, rickets, or who are backward in development, or in whom there exists an aversion to meats and fats. Prolonged administration never causes iron "headache." As an adjuvant for potassium iodide, the undesirable manifestation known as iodism can be removed. Stimulant to the peptic and hydrochloric glandular system of the stomach, especially serviceable in the impaired appetite, nausea, vomiting and other gastric symptoms of alcoholic subjects. MAIZO-LITHIUM HENRY LIQUOR LITHIUM MAIZENATE.- Nascent Chemic Union of Maizenic Acid—from Green Corn Silk with Lithium, A genito-urinary sedative, an active diuretic; solvent and flush; indicated for the relief and prevention of renal colic; a sedative in the acute stages of gonorrhea, cystitis and epididymitis; in dropsical effusions due to enfeebled heart or to renal diseases. As a solvent in the varied manifestations of gout, goutiness and neurotic lithemia, periodical migrainous headache, epigastric oppression, cardiac palpitation, irregular, weak or intermittent pulse, irritability, moodiness, insomnia and other nervous symptoms of uric-acidemia. Decidedly better, more economical, extensive in action and definite in result, than mineral waters. Those cases of irritable heart, irregular or intermittent pulse so frequently met with by insurance examiners, and found to be due to excess of uric acid, are special indications for Maizo-Lithium. HENRY PHARMACAL CO., Louisville, Ky. First Review Austin's Clinical Chemistry From The New York Medical Journal, March 23, 1907 Manual of Clinical Chemistry. By A. E. AUSTIN, A.B., M.D., Professor of Medical Chemistry and Toxicology in the Medical Department of Tufts College, Boston. Boston: D. C. Heath & Co., 1907. Pp. viii-278. $1.75. This is one of the most satisfactory of the smaller works on medical chemistry that we have yet seen. Beginning with the elements and their combinations, there is unfolded a series of experiments and explanations which make plain the various combinations in the body effected by chemical change. The explanations are of an extremely practical character, and by studying them the practising physician should be enabled to carry out almost any chemical manipulation that may be necessary in the sick room. Although not intended as a manual for the laboratory, it contains much to make it useful as a work of reference. The chapter on the chemistry of the urine, which occupies considerable space in the book, is well written, and is calculated to be of much service to the practitioner who is obliged occasionally to examine the urine himself. The illustrations in this chapter are unusually good, some showing microscope views in colors on heavy glazed paper. This is a work which we are confident will spring into immediate favor. It is of convenient size, a small octavo, and is printed in very readable type on good paper, well sustaining the reputation of the publishers for good press-work and binding. In a fairly careful study of its contents we have found no errors, either of typography or of statement. D. C. HEATH & CO., BOSTON NEW YORK CHICAGO LONDON SERPENTINE SPRING CORSET 12 MADE TO ORDER ONLY For spinal weakness or spinal curvature. Removes the weight of the head and shoulders from the spine, transferring it to the hips. The serpentine springs are quilted between the fabrics. The corset is laced over the hips, then pressed down and slipped under the axillæ, when the lacing is completed. The compression of the springs longitudinally exerts a continual lift to the shoulders, relieves the weight resting upon the vertebræ, and gradually restores a curved spine to its normal position. These springs, while affording the necessary pressure and support, have perfect mobility and do not interfere with respiration. It gives support almost equal to the plaster jacket. It has lightness and flexibility, and in comfort is far ahead. Children who had never learned to walk have been able to do so through its use; and adults previously bed-ridden have been given freedom and activity. Price, $10 to $24.

CABOT'S Case - Teaching in From the March Number of the Medical Times and Hospital Gazette OF LONDON, ENGLAND "We have carefully gone over the majority of Dr. Cabot's cases here presented, and although we do not perhaps always agree with his remarks as to diagnosis and prognosis or even treatment, we have found his book very stimulating reading. After its perusal we can readily imagine that the practitioner who has allowed his methods of physical diagnosis to become somewhat superficial will be urged on to be more careful in his investigations of disease. The majority of the cases discussed are such as occur in everyday practice, and hence the value of the book to the general practitioner will be great. We can think of no better mental exercise after the day's work is done than the study of one of Dr. Cabot's cases. To know these is to possess a new supply of facts which are bound to be of service at some time or other. As a substitute for post-graduate work this volume is sure to become popular. Not every one of us has time or opportunity to study at one of the large teaching centres after we have settled down to the routine of practice. Accordingly, Dr. Cabot's little book will prove a great boon to those of us who wish to keep up to the mark in our professional attainments. "The idea of such a work is quite novel, and on that account the author deserves all the greater credit for having invented it. We trust his efforts will be crowned with success, and that before long he will be enabled to publish a larger volume on the same lines which shall include all the commoner medical diseases. As a work of reference such an expanded edition would prove absolutely indispensable to the up-to-date practitioner. As it is, the work in its present form is admirable so far as it goes, and indeed could not readily be improved on. Meantime we have great pleasure in bringing this book before the notice of readers as a thoroughly practical and stimulating work." BOSTON D. C.
