THE AMERICAN Correspondence School of Nurses In the towns, hamlets and country places, there is A GREAT SCARCITY OF TRAINED NURSES. There are hundreds of physicians in these isolated localities who are deprived of the assistance that a trained nurse would afford them. In these towns there are to be found a number of GOOD YOUNG WOMEN who have THE QUALITIES OF A NURSE, but who are obliged to fill the duties of a nurse without training, because training is not accessible. Our school makes the technical knowledge of training immediately accessible to these women. We give a complete course in all the branches essential,--more comprehensive even than that insisted upon by the usual training school. We secure the services of a physician in her town and advise him concerning the PRACTICAL TRAINING that he is to give her in conjunction with our lectures. In addition to this, we are so situated that we give these nurses, who so desire it, SIX MONTHS HOSPITAL TRAINING. We grant no diplomas until this is acquired. NO ONE IS MORE DIRECTLY INTERESTED IN THIS THAN THE PHYSICIAN. He can call the attention of all untrained nurses in his locality to our institution, and by writing us directly can assist us materially in the bedside training of these nurses. Write us for full particulars and our handsome illustrated announcement. This is the pioneer school in this branch of training. Suite 750 Crilly Bldg., Chicago, Ill.

ALKALOMETRY (ALKALOIDAL MEDICATION) NO MONOPOLY BUT DON'T LET OUR IMITATORS DECEIVE YOU THE SOLUTION OF THE PROPRIETARY QUESTION IS THE USE OF THE ALKALOIDS ACTIVE-PRINCIPLE THERAPY There is no monopoly upon the active principles. Everything is, technically, wide open. Every druggist in the United States may, if he can, make and supply them without paying any one for the priv ilege. In fact, every large manufacturer of pills and tablets in the world now carries many or a few of these agents upon his list. Nevertheless, physicians should not fall into the error of supposing that even these agents from different houses are invariably alike because their mere names are identical. On the contrary, there is an enormous and dangerous variability in many of these preparations as presented, by different manufacturers, for the use of the physician. In the W-A Text-Book of Alkaloidal Therapeutics, page 2, are mentioned five aconitines, whose total daily doses vary from gr. 1-20 to 15 grains, while aconitine, A. A. Co. (standard) is usually (and always safely and efficiently) given in doses of gr. 1-134 frequently repeated till the desired effect is produced. The Abbott Alkaloidal Co. makes it its business to secure or make the best preparations which it is possible to obtain, to secure or make these always of exactly the same strength, and to put them up and out in exactly the same way; and that is why "Abbott quality" is not approached by any of our imitators. For instance: Of many millions of aconitine granules sent out during the past ten years no two lots have ever been found to differ in strength. This result is obtained by the care taken to secure the alkaloids in exactly the same form, and from the same manufacturers, and by the continuous employment of specially-skilled operatives to prepare them in granules and tablets that are just right. As an example of the care which is taken to secure quality, we buy especially purified sulphocarbolates for that "Prince of Specialties," the "W-A Intestinal Antiseptic," by the ton, and pay far more than the ordinary market price for commercial goods. That's why our sulphocarbolates are just right. This is but one instance of many in which the question of cost is not considered, as it never is by us, where quality is in question. For these reasons, we invariably decline to enter into a contest over prices. There are other things more important to the physician than cheapness, and among these absolute certainty as to quality and strength (absolute dependability) is not the least. Of course, if one were to go into the open market and buy the cheapest thing offered under the same name, as many do, and employ the cheapest labor to work this material up into granules, a considerable reduction might be made in prices, but what do you get for the risk you run? Good drugs are cheap enough. Nothing is too good for the doctor. Our goods are right-right from start to finish. If you are interested write and say so, mentioning this advertisement. -SAMPLES AND LITERATURE FOR THE ASKING THE ABBOTT ALKALOIDAL CO.
