A JUST DECREE.

At a Special Term, Part II., of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, held at the Court House in the County of New York, on May 6, 1904. Hon. Henry Bischoff, Justice, rendered the following decree. It needs no comment at our hands, only we would like to see a little more of like character.

"Ordered, Adjudged, and Decreed as follows: First: That the plaintiff, The M. J. Breitenbach Company, is the owner of the sole and exclusive right to the use of the words 'Pepto-Mangan' as a trade mark and trade name, as applied to medical preparations, throughout the United States and Canada, and has the sole and exclusive right in the same countries, of putting up and selling the preparation known as Gude's 'Pepto-Mangan,' according to the secret process and formula discovered by Dr. A. Gude, of Leipsic. Second: That the said defendants the Siegel, Cooper Company and Thomas, H. McInnerney, their agents, servants, employees, and attorneys, be and they hereby are forever enjoined and restrained from making use of the words 'Pepto-Manganate' in any manner whatsoever, either alone or in combination with other words, or from using the words 'PeptoMangan,' or any word or words similar to the words 'Pepto-Mangan' in sound or appearance, in connection with the advertisement or sale or otherwise, of any medical or other preparation-excepting only that of the plaintiff. Third: That the said defendants the Siegel, Cooper Company and Thomas H. McInnerney forwith deliver to the plaintiff, or its attorney, to be destroyed, all bottles, packages, wrappers, circulars, or other things in their possession or under their control, or that of either of them,

bearing the words 'Pepto-Manganate,' or any similar words. Fourth: That the said plaintiff the M. J. Breitenbach Company recover of the said defendants the Siegel, Cooper Company and Thomas H. McInnerney the damages, to be assessed by the Court, resulting from the use by the said defendants of the name 'Pepto-Manganate,' which is hereby adjudged to be a violation of the plaintiff's rights in the name 'Pepto-Mangan.' Fifth: That the plaintiff recover from the said defendants the costs of this action."

TYREE'S ANTISEPTIC COMPOUND:- This is a powder which combines strong antiseptic powers with an exceptionably agreeable odour. It is composed of borate of sodium, albumen, carbolic acid and glycerine together with the crystalized principles of thyme, eucalyptus, gaultheria, and mentha. It is used (in the proportion of a heaped teaspoonful to a pint of warm water) for local application to wounds and sores, for cleansing discharging mucous membranes and for disinfecting the upper air passages in catarrhal states. Although it has this very wide sphere of usefulness it has been found to have an almost specific influence upon morbid conditions of the genito-urinary tracts. Gonorrhoea, Leuchorrhoea, and Pruritis due to irritating discharges in women speedily yield to it, and as being practically non-poisonous, it has great advantages over those substances similarly used which, though of acknowledged efficacy, are nevertheless in the hands of the ignorant by no means free from danger. Its very agreeable odour will recommend it to many for use as any ordinary domestic antiseptic powder in substitution for the crude preparations which are not generally employed for this purpose. Reprinted from Chrystie's Monthly, London, England.

VIN MARIANI is a proprietary preparation only in name. It stands for originality and reliability, representing just what it is claimed to be. Perfection is attained under expert possibilities with machinery which is the outgrowth of long years of specialism confined exclusively to Coca products. Numerous endorsements, from physicians in various parts of the world who are using Vin Mariani in daily practice, praise its unique qualities as a tonic and restorer of nervous and muscular strength. Vin Mariani was used by the profession fully twenty years before cocaine was known in medicine. In fact, through this preparation physicians were made familiar with the properties of Coca, and this was the original and only available form of employing the remedy. The popularity of Vin Mariani has led imitators to foister upon the profession artificial substances concocted by adding cocaine to wine. Such base frauds masquerading as Coca Wine-a title originated by M. Mariani-have done grave evil and tend to unjustly cause condemnation of all Coca preparations as but false products.

HYSTERIA is the expression of one form of nervous debility. Celerina is thus peculiarly indicated because of its tonic effect on the whole nervous system.

FAULTY ELIMINATION is a prolific source of trouble and the.cause of many distressing symptoms pointing to no definite lesion, but complicating and obscuring the actual symptoms of a real disease. Such a condition is puzzling to the doctor and discouraging to the patient, often causing dissatisfaction with the treatment and lack of confidence in the physician, yet the whole train of symptoms may be only the result of a lowering in the tone of the secretory organs and the retention of poisonous material in the system. In all conditions which follow as a result of the blocking of the eliminative organs, such as colds, bronchial catarrh, la grippe, pneumonia and autotoxia, one of the first indications is to bring the eliminating organs up to the normal and put them in condition to perform their natural duty. A large proportion of the cases which doctors are called upon to treat during the winter and in the spring are furnished by neglected colds and after effects of la grippe. These uncured affections keep the system open to new attacks, the patient develops a bronchitis, or pneumonia, the kidneys are affected and sometimes left permanently weakened. A cold is by no means a simple affair which, left to itself, will always speedily get well. The acute stage will probably spend itself, and the patient may think he is free from further trouble, but such attacks render him more liable to further infection, and pneumonia, chronic bronchitis, and chronic kidney disease are some of the sequelæ of frequent colds. Therefore, these apparently harmless colds are to be taken seriously and cured absolutely as soon as possible. To cut short these attacks and restore the tissues to normal powers of resistance the Dad Chemical Co., of New York commend Respiton. It contains asclepias tuberosa and berberis. A teaspoonful in a glass of hot water every two hours will effect a complete cure in a few days. Interstate Medical Journal, April, 1904.

ENURESIS, GLEET, and Irritable ProstatE.-Dr. N. S. Wood, Anderson, Ind., says, “I find that Satyria is a most excellent tonic and reconstructive remedy. I find it very useful in children's diseases, especially in enuresis it is fine." July 24, 1903.

THE MODIFICATION OF Cow's MILK.-Looking at the analyses of milk, it would seem that a small addition of water to cow's milk brings it down to human milk; while some contend for a small addition of sugar. Nor need necessarily the sugar be cane sugar; a little maltose is easily procurable as in Mellin's Food for instance. The advantage of malt sugar in whatever form to the milk is that malt sugar rather undergoes lactic acid fermentation, while cane sugar undergoes acetous fermentation — and acetic acid is far more irritant than lactic acid, whether free or in combination with a base.-Fothergill's "Manual of Dietetics."

CHOLERA INFANTUM-When an internal mucus astringent is indicated, in such cases as Cholera Infantum, etc., Kennedy's dark pinus canadensis should be given in an alkaline medium.

THE PAIN IN RHEUMATIC GOUT.-Chas. P. Heil, M. D., late Professor of Anatomy, Indiana College of Medicine, Indianapolis, Ind., in the Mobile Medical and Surgical Journal says: "Many of the cases of rheumatic gout which I have treated were of an obstinate and complicated character and I must state that I myself have been suffering with an attack in the nature of a very severe inflammatory condition, situated in and over the articulations of my wrist, knee, and ankle joints. The pain which I suffered most of the time was indescribable. I placed myself under the care of a physician, who, upon examination, pronounced me also slightly affected with cardiac trouble. I suffered the most excruciating pain for ten days and nights, without alleviation of my sufferings, nor apparent signs of progress for the better. Knowing full well the efficiency and value of Antikamnia Tablets in these cases, I took two tablets and about ten minutes after taking them the pain was relieved, I perspired slightly and then fell into a gentle sleep. The result was simply magical. I slept eight hours in perfect rest, free from all pain. I continued the two tablets every four hours during my convalescence and until complete recovery."

THE SIXTH ANNUAL MEETING OF THE AMERICAN PROCTOLOGIC SOCIETY will be held at Seaside Home, Atlantic City, June 8th and 9th, inst.
