54 AIDS TO THE STUDY OF PHARMACOGNOSY. 
references may furthermore be found in the previously cited 
(p. 51, under H), ‘* Pharmacognosie,” by Fliickiger (especially 
pages 983-1022), and in the ‘‘ Pharmacographia.” A manu- 
script bibliography of pharmacy by Piper has been preserved by 
the Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain in London since 
1883. 
L. That valuable aids to the study of pharmacognosy are con- 
tained in the various scientific journals and in monographs 
needs scarcely to be mentioned. In Germany, even previ- 
ous to the year 1825, the Archiv des Apotheker-Vereins im 
nordlichen Teutschland inaugurated the stately series of volumes 
of the present Archiv der Pharmacie, while many other German 
professional journals have since ceased to exist. In Paris, the 
Journal de Pharmacie et de Chimie has likewise appeared regu- 
larly since that time. In England, Jacob Bell, who rendered 
such valuable service to English pharmacy (1810-1859), issued 
in July, 1841, the first number of the “Transactions of 
the Pharmaceutical Meetings,” which now, under the title of 
The Pharmaceutical Journal and Transactions, continually pre- | 
sents a rich supply of pharmacognostical information, com- 
mensurate with the commercial status of England. The Amert- 
can Journal of Pharmacy, in Philadelphia, stands already 
in its fifty-eighth year of publication. 
The “ Annual Reports,” finally, summarize all that is of value 
in current literature. Thus, in Germany, the ‘‘ Jahresbericht 
der Pharmacie,” which was begun in 1841 by Theodore Martius 
(1795-1863), and continued by Wiggers from 1844 to 1865. In 
1866, Theodore Husemann, together with Wiggers, undertook 
its elaboration, and from 1867 to 1873 August Husemann was 
associated with them. In 1874, Dragendorff took the place of 
Theodore Husemann, and continued the “Jahresbericht” until 
1878, when, in 1879, Marmé and Wulfsberg associated them- 
selves with him. The ‘ Bericht” of 1880 was edited by the 
latter, and the two following by Beckurts. A similar service 
has been rendered in England by the ‘‘ Yearbook of Pharmacy,” 
which has been issued since 1870, and much more punctually 
than the German “ Bericht,” by the British Pharmaceutical
