Vol. 1 appeared June 1887, and the last number was no. 4, vol. 3 December

 much as it reprinted old texts, e.g., treatises of Cullen on the Peruvian Bark ( 1789). 

 or a curious treatise on the tobacco written by T. Venner in 1637, etc.; but the old 

 material was used as a bait for gaining respectabihty and a good sale of advertising- 

 space. Quack medical history! (C. F. M.)
