Acetic Acid as a Solvent. — Acid acetic as a menstruum for the exhaus- 

 tion of crude drugs has at this time become such a widely observed fact that 

 it seems quite reasonable to assume that such a use of this agent has become 

 established and will be generally recognized after all have tried and ex- 

 perimented with it. Dtiring the past year the list of drugs which have 

 been thoroughly exhausted by this agent has very markedly increased, 

 and it may be well to enumerate here those drugs which have been act- 

 ually tried on a larger scale than experimentally. They are the follow- 

 ing : Aconite root, Allspice, Arnica root. Belladonna leaf. Belladonna 

 root, Black pepper, Buchu, Buckthorn, Burdock, Cannabis indica, Capsi-
