REST AND LET REST. 



This is vacation time — rest and let 

 rest. By no means forget to take some 

 time off. Leave behind the worries of 

 your daily toil, forget the Boylan law, 

 the high price of citric acid, the Board 

 of Pharmacy, the soda fountain and the 

 gas bill. Go out of town for as long a 

 period as you possibly can — remember 

 there is more to the world than the four 

 walls of your drug store ; there are 

 mountains and forests and rivers and 

 lakes, the beautiful seashore, the re- 

 freshing ocean ; they are calling you. Go 

 to them and enjoy yourself. There is no 

 time like the present and you will be a 

 long time dead. Don't fail to take a 

 vacation and when you have returned, 

 strengthened in body and mind, remem- 

 ber that he who took your place and 

 burden is a human being like yourself 

 and let him go on his vacation. Rest 

 and let rest. 



A COMPLIMENT FROM FAR- 

 OFF INDIA. 



MULLER & PHIPPS, 

 Asiatic Selling Organization. 



Madras, India, June 3rd, 1914. 



Dr. Curt P. Wimmer, 



New York City. 

 Dear Sir: 



Allow me to congratulate you on your 

 success as the editor of The New York 

 Journal of Pharmacy. 



The Journal which you are at the 

 present time getting out is very newsy 

 and interesting, and it is with great 

 pleasure that I look forward to receive 

 the monthly edition which is forwarded 

 to me from Bombay while I am travel- 

 ling around Asiatic Countries. 



Trusting that you will keep up the 

 good work, I am 



Yours sincerely,

 (As a rule we carefully refrain from 

 printing complimentary notes sent to us. 

 We do not believe in a "bouquet" col- 

 umn, but we gladly print the above letter

 Journal is successful in its mission not 

 alone in the U. S., but also in the other 

 half of the globe.) 



VARIOUS IMPRESSIONS OF THE 

 SARATOGA MEETING. 



Harmony seemed to be the key-note 

 of the meeting, even the proposed Com- 

 missioner of Pharmacy, who mixed up 

 things for a few minutes, went peace- 

 fully back into committee. 



Thanks of all of the pharmacists of 

 the Empire State are due to the Legisla- 

 tive Committee. We hope sincerely that 

 the publication of the proposed Boylan 

 law and the Boylan law as it was passed 

 will act as an eye-opener and show what 

 this committee has accomplished. 



The priests and laundrymen had their 

 conventions at the same hotel and at the 

 same time. We have not heard of any- 

 one of us being mistaken for a priest, 

 but it was different with the laundry- 

 men. We looked almost as prosperous 

 as they did. 



Grape Juice was served in the hotel 

 corridor free of charge. Strange to say, 

 a certain room in the basement where 

 drinks were dispensed and charged for 

 seemed to be more popular. 



Full dress was the order for the Presi- 

 dent's reception. Those of us who hod
