'93 NOTES. 



The three Musketeers of the " Mot tar 

 and Pestle, " L,. Meighan, J. Garchow 

 and R. Sehaaf are in business at 615 

 Courtland ave., 2d ave. and 45th st., 

 and 798 8th ave. respectively. Their 

 friendship is of the lasting kind, a sort 

 of a triple Orest and Philades. 



Bill Finnegan, or, "to give the 

 devil his due," Mr. William Finnegan, 

 chemist and pharmacist of Elizabeth, N. 

 J., is the happy father of an eighteen 

 month old baby-girl, Irene. 



The class prophet E. F. Lohr is still 

 with H. Diestel & Son at 28th st. and 3d 

 ave. He looks more and more like Bill 

 Nye, the humorist. 



There are rumors that Ira Hopkins, 

 at present clerking at Ithaca, N. Y., is 

 engaged to a young lady whom he met 

 while at college. Who is she, Ira? Don't 

 be bashful — " there are others." 



W. Reuswig, the nightingale of the 

 class, took part in a church entertain- 

 ment at Somerville, N. J., where he is 

 with Field. It is said that his singing 

 combined with good looks and appealing 

 gestures, touched the hearts of his hear- 

 ers, particularly one fair lady. Can you 

 blame her ? 



Beau-Brummel Frishbier and J. 

 Horni are studying medicine at the Long 

 Island Hospital College. 



B. Schriner and J. Powers are in the 

 classic town of Plainfield, N. J. (It's on 

 the map of the U. S.) They hope to 

 meet many of the boys at the coming 

 commencement exercises to give at least 

 one good long '9,5 cry, a cry so well 

 known and beloved (?) by the faculty. 



Cubbit is at the head of the prescrip- 

 tion department at Hegeman's (corpora- 

 tion) on lower Broadway. He occupies 



the position with honor to himself and 

 the class. 



James Wilson, of Brooklyn, is man- 

 aging A. L,. Goldwater's Willis ave. 

 store at 230 Willis ave., New York. 



I do hope the old class will be well 

 represented at commencement. 



Come boys ? Bring your sweethearts 

 with you and let's have a reunion ! Will 

 you come, boys ? 



Will you subscribe to The Alumni 

 Journal and help the '93 column along ?

'94 NOTES. 



With the examination so close upon them, 

 it was rather surprising to find such a large at- 

 tendance of both Seniors and Juniors at Dr. 

 Gallant's lecture. However, I presume this 

 condition of affairs may be attributed to their 

 interest in tbe treatment of such cases, as they, 

 as pharmacists, are likely to be called upon to 

 temporarily officiate. 



In the city, where physicians are so numer- 

 ous, such knowledge is seldom put into prac- 

 tice, but in remote districts a pharmacist with 

 First Aid experience is considered an indispen- 

 sible requisite. In fact, the saving of many 

 lives has been due to prompt and efficient ser- 

 vice thus rendered, before the physician has 

 arrived to take charge of the case. In covering 

 this ground various manceuvers, such as af- 

 fixing splints, uses of the von Esmarch band- 

 age, treatment of wounds, sprains, etc., were 

 explained in detail. The utility of a mixture 

 of Peru balsam and castor oil for cuts and burns 

 (not Byrnes) was advocated by the learned gen- 

 tleman. A prescription with the proper pro- 

 portions (30 grs. to 3) was given to each per- 

 son present, as a souvenir, so that the "bal- 

 sam and oil " treatment bids fair to become a 

 popular one, for a time, at least. 



Under such captions as "Drug Clerks in 

 Trouble," " Knock out Drop Sellers Arrested," 

 etc., Col. Wade has figured conspicuously as a 

 participant. In a recent interview with the 

 colonel he expressed himself as surprised at 

 the audacity of officials who, seemingly ignor- 

 ant of the regulations regarding the sales of 

 poisons, sought gore at his expense. 



It seems that the captain of the precinct be-
