The Physician Himself and What He Should Add to His Scientific 

 Acquirements. By D. W. Cathell, M. D., Baltimore, Md. Third 

 edition, revised. Cushings & Bailey, Publishers, Baltimore. Price, $1.25. 



Two large editions of 6,000 copies have been exhausted in a 

 remarkably short time, and the third edition is before us. We are 

 now sure that six thousand medical men are wiser than they were 

 two years ago. How it must make some of the old fogies squirm to 

 read such a live, modern book! We hope Dr. Cathell will live to 

 see at least sixty thousand copies of his book sold, one copy to each 

 physician in the United States. 



Alumni Address. By Rev. M. S. Hard, Elmira, N. Y., President of the 

 Alumni Association of Syracuse University. 



The address is written in Mr. Hard's happiest style, and is 

 filled with rare aphorisms. His addresses are always short but full 

 of deep interest. His sentences are concise but of intense meaning 

 and breadth of thought. 



"The knowledge a man is forced to gain, he receives no credit 

 tor acquiring." 



" Trusteeship is only representation, it does not indicate owner- 

 ship." 



"Money is badly, when ignorantly given." 



" Simply to use a thing, for what you can get out of it, breeds 

 no love." 



" A wealthy minister is sought by managers of every menage- 

 rie." 



"The Century." April, 18S3. Union Square, New York City. 



The April number of this welcome visitor is unusually replete 

 with good things. "The Capitol at Washington" is superbly illus- 

 trated and will be perused with interest. The engravings are 

 numerous and very fine. We note especially the one "At Sea," 

 drawn with the graver by Kingsley. Each number of "The 

 Century" seems perfect, yet the one to follow will always be better. 



The American Journal of Physiology. 



This journal started some six months ago and it now looks as 

 if it had come to stay. Prominent men have promised to give it 

 their support and we wish everybody would endorse it by sending 

 $1.50 to the editor, D. H. Fernandes, M. D., Indianapolis, Ind.
