The City of Morile an'd the Conti(;uous Country Af?(.>ut the Gulf 

 Coast. 



Dr. William H. Anderson, M. D., First Vice-President of the 

 American Medical Association, has put out a bright, racy i)amphlet, 

 urging the claims of Mobile as a fine resort for invalids and others 

 from northern climates. A carefully arranged meteorological table 

 is also printed with it. It is evident that the doctor thinks Mobile 

 cjuite the center of the world, and we are not prepared to dispute 

 him.

 D. D. S., Buffalo. N. Y. 



This paper was read before the American Dental Association 

 at Cincinnati, Ohio, in August la.st, and seemed so broad in its 

 scope that it was asked for publication. It assumed to treat of the 

 relation of force to matter, as considered in connection with nervous 

 energy. That is original and well put.

The cuts are so fine and all separate parts are so nicely shown, 

 with prices attached, that one could buy an instrument with safety 

 by simply consulting this book. The firm is reliable and prompt, 

 as the good work done by their instruments well attests.
