No. 5. ORGANIC CHEMISTRY. 



Or the Chemistry of the Carbon Compounds. By Prof. 

 VICTOR VON RICHTER, University of Breslau. Au- 

 thorized translation, from the Fourth German Edition. 

 By EDGAR F. SMITH, M.A., PH.D. ; Prof, of Chemistry 

 in University of Pennsylvania; Member of the Chem. 

 Socs. of Berlin and Paris. 



" I must say that this standard treatise is here presented in a 

 remarkably compendious shape." y. W. Holland ,iA.i>. t Professor 

 of Chemistry, Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia. 



" This work brings the whole matter, in simple, plain language, 

 to the student in a clear, comprehensive manner. The whole 

 method of the work is one that is more readily grasped than that of 

 older and more famed text-books, and we look forward to the time 

 when, to a great extent, this work will supersede others, on the 

 score of its better adaptation to the wants of both teacher and 

 student." Pharmaceutical Record. 



"Prof, von Richter's work has the merit of being singularly 

 clear, well arranged, and for its bulk, comprehensive. Hence, it 

 will, as we find it intimated in the preface, prove useful not merely 

 as a text-book, but as a manual of reference." The Chemical 

 News, London.

SECOND EDITION. 



A Manual. By J. F. GOODHART, M.D., Phys. to the 

 Evelina Hospital for Children ; Asst. Phys. to 

 Guy's Hospital, London. Second American Edition. 

 Edited and Rearranged by Louis STARR, M.D., Clinical

 of over 50 Formulae, conforming to the U. S. Pharma- 

 copoeia, and Directions for making Artificial Human 

 Milk, for the Artificial Digestion of Mirk, etc. Illus. 



" The author has avoided the not uncommon error of writing a 

 book on general medicine and labeling it ' Diseases of Children/ 

 but has steadily kept in view the diseases which seemed to be 

 incidental to childhood, or such points in disease as appear to be so 

 peculiar to or pronounced in children as to justify insistence upon 

 them. * * * A safe and reliable guide, and in many ways 

 admirably adapted to the wants of the student and practitioner." 

 American Journal of Medical Science.
