 Solutions of Ammonia should be kept in a cool place in tightly 

 stoppered containers. One preparation should not be sold for 

 the other, and care should be taken that the preparations are 

 ■labeled according to the Pharmacopoeia name. In the purchase 

 of this as well as of other drugs a written guarantee should be 

 obtained from the dealer, unless the goods are guaranteed under 

 the National Food and Drugs Act and carry a serial number. 

 The table which follows gives the results of the examinations 

 of the samples purchased. Keeping in mind the fact that Am- 

 monia Water should carry 10 per cent of gaseous Ammonia the 

 table is self explanatory.
