in the past, since it will enable them to supply their trade with 
the higher solutions of hydrogen peroxide, and especially that 
preparation of Marchand’s, for which the stopper was particu¬ 
larly designed, u hydrozone,” which carries 30 volumes of oxygen. 
The device described above—the automatic safety-valve 
stopper—having entirely obviated the danger arising from the ex¬ 
plosion of bottles in handling, there is certain to be a largely in¬ 
creased demand for Marchand’s concentrated solutions of the per¬ 
oxide of hydrogen (which alone will be corked with the patented 
stopper), since physicians anxious to obtain quick results will 
never prescribe anything but the most active solutions, or those 
richest in active oxygen, and since druggists will be protected 
absolutely against loss by deterioration or explosion. The med¬ 
ical profession is being thoroughly advised of Mr. Marchand’s 
new method of closing his bottles of “ peroxide of hydrogen 
medicinal ” and u hydrozone,” and will be certain to avail them¬ 
selves of the advantages thus guaranteed them.—(April, 1901,

Dr. Wm. Herbert Rowe, chairman of the Committee of Ar¬ 
rangements, advises us that the committee has selected the Ru¬ 
dolf Hotel at Atlantic City as the meeting place and headquar¬ 
ters for the convention of 1901. “The Rudolf” is located on 
the ocean front and is well adapted for our purposes. The As¬ 
sembly Hall in the Rudolf is light and well ventilated. It is 
away from the noise of the ocean , and is quiet and suitable. 
The management of the Rudolf Hotel at Atlantic City offers 
the Committee of Arrangements, American Veterinary Medical 
Association, space at the rear of the hotel to erect a tent and 
construct seats where the surgical clinic may be held. This is 
considered by the committee to be a good location and offers the 
advantage of being convenient to the headquarters. 
A letter from Secretary Stewart, dated June 24, contains 
the following outline of the arrangements to that date : The 
programme for the Atlantic City meeting is gradually being 
completed, and the following papers have been promised, with 
several more under consideration :
