considerable expense. To overcome this lack of efficient medi¬ 
cation, the Abbott Alkaloidal Company, of Ravenswood Station, 
Chicago, have introduced to the veterinary profession a series 
of popular alkaloids and concentrated medicines in granule and 
tablet form which are a real boon to the canine prescribes 
They can be carried in a neat little pocket case in sufficient 
variety to meet the demands of almost every kind of case; a 
dose may be administered by the practitioner at the time of his 
visit as an object lesson to the person whose duty it will be to 
continue them, and, by charging a reasonable price for them a 
profit will fall to the veterinarian instead of the druggist. They 
advertise these tablets elsewhere in the Review, and offer to 
supply veterinarians with samples for trial. We think their re¬ 
liability and facility of administration will commend them to 
those whose practices bring them many of the smaller animals 
to treat.
