These  new  pills  and  granules  are  the  only  real  improvement  made  in  pills  for  many 
years.  While  they  are  a  novelty,  their  principal  claim  to  superiority  lies  in  the 
fact  that  they  have  undoubted  advantages  over  all  other  pills,  and  are  at  once  the 
perfection  of  accuracy,  and  a*  safeguard  against  mistakes  or  substitu- 
tion. Their  claim  to  the  confidence  of  the  medical  profession  and  pharmacists  rest, 
on  the  entire  purity  of  the  ingredients  used ;  perfect  accuracy  of  com- 
position and  uniformity  of  size ;  ready  solubility ;  tastelessness  and 
harmlessness  of  the  coating",  which  is  vegetable  ;  perfect  preservation  in 
all  climates ;  entire  security  against  mistakes  or  substitution,  every 
pill  or  granule  having  printed  upon  its  surface  either  its  common  name  or  its 
composition,  as  Pil.  Cath.  comp.,  or  Pil.  Quin.  i  grain.
