Philadelphia  Hospital.  • 
P.  S. — Under  the  name,  at  first,  of  "  Mistura  Ferri  Chloridi  Composita,"  the 
above  formula,  in  its  essential  ingredients,  has  been  used  in  the  Philadelphia 
Hospital  since  1875,  and  possibly  earlier.  It  is  thought  to  be  the  original  for- 
mula of  Dr.  W.  K.  Basham,  of  Westminster  Hospital,  London,  and  differs 
radically  from  the  watery  product  of  the  U.  S.  Pharmacopoeia  of  1890  (Liquor 
Ferri  et  Ammonii  Acetatis),  which  represents,  in  each  tablespoonful,  only 
about  5  minims  of  Tincture  of  Ferric  Chloride,  and  48  minims  of  Solution  of 
Ammonium  Acetate.  -  ,
