lanse  hydrosus,  cinnamomum  saigonicum,  convallaria,  eucalyptol,  hydrastininae 
hydrochloras,  hyoscinse  hydrobromas,  menthol,  naphthalinum,  physostigminse 
sulphas,  pyrogallol,  resorcinum,  salol,  sparteines  sulphas,  strontium  salts,  stro- 
phantus, Terebenum  and  terpini  hydras.  Another  change  which  strikes  one 
more  forcibly  than  all  others  is  the  discarding  of  parts  by  weight  and  the  sub- 
stitution of  the  metric  system  to  express  the  idea  of  liquids  by  measures  and 
solids  by  weight.  The  printing  and  further  make-up  of  the  book  is  good.  A 
beginning  of  a  thorough  review  will  be  found  on  another  page.
