ber  of  salts  were  used,  and  in  small  doses  were  found  to  have  no 
influence ;  in  large  doses  the  secretion  was  diminished.  Thus  the 
beneficial  effect  of  such  waters  as  Carlsbad,  in  liver  disease,  must 
not  be  ascribed  to  a  cholagogue  action,  but  simply  to  lessened 
secretion. 
MINUTE  OF  COLLEGE  MEETING. 
Philadelphia,  September  29,  1890. 
A  stated  meeting  of  members  of  the  College  was  held  this  day,  Charles  Bul- 
lock presiding.  The  minute  of  the  last  stated  meeting  being  read,  was,  on 
motion,  adopted.  The  minute  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  for  June  was  read  and 
approved.  The  report  of  the  Delegates  from  this  College  to  the  Meeting  of 
the  American  Pharmaceutical  Association,  recently  held  at  Old  Point  Comfort, 
Va.,  was  made  verbally  by  Prof.  Remington,  as  follows  : 
"  The  meeting  was  well  attended.  The  number  present  was  probably  aug- 
mented by  the  fact  that  the  preceding  meeting  had  been  held  on  the  Pacific, 
and  many  were  debarred  from  maintaining  an  annual  attendance.  The  pres- 
ence of  a  number  of  the  earlier  and  older  members  was  a  noticeable  feature. 
Our  local  and  individual  pride  was  greatly  honored  in  the  selection  of  Mr. 
Alfred  B.  Taylor,  of  this  city,  as  the  presiding  officer.  Much  interest  was 
manifested  in  the  proceedings  and  in  the  work  of  the  various  sections  of  the 
organization.  An  event  of  much  interest  to  pharmacists,  and  a  result  of  a 
formation  of  a  committee  of  the  pharmaceutical  body  upon  the  mutual  relations 
of  druggists  and  physicians,  is  the  fact  of  the  American  Medical  Association 
constituting  a  section  on  pharmacy,  and  extending  an  invitation  to  the  American 
Pharmaceutical  Association  to  send  as  representatives  to  their  body  at  their 
annual  meeting  in  1891,  at  Washington,  twenty-five  pharmacists  to  consider  and 
confer  upon  these  relations." 
The  President  announced  the  death  of  William  C.  Henszey,  of  the  firm  of 
Carpenter,  Henszey  &  Co.,  of  this  city,  and  a  member  of  this  College.  The  sub- 
ject was,  on  motion,  referred  to  the  Committee  on  Deceased  Members,  with  a 
view  to  the  preparation  of  a  memoir. 
Mr.  Bullock  read  a  memoir  on  the  death  and  personal  history  of  Samuel  S. 
Bunting,  formerly  Treasurer  of  this  College  (see  October  number  of  Amer. 
Jour.  Phabm.). 
The  terms  of  A.  P.  Brown,  Daniel  S.  Jones  and  H.  Trimble,  Trustees,  expir- 
ing with  this  date,  and  the  demise  of  S.  S.  Bunting  having  created  a  vacancy  in 
the  Board  of  Trustees,  it  was,  on  motion,  resolved  to  proceed  to  an  election  to 
fill  these  several  places.  The  Tellers  appointed  by  the  chair,  Messrs.  Boring 
and  Krewson,  announced  the  result  to  be  as  follows  : 
Trustees  for  three  years,  Albert  P.  Brown,  Daniel  S.  Jones,  Henry  Trimble. 
Trustees  for  unexpired  term  of  Samuel  S.  Bunting,  deceased,  William  N. 
Stem. 
On  motion  the  meeting  adjourned. 
William  B.  Thompson,  Secretary.
