AMERICA^^  PHARMACEUTICAL  ASSOCIATION. 
The  thirty-sixth  annual  meeting  of  the  American  Pharmaceutical  Asso- 
ciation, will  be  held  in  Detroit,  Michigan,  first  session,  Monday,  September 
3rd,  at  3  P.  M.  Aside  from  the  usual  attractions  presented  by  our  meet- 
ings, preparations  have  been  made  for  our  reception  by  the  pharmacists  of 
Detroit,  matters  both  scientific  and  recreative  being  elaborated  to  an  unusual 
degree. 
The  Michigan  Pharmaceutical  Association  holds  its  annual  meeting 
simultaneously  with  our  own,  and  it  may  safely  be  predicted  that  the  mem- 
bers attending  both  Associations  will  outnumber  any  collection  of  pharma- 
cists in  the  previous  history  of  our  country. 
Full  information  regarding  hotel  and  railway  rates  will  be  furnished  our 
members,  in  the  usual  annual  circular  of  the  permanent  secretary. 
The  Exhibition  promises  to  equal  if  not  surpass  that  of  any  preceding 
period  in  our  history.  Commercial  interests  are  now  recognized  as  a  part 
of  the  object  of  our  meetings,  and  it  is  to  be  presumed  that  extraordinary 
endeavors  will  be  made  to  render  conspicuous  displays  of  commercial  pro- 
ducts. The  local  Secretary,  Mr.  James  Vernor,  235  Woodward  Avenue,  De- 
troit, will  give  information  regarding  matters  connected  therewith. 
Dr.  A.  B.  Lyons,  P.  0.  Box  583,  Detroit,  Secretary  of  Committee  on  Scien- 
tific Papers,  should  receive  the  papers  at  as  early  a  date  as  possible.

President.
