It has been used in the relief of matism and neuralgic pains, and in the treatment of the sequelae of alcoholic excess. AMMONOL se prepared in the form of salicylate, bromide and lithiate. The presence of Ammonia, in a e or less free state, gives it additional properties as an expectorant, diuretic, and corrective in eracidity.-London Lancet. The. Stimulant MONOL is one of the derivatives of Coal-tar. and differs from the numerous similar products in that it contains Ammonia in active form. As a result of this, AMMONOL posssesses marked stimulating and expectorant properties. The well known cardiac depression induced by other Antipyretics has frequently prohibited their use in otherwise suitable cases. The introduction of a similar drug, possesed of stimulating properties, is an event of much importance.

Various Neuroses of the Larynx In a "Note on Codeine," in the Lancet, Dr. James Braithwaite, of Leeds, says: "Codeine seems to have a special action upon the nerves of the larynx; hence it relieves a tickling cough better than any ordinary form of opium. One-half of a grain may be given half an hour before bedtime. It was in my own case that I first began to use codeine. For more than twenty years, usually once every winter, I have been seized with a spasmodic cough just before going to sleep, which becomes so severe that I am compelled to get up and sit by the fire. After an hour or two I return to bed and am free from the cough till the next winter. In other respects I enjoy good health. Many years ago I found that one-half grain of codeine, taken about two hours before bedtime, absolutely stops the attack and leaves no unpleasant effect the next morning. In cases of vomiting from almost any cause, one-quarter grain doses of codeine usually answer exceedingly well. In the milder forms of diarrhoea one-half to one grain of the drug usually answers most satisfactorily, and there are no unpleasant after-effects. We find, however, that where there is great pain, the analgesic effect of codeine may not be sufficient, and a combination with anti kamnia is required. It is best given in grains antikamnia and 4 grain code form of a tablet, the proportions being Sometimes chronic neuroses may be cur. by breaking the continuity of the pain, which purpose we have found this com nation peculiarly suited. Clinical reports in great numbers are be received from many sections of this count which, while verifying Dr. Braithwai observations as to the value of code place even a more exalted value upon advisability of always combining it w antikamnia in treatment of any neuroses the larynx, coughs, bronchial affection excessive vomiting, milder forms of d. rhea, as well as chronic neuroses; !! therapeutical value of both being enhare! by combination.

Prof. Adolph Sommer's discovery that Benzo Sulphinide or Saccharine is soluble in oils has enabled us issue a Castor Oil which is literally as palatable as hone Laxol is nothing more nor less than a superior quality cold-pressed Castor Oil, sweetened with saccharine and fla vored with Oil of Peppermint. It tastes very much lik Syrup of Peppermint, and children will be found to take readily. We are anxious that every physician should b familiar with Laxol, and upon application, will gladly sen a bottle to physicians in regular practice who will will pay ex press charges.
