This new edition has been very thoroughly revised, important additions have been incorporated,-including a chapter on military surgery,-many of the old illustrations have been recut, and about one hundred new figures added.

Our claim that Moullin's Surgery is the best text-book for the student and general work of reference for the practitioner is based upon the reviews of a large number of journals that have pronounced it eminently practical, and upon the fact that so many teachers have seen fit to recommend it. But beyond this we may say that broad principles are stated in a clear, authoritative manner, that the relative value of the different subjects has been carefully considered, and that about the whole there is an air of responsibility that renders plain the fact that the author knows whereof he speaks, not only from his own experience, but from a large acquaintance with American. and foreign literature. There is also a uniformity of style, an elegance of diction, that attracts and interests the reader, while it makes plain the subject under discussion.

A complete circular, with sample pages, press notices, etc., will be sent free upon application.

ANNOUNCEMENT.

The importance of the local application of simple remedies in slight ailments of special organs is not always realized by the general practitioner, and the average text-book omits altogether any mention of many agents that in the hands of the specialist become valuable aids to cure. The diseases which chiefly require local treatment are those of the Respiratory Passages, Ear, Eye, Skin, together with certain general Surgical affections, including the Diseases of Women. In order, therefore, that the various uses of each remedy should be thoroughly set forth, it was necessary to have a combination of authors who have had a large practical experience in these various branches of Medicine and Surgery.

Each remedy is taken up in alphabetical order, and after a succinct description of its pharmaceutical properties is considered with reference to the local treatment of the affections above outlined. The publishers believe that the information contained in this work will not be found elsewhere, as much of it is the results obtained in private and hospital practice, by eminent professors and specialists. The activity in the various lines of special medicine is one of the most striking phases of the times, and has materially changed many of the older methods of treating disease by local means. The greater part of the literature which has appeared is not accessible to most physicians. This HANDBOOK, it is believed, will be of value to general practitioners as well as to those who, like the authors, are especially interested in subdivisions of the clinical field.

The work forms a compact octavo volume, arranged in a manner to facilitate reference, and contains, besides the usual index, a complete index of diseases, that will greatly enhance its usefulness.

"The fact that this Visiting List has been published annually for forty years is sufficient guarantee of its excellence and popularity. In addition to the visiting list proper, it contains easily-accessible suggestions upon many of the emergencies that may arise in a physician's practice, as when he is too far from home to learn from his text-books the antidote for a poison that may have been swallowed, or the proper method of resuscitating a half-drowned person. True, he should know these things, but who does not occasionally forget, when he most wishes to remember? There are also dose-tables, tables of the metric system, a list of new remedies, rules for examining urine, a table for calculating the period of pregnancy,' and other equally useful information. The arrangement for entering patients, visits, consultations, etc., is exceeding simple, and the whole makes a thin, compact, and easily-carried volume."-Medical News, Philada., January 3, 1891. The Perpetual and Monthly Editions can be commenced at any time and used until full.

This is a plain, systematic method of keeping a record of visits; well printed, strongly bound, durable, convenient, and small.

This Visiting List is published in November of each year.
