| from the English press. They present to the
student great facilities in acquiring a knowledge
OF the human structure.
The plates Of the American edition appear to
me to be as we'll and as correctly executed as
those Of the original work.

Spruce Street, Feb'ry 16, 1912
Gentlemen:-In reply to your note of yester-
day, requesting my opinion Of the series OF Anat.
omica Plates of Dr. Quan and Mr.. Wilson,
am glad 10 be able to state, that it is, in my
opinion, the most splendid work of the kind that
has appeared. Its authors are practised and ex.
celent anatomists, and not less informed in the
various relations which that important depart
ment bears to medical science in general. The
plates, in the original, are faithful representa-.
tons Of the human frame as exposed Oh dssec-
ton, and are beautifully delneated.
Such work, executed throughout with the
same care as the photographic plates which you
exhibited TO me, and under the supervision Of so
able an anatomist as Prof Pancoas should
esteem cheap and most valuable addition to
our stock Of anatomical works; and cannot
doubt that it would be eagerly sought after by
the student; as well as by the practitioner, to
refresh his memory on important occasions.
am, gentlemen, respectfully yours,
ROBLEY DUNGLISON,
Prof. Of the Institutes of Medicine &C., in JEFF.
ferson Medical College.

GentIemen:-I have Just received your note
requesting my opinion as to the merits Of the
series Of "Anatomica Plates by Jones Quain,
M. D., reprint of which you have engaged in
1t affords me much pleasure to state that from
close examination Of this acorA, | am induced to
consider it the best of its class that has appeared
and most cordially recommend it to the medical
student With regard, yours, &c.
THOMAS D. MUTTER,
Prof Of Surgery in the Jefferson Medical College.
To Messrs. Carey q Hart.
Walnut Street, 'ry &c. 1912.
Gentlemen The coloured anatomical plates,
published by Jones Quain, M. D., Professor Of
Anatomy in the University Of London, are as &C.
,urate IN all their delineations as they are splen
lid in their execution.
| consider them the most valuable work, upon
he subjects they portray, ever offered to the med
cal profession and the testimony OF my private
students is strong in their favor. They say if, al.
er the demonstration OF the professor OF anatomy,
here remains any doubt upon their minds as to
he precise location or structure Of any organ,
t is Immediately removed by view OF Quan's
Plates.
The only objection to the work is the expense
If it, costing as it does upwards Of one hundred
dollars which | understand you intend to re.
move, by offering it reduced price,
You have my best wishes for the success of
his enterprise; as | am persuaded, that if you
IAN reduce the expense OF this work as low as
'ou anticipate, you will become benelactor TO
ur profession.
Very sincerely and faithfully yours,
VIM. HARRIS.
TO Messrs, Carey & Hart.
Philadelphia, Feb'ry II, 1912.
Gentlemen. --Quan's Anatomical Plates, so
ompete and accurate as they are, would on
his ground alone be strongly recommended to
he medical student and practitioner; to the
ormer as guide, to the latter as remembrancer
# details which are too soon forgotten, and yet
knowledge Of which is often OF vital import
nee. When it is added to these claims on our {
notice, that the American edition of this WORK
which you are bringing out in style Of artistica
Execution superior even as far as relates to the
ngraving to the English Edition, and at price
'ne,eighth Of that Of the original, we may readily
uPpose that your liberal expenditure on this
occasion will be met by large and ready sale
If these truly beautiful plates.
