The Most Useful Drugs.


According to the London Medical
Times and Gazette, a party OF ten med
ical nen we're dining together notlong
since. and one of them, during dessert,
started the question that, supposing ell
present were limited in their practice to
selection OF six pharmocopeial RENE
dies, which would be chosen as being
most useful, compound drugs to be ex
cepted. Each of the party wrote the
names OF the six drugs he should select
and banded them to the doctor who
started the enquiry. On examining the
lists it was found majority OF votes
were given in favor OF opium, qninine
and iron between mercury and iodidt
of potassium the votes were equally di
vided, as they were also between am
monia and chloroform.
