A Rival of Quinine.

German medical journals discussa ues medical agen. lately discovered by Pro, Fischer. of Munich. Tn the course of | long series of investigations concerning the nature and action of quinine he found tha, oy means of succession of chem;c d transformations substance can be ob- ,ained. in the form of white crystalline powder, from coal-tar which greatly re- sennbles quinine in its action on the hc- man organism. Fischer has given i, the name of kairin." The chief effec, pro l. duced by 1t. as yet observed. is the rapid diminution of fever heat, and its efricien cy in this respect is described as remark able. IL IS believed that i, will rende. the use of ice in fever cases unnecessary and that it's skillful employment will CT. able the physician to moderate the .er,- perasure of the patient. Karin is aiso reported to have less inconvenience for the stomach than quinine. But observa- uon does not show-as yet, af leas.-,ha, II possesses that tonic and restorative in huence for which quinine is So freouen,ly administered. Perhaps, from chem;cil and physiological point of view. the mos: valuable thing abou, the new discovery is that II seems to bring us nearer finding out the chemical nature of quinine itse. and the true character of its agency. The discovery has been patented and manr- factory of kairin established under :he direction of Prof Laubenheimer, of Gles- sen. But. as # is said that the cos; oi producing kilogramme ,abou, !; l.. ounee) of the new agent is .I5. i, will De some time before its patrons can hope to see i, take the place of quinine in pra-- sicai pharmacy.
