COMMISSIONERS OF PHARMACY
Their Annual Report to the Governor aps

The Commissioners of Pharmacy, II. T.
Cummings. VI. D., and II. Boynton. made
their annual report to the Governor and
Council yesterday.
The commissioners have held their me.t-
ings for examination at regularly stated
times During 1885 there were So applicants
for examination, all CT whom were passed
and received their certificates, most of item
doing extremely we'll. Ten were registered
under the provisions of section 9Th of
the act and one received the certificate
Of qualified assistant under sec. 6 In 1886,
seventeen were registered upon examination
four under sec. aud one as qualified assist
ant. The total number upon the Register is,
OF those who were established at the passage
of the original act, 238; Of those registered
upon EXAMINATION, POI; qualified assistants,
9; in all 46l OF these, Is of the frat elias.
and Of the second, have been reported Is
the commissioners as deceased: and 4 of the
former class have left the State The changes
in locality are frequent and perplexing OF
twenty-four spothecaries We have reports as
follows: One. a lady apothecary, has
married; have left the business. 7 have
gone beyond the limit, of the State, 3
WHO came here from New Brunswick for ex
ANIMATION are In that Province, from Bos
ton are there now, and 8 are not accounted
for, but there is reason to believe they have
retired from business or gone from the State
1t is to be regretted, saw the Commission
ers, that those who come up for examination
do not familiarize Themselves With the
Language of their science by rsadi ,g some of
the excellent treatise which are now so
abundant. There are many articles in phar-
macentical journals aud magazines which
they could read To advantage.
The cOmmissioners will ask Of the leyis-
lsture the passage of the following amend
ment to section of the act:
lfa qualified assistant. after the expiration of three
fall years Of service in which the two years he has
already served shall be included shall appear before
the commissioners and shall pass a satisfactory ex
certificate as registered apothecary, upon payment
to the commissioners of Eve dollars.
