\ The American Pharmaceutical, Associ

the scientific world, not only of the Unit
ed States, but of Europe as well. Its
members are devoted in many cases to
the cause of science and as inventors,
professors and instructors, bear honora-
BILE record. The society was formed in
1852 at Philadelphia, and its long list of
officers from that time to the present
embraces the names of men who have
been highly honored in the scientific
world. From California to New Hamp-
shire, from New Orleans to Canada, the
annual meetings have been held. At the
meeting at the Profile House the past
week, 400 gentlemen were admitted to
membership, the largest number record
ed at any one meeting.

words of praise of their stay at the
