TO THE MEMBERS OF THE NEW YORK STATE PHARMACEUTICAL ASSOCIATION: Your committee herewith submits a list of the new remedies introduced since June, 1904.-[THOMAS J. KEENAN chairman. (Continued from page 134.) Guayarsin is a compound of guaiacol and arsenous oxide, made by A. Kopp, Strassburg, Germany. Guayarsin Syrup contains in each 10 Gm. 0.005 Gm. of arsenous oxide and 0.2 Gm. of guaiacol in combination with calcium chlorhydrophosphate and cinnamic acid. Gymnostachyum Febrifugum is the name of a root that is used medicinally in India according to David Hooper. The root is boiled and given to women with garlic or pepper after their confinement. It is also used in cases of fever and bilious complaints. The rhizomes are brown in color and from 1 to 2 inches long and 3-16 inch in diameter. They have a bitter, woody taste. A cross section shows a brown, almost reddish outer skin, a thick, dark rind and a lightwood with hollow center. The active principles are contained in the bark. The bitter principle is of an acid resinous nature, and is soluble in alcohol, ether and water; its solution is colored yellow by alkalies. Cholesterin was present, but no alkaloids were found in the bark. Henriettal is understood to be a creosoto-calcium oxysulphide which is put up in the form of dragees and recommended as a cure for tuberculosis. It is said to owe its efficacy to the circumstance that it splits up in the system to set free hydrogen sulphide and calcium chloride. The hydrogen sulphide destroys the virulence of the bacilli, while the calcium salt is supposed to render the blood alkaline and increase the resistance to disease. Heroline is a 33 per cent emulsion of petrolatum fortified with heroin hydrochloride, 1-16 grain; calcium hypophosphite, 8 grains, and sodium hypophosphite, 8 grains in each. ST. LOUIS LOCALS.

Manufactured by Martin Rudy (registered pharmacist), Lancaster, Pa. prevalent disease of this country, and there does not exist an antimalarial remedy, either in Europe or America, that has not been tried in Mexico, and that "Pildoras Nacionales" have superceded them all is a conclusive proof of their superiority. These little pills are put up in small wooden tubes, and are sold for 50 cents, American currency. They are easily carried in the pocket, and are packed in such a form that they can be sent by mail anywhere, and today they are being sent not only into every village of Mexico, but through Central and South America and the United States as well, for it has been thoroughly demonstrated that different climatic conditions do not affect in the least their efficacy among malarial subjects and for a proper toning up of the system in any part of the world. The pills are nonpurgative, contain nothing in the least injurious or accumulative-in fact, are a veritable health food, and are tolerated by the weakest stomach, either in babes or decrepit persons, thereby making them more valuable. That they will cure malaria more promptly than other remedies has been proven again obstinate case of chills and fever has been stopped by and again, and many are the instances where a most actual cure of this dread disease have they been so one day's use of the National Pills. Not only in the successful, but they act as an excellent general tonic, and as a preventive they are most valuable, for by taking them while being exposed to the malarial parasite, the careful user of these pills becomes stronger instead of remaining in a debilitated condition, and may reside for years, if necessary, in the most intensely malarial atmospheres without suffering in the least from this distressing malady. This company has just sent a representative to the Isthmus of Panama to demonstrate to the people living there that malaria will have no horrors, and families can be made perfectly immune from this disease. This has been proven in most of the worst malarial districts in Mexico, and from the first success has followed the introduction of the pills. Very shortly Mexican National Pills will be for sale by all druggists in America. New York being one of the world's great distributing points, it is the purpose of the Mexican National Pill Co. to have their main general office established there very soon, from which center this excellent remedy can be sent the more readily to every part of the world. |
