Every reader of newspapers has observed time and fasaip, in the advertising columns, many singular and frequently unpronounceable namies of medicinal reme- dies, The Greck and Latin languages especially have been drawn upon t@ furnish namés by which pat-nt medicines could be introduced to the public. The in- ference 1s, in many cases atleast, that their proprietors depend more upon the attraction of high-sounding tities than upon the essential merits of the remedies ‘themselves, Itis refreshing once in a while to find a medicine ad- vertised, whose simple, intelligible name in English at once conveys to the reader an understanding of the uses and purposes of the remedy. A noticeable instance of this kind is foundin themed- icines of Dr. C. W.

Its popularity is attested by the immense sales of it which are taki: lace everywhere.
