Prepared only by Charles Marchand Chemist and Graduate of the "Ecole Centrale des Arts et Manufactures de Paris" (France) 57-59 Prince Street, NEW YORK. only three papers, but inasmuch as one of these was by Dr. Julia C. Loos of Harrisburg, we are convinced that the lack of numbers was made up for in quality. The meeting place was Harrisburg and the dates the 22nd, 23rd and 24th of last month. The Critique extends its deepest sympathy to one of its associate editors, Dr. J. M. S. Chesshire, Peabody, Kansas, due to the loss of his most estimable wife, the same occurring in August. The cause of the sad taking away of this helpmeet and friend was puerperal fever and Dr. Chesshire is left with the care of two young children, one a boy seven weeks old at the time of his mother's death, and a little girl twenty-six months old. It will take much more than words to express the sorrow one feels for a calamity of this sort; Dr. Chesshire knows we sympathize with him fully, as do a large circle of friends. As The Critique predicted in its last issue, the executive committee of the American Institute of Homeopathy took a hand in the selection of a secretary to fill the place of the late lamented Frank Kraft, and, as a result of the meeting held at the New Coates House August 17th, Dr. J. Richey Horner was selected to succeed Dr. Kraft. Dr. Horner is a most capable man and under similar conditions on a previous occasion when quick and strenuous work was demanded, filled the position in a most acceptable manner. The recent selection by the executive committee will, no doubt, meet with the approval of a majority of the membership and there is no doubt but that Dr. Horner will do the work acceptably and well. Congratulations to Dr. Horner and the American Institute. * * For the first time in several years in this city the degree of Master of Pharmacy was conferred, upon five distinguished men from different sections of the United States, who have attained distinction in the art of preparing medicines and drugs. Those who received this honor were Samuel W. Fairchild of New York; Horatio Nelson Fraser of New York; John F. Hancock of Baltimore; S. A. D. Shepard of Boston, and William McIntyre of Philadelphia.-Evening Bulletin, Philadelphia. The Samuel W. Fairchild whose name heads the list in the foregoing roll of honor is the treasurer of the firm of Fairchild Bros. & Foster of New York City. This firm has the highest reputation for progressiveness in the preparation of many different products, their name alone standing for quality and class wherever pharmaceutical accuracy is demanded. Dr. Willis A. Dewey has been selected as the chief organizer of the American Institute of Homeopathy; this wise choice was made at a meeting of the Council of Medical Education, held in Boston July 23rd. Dr. Dewey's salary will be $2,000 per year and the other members of the Council will be paid $10 per day and their actual expenses. It will not take long to lose that $6,000 raised at Kansas City under such conditions, but there is no doubt but what the money will be well spent. Now if the committee will get busy and weed out colleges not entitled to protection of the American Institute and make them either fish or cut bait, they will be doing a service quite calculated to benefit Homœopathy. Is Dewey too much of a politician, to do this, or will he "hew to the line, let the chips fall where they may"? That the Antikamnia Chemical Company is one of the few firms producing a proprietary preparation which has not felt the fierce onslaughts of the American Medical Journal's jolts and other attempts to put all such out of business that the J. A. M. A. might monopolize medical matters, is quite evident from a study of secular literature of the daily paper class. In looking over a copy of one of the prominent St. Louis papers we see that this company has under course of construction a five-story building, 81×109 feet, in one of the busiest manufacturing districts of the city, and that even this large space will be inadequate to accommodate the constantly-increasing business of the firm. In addition to this the Antikamnia people will lease an adjoining building, with almost equal floor space of their new plant, all of which will be thrown together and used by them solely. Antikamnia has had a wanderful growth but it is quite evident that its full development has not been reached by any means. At a special meeting of the executive committee of the American Institute of Homœopathy, held in the Coates House, Kansas City, Missouri, on Monday, August 17, 1908, the following preamble and resolutions were adopted: Whereas, Our beloved Secretary, Frank Kraft, M. D., has entered into the great transition from his earthly labors into his eternal rest, therefore be it Resolved, That the executive committee of the Amrican Institute of Homœopathy would place on record the very great loss we have sustained. His hearty belief in the principles of Homœopathy, combined with his clear-cut ability to express these beliefs, made him, at all times, a fearless and uncompromising antagonist. His genial and lovable nature made him the lasting friend of all who came to really know him. Resolved, That these resolutions be placed upon the minutes of the American Institute of Homeopathy and a copy be sent to the family of Dr. Kraft, and also be published in the Medical journals.
