of Drugs or Chemicals not at hand, any pharmacist is in a position to use our EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, which is in operation every day in the year, Sundays and Holidays included, until 9 p.m.—Hurry orders reaching us after regular business hours will receive prompt attention,—provided:
1—that they come byWire;
2—that they call forMerck'schemicals or drugs(no other brands being in stock with us);
3—and that the quantity and nature of the goods admit of their being sent through theMails.
As it is impossible for us to ascertain in each instance the identity of a Physician who might wish to make use of this department, we must insist (for the proper protection of the Profession against the unauthorized purchase of poisons, etc.; as well as in due recognition, by us, of the established usage in the traffic with medicines and drugs) thatevery such order be transmitted through an established Pharmacist; and pharmacists, when telegraphing orders to us, should always mention their jobber to whom the article is to be charged.
We trust that this Department will prove of value in cases of emergency and immediate need.

MERCK'S ARCHIVESOFThe Materia Medica and its Uses
A JOURNAL FOR THE PRACTICING PHYSICIAN
PUBLISHED MONTHLY BY MERCK & Co., NEW YORK
General Scope of Contents.
[N.B.—This "General Scope" is not to be understood to state certain standing divisions or chapter heads for the contents of the journal; but rather to denote the character of the various classes of matter to be treated of.]
"ORIGINAL RESEARCH"—comprising Papers, Lectures, or Reports by reputable investigators on the results of experiments and collective trials, regarding the physiological actions and curative properties of Drugs, and the manner of their therapeutic Employment.
"ADVANCE IN MATERIA MEDICA"—being Condensed Reports, freshly compiled each month, on the latest advances in Medicinal Agents and in Methods of applying them—embracing the discoveries of New Remedies, and of New Uses of the older ones.
"THE JOURNALS"—a collection of noteworthy expressions of Medical Opinion on recent questions relating to Drugs and their Uses, as culled from the latest American and foreign journals.
"THE PRESCRIPTION"—a chapter of special interest and direct usefulness to the general practitioner—containing in each number a series of selected Formulas; and, occasionally, criticisms on Prescription Errors; information and suggestions on Incompatibilities and other Prescription Difficulties; what should be prescribed in Solid and what in Liquid form; the Regulation of General Dosage, in such various forms as: gargles, eye-washes, urethral injections, vaginal injections, medicated baths; as well as of Dosage by Age in enemas, suppositories, hypodermics, etc.
Besides the above, the journal will contain such minor but serviceable matters as: "QUERIES AND ANSWERS;" "NOTES AND HINTS;" "PROFESSIONAL NEWS," etc.
"MERCK'S ARCHIVES" does not profess to "do everything;" but it aims to do One Thing thoroughly,—to offer the practitioner new and valuable information on the Materia Medica and its recent developments.
"MERCK'S ARCHIVES" will lay before the practitioner the results of the Thought and Work of others on Drugs and their Uses, in such form as to be most directly serviceable to him.
The Condensed Reports on "Advance in Materia Medica" will give enough of the theoretical reasoning and clinical experience of the original authors, to make clear the value of their conclusions.
The Papers, etc., of "Original Research" will be only such as combine relative brevity with practical usefulness. At the same time they will be of such high character as to invite the attention of him also who reads from purely scientific interest.
The Selections from the world's medical Periodic Literature will be taken solely with a view to their suggestive value to the physician regarding remedial agents and their applications.
The significance of the other matters in "MERCK'S ARCHIVES" is evident from their description in the preceding synopsis of contents; while their presentation will likewise be in full accord with the principles indicated above:—Practical Usefulness; Scientific Exactness; Ethical Dignity; Palatable and Readily Digestible Form.
