'A gov ernment commission of doctors and druggists have just brought out, after eleven years of hard work, a revised editor of the ''Codex Medicamenta rius." 7), .;.;;., ; 7V a ".'-'.r:'.".-: , : This is the official list of all the medicines which, by authority effect ive and we canofflcially be cured by no others. The codex was first pub lished In the XVII Century by the King's order. Since then it has been much altered and In the new edition the list of medicines baa been cut down considerably. Thus while only 151 hew remedies have been added as many as ; 791 old preparations have been left out . One wonders what has happened to these obsolete remedies. They cured all right while the 1895 edition of the code was In force, and now they are declared to have no effect. The say ing of a famous old French doctor may be appropriately, recalled. .
