The cause, symptoms and treatment of the various diseases are given so fully that no mistake need be made regarding* the complaint or remedies required. The work appears complete in all departments, and should supply a long felt want, viz , a Medical Guide for the home, written in plain English. Yours, etc. H. H. Peins, M.R.0.5., Eng. Christchurch, June 27, 1884. To the Agents. Gentlemen, —In acknowledging the receipt of “ The Practical Home Physician,” I beg to inform you that I have carefully run through it, and believe it to be the most valuable compendium of domestic medicine and surgery that has come under my notice. It comprehends all the recent improvements and modern prescriptions, and is written in plain language, intelligible to non-professional readers, aud is by no means unworthy of j the attention of the bmy practitioners. I consider it a work of great usefulness, and confidently recommend it to the public. I have the honor to be yours, T. M. Philson, M.D., M.R.0.P., and M.R.C.S., Edin., (Late Surgeon Auckland Hospital.) Auckland, Feb. 25, 1884. To the Agent. Dear Sir, —I write to inform you that I am of opinion that “ The Practical Home Physician and Popular Guide for the Household Management of Disease " is the best book ever published on popular medical science, and should be of inestimable value to people living in the country, who cannot procure the personal attendance of a medical adviser. H. W. Maunsell, M.D., M.R.O.S. Eng., (Hon. Surgeon Dunedin Hospital). Dunedin, May 16,1884. To the Publishers. Dear Sirs, — After carefully looking through your work entitled “Practical) Horae Physician," I feel very confident in recommending it to the general public as o most useful domestic work on medicine and surgery, and far in advance of those usually published for such purposes. This book has the advantage in that it is written by men eminent in their special departments. The symptoms as set down in each case are clear, concise and logical. The treatment is eveiything to be desired and quite up to recent date. A word of praise is due for the manner in which the diseases have been classified, whilst the section on Hygiene, Therapeutical tables and botanical plates found towards (he end of the book cannot but prove of the greatest service to anyone peruging tl\e work.
