In early days pills were made slowly by hand, as the demand™ comparatively small. To : day they are produced with inh'nitelygreaterrapidifc. by machines especially contrived for th purpose, and with greater socmacy, too in the proportions Of the various ingred ientsemployed. '' * : l~ •'• . No form of medication caii be better than a pill, provided' only it. is intolligontly prepared. But right here occurs : , the difficulty.
