Only upon the earnest solicitation of many professional friends was the author prevailed upon to publish this volume. He has, therefore, as a guide to the druggist and the pharmacist, after many years of earnest toil, labor and great expense, brought together a vast amount of information suitable in every respect to the wants of the compounder of new and elegant preparations. With this object in view, standard works on every subject connected therewith have been carefully and freely consulted.
