We are in receipt of the initial number of Current Thought, Cleveland, Ohio, in the form of a quarterly journal. Heretofore the publication has been issued as paper covered books, called Current Thought Library. Mr. C. Elton Blanchard, the editor of this journal was formerly publisher of the Cleveland Medical Gazette. The medical profession will find much of interest in Current Thought as will any thinking man or woman. Dr. F. W. Whitehead, formerly of Scotland Neck, N. C., has located in Suffolk, Va. Beginning with the January issue there will be published a foreign edition of the Laryngoscope. This journal is published in St. Louis and is devoted to diseases of the nose, throat and ear. The Western Medical and Surgical Gazette is the latest of the new journals to come to our table. It is edited by Drs. W. N. Beggs and Lincoln Massey at Denver, Colorado. It is full of interesting matter and is ably edited. We welcome it as a journal well worthy of abundant success. The Georgia Journal of Medicine and Surgery gives notice that henceforth it will contain from 75 to 100 pages instead of 50 as heretofore. We are pleased to see that this execellent journal is meeting with such early success. Dr. W. E. Warren has removed from Greenville to Stokes, N. C. One of our subscribers in responding to our late call for our friends to come over and help us, writes that just as he signed the check an old delinquent patient who had been owing a bill over two years, came in and paid the exact amount as that for which he had just drawn his check. See what a good influence writing that check had! Verbum sat sapienti. Dr. J. Berrien Lindsley, age 75 years, at Nashville, Tenn., December 7, 1897. Dr. Lindsley was probably the most conspicuous member of the medical profession of his State. death was due to prostration from smoke of a fire in the building adjoining his residence and of exposure while watching the efforts of the firemen. He took a deep and active interest in the educational and sanitary affairs of his State and city, and was at the time of his death secretary of the State Board of Health, which position he had held for many years. He was also a member of the Numismatic and Antiquarian Society, of Philadelphia; of the American Chemical Society; of the American Academy of music; Director of the National Prison Association; corresponding member of the National Prison Association, of France; treasurer of the American Public Health Association; fellow of the Historical Society of Lodon and America. Dr. Lindsley was ordained to the ministry of the Presbyterian church in 1846, and ten years later had conferred upon him by the College of New Jersey, at Princeton, the degree of Doctor of Divinity. He was instrumental in having created in 1850, the Medical Department of the University of Tennessee, of which he was the first dean, and in which he held the chair of State Medicine at the time of his death. Reading Motices. Pepsin is undoubtedly one of the most valuable digestive agents of our Meteria Medica, provided a good article is used. Robinson's Lime Juice and Pepsin, and Arom. Fluid Pepsin, we can recommend as possessing merit of high order. The fact that the manufacturers of these palatable preparations use the purest and best Pepsin, and that every lot made by them is carefully tested, before offering for sale, is a guarantee to the physician that he will certainly obtain the good results he expects from Pepsin.
