    the therapeutic application of many compounds has been received from Merck's Annual Eeports, and I also desire to thank the numerous firms of manufacturing chemists who have kindly supplied me with information concerning their products, especially Messrs. Burroughs Wellcome & Co., W. H. Martin- dale, and the Hoffmann-LaEoche Chemical Works. In general, trade names are spelt with a capital letter, except in cases, such as phenacetin, where they have passed into general chemical use. I wish to express my most grateful thanks to Prof. J. N. Collie, F.K.S., for valuable advice and criticism while the book was passing through the press, to Dr. J. C. Cain for his kindness in helping me in the proof correction, to Dr. G. Barger who has read part of the manuscript, and to Mr. H. J. Page and Mr. E. de Barry Barnett for assistance in correcting the proofs. Univebsity of London, Univebsity College, February, 1911.
