It was the aim of the original compiler of 'The Druggists' General Receipt Book' to collect from various and widely scattered sources, and to condense into a volume of small size and convenient arrangement, a considerable amouut of information that might be useful to Chemists and Druggists.

In the present volume the endeavour has been made to adhere to this design, and to keep the work abreast with the requirements of the Chemist and Druggist, by the addition, of such new forms, receipts, and processes as have sprung into existence since the publication of the last edition.

The Veterinary Materia Medica has been carefully revised and enlarged; whilst in the photographic division, obsolete matter has been supplanted by the latest and most approved Formulae.
