_~When in immediate need~_
of Drugs or Chemicals not at hand, any pharmacist is in a position to use our EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, which is in operation every day in the year, Sundays and Holidays included, until 9 p.m.--Hurry orders reaching us after regular business hours will receive prompt attention,--_provided_:
1--_that they come by_ WIRE;
2--_that they call for_ MERCK'S _chemicals or drugs_ (no other brands being in stock with us);
3--_and that the quantity and nature of the goods admit of their being sent through the_ MAILS.
As it is impossible for us to ascertain in each instance the identity of a Physician who might wish to make use of this department, we must insist (for the proper protection of the Profession against the unauthorized purchase of poisons, etc.; as well as in due recognition, by us, of the established usage in the traffic with medicines and drugs) that every such order be transmitted through an established Pharmacist; and pharmacists, when telegraphing orders to us, should always mention their jobber to whom the article is to be charged.
We trust that this Department will prove of value in cases of emergency and immediate need.

~"THE PRESCRIPTION"~--a chapter of special interest and direct usefulness to the general practitioner--containing in each number a series of selected Formulas; and, occasionally, criticisms on Prescription Errors; information and suggestions on Incompatibilities and other Prescription Difficulties; what should be prescribed in Solid and what in Liquid form; the Regulation of General Dosage, in such various forms as: gargles, eye-washes, urethral injections, vaginal injections, medicated baths; as well as of Dosage by Age in enemas, suppositories, hypodermics, etc.
Besides the above, the journal will contain such minor but serviceable matters as: "QUERIES AND ANSWERS;" "NOTES AND HINTS;" "PROFESSIONAL NEWS," etc.

_"MERCK'S ARCHIVES" will lay before the practitioner the results of the Thought and Work of others on Drugs and their Uses, in such form as to be most directly serviceable to him._
_The Condensed Reports on "Advance in Materia Medica" will give enough of the theoretical reasoning and clinical experience of the original authors, to make clear the value of their conclusions._
_The Papers, etc., of "Original Research" will be only such as combine relative brevity with practical usefulness. At the same time they will be of such high character as to invite the attention of him also who reads from purely scientific interest._
_The Selections from the world's medical Periodic Literature will be taken solely with a view to their suggestive value to the physician regarding remedial agents and their applications._
_The significance of the other matters in "MERCK'S ARCHIVES" is evident from their description in the preceding synopsis of contents; while their presentation will likewise be in full accord with the principles indicated above:--Practical Usefulness; Scientific Exactness; Ethical Dignity; Palatable and Readily Digestible Form._
