    J. G. A. LUGOL, PHYSICIAN TO THE HOSPITAL ST. LOUIS, &.C., &C. RESEARCHES AND OBSERVATIONS ON SCROFULOUS DISEASES; Translated from the French, BY A. SIDNEY DOANE, A.M., M.D. One vol. 12mo. Price One Dollar. This is a work of great value to the members of the medical profession, and to the great number of sufferers by an insidious and most widely-extended disease.—N. Y. Tribune. It is the most complete work we know of on Scrofulous diseases.—Morning News. M. Lugol has presented us an admirable treatise on Scrofulous Diseases, adapted to the comprehension of all reflecting persons. Not only will enlightened parents derive from it much useful instruction, but the medical professon will assent to the statement that Lugol's Researches contain a very luminous exhibition of the subject to which it relates.— Christian Intelligencer. It is a very satisfactory and necessary book for all who would understand how to avoid the various ills of Scrofula.—Evening Mirror. Dr. Lugol has shed great light upon a subject of peculiar interest, both to parents and their children.—N. Y. Evening Post. Dr. Doane has wisely selected this volume for transfer into our language. The insidious character of Scrofula, the multiplied phases that it assumes, its diversified causes and exhi- bitions, according to the state of the subject whom it affects, and its wide-spread evils, ren- der a luminous and skilful development of this malady a public benefit.—Am. Republican. P. H. RICORD,M.D., SURGEON OF THE VENEREAL HOSPITAL OF PARIS, CLINICAL PROFESSOR OF SPECIAL PATHOLOGY, &C. PRACTICAL TREATISE ON VENEREAL DISEASES; OR CRITICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCHES ON INOCULATION APPLIED TO THE STUDY OF THESE AFFECTIONS, WITH A THERAPEUTICAL SUMMARY AND SPECIAL FORMULARY. Translated from the French, BY A. SIDNEY DOANE, A.M., M.D. In one volume, 8vo. Price $1 50. The subscriber is personally acquainted with Dr. Ricord, and has seen much of his practice, not only in his Hospital, but in private, and can bear testimony to his merits as a Practitioner, and also to the value of his Practical Treatise on Venereal Diseases, now about to be translated for the general use of the Profession in this country. The present translation is offered to subscribers at less cost than the French edition at Paris. VALENTINE MOTT, M.D., Professor of Surgery. The work of Ricord is one of the very best which have been published on Venereal Dis- eases, and I think that a good English translation will prove of great service to the Profes- sion. J. KEARNEY RODGERS, M.D. I have seen Dr. Ricord in his Hospital, and have been very much interested in watching his experiments and his practice. I regard the result of his labors of more importance than anything which has appeared since the days of Hunter, and it gives me great pleasure to know that so ..valuable a work as his Practical Treatise on Venereal Diseases is to be presented to the Profession in the English language. WILLARD PARKER, M.D., Professor of Surgery and Surgical Anatomy. M. Ricobd's Practical Treatise on Venereal Diseases is a.substantial addition to our stock of sound professional knowledge. The reprint of his book in this country will do vast good, and none need doubt that the task will be ably performed by his American editor. JOHN W. FRANCIS, M.D., Late Professor of Obstetrics in the College of Physicians and Surgeons. M. Ricord's Treatise on Venereal Diseases is generally acknowledged, to be one of the most valuable on the subject which has ever appeared. I doubt not that every subscriber will be fully repaid for the small expense he will incur, by the large amount of original and useful information which he will receive. ALFRED C. POST, M.D., Professor of Surgery.
