Book Description
Excerpt from The American Journal of Pharmacy, Vol. 64: Published by Authority of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy Beinhauer was orthodox and while Roeder. was an ordained preacher, his passion for the natural sciences led him more and more into different channels until he taught only these branches. Having the companionship of two such men, the idea of the union of religion and science had something fascinating for Maisch, which was further encouraged by the promise of his teachers to prepare him for the University and the wish of his mother to see her son a pulpit orator. The school which Maisch was attending did not have in its curriculum the necessary branches to permit his matriculation at a university and this forced him to obtain outside private lessons, especially in the dead languages. Of much greater importance was the beginning of the instruction in chemistry under Dr. Bromeis, for he took great interest in chemical experiments and was known among his companions as a very earnest student. Bromeis encouraged his students to begin original researches and he permitted Maisch to assist him in the continuation of his work on the fatty acids and resins. These opportunities caused Maisch to give up his intention of studying theology and devote himself entirely to the natural sciences as a life-work, but it seemed as if fate had ordained otherwise. It was the intention of his teachers to prepare him so that he would be admitted into one of the upper classes of the Gymnasium; this demanded from him extraordinary exertion, which was too much for his weakened constitution, and at the close of the school year, we find him confined to his bed by sickness. On his recovery, and after a conference with his physician, his teachers advised him to relinquish the idea of studying at a university, as they considered it beyond his powers of endurance. With a sad heart he followed their advice, and intended to take up the study of pharmacy, but here similar obstacles were encountered, the improbability of his obtaining the concession of an apothecary being the principal one. He then entered the service of Hesse, and about this time he joined the Turners of Hanau, and with them made the excursions which have become memorable in the history of the valley of the Main.

Book Description
Excerpt from American Journal of Pharmacy, 1861, Vol. 9 With us, the demand has become quite frequent of late for silver and gold coated pills, several eminent practitioners prescribing this elegant finish, and we have acquired some experience in the manipulation. The above represents an apparatus we have had turned to order from hard wood for use in this process. In rolling the pills, care is taken to use no dusting powder of any kind, and to have them moderately damp, otherwise we moisten them with a little syrup, and then introduce them into the hollow sphere along with the requisite quantity of silver or gold leaf; a rapid motion is now given to the globe, and in a few seconds the pills are removed with a clear and bright coating. One dozen pills of average size, require one sheet of foil, and larger numbers in the same proportion. Some difficulty is experienced in giving a handsome coating to pills of Quevenne's Metallic Iron, on account of their black color; this can only be obviated by the use of a larger proportion of foil, which may be objectionable as interfering with their solubility notwithstanding its extreme tenuity. The taste of the pills is of course disguised in proportion to the completeness of the coating; in dispensing, no powder is necessary, the tendency to adhere to each other being obviated. Some of the old recipes direct to use a gallipot laid against the palm of the hand, for coating pills with the foil. We have found two porcelain capsules fitted to each other, the opening at the lips being covered by the thumb, to serve a very good purpose; but there is a decided saving in the use of an apparatus as above figured, any portion of the foil not adhering to one charge of pills will be ready for the next, besides the advantage which is gained by the leverage of the handle.

Book Description
Excerpt from The American Journal of Pharmacy, Vol. 29 In the London Journal of Pharmacy, vol. iii, page ICO, will be found an article, by Dr. Alexander Ure, upon the South American bark called the Malambo or Matias bark, a short extract of which will be found in the appendix to the U. S. Dispensatory, page 1849. Dr. Ure states in his paper, that Malambo or Matias bark is the product of a tree in Colombia, S. A., and that it was placed in his hands by Hugh Houston, Esq., which gentleman received it from Dr. Mackay, who communicated, two papers respecting it to the British Association, and mentions having procured from it by distillation two oils, one lighter than water, of a specific gravity 0-949; the other denser, of a specific gravity 1-028. He further obtained a brown, bitter extractive substance. Dr. Mackny remarked, that it had been successfully used in intermittent fever, in convalescence from continued fever, in hemicrania, dyspepsia, and a variety of chronic ailments, where tonics and stimulants were indicated; and that as an adjunct to diuretic remedies, it had been found eminently useful. Dr. Ure describes the Malambo or Matias bark to be three or four lines in thickness, brittle, though somewhat fibrous; emitting when fresh bruised an aromatic flavor, not unlike that of calamus; color of a brown hue, covered with an ash-colored tuberculous epiderm, and possessing a bitter pungent taste. With water it forms an agreeable bitter infusion; with alcohol, a powerful bitter tincture. Ether extracts from it volatile oil and resin. Heated along with hydrate of potash, free ammonia is disengaged, indicating the presence of an azotized principle. It is without astringency. It appears to coincide, as suggested to me b)T M. Guibourt, both in regard to physical and sensible properties, with Malambo, the Indian name for the bark of a tree which grows in New Granada, and which is held in high esteem among the natives as a febrifuge and stomachic. Malambo bark was analysed by M. Cadet Gassicourt, about twenty-eight years ago (Journ. de Pharmacies tom. ii, p. 372); subsequently by M. Vauquelin, who ascertained the presence of three distinct substances, namely: 1. An aromatic volatile oil. 2. A very bitter resin.
