There is nothing wonderful in the claim that quinine could be made from other tilings than the bark. “Fruit essences arc now made without fruits, and other items of chemical stock are made chemically without the interven tion of the usual natural product. Yet the medical world was disturbed last ftemtem her when Dr. Cresswell Hewitt, of London, announced that he bad discovered a process to make quinine. He made no effort to establish this claim or submit his product to test; but I have Just received a letter from London tolling of the formation of a com pany to manufacture the drug on Dr. Hew itt’s process. He still keeps all particulars to himself, and it is not known whether the cinchona bark is the oasis of his process, or from what be manufactures tbt drug. The company is called the Atlas Quinine Com- niioy, aud I am informed has large capital. If Hewitt lias discovered what he claims he will have made us independent of the irregular supply from the countries wltcre the trees grow that produce the bark, and while the price of the drug may not I* mu tcrially reduced it will not rise in time of war in those countries. Then, too, his sue cess will stimulate oilier chemists to exper iments looking to the manufacture of other drugs without reliance on the natural product.
