GLUTOID CAPSULES.—Apothecary Hausmann. ofSt. Callen. by hardening gelatin capsules with formalde-hyde, has rendered them impervious to the action of theacid juices of the stomach, but upon contact with thealkaline secretions of the intestines this gelatin coat isreadily dissolved. This offers a ready substitute forkeratin or salol coating.—(Phar. Centh., 97, p. 24; ). John Cam rick. John Carnrick, of Reed & Carnrick, New York, hasdone some very meritorious work in the realm of pharma-ceutical chemistry. A native of Sand Lake. RensselaerCounty, New York, he spent his boyhood in Troy andcame to New York at the age of 17. After teachingschool for a while he took a course in medicine, but in-stead of graduating he opened a drug store in JerseyCity, and commenced the study of pharmacy and chem-istry with a view to improving the palatable qualities ofmedicines. Thus John Carnrick may be said to be oneof the pioneers in the field of what is known as elegantpharmacy. The original drug store was operated by Mr. Carnrickunder the name of Gardner & Carnrick. This was after-ward changed to Carnrick & Andrus, and subsequentlyto Reed & Carnrick, a name now famous all over theworld. Through all the changes of name it was Mr. Carn-ricks genius as a chemist that made the success of thehouse possible. The preparations which he invented areu
