      MA JOR'S IMPROVEMENTS in VETERINARY SCIENCE . " If progress is' doily made in Medical Science by those whose duty it is to study the diseases to which the human flesh is heir , it would seem that improvements in Veterinary art Quite keep pace with it , as is manifest on a visit to the weP-knowii Horse Infirmary of Mr . Major , in Gockspurstreet . Here incipient and chronic lameness is discovered and : cured with , a fiicility truly astonishing , while the efficacy of the remedies , and the quickness of their action , appear to have revolutionised the whole system of firing-and ( blistering . Among the most recent proofs of the cure of spavins by Mr . Major , we may mention Cannobie , the wtnner of the Metropolitan , and ! second favourite forthe Derby , and who is now as sound as his friends and backers could desire . And . by . the advertisement of Mr . Major ' s-pamphlet in another column , we perceive that other equally miraculous cures are set forth , which place him at the head of the Veterinary art in London . "—Globe , May 10 , 1856 .

" " The composition of genuine Cod Liver Oil is not so simple as might bo supposed . Dr . db Jong-h gives the preference to the Light-Brown Oil over the Pale Oil , which contains scarcely any volatile fatty acid ,, a smaller quantity of iodine , phosphoric acid , and the elements of bile , and upou which ingredients the efficacy of Cod Liver Oil , no doubt , partly depends . Some of the deficiencies of the Pale Oil are attributable to the method of its , preparation , and especially to its filtration through charcoal .
