oks recommended in the various colleges again shows a
#decided gain for the Saunders publications#. During the present college
year, in the list of recommended books published by 164 colleges (the
other 23 have not published lists), the Saunders books are mentioned
3278 times, as against 3054 the previous year--#an increase of 224#. In
other words, in each of the medical colleges in this country an average
of 20 (18-2/5 the previous year) of the teaching books employed are
publications issued by W. B. Saunders Company. That this increase is not
due alone to the publication of new text-books, but rather to a most
gratifying increase in the recommendation of text-books recognized as
standards, is at once evident from the following: Ashton's Gynecology
shows an increase of 19; DaCosta's Surgery, an increase of 12; Hirst's
Obstetrics, 14; Howell's Physiology, 25; Jackson on the Eye, 16; Sahli's
Diagnostic Methods, 11; Scudder's Fractures, 11; Stengel's Pathology,
13; Stelwagon on the Skin, 11. These are but examples of similar
remarkable gains throughout the entire list, and is undoubted evidence
that the #Saunders text-books are recognized as the best#.

#JUST READY--EXCLUSIVELY MEDICAL GYNECOLOGY#
This new work by Dr. Bandler is just the book that the physician engaged
in general practice has long needed. It is truly _the practitioner's
gynecology_--planned for him, written for him, and illustrated for him.
There are many gynecologic conditions that do not call for operative
treatment; yet, because of lack of that special knowledge required for
their diagnosis and treatment, the general practitioner has been unable
to treat them intelligently. This work gives just the information the
practitioner needs. It not only deals with those conditions amenable to
non-operative treatment, but it also tells how to recognize those
diseases demanding operative treatment, so that the practitioner will be
enabled to advise his patient at a time when operation
