John King, M. D**This brief biography is compiled, largely, from an article by this writer, published in the Western Druggist, December, 1893, and reprinted in the Eclectic Medical Journal, Cincinnati, January and February, 1894. The writer regrets that space does not now permit of a more extended paper on the life of this remarkable man, a subject of absorbing interest. But those desiring gr-r details will find them in the admirable work of Professor Harvey Wickes Felter, M. D., in Bulletin No. 10 (Pharmacy Series No. 5), of the Lloyd Library of Botany, Pharmacy and Materia Medica. In this is also presented an admirable frontispiece engraving of the man whose work is herein described.

Committee reports. Report on patent law

Committee reports. Report on patent law revision**The evidence in support of the Preambles and Resolutions and suggested additions to the copyright, patent and trade-mark laws contained in the first part of our report was not published in the May Journal owing to want of space. I am now sending you the remaining part of the report, by request, as it is considered quite necessary for the members of the Association to have in their hands before the next annual meeting, the entire document for consideration and study. It is believed that this will decidedly facilitate matters and save much time at the annual meeting which otherwise might be used up in unnecessary discussion of the subject.Your Committee wishes to again emphasize that fact that we have no desire to impose our personal views on the Association. The copyright and patent laws were designed to promote progress in science and the useful arts and the trade-mark laws to protect the public from fraud and imposition. It is generally conceded that the laws as now interpreted and applied fall short in accomplishing their purpose. It is therefore incumbent upon the A. Ph. A., representing the pharmacists of America, to suggest proper modifications of the law, of such kind as to secure the very important objects for which they were enacted.—F. E. Stewarcth, Chairman.
