It is calculated to widen the views of the intelligent student in his endeavor to acquire a substantial knowledge of the carbon compounds; and the experienced analyst will find it a comprehensivo and reliable work of reference on most questions which are likely to arise in analytical investigations. The 33d annual meeting of the state dental aesociation began Tuesday in Ann Arbor and probably will cloae tonight. The liveliest thing that has occurred is the expulsión of Dr. C. H. Land, ol Detroit, from the association, which was done yesterday. Land is defiant, and even requested that his name be dropped. His offense is advertising contrary to the aesociation'a old code of ethica. He discovered aome sort of porcelain preparation valuable to the profesión, and advertised it in his business. This was considered unprofesaional and undoubtedly did viólate the code. Dr. Land, however, has many warm partisans who preJict that the code wiil be changed and that he will be reinstau-d. O t here eay that he wants to pose as a mrtyr, and get cotoriety. Yeaterday afternoon, afier special urgin?, Dr. Land gave a clinic before the associatian. Many valuable papera have been read.
