IMPORTANT NOTICE.
I am glad to announce that since the death of my father Pandit Avinash Chandra Kaviratna, the late translator and publisher of the Charaka Samhita and proprietor of Kaviratna Aushadhalaya. the one cheap and genuine Ayurvedic Dispensary in all India, situated at 200 Corn¬ wallis Street, Calcutta, the above publication and the management of the Dispensary and all concerns relating thereto have been carried on under the direct supervision of Rai Rajendra Chandra Sastri Bahadur, m. a., Premchand Raichand Scholar, and Librarian to the Bengal Government.
Parts XL to XLII were issued about a month ago. Part XLII I just now issued and Part XLIV is almost ready and will be issued within a few very days. Parts XXXV — XLII I (9 Parts) were issued during 9 or 10 months and the re^maining portion of the Chikitsitasthan will be completed within a short period.
Attention of subscribers and others is earnestly soli¬ cited to the fact that if they have any missing Parts, they should lose no time in asking for them, for it will be practically impossible for us to supply them hereafter.
It is a matter of good fortune to us that almost all the subscribers to our Charaka are persons of learning and high social position. All that is needed, therefore, is to remind them of their arrears of subscription to induce them to remit the same without delay.
Subscribers’ encouragement by speedy payments is earnest¬ ly solicited for enabling us to make a faster progress in the work of publication.
