CAL ANALYSIS. By Charles W. Eliot and Frank H. Störer.
Revised with the Cooperation of the Authors, by William Rip-
t.f.y Nichols, Professor of Chemistry in the Massachusetts Insti
tute of Technology.
“ This Manual has great merits as a practical introduction to the Science
and the art of which it treats. It contains enough of the theory and practice
of qualitative analysis, “ in the wet vay,’* to bring out all the reasoning in-
volved in the Science, and to present clearly to the student the most approved
mefhods of the art. It is specially adapted for exercises and experiments in
the laboratory; and yet its classifications and manner of treatment are so
systematic and logical throughout, as to adapt it in a high degree to that
higher dass of students generally who desire an accurate knowledge of the
practical methods of arrivmg at scientific facts.”—Lutheran Observer.
“ We wish every academical dass in the land could have the benefit of the
fifty exercises of two hours each necessary to master this book. Chemistry
would cease to be a mere matter of memory, and become a pleasant experi
mental and intellectual recreation. We heartlly commend this little volume
to the notice of those teachers who believe in using the Sciences as means of
mental disdpline.”—College Courant.

“ The most lucid, aecurate, and useful of all the hand-books on this subject
that we have yet seen. It gives forty-seven tables of comparison between the
English and French denominations of length, area, capacity, weight, and the
Centigrade and Fahrenheit thermometers, with clear instructions how to nse
them; and to this praetical portion, which helps to make the transition as
easy as possible, is prefixed a scientific explanation of the errors in the metric
jyatem, and how they may be correctcd in the laboratory.”—Nation.
