Excerpt from Experimental Chemistry: For Junior Students We believe that he is right in the plan he has adopted, and that instruction of this nature would greatly facilitate the acquisition of clear and distinct ideas of the leading facts and laws of Chemistry.' (cfiemz'cal News, vol. Xxix. Page This work is divided into four parts, each one being, as far as -practicable, complete in itself. Part I. Is introductory, and deals with first principles, and with the chemistry of the typical elements, hydro gen and oxygen, and their compounds; Part II., with the rest of the non-metals Part III., with the metals; and Part IV., with organic chemistry. The experiments described are, whenever possible, those easily performed; in some cases, however, methods are necessarily detailed which the student may not have either the skill or the means to carry out, but he should endeavour to see these operations carefully conducted. It is assumed throughout that the reader can obtain some practical instruction in glass working and the construction of apparatus.
