Abstract
AS a general rule, the teacher of practical chemistry yields sooner or later to the apparently irresistible temptation of writing a text-book for the use of students attending his classes. The consequent excessive multiplication of elementary treatises is, in the main, deplorable, although the contents of some of these publications afford an interesting indication of the trend of contemporaneous science teaching.
