In PART I. the student is instructed to perform a series of experiments, in order to familiarise himself with the leading properties of the chief non-metallic elements, and of the principal substances which they form by their mutual union. This portion of the book is, of course, supplementary to the work of the lecture-room, and should be studied in connexion with a manual in which the origin, properties, and relations of the various bodies are fully described. The experiments are generally of a very simple nature, and are strictly illustrative of the chemical and physical properties of the substances to which they refer. To each lesson is appended a short statement or summary of the facts which that lesson is intended to convey. The object of these resumes is to afford the student precise ideas of the nature and extent of the information which he has gleaned from the experiments he has performed. The advantages of this preliminary course are manifest.
