Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

This Laboratory Manual is designed to accompany the authors First Principles of Chemistry. It is, in some measure, founded on Handbook 21 of theS tate Department of Education of New York, which was prepared by the authors in the spring of 1906, and which met with such success as to lead to the writing of the First Principles of Chemistry, Such of the experiments from the Handbook as appear in the present Manual have been carefully revised and improved where experience has shown this to be desirable. A number of other experiments have been added in order to give greater freedom of selection, and to provide fully for such schools as are favored with ample time for laboratory work. The authors believe that these exercises will be found to furnish a typical range of experiments suitable for an elementary course. Though practical and industrial applications receive considerable attention, yet a sound knowledge of the fundamental facts and principles of the science is considered of most importance to the beginner, since it is only through painstaking labor along theoretical lines that the achievements of industrial chemistry have been obtained. It is hoped that theM anual will prove an attractive introduction to the experimental determination of chemical facts, and will lead the pupil to an interest in chemical theory for its own real and permanent value. The authors gratefully acknowledge indebtedness to that large body of chemistry teachers whose kind reception of the First Principles of Chemistry has encouraged them to publish the present laboratory course.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
