Excerpt from Outlines of Stationery Testing: A Practical Manual
The object of this little book is to present in a concise and thoroughly practical form the essential points of stationery testing. All the works with which I am acquainted on the subjects dealt with in the following pages contain a considerable mass of detail which, though no doubt of interest from the point of View of the analyst, is yet both unnecessary to the ordinary practical worker and likely to confuse by obscuring the essentials.
AS far as possible all purely theoretical con siderations, as well as descriptions of any but the most definitely satisfactory methods, have been eliminated. Descriptions of apparatus are only intended as a guide to the general principles of their operation. In all cases the chemical processes described are those which require the simplest pos sible apparatus and the least possible knowledge and experience of analytical manipulation.
