Abstract
“THE energies of scientific men have been taxed to devise new and rapid methods of chemical analysis to meet the wants of these high pressure times” so wrote Francis Sutton seventy years ago: it might have been written by Dr. Mitchell to-day with equal truth. The output of analytical methods is more numerous than ever, and personal experience of all those described is no longer possible; but Dr. MitchelFs reputation is such as to ensure that all the methods described are trustworthy.
