The books composing the library are intended to be: educational, and progressing from the simple to the more complex subjects; plain books for those already engaged, or soon to be, in the practical application of the theory of mechanics; each volume is complete in itself, while progressive in the series. The books are each supplied with a ready reference index, which enables the quick use of their contents.

The volumes are strongly and handsomely bound in black cloth, with titles and edges in gold; they contain 1,204 pages, 1,244 illustrations, many of which are full pages, with 3,000 ready references; they are printed on fine surface paper with large, clear type. Each book stands 81⁄2 inches in height, and the three, packed for shipment, weigh over 71⁄2 lbs. No works of equal value have ever been offered to the machinists' and allied trades, and no one, from the superintendent and owner to the apprentice, can afford considering the price and terms, to be without them.

LITERATURE-(Concluded)

as a guide to the better understanding of the polariscope as a practical laboratory tool. The work takes up, at first, the fundamental principles of optical analysis, and next describes the polariscope and the saccharimeter and their laboratory uses, and also includes notes in regard to special instruments. Considerable space is devoted to sugar-house and refining methods, and the chemical methods of determining sugars and also starch and starch products. An important chapter is on the application of the polariscope in scientific research, and the book concludes with a large number of useful tables in connection with sugar analyses. The book will be found very useful to students in this line of work, as it contains a great deal of information which was previously available only by searching through a large amount of literature on analytical chemistry.

Transmission of Heat Through Cold-Storage Insulation. By Chas. P. Paulding, M. E. Cloth. 42 Pages, 5 by 7 1-2 inches. Illustrated. Published by D. Van Nostrand Co., New York. Price $1.00 net.

THIS work comprises formulæ, principles, and data relating to insulation, and is written as a manual for refrigerating engineers. The text takes up the subjects of radiation, air contact, conduction, and contains formulæ for homogeneous walls, compound walls, walls with air spaces, and insulation of brine pipes. The mathematical treatment is simple, and is based on the laws and experiments of Péclet. The book contains considerable useful data applicable to the modern practice of refrigeration.

A Course in Tinning. By W. D. Browning, M. E. Pages 14, 6 by 9 inches. Published by the Browning Press, Cleveland, Ohio. Price, Cloth 50 cents; Paper 30 cents.

THIS work is supplementary to the course in Mechanical Drawing and gives 5 plates for a course in tinning, together with suggestions for finishing in color. The book is illustrated by a number of colored plates. It has been prepared for schools and colleges where only a few plates are introduced into the regular drawing course, and contains brief instructions for rendering drawings in wash.
