effect they were productive of was wholey of in the
side of disadvantage.

In respect of abbreviation as condensation it was not
productive of any advantage. The giving lodgement to each
one of these signs a receptacle, of the same form for each
was, or in the case of a Genealogical Table it is believed, or at any rate for illustration may
be conceived to have been, provided. But within every
such receptacle at the name of substance in question
expressed in ordinary letter press might have been included
and as such form and size size as to be altogether
as conspicuous — as readily apprehensible
as the new sign for the giving lodgment to which it was
employed.

imposters the obstruction

In the infancy of Chemistry, when as yet she it was a

or set of special signs were employed for the designation
of the such of the Metals as were then known,
together with some others of the simple or supposed simple
