Excerpt from The Elements of Structural Botany: With Special Reference to the Study of Canadian Plants, to Which Is Added a Selection of Examination Papers Elements of Vegetable Histology are treated Of in as simple and brief a manner as was thought to be con sistent with the nature Of the subject. The Schedules, the use Of which is very strongly recommended, were devised by the late Professor Hens low, of Cambridge University, to fix the attention of pupils upon the salient points Of structure. They will be found invaluable to the teacher as tests of the accu racy Oi his pupils' knowledge. The cost of striking Off a few hundred blanks of each sort would be very trifling, and not worth considering in view Of the resulting advantages. The wood-cuts are from drawings from living speci mens, except in two or three instances where assistance was derived from cuts Of well-known excellence in standard works on Botany. It need hardly be said that the engravings are not in any sense intended to take the place Of the living plants. They are designed chiefly to assist in the examination of the latter, and whilst it is hoped that they may be of service to those who may desire to read the book in the winter season, it is strongly urged upon teachers and students not to be satisfied with them as long as the plants themselves are available. The works most frequently consulted in the prepar ation Of the text are those of Hooker, Gray, Bentley and Oliver.
