Beooks' (H.) Sets of sections of Woods for instruction in schools. 



['' The sections are about 2 x 4 in., and are neatly mounted between 

 plates of mica. Three sections (one cross and two longitudinal) are given 

 for each kind of wood, and these are thin enough to make their study 

 with the naked eye or with a low power very easy and instructive."]
