This shows the inapplicability of the chloride of lime (Stenhouse’s) 
test in all cases, for many of the above are excellent dye-lichens. 
It therefore cannot safely or uniformly be relied on as a calorimeter ; 
this may arise from the absence of certain conditions necessary for 
the development of its reaction with orseilic acid, &c.
