hath trfcd, tte B^Ees to^ as much ^a!terf as Bones can 
hc^ iftbef be left to feak in Water^ as they do for the 
Meat at Sea, tliey will be fit to make frefh Geily feveral 
times: fo that all the Bones that are thrown away as ule^ 
lefs ia long Voyages, may henceforth ferve to make a 
Food wholfomer and better, than the Meat it felf. The 
Author doth afterwards relate, how thefe Gcllies may be, 
applyed for the prelerving of Summer Fruits : Upon this 
he alledgeth many Experiments, which give him Occafi- 
pn to make feveral Obfervations ; as for £xample, he 
faith that Strawberries t\x?it are brought up by Art in the 
latter Ssafbn, have much lefs Spirits, than thofe that ripen 
in the Spring of the Year : So that fome Straivberries which 
he had thus fhitf up in the Month of October, became ve- 
ry fower in 3 Months time; whereas other Strarvherries 
which he fhut up in the Month of June, having been 
r kept 8 Months, were . not fower at all, but had given a 
Vmous Taft to the Gelly : He doth afterwards impart his 
Way for making ^nd clarifying Gellies, which hath gi- 
ven him Occafion to contrive two Engines for filtrating 
quickly, and a contrivance how to make Evaporations 
quicker, and with lefs Fire than they ufe to be done, and 
thefe are very plainly defcribed in the Book. He gives alio 
thedelcriptionof an Engine for diftiling fer defcenftmm 
ievqral degrees of Rarefa£tion andCondenfation cf Air ; 
aod he gives an Ac^count of fome Experiments which he 
hath already made with this Inftrument, from whence it 
appears, that in fome Cafes the Condenfation of the 
Air ^^^ili be of great advantage for a quick Diftillation.
