0'9937 = 0 , 001332 ; but standard water, by table, at 18 0, 3 lias the density 1 '02534, and 
1 '02534 + 0'00133 = 1'02667, which is the required density at 18°'3. 
Second example — Given the density at 18°'3 C. as 1'02 667, find that at 15°'56 C. 
Answer: At 18°'3 C. the density of the given water is 1 '02667 — 1'02534 = 0'00133 
heavier than the standard; hence the corresponding difference at 15°'56 C. is 
0 '00 133+ = by table to 0 '00 133 x 1 '0063 = 0 '00 134, hence the result sought = 
1-02600 + 0'00134 = 1'02734. 
Making use of Table I., Table II. has been compiled; it gives the densities of three 
waters, A, B, and C, for every whole degree Centigrade. B is the standard water of 
Table I., and its density at 15°'56 C. is 1'0'26. The density of water A is 1'025 and 
that of C is 1'027. Table III. is identical with Table II., with this difference that the 
values are given for every degree of Fahrenheit’s scale between 32° and 88°. 
By means of one or other of these tables a density observed at any temperature can 
be reduced to its value at the standard temperature of 60° F. (15°'56 C.). 
The following table has been compiled from Professor Dittma-r’s Memoir, giving the 
percentage of chlorine, or rather of halogen calculated as chlorine, in a kilogramme of 
water of different densities, and his coefficient (180'584) for the proportion of total salts 
to 100 parts of halogen calculated as chlorine. The results for chlorine have been 
reduced to their values in grammes per litre measured at 60 F., and those for the total 
salts to grammes per litre and ounces per gallon, both measured at 60° F.

One of the most interesting results of the analyses by Professor Dittmar of a very 
large number of the samples brought from different localities passed over during
