feels that he is doing them a service that will be appreciated. He offers
no apology for publishing what he believes to be new and valuable truths,
after having demonstrated, to his own satisfaction, their practical value.
He claims that the truths set forth in Part I., Chapters I., II., and V. are his
by right of discovery and development; and that there is enough new in
Chapters III., IV., and VI. being placed in Partto justify their I. In estab-
lishing the practical value of what is taught in Part I., the author is in-
debted to Dr. George H. Price for earnest and efficient cooperation.
Part II. is given as an expression of the author's views on the two long-
studied subjects treated therein.
Part III. contains brief descriptions of five operations which are the au-
thor's either by device or modification.
In the body author has mentioned by name those toof this book, the
"whom he felt speciallv indebted for aid while weaving his webs of thought."
It only remains for him acknowledge the aid rendered him by his brother,to
Prof. G. M. Savage, in the detection and correction of errors in both copy
and proof; and great Publishing House,to thank the several persons, in the
to whom was faithfulness.intrusted the mechanical work, for their
