[Transcribers' Note]

Punctuation and spelling were made consistent when a predominant preference was found in this book; otherwise they were not changed.

Simple typographical errors were corrected; occasional unbalanced quotation marks retained.

Ambiguous hyphens at the ends of lines were retained.

Some illustrations have been slightly repositioned to improve their appearance in eBooks.

Page [76]: "eight tenths of an inch" may be a misprint for "eight ten-thousandths of an inch".
