Book excerpt: Excerpt from Art of Manufacturing Soap and Candles: Including the Most Recent Discoveries, Embracing All Kinds of Ordinary Hard, Soft, and Toilet Soaps, Especially Those Made by the Cold Process, the Modes of Detecting Frauds, and the Making of Tallow and Composite Candles IN preparing this work, it was not my intention to publish a mere collection of the rich and scattered materials, which literature has furnished on the sub ject treated (however acceptable it might have been in itself), but to give a clear and concise account of the art of soap and candle making as is now prac tised. And as my principal design has been to render this volume practical in its character, I have not con fined my remarks simply to the manufacture of these articles, but added appropriate illustrations and oriti cal explanations of the various manipulations and mechanical arrangements by which they are effected, thus compiling, instead of a dry compendium of facts, a condensed narrative, both instructive and interest ing to the reader, in which are, moreover, introduced matter never previously published.
