Although no attempt has been made at scientific exactitude, the facts, as I hope the text will show, may be accepted as accurate. I have also tried to indicate, in some cases, the social bearing—too often overlooked— which the various industrial and commercial operations of the day have on domestic and individual life, and have endeavoured to describe correctly, as well as minutely, some of those manufactures and operations which certainly concern us all, but about which not a little ignorance generally prevails, and I shall be glad to find that these stray leaves from the mass of matter in my note-book meet with some encouragement.
