CHEMICAL & PHILOSOPHICAL APPARATUS

SUITABLE FOR THE EXHIBITION OF

Class Experiments in Scientific Lectures.

JOHN J. GRIFFIN, F.C.S., begs leave to direct the attention of Lecturers on Experimental Science to his extensive Collection of Apparatus, adapted for the Exhibition of Popular Experiments illustrative of the leading: principles of Mechanical, Physical, and Chemical Science; particularly of

  • CHEMISTRY
  • HEAT
  • PNEUMATICS
  • HYDROSTATICS
  • MECHANICS
  • ELECTRICITY
  • GALVANISM
  • MAGNETISM
  • ELECTRO-MAGNETISM
  • OPTICS

The Instruments can be supplied singly, or in sets adapted to specific Lectures, or (or the illustration of each particular Science. The collection embraces many of the instruments described in Dr. Faraday's Lectures on the Various Forces of Matter.

*** A printed Catalogue may be had of a Series of Collections of Cheap Apparatus suitable for use in Elementary Schools. A set of these Instruments is exhibited in the South Kensington Museum.
