    desire to aid in arresting it, is the editor's only apology for an oc- casional severity of comment found in this Fourth Part. The editor's name is sometimes introduced for various reasons, unnecessary to state; but at no time with the intention of arrogat- ing to himself the exclusive right to ideas which, very probably, have also occurred to others, and been acted upon within the limits of their practice. It is altogether unimportant who discovers or makes known a process or material; it is very important that it should not be lost to the profession, even at the rather mortifying risk of repeating an old story. The editor acknowledges the courtesy of Dr. Samuel S. White, in tendering the free use of so many of his valuable wood-cuts. He would also express his indebtedness to the admirable treatise of Prof. Joseph Richardson for a number of very fine illustrations. To Prof. Wildman, and others, he has acknowledged his obliga- tions in the text. He submits to the Profession the Tenth Edition of Harris's Principles and Practice of Dentistry, hoping that it will be found to meet the demands of the present advanced state of Dental Sci- ence, and that it will continue to be what its distinguished author designed it — a text-book for the student, and a useful guide and companion for the experienced practitioner.
