ment of the last half century. The first centile laboratory, states Prof. W. H. Welch, was the anatomical laboratory. For over 800 years there has been some practical instruction in anatomy, and for over 300 years thor kere existed anatomical laboratories for teaching and investigation, although only thora of the pre sant century zueet our fieas of what an anatomical laboratory should be. Methodical experimentation in the solences of nature was defiately established by Galileo, and ex parimental physics acquired a kind of labion- able vague among his contemporaries and sncccesors of Lae soventezta century. In the last contas incomplets cabinets of physical apparatu mera used for illustrating hectares. The beginnings of the modern physical labora tory, however, were not nude until about 1845, when Led Helvin, then William Thomson, established physical laboratory for the University of Glasgow in an old win collar of a boues. The chemical laboratory traces its origin to the laboratories of the alchemist
