In this paper the author reviews the work done by chemists and the physicists in determining the relation between the chemical composition of a liquid and its rate of flow through a capillary tube. Poiseuilie ascertained, in a very accurate manner, all the physical laws relating to the rate of flow, as regulated by temperature, pressure, and dimensions of the tube; but on examining saline solutions he could make nothing of the numbers presented, because he used percentage solutions Tilt instead of solutions proportional to the equivalent of the body dissolved.
