Abstract
ALLOW me to correct an absurd typographical blunder in the account of my anthropometric laboratory at the Healtheries, which appears in Mr. Ernest Hart's lecture at the Society of Arts. It originally occurred in the Journal of the Society of Arts, whence it was copied into your columns (p. 142) last week. The effect of the error to which I refer is to make the statement that the cost of measuring each person at the laboratory in seventeen different ways was 3l., whereas it should have been 3d. The subsequent argument, based on the extreme cheapness of the process, becomes in consequence unintelligible. I write myself to make the correction, because the part of Mr. Ernest Hart's address which refers to the anthropometric laboratory was written for him, at his request, by myself. I regret I had not an opportunity of revising it in proof.
