Tom and Some Other Girls: A Public School Story by Mrs. George de Horne Vaizey
A plaintive sob greeted his words from the neighbourhood of the sofa. For once in her life Mrs Chester’s kindly, good-tempered face had lost its smiles, and was puckered up into lines of distress. She let one fat, be-ringed hand drop to her side and wander restlessly over the satin skirt in search of a pocket. Presently out came a handkerchief, which was applied to each eye in turn, and came away bedewed with tears.

Acids, Alkalis and Salts (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from Acids, Alkalis and Salts Acids. A vague hint from Nature gave mankind the first indication of the existence of acids. The juice pressed from ripe grapes is a sweetish liquid. If it is kept for some time, the sweetness goes, and the liquid acquires a burning taste. If kept still longer, the burning taste is lost, and in its place a sharp acid ?avour, not entirely displeasing to the palate, is devel oped. The liquid obtained in this way is now called wine vinegar; the particular substance which gives it its characteristic taste is acetic acid.

Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references.
