Through their gradations of shade, their exquisite intervals, they project in an external form that which is most inward in humour, passion, sentiment.
Siemens, is filled with attenuated matter, consisting of highly rarefied gaseous bodies including hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, and aqueous vapour; that these gaseous compounds are capable of being dissociated by radiant solar energy while in a state of extreme attenuation; and that the vapours so dissociated are drawn towards the sun in consequence of solar rotation, are flashed into flame in the photosphere, and rendered back into space in the condition of products of combustion.
It is to Pasteur, the immortal chemist, that we owe this theory, as well as that of the attenuation of viruses both of more than theoretical import, since they have given us aseptic surgery, the power of frequently preventing hydrophobia, the antitoxine treatment of diphtheria, and the ability to stay the hand of Death in the form of many a stalking pestilence.
