And then, as the cold earthy atmosphere was beginning to make him sweat, the son of the soil climbed out again. "Great Cæsar!" exclaimed Haigh, when the narrative had reached this point. "I'm beginning to have an inkling of how it was all worked out. If that chap photographed the inscription by magnesium flashlight, I verily believe I know where the plates But don't let me interrupt yet.
The calculi in this case consisted chiefly of phosphate of magnesium and ammonium. Cordier of Kansas City, Mo., successfully removed a renal calculus weighing over three ounces from a woman of forty-two. The accompanying illustration shows the actual size of the calculus. At the University College Hospital, London, there are exhibited 485 gall-stones that were found postmortem in a gall-bladder.
We perform our nocturnal tasks, in front of and behind the firing trench, amid a perfect hail of star-shells and magnesium lights, topped up at times by a searchlight all supplied by our obliging friend the Hun. We, on our part, do our best to return these graceful compliments. The curious and uncanny part of it all is that there is no firing.
Black paper is more absorbent than white for these rays; and the consequence is, that with it the suddenness and vigour of the combustion are augmented. Zinc is burnt up at the same place, magnesium bursts into vivid combustion, while a sheet of platinized platinum, placed at the focus, is heated to whiteness.
"We sent for you," he said, "because we are looking for two men who lit the magnesium light which directed the Zeppelin last night to this locality. One of them lies on the lawn there, with a bullet through his brain. We are still looking for the other." "Do you imagine that I can be of any assistance to you?" Granet asked. "That is our impression," Major Thomson admitted.
Nine elements among them iron, sodium, calcium, and magnesium were recognised by Huggins as having stamped their signature on the spectrum of Aldebaran; while the existence in Sirius, and nearly all the other stars inspected, of hydrogen, together with sundry metals, was rendered certain or highly probable.
Siberia, like Patagonia, appears to have been recently elevated above the waters of the sea. In both countries the salt-lakes occupy shallow depressions in the plains; in both the mud on the borders is black and fetid; beneath the crust of common salt, sulphate of soda or of magnesium occurs, imperfectly crystallized; and in both, the muddy sand is mixed with lentils of gypsum. New Philos.
The sculptor led the way into the presence of Athor, and stepped aside. The scribe halted and gazed without sound or movement petrified with amazement. Before him, in hue and quiescence was a statue in stone in all other respects, a human being. The figure was of white magnesium limestone, and stood upon rock yet unhewn. The ritual had been trampled into the dust.
He thought of Father Roland and of the mysterious room in the Château, where he worshipped at the shrine of a woman and a child who were gone. He clenched his hands, and stopped himself. What had leapt into his mind was as startling to his inner consciousness as the unexpected flash of magnesium in a dark room.
Other elements having two-handed atoms are magnesium and calcium. Strange to say, the sulfur atom has six hands but sometimes uses only two, the others seemingly being clasped together in pairs. I will write it out for you, thus: Hydrogen sulfid: H-S-H or H2S Sulfur dioxid: O=S=0 or S02
