The formula of this substance is NaHSO , as distinguished from what is commonly known as hyposulphite of soda, Na S O . It is produced by the action of zinc-dust on the acid sulphite of soda.
For of all Bromides Adam was the progenitor, while Eve was a Sulphite from the first! Alice in Wonderland, however, is the modern type a Bromide amidst Sulphites. What, then, is a Sulphite? Ah, that is harder to define. A Sulphite is a person who does his own thinking, he is a person who has surprises up his sleeve. He is explosive.
"These are from Sudbury," the latter was saying, "where they waste thousands of tons of sulphur a year, and it costs them a lot to waste it. I want the sulphur to make sulphite pulp." "Yes?" The reply was a little uncertain. "To buy what we want is out of the question at the present price.
This salt dissolves readily in cold water; the solution is decomposed by strong potassic hydrate, baric sulphite, hyposulphites, and sulphur being formed. By a similar method of procedure the author obtained potassium pentathionate, anhydrous, and with one or two molecules of water. The author promises some further results with some other salts of the higher thionates.
The sulphite process was originally invented by a celebrated Philadelphia chemist, but was perfected in Europe. The "cooking," or boiling, to which the wood is subjected in both the soda and sulphite processes, effects a complete separation of all resinous and foreign substances from the fine and true cell tissue, or cellulose, which is left a pure fiber, ready for use as described.
Each expresses the crystallized thought of her particular bromidic group. Done, then, by a person who is herself a Sulphite par excellence, the result is droll. "One has," says Emerson, "but to remove an object from its environment and instantly it becomes comic." The same thing is done less artistically every day upon the vaudeville stage.
Though his view he eccentric it is his own view, and though you may avoid him, you can never forget or ignore him. And so, too, using an optical symbolism, we may speak of the Sulphite as being refractive every impression made upon him is split up into component rays of thought he sees beauty, humor, pathos, horror, and sublimity.
When they present a gift, it has either rhyme or reason to it. Their letters are not passed about to be read by the family. Hamlet was a Sulphite; Polonius a Bromide. Becky Sharp was sulphitic; Amelia Sedley bromidic. So we might follow the line of cleavage between the two groups in Art, Religion and Politics.
So much comment has been made upon the terminology of this theory that it should be stated frankly, at the start, that the words Sulphite and Bromide, and their derivatives, sulphitic and bromidic, are themselves so sulphitic that they are not susceptible of explanation. In a word, they are empirical, although, accidentally it might seem, they do appeal and convince the most skeptical.
Sulphite of soda is now very commonly stirred into cider, to keep it from fermenting further. Sugar of lead is stirred into wines to make them clear, and to keep them sweet. And so on, through the whole long list. It is a curious instance of people's quiet acknowledgment of their own foolishness, that a popular form of the invitation to take a drink is, "Come and h'ist in some pizen!"
