Next in importance to "Andrea" stands "An Epistle," reciting the experiences of Karshish, an Arab physician, which is one of the best examples of Browning's peculiar method of presenting the truth. The half-scoffing, half-earnest, and wholly bewildered state of this Oriental scientist's mind is clearly indicated between the lines of his letter to his old master.
Pointedly he said: "You, Master Leithgow, have the brains but not the audacity. I have the audacity and the brains now that you are here." Cold prickles of fear chased down Carse's and the scientist's spine at this obscure threat.
All the rest of the night he was wondering whether Mr. Henderson had some strange creature hidden aboard the Mermaid. He feared lest the old scientist's mind might be affected and, in his wildness he had made some infernal machine that would, in time, blow the whole ship apart. But tired nature asserted itself at last, and, weary with vain imaginings, Mark fell into a slumber.
"Hartson, you suggested that I come, which I was glad to do. Suppose you start by telling us what you had in mind." "Very well, Steve." The scientist's glance embraced his colleagues and the boys. "We have a problem that must be solved before we can continue with calm and objective minds on the project that faces us.
It is this magnet which forms the basis of every telegraph instrument is essential to it, and is the foundation of the entire electrical art. Let it be added to this great scientist's credit that he never sought to patent any of his inventions, giving them, as Franklin had done, free to all the world.
I was a little tired from yesterday, and the dry heat gave me rather the sensation of being a scientist's field mouse in a vacuum, so that I should have dreaded even a short journey if we hadn't been making it by water.
They all donned their asbestos gloves and foot coverings under the professor's directions and put on the huge black goggles that had been brought along at the scientist's directions. "I guess we'd scare that wild man into conniption fits if he could see us now," chuckled Tom, surveying his mates as they started out for the black barren. "Yes, we look like a lot of men from Mars," agreed Dick.
"Inquests!" said George. "Horrid!" said Amaryllis. "Rescued Damsel!" said Lady Elizabeth. "Scientist's Daughter Abducted!" cackled Caldegard. "Lightning Pursuit by Gallant Airman!" boomed George. "Dope Gang Baffled!" chuckled Randal. "And we understand that the interesting heroine will shortly reward " Lady Elizabeth shot a keen glance at Amaryllis and Amaryllis answered it boldly.
It was reserved for the distinguished English naturalist Newport to show that this supposed Louse was the first state of the Oil-beetles. Some observations of my own will fill a few lacunæ in the English scientist's monograph. I will therefore sketch the evolution of the Oil-beetles, using Newport's work where my own observations are defective.
The man of affairs, observing that the social scientist knows only from the outside what he knows, in part at least, from the inside, recognizing that the social scientist's hypothesis is not in the nature of things susceptible of laboratory proof, and that verification is possible only in the "real" world, has developed a rather low opinion of social scientists who do not share his views of public policy.
