Síða 207 - It is conceivable that the various kinds of matter, now recognized as different elementary substances, may possess one and the same ultimate or atomic molecule existing in different conditions of movement. The essential unity of matter is an hypothesis in harmony with the equal action of gravity upon all bodies. We know the anxiety with which this point was investigated by Newton, and the care he took to ascertain that every kind of substance, ' metals, stones, woods, grain, salts, animal substances,'...
Síða 154 - Last of all came an enthusiastic vote of thanks to the President, for his conduct in the chair, and the members of the Conference then separated, not without some misgivings as to the weather for the evening excursion.
Síða 214 - They will never change colour or decay, and will be found superior to any Teeth ever before used. This method does not require the Extraction of Roots, or any painful operation and will support and preserve Teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restore Articulation and Mastication.
Síða 255 - Any medical officer of health or inspector of nuisances may at all reasonable times inspect and examine any animal carcase meat poultry game flesh fish fruit vegetables corn bread flour or milk exposed for sale, or deposited in any place for the purpose of sale, or of preparation for sale, and intended for the food of man...
Síða 112 - This is done by rubbing it, chiefly on the elbows and knees, with the strongest brine, close by a hot fire. You must stand over them with a cane, or coax them by a promise of a halfpenny, &c.
Síða 207 - To the preceding statements respecting atomic and molecular mobility, it remains to be added that the hypothesis admits of another expression, As in the theory of light we have...
Síða 31 - Having been called to women in the beginning of labor, and finding by an examination that the head of the child presented, I have left them for several hours, till the first changes were naturally made. When I have examined them on my return, I have found the arm of the child presenting, the head being departed out of my reach.
Síða 214 - Ladies' use, before and after accouchement, are admirably adapted for giving adequate support with extreme lightness — a point little attended to in the comparatively clumsy contrivances and fabrics hitherto employed.
Síða 208 - Lastly, molecular or diffusive mobility has an obvious bearing upon the communication of heat to gases by contact with liquid or solid surfaces. The impact of the gaseous molecule, upon a surface possessing a different temperature, appears to be the condition for the transference of heat, or the heat movement, from one to the other. The more rapid the molecular movement of the gas the more frequent the contact, with consequent communication of heat. Hence, probably, the great cooling power of hydrogen...
Síða 184 - The molecular mobility of gases is here considered in reference chiefly to the passage of gases, under pressure, through a thin porous plate or septum, and to the partial separation of mixed gases which can be effected, as will be shown, by such means. The investigation arose out of a renewed and somewhat protracted inquiry regarding the diffusion of...
