Tbs CoioE OF TIE SEA--Ehe rich blue color
often seen in masses Of water Is to be accounted
for by the action Of the suspended particles IN
the fluid on the light trayersing it. To under
stand how the color may vary, 1t Is necessary to
recall for a moment the composition Of sunlight.
When such light Is passed through triangular
column Of glass or optical prism. 1t Is broken up
into the seven prismatie eolors, viz red, orauge.
yellow, green, blue. indigo. and violet. When
the light falls en- water Of sufficient depth il is
also decomposed or broken up; the red rays of
light are absorbed near the sur;ace Of the water
and disappear. while the other colorad rays pass
to greater depth. one after another being lost
il their proper order, viz, red. orange. yellow,
green. bue. indigo, until at Inst there is a COM
plete extinction Of light if the water is free from
solid particles
The presence of minute particles. however
causes part Of the light to he reflected and
according as this reflected light has come from
various depths so will its color vary. If, for ex-
ample, the particles are large, and freely reflect
from moderate depth, while they prevent refec-
ton from greater depth, the color will be green.
while if they are minute and the reflection Is
from great depth, the color will be blue.
In the experimental examiuatlon of this sub
ject Prof Tyndale reports that while making a
trip in the steamer Urgent. he caused bis assist
