human body being composed of 76 parts
of hydrogen and water and "a parts of
solid substance, and that the prepon-
derance OF water in the system made it
necessary that it should have a chance
TO absorb more or less water. He gave
the causes that produced light and mo-

magnifying glass, that scientific men by
its aid were able to determine the vari-
Gus elements in the body, could detect
the minutest trace of poison. etc. He
related how the moon revolved on its
axis around the earth, and stated that
the motion was getting slower gradually,
that it would finally cease, when the
moon would fall to the earth, and as 1t

it would create some little stir when IL
did strike, especially if it fell anywhere
near Phoebe. He spoke of sprality as
being the law of motion, also of the law

the universe. His lecture throughout
