what is to-day than it did hun
dred years ago. To say that light
and sound are but forms of cleo
tricity is simply to say that we do
not know what they are. 1t is like
the companion theory that light,
sound, heat and electricity are all
varying forms of motion. The
statement may or may not be true,
but it is hardly a theory that ex-
plains the phenomena it assumes to
make Ineligible. We give name
to the unknown law of nature, but
the name leaves the law quite as
much as much a mystery as ever.
