Scientifically Accounted for, and Some
Remote Causes that Produce Pain
full Results Explained.
The following synopsis Of lecture de-
livered by DR.. Horace r. Hamilton before
the New York Society for the Promotion of
Science cont aims much that is timely
and important that it can be read with
both interest and profit:
There is probably no subject Of modern
times that has caused and is causing
greater attention than the origin of torna-
does. Scientists have studied it for the
benefit of humanity; men have investi-
gated it for the welfare of their families.
1t has been a veXed subject long consld-
cred, and through all this investigation the
cyclone has swept across the land carrying
destruction to scientists as well to the
innocent dwelers in its track. One thing,
however, is certain; the cause OF the cy-
clone must be sought far away from the
whirling body of wind itself. Its results
are powerful; its cause must also be pow
erful. Let us therefore consider few
facts. First, the appearance of cyclone
is invariably preceded by dark spots upon
the face of the sun. These spots, indicating
a disturbed condition of the solar regions,
necessarily affect the atmosphere of our
earth. An unusual generation OF heat IN
one part of the atmosphere is certain to
cause partial vacuum in another portion.
Air must rush in to fif this vacuum.
Hence the diSturbances-hencet the cyclone.
in the fact that tornadocs come during the
day and not at night. The dark spots upon
the surface of the sun, whatever they may
be, seem to cause great commot1on lfi the
atmosphere of the world, and it is almost
certain that the extremely wet weather of
the present season can be accounted Tor
on precisely this basis. Is it reasonable
to suppose that the marvellous effect OF the
sun on vegetation and life in general shall
be less than upon the atmosphere itself
through which its rays come? The cause
is remote, but the effect is here.
After describing some of tho terrible er-
fects of the cyclone, the speaker went on

through this very experience myself:
Nearly ten years ago, l was the picture of

and as strong and healthy as any man l
ever knew. When felt the symptoms L

grsvating nature, but because had never

treated myself accordingly. 1 did not be-

such aggravated symptoms. 1t never oc-
currel to me that ANALYSIS would help
solve the trouble, as did not presume my
difficulty was located in that portion of the
body. But continued to grow worse. l
