of the crown might be tested by such means, He thereupon made two mass es of the same weight as the crown, one of gold, the other of silver, and inn mersed them separately in vessel till- ed to the brim, measuring exactly the quantity of water that overllowed in .each case. Having found by this means what measure of the fluid an swered to the quantity of each metal, less in the case of the gold than of the silver-the bulk of the former being less, weight for weight-he next inn mersed the crown itself, and found that it caused more water to overflow than the gold, but less than the silver. Having found the difference between the two masses of pure gold and silver, in certain known proportions, he was able to compute the real quantity of each metal in the crown, and thus dis covered the fraud that had been prac- tised on the king, to whom he hurried eXclaiming, "Eureka! Eureka!" CT nave found it! l have found it!D an exclamation that has ever since been used to express eSultation over dis covery.
 Coming down now to our own time, the account of the discovery of sac charine, one of the numerous by-pro- ducts of the gas-maker's refuse, whose sweetness is three hundred times more intense than that of cane-sugar, reads almost like a romance.

Some months had passed, when one evening at tea-time he de- tected an intensely sweet flavor upon his bread and butter He traced the sweetness to his fingers, to his hands, and to his coat-sleeves; and it dawned upon him that 1t must have been de- rived from one of the new compounds which he had that day succeeded in producing. He promptly returned to his laboratory and tasted the contents of every vessel with which he had been working. His idea was correct. One of his beakers contained the sweet material

He was experimenting in the dark with a Crookes vacuum tube, which was cov- cred with some sort of cloth. A strong electrical current was passed through it, while close by was some prepared photographic paper, but no camera Next day he noticed several lines on this paper for which he could not ac- count.
