This Process Causes Their Emission, as
Does Muscular Activity.
That the processes Of digestion. as
we'll as mental and muscular activity,
seem to cause the emission of N-rayS,
is the conclusion reached by NJ. Lam
bert, in France, after a series of inter-
esting experiments. He believes that
these curious rays are produced by
ferments, especially by those COR
cerned in the digestion of albuminoia
matter. In his experiments on diges-
ton. says Il writer in Harper's Week
ly. NJ. Lambert placed a small quantity
of tibrin in tubes containing in one
case activated pancreatic juice. and
in another artificial gastric Juice made
by mixing five per cent. solution of
pepsin with a four per cent. solution
of hydrochloric acid From these
tubes the N-rays were emitted, and
were detected not only by producing
increased luminescence Of a phos-
phoreScent screen. but also photo
graphically. thus removing the sub
jective element from the experiment.
AS result of these experiments, NJ.
Lambert believes that in the course
OF digestion the fbrin undergoes
strains which act 10 produce N-rays.
