MODERN SCIENCE.
His work may be said to mark the
beginning OF modern science, with It's
tendency toward practically and eX-
pertinent Instead Of studying away
from nature he urged that nature be
sought after, and carefully observed
and studied, not only that men might
know more Of things around them, but
that they might apply more thoroughly
than before, natural principles to their
own condition and surroundings This
idea enlarged by succeeding philos-
ophers has led to the development
through painstaking effort and eNperi-
mentauon, Of distinct and accurate de-
partmeuts of physical science. the
| principles OF which are being applied

comforts
FOR MANS BENEFIT.
II can not better illustrate my mean

| ing instance Of the application OF the
| truths OF science TO mans benefit. The
| principles OF the sciences of physics
| ana chemistry are being applied to
| travel, and the transmission OF power
/ and intelligence. II is Within the
| memory of many Of us here, when cleo
tricli% hrst came to be applied 70 the
! propelling OF cars, the running Of ma
/ chlnyry and the transmission Of the
! human voice. But the laws by which
| these things are done had been dis
! covered by centuries Of patient re.
! search and experiment Indeed. this
| one department alone Of the science Of
! physics, Is broad enough TO require all
! the attention Of the brightest minds,
! for IFS development and application.
