MYSTERY OF MATTER.
Endless Routine Of the Material That
Forms Our Bodies,

Mr.. Geoffrey Martin has written a
treatise on chemistry from which is
taken this paragraph from the chapter
on Matter
The endless circulation OF mAtter
in the universe is perhaps one of the
most wonderful facts with which
chemistry has TO deal. 1t is this end
less change that causes the history Of
the most common and insignitica Mt OBJ
jects about us to be more astonishing
than any fairy tale.
What a wonderful story. for exam
pie, could be written of the material
that forms our bodies, 1t came into
existence in the immense depth of
space millions upon millions of years
ago and wandered for ages Through
darkness and void until it reached our
earth. Perhaps it fell upon the earth
In q fiery nueteorite, or perhaps it mere
~ joined the huge fire mist from which
our solid world condensed, Since then
It has run round age after age in an
endless circle of change.
First it formed part OF that vast
primevaI atmosphere that surrounded
the globe and blew in mighty winds
round our planet; then 1t was absorb
ed. into the body OF some humble living
being. and when this being died and
its body decayed the matter passed
into the rich mother earth. Thence it
passed into some plant by means OF
lis roots, and from the plant it passed
by the process OF being devoured into
the body Of some animal, and from the
animal. again 1t passed to earth and
thence to plants and animals again,
and so on through an endless cycle OF
change, coursing through the bodies OF
innumerable multitudes of living
forms, which stretch far back in
dim, amending vista into the depths OF
time.
Finally it reached man. Yes; the
very atoms that thrill and fash in our
brains and muscles once formed part
Of A living plant or animal millions OF
years ago and win again form part of
living plant or animal millions of
years hence In some form or other
the matter that now forms our bodies
will exist long after the whole present
order of creation has passed away. ln-
deed, it may well yet blow in the
winds OF worlds as yet unborn and
thrill in forms of'life not yet evolved
