SCIENCE
Temperatures

Tho Thermometer is 80 importan,
and necessary for n variety OF uses
that 1t is strange its inventor IN I'm.
known.
The use OF water thermometer
is ascribed to Calico. IL is known
that Cornelius van Drebbel made
an alcohol thermometer by making
tho melting point of Ice his zero
and the boiling point of water 100
This is called the Contegradc sys.
tenn and II is used everywhere, ox,
.cept in England and the United
States. Here the Fahrenheit sys
tenn is used. except in scientific
work.
Without the thermometer science
could not have progressed as It has
an dmcdlcine would have remained
In very backward state. There
also are instruments that are vari
atlons OF the thermometer. For
measuring very small differences In
temperature the electric thernioniel
Is used, while for high temperatures
