WHAT is WATER?

} Water as you know, is one of the
most plentiful of substances. It ex-
lists almost everywhere on earth: 1t
is In the air, In our foods, in rivers,
lakes and oceans: it forms the greater
part Of the weight of plants and all
animals; it is found even in deserts, in
the rocks and in rivers and lakes deep
under the surface of the earth. We
use 1t every day in many ways and We
are so familiar with its appearance and
Its taste. But what is it? Is 1t lust
water or is it made" of some other
substances?
1t may seem strange to you that this
useful and necessary liquid is made"
of simpler things; it may seem stranger
still when you are told that 1t is formed
Df two invisible. tasteless gases. But it
Is even SO. For nature made water, all
water. of oxygen and hydogen gas, one
part of the former and two parts Of the
latter. And man has succeeded in i'm
gtating nature by making water in the
Same way. All that Is necessary in the
making of water is to mix these two
gases, oxygen and hydrogen. in strong
glass bottle or metallic tank, and then
cause them to unite. This is generally
done by means of an electric spark set
OF within the container. There is a
violent explosion when the spark ignites
the mixture and few drops of water
are produced.
But we can prove that water is COM
posed of these two gases by analyzine
st: that is. by separating the liquid into
dts simpler parts. It is done by means
Df the glass apparatus you see pictured
here. Pure water is poured into the

The sun rose on this scene, no one
