The Science ofAlchemy

THE ancient science of alchemy never attained
its object, but from the discoveries which
came alcng incidental to the real purposes of
the alchemist founded the great science Of
chemistry.
The ancient alchenlists believed that there
existed solid red substance which was called
philosophers stone or the grand elixer which
was a cure-an for disease and at the same time
had the property of changing base metals into
gold when the philosophers stone and the base
metal were melted together. Another similar
substance. but white IN color, was supposed to
exist which would by the same means produce
silver.
, For many generations the alchemists worked
at their science, which was recognized and
fostered by the rulers of many lands Though
they never produced their philosophers stone
nor their grand elixir, what they did discover in
time came to be worth more than all the gold
they had hoped to produce, and much of medi-
cal science is predicated upon the truths un-
earthed by the alchemists.
