On page 2 of the Supplément, Laplace states that capillary action is due to "… les lois dans lesquelles l'attraction n'est sensible qu'à des distances insensibles; …" (… the laws in which attraction is sensible [significant] only at insensible [infinitesimal] distances …).
↑  In 1751, Johann Andreas Segner came to the same conclusion that Hauksbee had reached in 1709: J. A. von Segner (1751) "De figuris superficierum fluidarum" (On the shapes of liquid surfaces), Commentarii Societatis Regiae Scientiarum Gottingensis(Memoirs of the Royal Scientific Society at Göttingen), 1 : 301–372. On page 303, Segner proposes that liquids are held together by an attractive force (vim attractricem) that acts over such short distances "that no one could yet have perceived it with their senses" (… ut nullo adhuc sensu percipi poterit.).
