ELEÜYftlClTY. Why It Is Difficult For thi Layman ta Understand What It I. "What is frir.tj?'' is a favorite query with praiJe woo desire to "get a rise' out of a scientific man. And when lie fails to anrwer it in

the swt. r iPit fashion that he might treat t!e question "What is a biscuit?" the questioner cries oat: "Aba! You profofco t know all about electricity. Win, vou can't even toll wlwt it is!' Now, to ''tell what a thing is" that is, to define it is to state its

i relations mth something more familiar. Tho part..uiar familiar thing that the questioner is thinking of in this ease is ordinary matter. Heat has been explained to him as a vibration of material particles. Lirfit, be has been told, is

a wave motion in the ether, and he understands tho ether to be a kind of matter or a substance resembling matter in same particulars. It is not to bo denied that no such simple general relationship can be stated between elcctrieitv and matter. But, this being so, it would be just as correct to say that wc do not know what matter is as , that.we do not know what electricity is. As a matter of f r, we do not know what matter i fka

One disputant is talking about tlje electricity of the physical and the other about that of the engineer; hence their dispute is merely a matter of definition, though they do not know it.
