It Is a Mystery to Science, and the Man Who Is Able te Penetrate That Mytsry Will Be In a Position to Reve lutloniz This Planet of Ours. This is not an Aesop fable, although It has a moral. There are two things In whose presence science stands wondering and, abashed the little glowworm (or the yet tinier firefly) and the mighty comet arching . the sky with its glimmering train. Each of them holds the same secret bow to make light without heat The man who gets that secret will revolutionize the planet. The late president. of the Royal Astronomical Society of Great Britain referred to the value of the comet's secret in his retiring - address. He thought that we do not sufficiently appreciate the wondrous spectacle of a comet's talL It shows us hundreds of, billions of cubic miles of space simultaneously glowing with . luminosity whose origin Is a mystery. It Is a gigantic experiment In a branch of physics of which we as yet know, very little. The comet Is immersed in what we may well regard as a vacuum; at least it Is a far more perfect vacuum than we can produce. Yet the persistent glow of the comet's tall shews that there is no real vacuum there, bat a rast quantity of extremely attenuated matter which no doubt is the cause of the luminosity. - We ought. Professor Newall thinks, to awake to the Importance of this hint. -Who knows, he says, "whether, if we could discover a method of disrupting gases and vapors in ultra vacuous spaces artificially maintained on earth, we should not have a method of artificial Illumination as economical as that of the glowworm and as brilliant as Is needed for our nocturnal lifer This thing may really be within oar reach, although at the present time we cannot even suggest to ourselves exactly how it Is to be attained. .But the tendency of recent investigation Is In that direction. As Sir John Herschel said of another discovery which was Just at the door, -We can feel It trembling along the farreachlng line of our analysis." : There are not a few men, who are regarded by their harder headed scientific brethren as "dreamers,' who picture to themselves a tut coming time when we shall not only obtain light at as, cheap a rate as the firefly has it; but when we shall hare tapped the exhaustless stores of energy that sleep all around us In nature. , - We are like one In a dream suspended In the midst of a vast workshop crowded with multitudinous machines, an whirling and flattering in a storm of energies, bat which he can neither control nor onderstand. If we coQhf seo these things they might terrify vs. as the dreamer Is terrified by the whirring belts and spinning wheels of his vision, seeming to grasp at his life. If the scientific investigator to establish a raises d'etre la the of the pobUc. which cannot follow either his prscsssss er his resalta, he has only to point to the fact that the greatest practical discoveries of modern times bare corns oat of the laboratories frona things as tocoinprehenslble
