D., Physician and Auther, of Edinburgh University. the Harmsworth -Self-Educator Magazine by special & 5 3 arrangement.) Copyright, 1907, International Publications, No. 2fritth avenue, New York. HE atomle theory regards matter as being built up cf minute particles, which are called atoms, a name“which Iterally means “uncut” or In- Givisible; and {t assumes that the difference between one element and another—the difference, say, between gold and oxygen—ts due to « Aifference in the nature of the ntoma-in each case. Further, we aa- xume that every atom of gold Is exactly the same as all other atoms ery atom of carbon exactly the same aa all other atomis of carbon, and + that this holds true whether the carbou bo situated In the mun dr in the human ody, or in a comet or anywhere cise. An ciement or elemontary rubstance Is one which conalsts of an Indefinite number-of atoms of the same kind. A com- Pound consists of atoms of at least two kinda, ‘ Are we to say, then, that a compound is simply a mixture? This ts very far ftom belng the case. Let us take famillar instances, air and water. Among thd elements in the air, for instance, are oxygen and nitrogen. These are mixed, but not combined. Dut{ the substance we call water also consists of two gases—oxy- gen and hydrogen—yet St displays none of the (yroperties that we attribate to either of these elements, nor dees it displiy '& adtt of ayérage or blend between them. Its totaly different. i The Chemistry of Water. © thts case furnishes us with a particdlarly good instance of the dlffer- ¢ a compound und a\mixture. It ls quite an easy thing to measure out a certain quantity of hydrogen and a certain quantity of oxygen, and to mix them -together in nm tube. The result Js s{mply a mixture of two transparent » pases.

This drop of watdt consists of the very gases that were’ present 'dnthe mixture, and can, If necessary, be decomposed, with the reproduction of the mixture as before, What, then, constitutes the essential difference—a dif- ference which, in point of fact, ts very great—between a mixture of oxygen and ydrogen on the one hand and a compound of oxygen and hydrogen on the other hand? 3 : In order to answer this question we must consider a new conception whish ts UST A MINUTE — Must FINISH THIS MANUSCRIPT, ATIALGAIATED HUS BANOS COMMITTEE “represented by the word moleciie—iterally, @ Htthe Mass. Thia word used oflen *&o Be employed when atoms were meant. Let us take, for instance, the gas hydrogen, which we believe to be composed of a number of atoms all exactly similar, We find reason to belleve that these atoms do not go about singly, but that they pair with one another, and each pair of hydrogen atoms conatitsites a little system of Its own, which we now call +a molegule. In the case of the mixture of hydrogen and oxygen, we should find, if our eyes were keen enough, simply a collection of molecules, conetsting etther of two In'drogen atoms linked together or of two oxygen toms lnked together. J Pixture of Molecules. But if we madé a similar inspection of the water which is formed when « spark {s prwsed through the mixture, we should find the essential difference be- tween a mixture and a compound. The mixture was simply a mixture of mole- *, cules of hydrogen and molecules of oxygen—each molecule, as we have said, con- ‘ eisting of two eimilar atoms; but in the compound, just because it is a compound +and not a mixture, there is no such mixture of molecules. All the motecules of a compound are of the name kind, just as all the mole- {cules of an eleenent are of the same kind; but whereas the molecules of an ole- |, Ment are agmpoved of eimilar atoms, the molecules of @ compound are formed of {@iastmilar atoms. Whereas the mixture of hydrogen and oxygen consisted of a number of molecules containing two atoms of hydrogen and a number of mole- cules containing two atoms of oxygen, the compound called water formed from that mixture contains only one kind of molecule, compounded of atoms of oxy- gen end atoms of hydrogen, while no molecules consisting onlyof hydrogen toms or only of oxygen atoms would be found in it. ?

So runs the old I Proverb, But {t was written before the modern girl began to faugh. Laughter, when it is natural and spontaneous and not too boisterous, is one of the most at- tractive things about a girl, and many a man's heart has ‘been made to beat quicker thereby, But the affected laugh,» the laugh of derision, or the laugh that cloaks embarrasa- ment—these cachinnations never won a man’s heart, nor had any effect on him other than repulsion, A laugh may be Cupid's stanchest ally or Hts worst foo. The screeching laugh that sounds like @ cross between an auto horn and a hoot-owl and displays a row of gums is a thing of horror. Avoid it. Be natural. Above af! be natural in your laughter.
