Sida 564 - THE ATOLL OF FUNAFUTI, BORINGS INTO A CORAL REEF AND THE RESULTS. Price 30s. To Fellows of the Royal Society, 20s.
Sida 767 - Premium to the author of any important discovery or useful improvement in light or heat, which shall have been made and published by printing, or in any way made known to the public, in any part of the continent of America, or any of the American islands; preference always being given to such discoveries as, in the opinion of the Academy, shall tend most to promote the good of mankind...
Sida 502 - If the drugs were to be applied after the cutting and burning, it would be clear that we had to do with something applied to the lacerated parts to aid the healing process, a custom which appears to have been very old.* But it is to be noted that Lucian instructs his friend first to sprinkle on the drugs, and then to hold the knife and cautery in readiness. After carefully weighing all the evidence, I think that we may safely conclude (1) that the use of mandragora as an anaesthetic before surgical...
Sida 377 - CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE RESEARCH LABORATORY OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY OF THE MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY. — No.
Sida 743 - We need, then, a school, not for boys, but for young men whose early education is completed, either in college or elsewhere, and who intend to enter upon an active life as engineers or chemists, or in general, as men of science, applying their attainments to practical purposes...

Sida 383 - AT GREAT DILUTION. We have employed two methods for eliminating the influence of the impurities in the water on the conductivity of the acid solutions. Both of these involve the principle that the total effect of the acid and of the impurities in the water on the conductivity of each other is already produced when a relatively small quantity of acid has been added to the water, after which further additions of acid remain unaffected by the impurities.
Sida 370 - i and m' were each assigned the same value obtained by dividing our original value by 2, in all probability a very close approximation would be obtained in the region in question. This has not been done for two reasons. In the first place, it does not appear as if much would be learned by the procedure; and in the second place, m and m...
Sida 301 - A process of imperfect hybridization will occur between unlike strains of different heterothallic species in the same or even in different genera, or between a homothallic form and both strains of a heterothallic species. (11) By taking advantage of this character it has been possible to group together in two opposite scries the strains of all the heterothallic forms under cultivation.
