Scientific Jottings From a French Chemist and Other Notes
A French chemist proves electrical currents alter chemical processes. A fossilized asbestos deposit near Lompas California is about ten feet thick and a quarter mile long. Water hardness relates to mineral content thresholds. Tips for pencil drawings use atomized fixative for permanence. Hydrophobia may originate from a protozoan in rabies patients. Roentgen absorption varies with atomic weight per W J Humphreys. Paris seeks permission to build a colossal terrestrial globe for a future exposition. Atlantic Ocean appears to circulate as a giant moving body. Next solar eclipse will be filmed at five to six frames per second to study phenomena without bias. A German chemist yields rust proof paint by using cerium oxide mixes with linseed oil and boric acid plus peroxides, colorable with graphite or lamp black.
