Excerpt from The Gases in Rocks The analyses are numbered in table 8 in the order in which they were made, and therefore furnish a chronological account of these investiga tions. At the commencement of these studies, it being deemed advisable to make a rapid survey of the field and establish the range of the phenome non, ih order to direct later experiments more intelligently, less attention was given to securing the most trustworthy method of extracting the gas. Twenty-two analyses were made during the preliminary trial stage, before the apparatus was overhauled and sealed glass connections substituted for rubber tubing. AS it was difficult to prevent a slight leakage of air into the tubes of the original apparatus, the first 22 analyses are characterized by a higher percentage of nitrogen than those made afterwards under more favorable conditions. Hydrogen sulphide was not determined in the first 17 analyses. Table 8 gives the percentage of each gas in the total volume of gas; and the volume of each gas (at 0 and 760 mm. Pressure) per unit-volume of rock. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Rocks, Minerals and Stocks Owing to differences in speed between the inner and outer portions of the great spheroid of whirling gas, the outer portion separated into rings, which broke into pieces and the pieces wound themselves up into smaller spheroids. Other rings separated from these and also from the central mass and broke up into other pieces, and so on, until we find our Solar System is a system of moons circulating around planets which in turn circulate around a great central mass or Sun. Old Saturn still has a couple of rings and a lot of moons racing around him, showing that at one time the Old fellow was a young fellow and delighted in wearing rings. Th'ere is no doubt but that our Earth and the other planets and moons in our cluster were all at one time or another as hot as the Sun, but, being smaller than the Sun, they have parted with their heat more rapidly. This heat was of course latent in the original atoms, and was roused into activity during the chemical changes and physical condensation through which the gaseous materials have passed while turning into solid rock, etc., and this heat has been radiating into space all the time or being con verted into other forms of energy, or locked up in latent form, so that now we have very little of our own heat left, and are dependent on the Sun for our supplies.
