Footnotes   [1]Mono-brom-benzene is better than chloroform for this experiment, but is more costly. It may be coloured with indigo. Chloroform may be coloured with iodine.
    [2]Mr. C. T. R. Wilson has recently devised an apparatus for making visible the tracks of ionizing rays, by the condensation of water vapour round the freshly liberated ions.
    [3]These movements were first recorded by Romieu in 1748 and were ascribed by him to electricity.
    [4]The breaking-up of films on the surface of water was first noticed by Tomlinson about 50 years ago. He used essential oils, and called the patterns “cohesion figures.”
    [5]An interesting discussion on cellular structures of this type may be found in Nature, April 16 to June 11, 1914.
  
 
Transcription note
The following minor typographical flaws have been corrected:
Fig. 7: missing period at the end of the caption
“feeler,”’ unnecessary additional closing quote
Index: Drops of liquid, shapes of, 10, 29, 30, 31 missing commas
Index: Mono-brom-benzene added hyphen to conform with reference in text
Footnotes have been renumbered progressively throughout the book.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state visit /fundraising/donate
While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who approach us with offers to donate.
International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
Each eBook is in a subdirectory of the same number as the eBook's eBook number, often in several formats including plain vanilla ASCII, compressed (zipped), HTML and others.
Corrected editions of our eBooks replace the old file and take over the old filename and etext number. The replaced older file is renamed. Versions based on separate sources are treated as new eBooks receiving new filenames and etext numbers.
