Text: The interposition of hydrogen gas between soap films, of the differential diameters of thirds, illuminated by a solar ray in whose focus a quiescent prism is set posteriorly - the prism to be adjusted at the proper distance and angle to throw the seven colors through the film enclosing the hydrogen in a way that will give the bow and arch of three feet - will register deep down, inaudible tones or sounds, and indicate their different conditions by the dissolving and re-dissolving of certain of the colors of such arch. To conduct such experiments properly necessitates, first, a location as nearly isolated from all extraneous audible sounds as is possible to get, and second, a pedestal of the lowest vibrating material, the base of it set deep in the earth, to arrange the instruments upon, and third, a room of the highest resonating qualities to enclose them. Under such conditions the inaudible sounds emanating from the operator, would have to be neutralized by a negative device to get at the proper conditions while under his manipulation. Thus the hidden inaudible world of sounds could be shown up, as the microscope shows up to the eye the hidden invisible forms of nature. The conditions of the mechanical requirements necessary to conduct successfully the line of research I am now pursuing, will never be properly appreciated until the beauty of this system is shown up under perfect control for commercial use. I have spoken elsewhere of the almost infinite difficulties of getting into position, to hold hydrogen gas in suspension between soap film a proper period of time, to conduct these experiments. The setting of the other parts of the apparatus is quite easy in comparison. All wave propagations, electromagnetic or otherwise by being thus refracted can be measured in regard to the time of their propagation all of which are introductorily subservient to the luminiferous ether. The theory put forward by "men of science" in regard to electromagnetic forces shows that they are misled by the imperfection of their instruments. They are trying to measure the infinite by the finite, necessitating terms of avoidance, to the instantaneous propagation of nature's sympathetic evolutions, of the same nature as the one advanced in the assertion that a force does not exist in the interstitial embrace of all matter.
