Text: "The continuous flow of the magnet is merely a diversion of that portion of the terrestrial envelope that electricians have never controlled. This third current, of this triune stream, has never been subdivided and only slightly diverted towards the negative pole of the magnet, flowing unbrokenly back to associate sympathetically with the full triune combination of the earth's neutral force. Thus the problem is solved of the continuous and never ending force of the magnet, in carrying its load without any diminution of its energy. There is no influence, as yet known, that can break up its line of sympathetic flow as associated with the triune combination. Polarization and depolarization, in its action, is nodal negative interference, intermittently excited, inducing differential disturbance of polar sympathetic equilibrium. "The attractive power, evolved by a magnet in sustaining its load, is no evidence that it is molecularly attractive; for, under the influence of the dominant current of the electric stream, the range of its molecular mass is not extended; but by the action induced in atomic vibration, the latent, or undisturbed power, that is locked up in its atomic embrace, is put into sympathetic action, and evolves the force that is recognized as magnetic. When its exciter is removed, it returns to atomic recesses to remain perfectly latent, until again brought into action by its proper exciter. "When a steel unmagnetized bar is associated with a magnetized one, the latent force in the unmagnetized one is sympathetically brought into action, associating itself to the magnetic one,without depreciating the power of it one iota. Dissociation andassociation between the two bars can go on indefinitely with thesame result. John Keely in (1) Chapter 19
