Página 6 - Our inch, for instance, has been defined in an old statute (now repealed) as the length of three grains of barley, taken from the middle of the ear, and placed end to end. And in a somewhat similar manner have been derived from those cereals the smaller sub-divisions of the Hebrews and Hindoos ; while the larger have, in these, as in other nations, originated in parts of the human person. (6.) It is very evident, however, that types of this kind...

The " Geyser " was placed over the foot end of the bath. It consisted of a metal heater of about two gallons capacity, into which water was led through a pipe connected with the supply to the bath. From this receptacle a brass pipe opened over the bath.
Página 216 - So overpowering was the odour of gas that the caretaker was partially overcome, and with much difficulty dragged the body out into the lobby, where he applied artificial respiration, sending meanwhile for medical assistance. Dr. Herbert Byrne, the medical officer of the district, speedily arrived, and could only pronounce life extinct.

Página 260 - It now becomes possible that the longues of ice spread into pre-existing inlets, banking out the sea, and again admitting it in warmer times. Messrs. Wright and Muff even conclude, from British as well as Irish indications, that " a considerable portion of the coastline of Southern Britain is of pre-glacial age. The approximation over so wide an area of the sea-level in pre-glacial times to that of the present day renders it very probable that Ireland was already insulated before the Glacial Period.

Página 213 - How long it will be before the maximum percentage is reached. It is assumed that the entering air is normal in composition, and that it at once and completely mingles with the air already in the room. I have submitted this problem to a competent mathematical authority, who reports as follows : — The C02 introduced attains its maximum at the end of the first 2 hours, when it is 4-9 cubic feet. It then decreases during the 18 hours to practically 2'7 cubic feet.
Página 213 - It then decreases during the 18 hours to practically 2'7 cubic feet. The change is more rapid at the beginning and very gradual towards the end. It is 3-51 cubic feet at the end of 2-25 hours, and 3 cubic feet at the end of 4'5 hours, so from this it changes very little. As regards the coal-gas, the percentage goes on increasing all the time, tending towards the theoretical maximum which would be 11-25 cubic feet, containing 1-8 cubic feet of CO.
