to seeing them repeating the same motions in the 

 interior of matter at our feet. Physics reveals to us 

 what we may truly call the spiritual side of matter; 

 when we push our inquiries far enough we reach the 

 point where gross substance becomes disembodied 

 energy, and we find ourselves in a world as intangi- 

 ble as dreamland. Just as we are quite unconscious 

 of the astronomic relations and movements of the 

 globe upon which we live, so our ordinary lives do 

 not reveal to us the play of forces, the attractions 

 and repulsions that are going on in the objects 

 about us. Whoever has had a glimpse of the Bru- 

 nonian movement that is taking place in matter all 

 about us, has got some inkling of the tumult that 

 these attracting and repelUng forces set up.
