...human body. He was particularly interested in the progress of carbohydrates (starches and sugars). These enter the mouth, change into a variety of transient substances, nourish every cell in the body, leave the body with the breath as simple carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) gas and water (H 2 O) vapor...
...There by the wall a maiden poet stands, Her gestures undulant on languid hands; Each finger nail a crimson petal, seen Through a pale garnishing of nicotine. Her draperies, like downward vapor, tremble, As one by one her courtiers assemble...
...Sleeping four the 1,250-lb. two-wheeler has stove, heater, icebox and running water. Top price was $1,580 for the generator-equipped Martin EckO with electric refrigeration, ice cubes, shower, hot and cold running water. Refinements in some 1937 trailers include: chromium-plated bath tubs; porcelain vapor stoves; writing desks; radios; roomy wardrobes; fireplaces.

...Mars, Despite the spreading of the frosty polar caps of Mars in winter and the darkening of the "canals" in summer (possible evidence of vegetation), astronomers have long been convinced that there is very little water on the "red planet." The amount of water vapor in the Martian atmosphere appears to be less than 5% of that on earth. It is difficult to measure the planet's water by spectrographic means because of spectrum lines caused by vapor in the Earth's air. Last spring Astronomers Walter Sydney Adams and Theodore Dunham Jr. of Mt. Wilson Observatory...
...since 1910; it consists of a chamber containing a mixture of liquid and gas and several lead plates, through which the cosmic radiations pass--the gas is cooled, and produces a fog track along the path of ions formed by the charged corpuscles. This track of condensed vapor can be easily seen with the naked eye and also photographed, showing up as a bright streak on the film. Thus electrons, protons and the new particles, although far too infinitesimal to be directly seen by any optical instrument known, are tricked into disclosing their presence to the human observer...
