Kinetics of Love. is the purpose of this treatise to briefly set forth a few of the scientific principles relating to one of nature's most powerful forces-love. The most marked pecularity is that the apparent quantity of love varies inversely as the amount of light or public vision to which the particles acted upon are exposed. The unit of love is that quantity of affection required to raise the tem- perature or ardor of the object transmitting the force through a definite degree of exuberance of spirits. Love is positive and varies directly as the square of the distance. The fundamental equation of love is L = p Re (l\Ia + Pal in which L represents quantity of love, p the path, never a straight line, ia the intensity of affection, d distance, and Re (iVla+ Pa) the external resistance of lIra and Pa. Let us take the two particles sand s' to illustrate the action of the law. From some cause or another the particle s becomes positively smitten .. When s is brought near s' we find that .1" becomes a permanent magnet, though it may be either positive or negative. • The lines of force out from s' are parallel, and tend to attract the particles s; e. let s situated on the same horizontal plane; the time most for this experiment is between 10 and 12 P. M., with as little light as possible falling on the particles. Now when left free to act we find that the potential energy of s is transformed into the energy of a accelerated motion towards the This continues until the passes the "safe sparking which Prof. Watts, of 'vV C., has found to be thirteen inches. When the particles come in actual contact there is a slight explosion, and we have the equation ks+si=kiss, in which k is the kinetic energy of particle r. and i the attraction of s~. -+ Ig2 +--
