discharges and only a very small por-
tion of these electrons reaches the
earth, and they are the cause among
other things of the Aurora Borealis.
These radiations are not continuous
but appear suddenly and disappear
again equally suddenly in connection
with the sun spots.
"The radio of the earth has an in-
calculable length of penetration; that
this is the case with the short waves,
is plainly proved by their being re-
