43753 | They begin with"Avez vous le pain?" |
43753 | Thomas, believest thou this?" |
43753 | What could we have done, what can we now do more? |
43753 | What means this great commotion? |
43753 | What was the anxiety of those twenty- six hours? |
43753 | When shall the Atlantic cable be open for public business?'' |
43753 | Who knows that it will not reject any other convention? |
43753 | Will you please thank him for me? |
43753 | Will you think that I belie the expression I have used if I tell you candidly the effect this book has produced upon my mind? |
43753 | and the last sentence is,"Votre ami a- t- il le miroir que vous avez ou celui que j''ai? |
43753 | and"What is the price of gold in New York?" |
30688 | 29? |
30688 | 44? |
30688 | And why should it? |
30688 | But if the spring balance said the thing weighed five pounds how would you know if it was right? |
30688 | But what do we mean in words of electrons and atoms? |
30688 | But what would happen if we should decrease the capacity and increase the inductance? |
30688 | By the way, do you know what a"circuit"is? |
30688 | Can you tell me what is going to happen to the stream of electrons in the plate circuit? |
30688 | Did you ever sing or howl down a rain barrel or into a long pipe or hallway and hear the sound? |
30688 | Do they ever begin again? |
30688 | Do they let the sulphate ions keep giving that plate more electrons? |
30688 | Do you remember the gang of boys that fellow had to drive off his property? |
30688 | Do you remember what was happening in the tube? |
30688 | Do you see what this means? |
30688 | Do you want a picture of it? |
30688 | For 1 ohm it would take 1 volt to give a current of 1 ampere, would n''t it? |
30688 | How about the zinc plate? |
30688 | How do they differ? |
30688 | How else do they differ? |
30688 | How is it done? |
30688 | How long does it go on? |
30688 | How many? |
30688 | How would you know that the weights you used to calibrate your scale were really what you thought them to be? |
30688 | If a coil of resistance three ohms is carrying two amperes what is the voltage across the terminals of the coil? |
30688 | If an e. m. f. of 8 volts is sending current through a resistance of 2 ohms, how much current is flowing? |
30688 | If you wanted to find the weight of something you would take a scale and weigh it, would n''t you? |
30688 | In the meantime what has happened? |
30688 | Is it ever going to stop? |
30688 | It''s an alternating current, is n''t it? |
30688 | Notice that I told the number of ohms and the number of volts, what are you going to tell? |
30688 | Now what are the hydrogen ions to do? |
30688 | Now what do we have? |
30688 | Now what happens inside the audion? |
30688 | Now what happens to the electrons, the rude boys who are dodging their way along the sidewalk? |
30688 | Now what''s going to happen? |
30688 | Now, how far will the energy which is sent out from the antenna travel during the time it takes for one oscillation of the current in the antenna? |
30688 | Of course you might take what ever it was down town and weigh it on some other scales but how would you know those scales gave correct weight? |
30688 | On the other hand why use the tube under the first conditions where we need a large plate battery? |
30688 | That is all right, you think, but what are we to do when the batteries are not just equal in e. m. f.? |
30688 | The question always is: How large in percent is the difference between the two frequencies? |
30688 | What about the current which flows in coil_ cd_? |
30688 | What are the hydrogen ions going to do? |

30688 | What will happen if the e. m. f. which is active on the grid of the detector is made stronger or weaker? |
30688 | What will happen? |
30688 | What will the kind of atom depend upon? |
30688 | What would be the net effect? |
30688 | What would happen if we should then disconnect the battery? |
30688 | What would he mean? |
30688 | What''s going to happen? |
30688 | Where are they to go? |
30688 | Where do these electrons come from? |
30688 | Where do these electrons come from? |
30688 | Where do they go? |
30688 | Where does it get its ability to work-- that is, where does the"energy"come from which runs the set? |
30688 | Why does it get hot? |
30688 | Why should n''t the electrons in this waiting- room go home to that of plate 1? |
30688 | Why? |
30688 | You would be making the grid_ alternately_ positive and negative, would n''t you? |
30688 | [ Illustration: Fig 21] One member of the Council jumped up and said"But what if the grid is made negative?" |

820 | A day or two later Mr. Edison inquired:''How far is it from here to Lawrence; it is a long walk, is n''t it?'' 820 Are you sure?" |
820 | Can you make this machine work? |
820 | Does Mr. Edison, or any one for him, mean to say that r/ n enables him to obtain nE, and that C IS NOT= E/( r/ n+ R)? 820 How long did you knead it?" |
820 | How near does she fit, Mike? |
820 | One hot Saturday night, after Mr. Edison had looked over the evening papers, he said to me:''Do you want to play a game of billiards?'' 820 What kind of copy does he make?" |
820 | What was to be done? 820 ''Can you go to- morrow?'' 820 ''Did he know anything about running a station like this?'' 820 ''How can I tell? 820 ''Now, Mr. Bergmann,''said Epstein,''how much for the lot?'' 820 ''That''s strange, Mr. Bergmann; wo n''t you look?'' 820 ''Well,''I said,''is n''t it banking to help a man in this way?'' 820 ''Where is the steamer that goes across the Channel?'' 820 4 previous to 1872, why was it not also patented? 820 Anger with him, however, is a good deal like the story attributed to Napoleon:Sire, how is it that your judgment is not affected by your great rage?" |
820 | At 8 o''clock he appeared, walked around, went into the battery- room, and then came to me, saying:''Edison, who did this?'' |
820 | But suppose the batteries were so connected that the current from each set flowed in an opposite direction? |
820 | But what of his position in the age in which he lives? |
820 | Can the Edison company explain this? |
820 | Chimmy, when did youse blow in?" |
820 | Chinnock said:''Does he KNOW anything about running a station like this? |
820 | Did you ever realize that practically all industrial chemistry is colloidal in its nature? |
820 | Edison?'' |
820 | He came in two or three months after, and said:''How did that cigar business work?'' |
820 | He looked me over and said:''What did he promise you?'' |
820 | He said:''Are you the manager of this electric- light plant?'' |
820 | He said:''What have you here?'' |
820 | His very first question was:''Well, Colonel, how did you come out on that experiment?'' |
820 | How much do you think you should receive?'' |
820 | How would you like that job?'' |
820 | I met Chinnock several weeks after, and said:''How is the whiskey man getting along?'' |
820 | I said to Chinnock:''How is it now?'' |
820 | I said to Pasteur,''Will he live?'' |
820 | I said to Sadler:''What is that?'' |
820 | I said to the man:''Will that boat live in that sea?'' |
820 | I said:''What for?'' |
820 | I said:''What is it?'' |
820 | In explaining this he added:"Suppose you want to take the falls down at Richmond, and want to put up a water- power? |
820 | Mr. Edison sent the laconic reply:''Why does n''t he try it and see?'' |
820 | Mr. Edison then asked:''If I had n''t sold any of mine, what would it be worth to- day?'' |
820 | Mr. Edison turned to him quickly, and said:"Do you mean to say that these drawings represent the only way to do this work?" |
820 | One day Epstein appeared and said:''Good- morning, Mr. Bergmann, have you any chips to- day?'' |
820 | Pride? |
820 | Suppose anything had happened to Edison? |
820 | The question before us is, To what extent has Edison added to the wealth of the world by his inventions and his energy and perseverance? |
820 | Then he asked:''What have you got, boy?'' |
820 | Then he said:''How would$ 40,000 strike you?'' |
820 | Then, how about the subdivision of the electric light?" |
820 | They said:''Sell out what?'' |
820 | This is the conversation that ensued, led by Mr. Edison''s question:"What do you want?" |
820 | To which he replied:"What''s the use? |
820 | What other factors are there to be taken into consideration to explain this phenomenon? |
820 | When I came opposite the two young men, one of them said:''Boy, what have you got?'' |
820 | Where does he rank in the mountain range of great Americans? |
820 | Who is he?''" |
820 | Why did he not show this lamp to McMahon when he called in the interest of the American Company and talked over the electrical matters? |
820 | Why did not his son take this lamp to Mr. Bull''s office in 1892, when he took the old fiddle- bow lamps, 1, 2, and 3? |
820 | Why does he say such things as these? |
820 | Why not( say) make the internal part 1 and the external 9, thus saving nine- tenths and losing only one- tenth? |
820 | Why? |
820 | Will you let my bookkeeper look at your books?'' |
820 | Yet what did he do? |
820 | of the applied mechanical energy, ingenuously remarking:"Why is it that when we have produced the electricity, half of it must slip away? |
