To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These operate so that one oxidizable body may involve another in the same decomposition which it undergoes itself. But here we begin to stray away from the subject of this paper, which is the actinic study of the atmosphere. I am content, therefore, to draw from the great sum total of the results I have obtained the following conclusions: The nature and the proportion of the oxidizable elements which living nature scat- ters through the air, betray themselves in the solar combustion of oxalic a...cid, which is the more feeble on the surface of the solution the more the radiations have met with unstable elements to oxidize duiing their passage. The organic substances of the atmosphei'e are therefore a protection against too intense an action of the chemi- cal rays at the surface of the soil, and the effect which they produce is not only measurable, but sometimes very great. In other words, we do not know what the chemical power of solar light may be at its entrance into the atmosphere, but on a level with the soil it is so impoverished that a thin layer of turpentine vapor, of sulphate of quinine, or of any oxidizable substance, suffices to destroy it almost completely.
