To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Of chromium two samples were used, one specimen prepared by Gold- schmidt's method — a sample of the very earliest product of this method shortly after its invention — the other, a much purer sample, furnished by the Roessler & Hasslacher Company and stated by them to contain 99 per cent of chromium. Between these two samples there was a very great difiference in compressibility, the first sample being far less compressible. We are inclined to think that this first sample contained a silicide o...f chromium or some other less compressible compound, and therefore accept the later result with chromium of known purity as the more accurate. Nickel was placed in the jacket in the form of the small cubes in which the pure material may be procured in commerce. These cubes are per- meated in every direction with fine pores or channels, and upon applying pressure to the mercury in which they are immersed, this mercury is driven into the innermost recesses of the lumps, giving false values for the compressibilities.
