The Arctic Manual, page 739.) As to gravity, no one knows what it is, because it has not been determined whether it is atmospheric pressure that causes the apple to fall, or whether, 150 miles below the surface of the earth, supposedly one half way through the earth's crust, there exists some powerful loadstone attraction that draws it. FROM THE ARCTIC MANUAL PAGE SEVEN THIRTY NINE AS TO GRAVITY NO ONE KNOWS WHAT IT IS BECAUSE IT HAS NOT YET BEEN DETERMINED WHETHER IT IS ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE THAT CAUSES THE APPLE TO FALL OR WHETHER ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILES BELOW THE SURFACE OF THE EARTH SUPPOSEDLY ONE HALF WAY THROUGH THE EARTH'S CRUST THERE EXISTS SOME POWERFUL LOADSTONE ATTRACTION THAT DRAWS IT
o say that it is my firm belief that the magnetic needle is influenced solely by electric currents which completely envelop the earth like a garment, and that these electric currents in an endless circuit pass out of the southern end of the earth's cylindrical opening, diffusing and spreading themselves over all the "outside" surface, and rushing madly on in their course toward the North Pole. And while these currents seemingly dash off into space at the earth's curve or edge, yet they drop again to the "inside" surface and continue their way southward along the inside of the earth's crust, toward the opening of the so-called South Pole.(24) (24 "Mr. Lemstrom concluded that an electric discharge which could only be seen by means of the spectroscope was taking place on the surface of the ground all around him, and that from a distance it would appear as a faint display of Aurora, the phenomena of pale and flaming light which is some times seen on the top of the Spitzbergen Mountains."-- HAT IT IS BY FIRM BELIEF THAT THE MAGNETIC NEEDLE IS INFLUENCED SOLELY BY ELECTRIC CURRENTS WHICH COMPLETELY ENVELOP THE EARTH LIKE A GARMENT AND THAT THESE ELECTRIC CURRENTS IN AN ENDLESS CIRCUIT PASS OUT OF THE SOUTHERN END OF THE EARTH'S CYLINDRICAL OPENING DIFFUSING AND SPREADING THEMSELVES OVER ALL THE OUTSIDE SURFACE AND RUSHING MADLY ON IN THEIR COURSE TOWARD THE NORTH POLE AND WHILE THESE CURRENTS SEEMINGLY DASH OFF INTO SPACE AT THE EARTH'S CURVE OR EDGE YET THEY DROP AGAIN TO THE INSIDE SURFACE AND CONTINUE THEIR WAY SOUTHWARD ALONG THE INSIDE OF THE EARTH'S CRUST TOWARD THE OPENING OF THE SO CALLED SOUTH POLE NOTE TWENTY FOUR QUOTE MISTER LEMSTROM CONCLUDED THAT AN ELECTRIC DISCHARGE WHICH COULD ONLY BE SEEN BY MEANS OF THE SPECTROSCOPE WAS TAKING PLACE ON THE SURFACE OF THE GROUND ALL AROUND HIM AND THAT FROM A DISTANCE IT WOULD APPEAR AS A FAINT DISPLAY OF AURORA THE PHENOMENON OF PALE AND FLAMING LIGHT WHICH IS SOMETIMES SEEN ON THE TOP OF THE SPITZBERGEN MOUNTAINS UNCORT
