Abstract
I WAS extremely interested to read, in NATUBE for Oct. 24, Prof. G. W. Stewart's letter, in which he states that his X-ray diffraction experiments strongly support my theory of viscosity, and I look forward with eagerness to reading the full account of his results. We are both in agreement that the liquid state is more akin to the crystalline than to the gaseous state, and it is in this connexion that I wish to direct attention to another result of my theory which bears on this point, more especially as fuller publication has, by various mischances, been delayed.
