TRANSMUTATION OF METALS. MODERN SCIENTIST’S BELIEFS. London, Feb. 28. Professor A. M. Low. lecturing at the Institute of Patentees, expressed the opinion that man, in the future, would not eat regular meals but would take tabloids and undergo ray treatment durinp sleep. Children would be brought up from birth to fit them for certain careers. They would he subjected to various rays, injected with serum and fed on tabloids in accordance with the profession or trade for which they were intended. Crime would be regarded as a disease, curable by surgical operations. While it was customary to scoff at the ancients who sought the Philosophers’ Stone and the Elixir of Life, modern scientists realised that both the transmutation of metals and the prolongation of life were within the bounds of possibility.
