Any additional electric fluid added must then build up on the surface and create an " electric atmosphere ".
2.
A material in its " natural state " contained exactly enough electric fluid to fill these pores and exhibited no " electric atmosphere ".
3.
In 1748, Kinnersley demonstrated that the electric fluid actually passed through water, and proved it by a trough ten feet long full of water.
4.
Conversely, removing electric fluid left the internal pores empty, and their natural affinity for the electric fluid created an electric atmosphere of the opposite polarity.

6.
In his early letters he seems to take for granted that the triboelectric charge which builds up on glass was due to an excess of electric fluid.
7.
Vril was " an electric fluid " which according to the book " cured diseases and established equilibrium of natural powers . " The Latin word for beef is'Bos .'
8.
He called the charge on amber " negative " meaning less of the one " electric fluid " and the charge on glass " positive " for more of the one substance.
9.
He also showed that this " electric fluid " was attracted to a sharply pointed iron rod, where the other end was put into the ground to create a path for safe conduction.
10.
Faraday sought the seat of the phenomena in real actions going on in the medium; they were satisfied that they had found it in a power of action at a distance on the electric fluids.
