DESPITE the extraordinary letter of Mr. C. S. Jackson, which appears in your issue of December 31, 1896, I must say that if there is a term which teachers of rational mechanics should retain and emphasise, it is the term mass. Mass denotes the quantity of matter, or the amount of stuff, in a given body. It is a definite and invariable quantity, whether you have the body at latitude 0° or at latitude 90° whether you conceive it transferred to the surface of Jupiter, or to the outermost ring of Saturn.
