Abstract
THREE or four years ago an experiment was arranged by Mr. D. Macfarlane and myself for the purpose of showing the flow of a viscous mass and for illustrating glacier motion. The experiment then commenced gave rise to others of a similar nature. These experiments have proved so interesting that I venture to describe some of them to the readers of NATURE.
