The mean distance between the centres of conseq. molecules (called hereafter M.D) } < 1/100,000,000 & > 1/2,000,000,000 of a centimètre

a Centimètre = .393708 of an inch
      = 393.708 thousths. of an inch
   or = 3937.08 10 thousth. of an inch

∴ MD < 393.708/100,000,000 > 393.708/2,000,000,000 of 1/1000th of an inch
or M.D < 3937.08/100,000,000 > 3937.08/2,000,000,000 of 1/10,000th of an inch

Call the vol. of cube whose corners are the centres of 4 molecules X for shortness
∴ X < (393.708) 3 / (100000000) 3 cubic 1/100th of inch
& > (393.708) (196.85403 / (1000000000) 3 cub. 1/1000th of inch
∴ cubic 1/1000th of inch > (100000000/393.708) 3 X
   < (1000000000) 3 / (196.854) 3 X

their original position in the anther-cells. They then quickly depress themselves till they lie parallel to the bristle; and if the bristle, slightly diverging; and when the bristle, being held in the same relative position, is inserted into the nectary of another flower, the two ends of the pollinia accurately strike the two stigmatic surfaces lying close on each side of the mouth of the nectary. I am, however, not quite sure that I understand the by what the whole mechanism causing the pollinia to divergence for I find that moths often remove one pollinium alone; and this fact leads me to suspect that they insert their probosces obliquely into the nectary.)

Similarly
Cubic 1/10,000th of inch > (100000000/3937.08)3 X
   < (1000000000/1968.54)3 X

Now log 393.708 = 2.5951742 [x] 3 [=] 7.7866226
   log 100,000,000 = 8.0000000 [x] 3 [=] 24.0000000 [-] 7.7855226 [=] 16.2144774
   log 1638617 =

∴Cubic 1/1000th inch > 16,386,170,000,000,000 X
      or 16,386 million million X

Again log 196.854 = 2.2941442 [x] 3 [=] 6.8824326
& log 1,000,000,000 = 9.0000000 [x] e [=] 27.0000000 [-] 6.8824326 [=] 20.1175674
