Excerpt from Juvenile Philosophy: Or, Philosophy in Familiar Conversations; Designed to Teach Young Children to Think Mother. - It was not necessary for her to put the plate near the water; the water was formed on the plate; and now, if you will listen to me, I will answer both of your questions at once; namely, where the rain comes from, and where the water on the plate came from, or rather how it was formed. The steam that came from the tea-kettle was made of water. The heat of the fire under the kettle changed the water in the kettle to steam, and when the steam became cold, the steam was changed back again to water. When the steam rose against the cold plate, it became cold, and was changed into water. Now, you know that there are a great many tea kettles boiling every morning and evening; and the steam from them goes up the chimneys of the houses, and rises up in the air, and there becomes cold and changes into water; and the water, when it falls down again, makes rain.
