In 1713, Newton, in a new edition of Principia, introduced the electric effluvium or aether as a "subtle, all-pervasive spirit, by whose 'force and action' material particles 'attract one another at near distances..., as well repelling as attracting the neighboring corpuscles' " (Newton, quoted in Heilbron 1979:239).
In 1713, Jakob Bernoulli, in Ars conjectandi, expounded the theorem that, in an increasing number of binary trials, an increasing proportion of the total probability is concentrated in the neighborhood of the original probability of success in a single trial.
Thus the connections which science establishes are "entirely arbitrary," and the "utmost effort of human reason is to reduce the principles, productive of natural phenomena, to a greater simplicity" (Hume 1738:30).
