A LESSON IN OPTICS.
4 Convex or a Concave Lens with q Drop
of Water

4 Convex or a Concave Lens with a Drop
of Water.
Take a goblet of which the bottom
is cut sideways /. e., in side sections,
grasp the foot of the glass and incline
the edge toward you after having
emptied into the glass little water,
so that the water resembles q great
drop in the interior OF the part not cut.
Look at the table cloth through this
drop OF water. You will be surprised
to see how easy it has become to count
the threads, for each one of them APP
pears much larger than it Is in reality.
The fact is that the drop of water, like
the sample shown in the figure has
taken exactly the form of by-convex
lens.
II this water does not take on its
upper side the form of a swelling con-
vex surface but its upper surface re-
mains horizontal, you will have a
plain convex lens
These two kinds of lens are diverg-
emit Both have the property of en-
larging objects Bi-convex lens used

scopes, and the modest drop OF water
permits Of examining in detail the diff
ferent parts Of plant or an insect that
can be seen with difficulty with the
naked eye
Look now at the under part OF the
glass through one OF the sides that are
cut. At this point the glass is con-
clave at the interior and concave at
the exterior; we have then a bi-con-
clave lens like that in the figure, or a
plain concavc. il the cut were
straight, instead OF being round.
Now, far from being enlarged, the
thread OF the cloth, the insect or the
flower appears much smaller than
they are in reality, which shows that a
plain or bi-concave lens has the prop
erty of reducing the apparent dimen-
sions Of objects.
The glasses in spectacles for far
sighted people are bi-concave, with
thick edges, while those for near
sighted persons are bi-couvex, with
thin edges. Cincinnati Enquirer.

Cremation, read at the congress OF
