will be obtained. Before each piece is
placed definitely in position it is well to try
it at different noints to find the spot at
which the best effect is obtained. 1t is
possible afterward to actuate small figures
inthe theater thus constructed either with a
thread coming from above or from below.
The mobility of the figures will add much
to the variety of the aspect and TO the as
tonishment produced upon the spectator,
since their different motions give singular
animation to the crowd produced by their
front, back aud side reflections.
In order 10 render it possible to look into
the -theater an opening as large as 25-cent
piece is made in the center of one of the
sides by simply scraping off the external
sllyering. In the Interior tits well to con-

as in Fig. 4, the best results are secured.
A smooth string answers very good pur-
pose when strained in the manner shown in
Fig 5, i. e.. with the upper end of the string
grasped firmly by the hand while the lower
end IS held to the foor by pressure of the
foot.
This experiment is capable of,some modi-
fication; for example, pure rubber tube
may be substituted for the string, or, with
rod inserted in II, 1t may be substituted for
the rod, and light metal ring may be used
instead Of the rubber ring.
The explanation OK the behavior Of the
rubber ring will be readily understood by
reference to Fig, 6. from which 1t Will be
seen that the line of contact between the
