Points of Difference Between the Rejecting
and the Refracting Instruments.
A very pretty little experiment, which
illustrates the two methods of form
ing an optical image and by way Of cor
ollary illustrates the essential differ
ence between refracting and rejecting
telescopes, may be performed by any
one who possesses a reading glass and a
magnifying hand mirror In a room
that is not too brightly illuminated pin
a sheet of white paper ON the wall oppo-
site to a window that by preference
should face the north or away from the
position of the sun. Taking first the
reading glass, hold it between the win
dow and the wall parallel to the sheet
of paper and foot or more distant from
the latter BY moving it to and fro a
little you will be able to find distance
corresponding to the focal length of the
lens, at which picture of the window
is formed on the paper. This picture,
or image will be upside down because
the rays of light cross at the focus. By
moving the glass little closer to the
wall you will cause the picture Of the
window to become indistinot, while a
beautiful image Of the houses, trees or
other objects Of the outdoor world be-
yond will be formed upon the paper.
We thus learn that the distance of the
image from the lens varies with the dis
lance of the object whose image is form
ed In precisely similar manner an

Take next your magnifying or con-
cave mirror, and detaehing the sheet of
paper from the wall hold it nearly in
front of the mirror between the latter
and the window. When you have adj
justed the distance to the focal length
of the mirror, you Will see an image of
the window projected ON the paper. By
varying the distance as before you win
be able to produce at will pictures of
nearer or more remote objects. 1t is in
this way that images are formed at the
