MS NONEYS WoRTR OF MOON

MS UONEY'S WORTR OF MOON.
From the Ohio tRte journal.
A well known scientist was walk
ing along London street when he
came across an itinerant astronomer
who was inviting the passers-by to
gaze through his telescope at the
moo at a halfpenny a time. The
scientist in London was speculative
enough to venture a halfpenny, and
on a plying his eye to the ipstru-
ment was astonished to see a beau.
ful picture Of q full moon, although
at the time the moon was only in hei
second quarter. Puzzled at the cir.
cumstance he examined the instru.
ment and found that it was not
telescope at all, but simply a tube
with a hole where the eyepiecs
should be and a transparent photo
graph Of a full moon, with a lighl
behind 1t at the other end.
On the scientist asking the exhib,
itor how no could so cheat the public
the man simply replied: "It's al
rght, sir. People like a lot for thei
money nowadays. 1 used to have
proper Scope once, but l turned
up for this after an Irishman pitches
