The father was quite anxious for his

he was picking out what he thought

The Time of n Wink

A German scientist has given an
other proof of the painstaking nature
of his race in obtaining perfect accur-
acy and the most minute detail of all
things. This savant has measured the
time that is occupied by a wink. He
used a special Photographic apparatus
and fixed a piece of white paper on the
edge of the eyelid for mark. He
found that the lid descends quickly
and rests a little at the bottom move
ment. Then it rises more slowly than
it fell. The mean duration of the
downward movement was from OTIS
to .O91 of a second. The time from the
instant the eye rested till it closed
varied from Is to IT of a second. In
rising the lid took II of second. The
wink was completed in A of second.
