Trouble With q TeIescope

Trouble With q TeIescODe,
Continued observation with the tele-
scope of the Yerkes observatory re.
vealed the unpleasant existence of a
number Of curious streaks Of light run
ming horizontally, whose appearance
had certainly never been noticed be-
fore and gave rise to- redoubled I'M
,easiness. And yet everything seemed
right with the glass viewed externally
and the most searching investigation
could discover no cause.
At last in desperation the eyepiece
end was unscrewed. and Professor
Ellerman, tile .slimmest of the party,
was hidden to crawl. as he well could
do, along in the tube itself, and see if
he could discover yaught amiss. He
crept along well enough, so wide is the
tube, till he got beyond the center,
when the telescope began to turn over
with his weight. and he would have
slid down on the top of the glass had
not the other end been promptly seized
and held fast Then he continued his
Journey, and In another moment had
discovered the unsupported author OF
the mischief, a n overindustri6us spider
and her equally Woodworking progeny,
who had succeeded In filing up the
entire end OF the tube with a mass OF
lIcobwebs In the hope OF catching what
must have been wholly imaginary afes.
The webs and their spiders were care
fully removed and from That day to
this the behavior 81 the Yerkes 40 inch
glass has been all that heart could de

Perhaps you are an exception to the

ably on many occasions, just after look
knowledge to a friend who asked you
the time that you did not know what it
was. Yet you undoubtedly took your
kjmepiece out of your pocket, looked at
IT'S face and carefully replaced it in
your pocket, showing a logical Sc
quence Of thought and a we'll defined
object, which did not, however, result
in leaving a sufficiently distinct i'm
preston on your mind to satisfy your
friends curiosity as to the hour Of the
day. The motion was not an involun-
tary one, like that of the boy who can

Now, how may this seeming contra

reason is that not once in ten times
does q man look at his watch to see
what the actual time is, but rather to
learn whether he still has time to ac-
eomplish ome.purpose.H He may want
to keep an appointment at q certain
time Or to be IRE not to miss a boat
or train. When he takes out his watch,
therefore, he instinctiYely looks for
the hands in the position called for by
that particular moment, and when he
sees that they have not yet reached
that point he returns the watch. to its
resting place, with his mind relieved.
