past few months anu on next Tuesday

tiveH will express the will Of the ma
tion by it's vote upon the quea tion

by sophistTy and evasion. It has been

The Water Clock.

The earliest application of the clepsy-
dra principle to produce motion was by
Tsiang Hung, A. D. 1876, who made an
."orrery" representing the apparent mo-
tion of the heavenly bodies around the
earth, which was kept going by drop
ping water.
In the sixth century Of the Christian
era an instrument was in use in China
which indicated the course of time by
the weight of water as it gradually
came from the beak of a bird and was
received in a vessel on balance, every
pound representing a one-hundredth
part Of the day of twenty four hours.
About this time mercury began to be
employed in cIepsydras instead Of wa
ter.
