1t was nearly 200 years ago that
Edmund HALEY constructed what is

bell, although the apparatus must
have been much like that which was
used in the presence of Charles V.
The principle of the diving bel is
simple. An inverted jar sunk in the
water retains air at its top, and II
there is enough air men may live and
breathe and work there. and keep dry

"stuI sweeter sings MY Darling"

"StIll sweeter Sings MY Darling"
The bell bird fills Australian shades
With songs like bubbling fountains;
The redstart thrills the river glades
Beneath Virginian mountains.
The oriole, that soul afire.
Paurs forth a storm of singing
To the rapt mate of his desire,
In soft gray hammock swinging.
BY night, by day. on topmost spray
Or where the covert bushes,
Plays Natures weirdest orchestra
The mock bird, king of thrushes.
But all the words of all the birds
Ay, cen the songs, magician
All sweetest notes from singing threats
Fade as at dawn vision.
When, be 1t catch or lullaby,
Or songs of battle ringing,
Love lays or hymns OF liberty,
l hear my darling singing.
For song each>bird hath times preferred
When winter winds are gnarling
Each tender tree the chickadee
Outsings the housed starting.
But whether blows the summers rose.
Or winters winds be snarling.
BE spring abloom. or fall in gloom
Still sweeter sings my darling.

Good Reason.

Representative AdGmson, of Geor'

his county court a fellow was before
him charged with having stolen a pair
of pantaloons-they call them "britch
es" in Georgia. There were several
witnesses, but the evidence was rather
meagre, and the accused was acquit
ted. He was told that he could go
but he remained in his seat. His
lawyer, to whose successful defense
he owed his liberty, limited to hin
that he was free to depart, but he
didn't bulge.
"I don't want TO CO." said the fell
low.
"And why not?" asked the lawyer

"Why?"

erane S uorh In Astrononox.

1t was the great eclipse of Aug. 21,
1861, that turned Tycho Brahe into an
astronomer. He was in his 18th year
at the time, Danish boy of noble or
igin, and had been destined first for
the army and then for the law. But
the accuracy with which the eclipse
was predicted impressed him with the
belief that astronomy was divine
thing, and thenceforward he devoted
his life to it. The debt of astronomy
to Tycho Brahe, not only for his own
work, but as the man who shaped
the genius of Kepler. can scarcely be
overestimated.
