CURIOSO RElOJ.

Los habitantes de cierto pueblecito de
America del Sur disponen de un reloj muy
curioso, compueato exclusivamente de Ia
esfera, las manecillas y una especie de
palanca que esta en- communication con un
geiser, que arroja cada treinta y ocho Sc
gundos una columna de aqua caliente.
Cada vez que este ocurre la palanca hace
recorrer 4 las agujas, sobre Ia eafera, un
espacio equivalence 4 treinta y ocho Sc
gundos.
Ell reloj es muy SECURE, porque el geiser
hace su trabajo sin variar mas de una
d6cima de segundo en- los intervalos.

ed h new Henly and deserves the til
tie. In any event, Mr.. Stranr is to
day as Mr.. Henly was yesterday. the
writer of books dearest to the heart of
a boy. The India of a hundred and
fifty years ago is a subject full of ro-
mantle possibilities, and it has been
chosen by Mr. Strang as the scene of
his latest and best story. Following
his usual plan, the author has selected
one or two momentous historical
events as the background Of a
stirring story of adventure. Hav-
ing lived for several years On
the aclual SPOT where some OF
the most striking incidents hap
pened. he is able to impart an atmos-
phere and local color to his narrative
with success. The story is briefly as
follows:
