There, while he works in the eld-for they are peasant Farmers, working lands held by hereditary proprietors, almost as might the serfs of Russia-she tends the dwelling.

The swinging of pendulums will be the gauge From the force exerted by the pyramid in pulling the swinging pen dulum from its natara. course the weight Of the pyramid can be es,i- mated. and that 0f the earth-the exact sine Of which Is known. can then be calculated easily.
