I suppose none Of us recognizes the
great part thai is played in life by eat
ing and drinking. The appetite is SC
imperious that we car stomach the
least interesting viands and pass off Il
dinner hour thankfully enough on
bread and wster-just as there are
men who must read something, if it
were only "BrHdshaw's Guide" But
there is romance about the matter, after
all. Probably the table has more devo-
tees than love, and am sure that food
is much more generally entertaining
than scenery. Do You give in, as Walt
| Whitman would say, that you are any
the less immortal for that? The true
| materialism is to be ashamed Of what
we are. To detect the favor of an
olive is no less a piece Of human per
| lection than to find beauty in the col
ors of the sunset.-Robert Louis Stew

UNIQUE ASTRONOMICAL CLOCK.
Remarkable Mechanism shows All

tho Movements OF the Earth.
All the movements of the earth are
| represented BY Il remarkable astronom-
Ical clock which yesterday was placed
on public view at the American Muse
nm Of Natural History. says the New
York Herald. 1t was designed by DR..
Herman {. Bumpus, the director OF
the institution. and Is the result of
months of patient experiment.
1t not only shows the daily rotation
of the earth upon its axis. but the mo-
ton about the sun, and also demon
~strates through all the year the changes
which cause the march of the
The earth is a globe of paper COM
position four feet in diameter, While
the sun is a s~tcreopticOn placed at Il
distance OF ten feet. The light from
the stereopticon shines upon the sphere
in such a manner rs to illuminate half
of 1t at a time. The shadow of a wire
which is back of the lens corresponds
to the meridian of New York.
The earth is caused to revolve by
means Of a shaft which derives its
power from Il small Howard steeple
clock. This shaft passes through a
wooden tunnel and communicates its
power to bevcl gears, which cause the
| sphere to be always changing its poise.
BY watching the meridian shadow
the observer can always tell the time
of day with mathematical accuracy.
No device Of its kind has ever been
exhibited in n museum for the inGtruc-
ton of the public, and this astronom-
ical clock rivals in it's accuracy and in
| the painstaking way in which it is cou-
structed the most delicate instruments
to be seen in wcll-equiDped observa-
tories. The cOntriNance was construct
ed by w. II. Beers, an expert mechan-
ician connected with the museum.
1t was the original intention to have
merely a globe showing the one motion
! Of the earth, but as the scheme devel-
opcd through experiments the present
elaborate clock was gradually per-
fected.
On the ground floor of the museum Is
another device showing the revolution
Of the earth about the u on n larger
scale. The orbit swings through the
entrance hall and over the information
bureau and INTO the hall of forestry,
while in the center of the foyer the sun
shines fer all.
