Curious incident In the Career of
Novelist Crockett.

S. r. Crockett, the novelist. told
rather remarkable story of an incident
that befel him in his early writing
days, before fame and fortune had
come to him and while he struggled
on for a living At that time he was
obliged to write for very small sums
indeed and among the publications to
which he contributed columns and half
columns was the st. James Gazette.
a London penny evening newspaper,
One morning the pOstman brought TO
Mr.. Crockett a letter from the editor
Of the St James Gazette containing
a small check as payment for con-
tlibuti0n. Mr. Crockett knew that
nothing was due to him. that he had
been paid for all his articles. andre
markable mamie did the check up in
an explanatory note and returned it to
the editor
The next s.y back came the check
from the editor - remarkable man -
with note saying it was due. The
st. James Gazette had published an
article from the pen of Mir Crockett
which had not been paid fer; hence
the check Again Mr.. Crockett-re
mGrkau!e man - returned the check.
and still the remarkable editor refor-
wardcd it. this time with the article
James Gazette.
Now comes the curious feature of
the incident When Mr.. Crockett clap
ped eyes on the article. he was aston
ished 10 find it enc of his dreams

Sir John lIe~schel after dinner in
1896 asked his friend. Charles Bah
bage, how he would show both sides of
a shilling at once. Babbace replied by
taking Il shilling from his pocket and
holding it TO 4 mirror. This did not
satisfy Sir John. who set the shilling
spinning upon the dinner table at the
same time pointing out that if the eye
is placed on a level with the rotating
coin both sides can he seen at once.
Babbage was so struck by the expert
ment that the next day be described
it to a friend. Or. Fitson. who immcdi-
ately made n working model. On one
side OF q disk was drawn bird, OH the
other side an empty birdcage. When
the card was revolved on silk thread
the bird appeared 20 be in the cage.
This model showed the persistence Of
vision upon which all moving pictures
depend for their effect The eye re
