Action Of the Magnetic Needle

Action Of the Magnetic Needle.
The magnetic needle comes to rest pointing
north and south because the earth acts as If it
were a great magnet. A compass needle would
come to rest pointing lengthwise of bar magnet
placed under the compass needle, just as it does
under the influence of the earth. For this reason
we think of the earth as great magnet. The north
pole and the north star have no influence over the

The city of Denver, from money

There is another matter to which
we have referred from time to time
that also needs attention. That is the

Rare is the rose-burst of dawn, but the
