Mleroseopie Measurement.

The measurement Of microscopic %.
jects Is done by rulings on glass.
which are produced by wonderfully
delicate machines. These rulings are
constructed 30 as to accurately divide
an inch or any other unit Of measure
ment into any desired number OF
parts-as. for instance. one one-hun'
dredth Of an inch or one one-thou
sandth OF an inch or even one ten
thousandth of an inch. The finest rul'
ings thus far produced by any of the
machines are at the rate Of something
like 100000 to the inch. Some Idea OF
the closeuess of the ruled lines can be
obtained from considering that thou
sand such lines would occupy only the
space included In the thickness OF q
sheet of ordinary writing paper.-New
York American.

The Woo Bird's Walk,

An ogle eyed WOO bird once went for q
walk
BY the side Of the sounding sea.
There was nobody present to whom he
could talk.
But his knowledge Of words was confined
to a squawk.
So It didn't much matter, you see.
Nothing matters much down by the sea.
The ogle eyed WOO promenaded the beach
That was flecked with the flying foam,
And he longed In his heart for tho right
of free speech,
And he tapped wide his wings. and he
gave loud screech
And then turned right around and went
home
Yes. indeed.
