INSECT SIGHT.

With respect to the vision Of the
insects forming the higher forms Of
that life the best authoritize enter
view, is that insects see as in mo-
tain two theories. One. the older
sale. each lense forming a part Of the
total picture.
Now the older view is supported
by the experiment OF placing thin
slice of an eye under a microscope,
when the image Of any object re-
Elected from the mirror is seen to be
transmitted through each Of the
hexagona lenses. It is claimed that
the rough model Of an insects eye
may be had in the shape Of glass
shade Of the form Of a half-sphere,
saw about sixteen inches in diameter.
Place the eye at the center OF the
globe and paint on it, surface the
1icture Of the outer world as seen
through it.

h. be Of an investigative turn OF
mind that there will be represented
some 25.G00 Of them. These proper
tlons, roughly speaking, are those
found in the eye Of a dragon fly.
II, as the next step in the investi-
CATION. instead Of the details Of the
picture Of each square, one places a
