Calculations Necessary to Produce the
 Nautical Almanac.
 It may safely be said that no one outside the publishing office nas read the entire Nautical Almanac from be- ginning to end. but each figure of the printed almanac Is in the office ex amined twice and read three times.
 The total number of figures exceeds a million; but, great as that number is, 1t is trifling compared with the mum Der of figures employed in the calcula- tons, as the almanac figures repre- sent "bare" results only The moor for instance. requires for it's calcu. lation more than d million and half of figures. and similarly with other branches os the work, such as the sun. the planets. etc. Contrary to the general opinion. practically every fig are in the book Is fresh from year to year
 The tables from which nearly all the work is calculated have been original ly constructed from the labors of the astronomical observer and to d large extent from the observations of the sun, moon and planets made at the Royal observatory. Greenwich. tele- scopes and other astronomical appF ances are conspicuonSly absent, as the work of the staff is purely mathemau cal and not observational.--Lond Telegraph.

TIE ELECTE0SC0PE.
Instrument by Which the Presence of

 Electricity is Detected.
 The electroscope is an instrument for ts,e detection of electricity. It depends ror its action on tie principle that bodies charged with Ike electricity re- pel, while those charged with unlike electricity attract each other. The ordi- uary pith ball suspended on silk thread is the simplest form oI the in- strument.
 The most common type of electro scope is that devised by Bennett in f7s7 and known as the gold leaf elec- troscope II consists Of two strips of rold leaf or thin aluminium foil sus- pended from the lower extremity of a conductor within a glass bottle or jar. The upper end of the conductor ter inmates in ball or plate !n case the Instrument Is 10 be used as condenS- fnc eJccilosrope If body charged with positive electricity is brought near the knob the eiectroscope the nega- tive eiectrie3t% will be attracted to the knob and thr positive repelled to the leaves. which diverge. If now the fin ger is touched to the knob the positive electricity Ia draw off and the leaves collapse while the negative electricity . held bound Removing the charged body, the leaves will diverge again, charged with negative electricity. In this case thc instrument can be used to determine the nature of q charge Of \ body brought near it. as with q posi- tive charge the leaves will collapse and with negative charge spread farther 0part-EXchange
