Starting the Stopped.

One day an old farmer borrowu a
mule from his neighbor. After heAad
finished his work he sent his fouryeen-
year-old boy to take it home. The boy
had gone about half mile whep the
mule stopped and positively refnsed
to go any further. After the boy had
almost pulled his arms off trying to
get him to go an old doctor came along
and asked, 'Why. my son. what y the
matter with your muleE
"Why. sir. can't you see, ne has
balked!" cried the boy.
"Well,'' said the old man, opening
his case and taking out bottle Ia
beled carbolic acid, well see what we
can do for him." and he poured some
of the acid on the mules back, and In
much less time than it takes 10 write
it the mule was galloping down the
road at rate he had never gone ~
fore.
The boy looked up in surprise AND
said. Doctor. have you got any mars
of that stuff"
"Yes," answered the man.
"Well, doctor, are you sure You h4ya

UNIQUE MAPS FOR AvlAToRs.

Aviation has made such advance
within the last year that it now takes
rank with yachting and automobilina

only, have been published.

plete one in existence, WAS published

UP by the army geographical de-
partment and is evidence of the value
set upon aeroplanes by the French
war office. The new map was drawn
to silence the complaints of the airinen
who declared that previous maps were
incomplete and We're little better than
useless in the London Mail flight
from Paris to the eastern frontier.
Experimenting in the making of a new
map was begun by Commandment Pola-

ULTRA MICROSCOPE PERFECTED
BY the Aid of New Light System.

Most people are more or less fa-
miliar with the ordinary microscope
used in scientific research. A good
miscrope will effect comparative en-
largement of about 1900 diameters.
This ordinary good miscroscope is
mounted upon a stand, bringing the
slide upon which the object is viewed
several inches above the level of the
table. Underneath the object glass
of the instrument is a small mirror
arranged to cast a concentrated shaft
of light upward and through the slide
upon which the object rests. The sole
object of the mirror has been to put a
background of light against the atom,
thus bringing it out to the eye which
is looking through the dark barrel Of
the micscrope.
That smallest particle visible to the
unaided eye of normal power is
l-l00th part of an inch in diameter.
Under this microscope OF 1900 diamet-
eters' magnification this particle would
appear about 9r10 of an inch across.
An ordinary garden pea is about 3-16
Of an inch in diameter, and under such
powerful magnification it would APP
pear a globe almost Is feet in diane
ter.
1t was after this compound micro
scope had been centuries in developing
ana almost 100 Years after Andrew
Pritchard had first used water dia-
mohds as microscope lenses that scien-
tists began to wonder if throwing a
reflected light upward underneath the

GARDiN ER,

dark on the other side of the room. In
the same way. regardless of the dark
of night. the face of the moon showed
light reflected from the sun.
This was the incentive suggesting
doing away with the background of
light in the common microscope and
lighting up the object itself so that the
lighted object might-between the dark
barrel of the microscope and the dark
background replacing the rejecting
mirror-stand out as do the dust par
tieles in the shaft of sunlight enter
ing the darkened-room.
With this basic idea in view. the
ultra microscope" has been perfected
This term ultra has no significance
in the sense of the ultra violet rays of
science; it is merely that with this
system of lighting only the object
viewed, and giving the object a dark
.ened background. still greater effec-
tiVeness is given to microscopic re-
search.
In Zsigmondys microscope, the OBJ
ject of 1-500 diameters is placed at
the extreme left of the stand. At
the extreme right is lens into which
the rays of the sun or of a powerful
arc light are received. The interview
ing upright appurtenances are lenses
and diaphragms designed to regu-
late and transmit the light only to
the small particles which are to be ex-
amined. Here the effectiveness of the
microscope is demonstrated.
This microscope in use is the same
microscope of 1900 diameters which
most commonly has the mirror light
behind it and which allows of an OBJ
ject 1250,O00 part of an inch TO he
studied under the so-called "Tyn-
dali" system of lighting only the sus-
pended particles in cup of clear
liquid an object of $4,000, 000th part
of an inch becomes visible. That is,
an object that is 20 times too small
to be shown in the same microscope
with mirror reflection behind it looms
up in it's own light to the point of
visibility.
Which is an optical delusion, in that
the object itself is not seen, but the
aura of light surrounding and perme-
atinS it brings it into the limits of
visibility. Under which conditions the
pea three sixteenths of an inch in
diameter and appearing about Is feet
through would become fiery ball 500
