Why Star, Twinkle.

Who can tell why 1t Is that the stars
sometimes seem to twink and win
kle," as one small boy says, more than
at others? And why do they twinkle
anyway? The reason they twinkle IL
that their light pierces through many
different heated and moving currents
Of air, which makes the light reach
our eyes In crooked or twinkling line
instead Of straight and steady one.
Wise men tell as that much twinkling
foretells bad weather, because itsh0ws
that the currents Of air are much dis-
turbed.

persons left must decide upon q word
to call "teakettle." The word should
have different spellings and must have
different meanings. as fair. fare; hare,
hair; eve. you: do. due. dew. etc. The
two sent out may be called In and be-
gin by asking any person in the room
any question they wish, which must be
answered by using In the sentence the
word ''teakettle" instead Of the word
selected. The two must guess from
the meaning of the sentence what the
word is. Sometimes they cannot guess
and have to be told. Send any others
out you wish to next time.
