THE TELESCOPE

For more than three centuries the telescope has been in use, and an equal length of time there has been controversy as to who was the in ventor of this instrument, which is today of very great importance to the wOrld-particularly to navigation. Des Cartes gives the credit of the first construction to James Metins, who, he says, was amusing himself about the year 1590 with making mirrors and burning glasses. He discovered that one of them was con-
 cave and the other was convex, and
 upon adjustment, he found that by
 looking through them distant objects
 appeared very large and distinct. Tn
 fact, without knowing it. he had made a telescope"
 Borellus, who wrote a book, ''De Vero TelescOpii Inventore," ascribes the invention to ZachariaS Jansen.
