Doubtless every one has observed
while travelling by train that the
trees or houses in the distance APP
pear to be speeding along in the
same direction as the train, while
the nearer objects are fast reced-
ing. Many, too, have observed that
the top of a level wall built on a
steep incline appears to slope up
ward in a contrary direction to the
hill itself at nearly the same angle
to the apparent level, and some
have curiously regarded the ghost
like gliding and vanishing of dark
shadows while passing a double row
of fencing, but the following are
not SO commonly remarked:
One might stand for several min
utes watching the revolutions of the
cups of an anemometer-for meas
uring the velocity of the wind-and
still be puzzled as to the real way
they are turning round. Gaze up at
them when there is an uncertain
breeze blowing. They revolve rap
idly, and you are perhaps perplexed
as to their direction. As the wind
subsidies you would expect to find it
easier to tell the direction by the
slower revolution; but, as a matter
of fact, the difficulty is increased.
With the varying speed your first
impression is that such and such
is the direction. A moment later
you reverse that idea, and the Ion
ger you gaze the more it seems as if !
they are spinning round erratically
in every possible direction, whereas,
of course, they can only turn one
way.
