Gold You Can See Through.

Gold is extremely interesting in
many ways. 1t can be beaten so
thin that a quarter of million
leaves of it piled on top of one
another would only reach an inch
in height. When beaten into the
thinncst possible sheet it becomes
transparent. Gold, too, can be
drawn into the finest wire of any
metal. Michael Faraday, the
great British chemist, once CAL
culated that he could make a gild
wire from four sovereigns long
enough to go round the earth.-

bacon was a contemporary Of
Shakespeare, and possessed all that
varied knowledge which is apparent
in the author of the plays.
2.-Writing for the stage was
then accounted disreputable. a man
in the position OF Francis Bacon
would naturally shrink from rccog.

assumed name.

best existing in his day
2.-It is fairly certain that he had
some legal training.
3.-The details which we possess
of his life in London are very re-
markable. His rapid rise to the
position of actor.manager is in
itself proof OF more than ordinary
ability.
4.-Shakespeare's contemporaries
were Jealous of him. IL he was so
great an impostor as Is now alleged
by the Baconians, why did not one
OF those contemporaries JON
son, for instance-show him up?
5,-During the portion of his life
which is known as 1.-The interval"
we are not told positively that he
was NOT educating himself We are
only asked if it was likely that he
was.
6.-There is no question as to his
having been the author of some
portions of the plays. Moreover,
it has been fixed and yenerab BILE
belief for nearly 300 years that he
WAS the author of them all.
