I've Of Submarine.

The great fault of the early subma.
rines was that they could not see once
they were below the surface Of the
water. The Invention of the pcriscope
altered all that and gave the modern
submarine a marvellous eye by means
OF which 1t could see over the surface
of the ocean, though the body Of the
submarine is completely below the
waves. The eye Of the submarine is a
straight, hollow tube starting from the
steering chamber of the vessel and pro
jecting above the surface of the waves
when the boat is submerged. AS the
periscope is only n matter of six inches
IN diameter and only projects some
eighteen inches above the waves. it is
a most difficult thing to see by an en-
envy. Its total length Is about fifteen
feet. The submarines eye is really a
combination of telescope and camera
Obscura. At the top is n powerful lens,
and inside at intervals all the way
down is "A series OF mirrors which carry
the reflection of what is above the sur
face TO the watcher in the submarine
