n. uvity ID about TO be put TO
- the severest test to which
1t has yet been subjected.
The German Dutch expedition,
. soon to fare forth to the South
Seas to observe the coming solar
eclipse, win be equipped with a
peculiarly constructed telescope
just completed at the Zeiss works
in Jena. by the aid Of which 1t
win be possible to conduct scien-
tific experiments of incalculable
value. fA
This instrument Is unique by
reason Of its double construction,
the shorter Of the two arms-three
and a half metres in length, with
an objective or lens twenty cent?
metres in diameter-to be directed
at the sun. while the longer arm.
measuring eight and a half metres,
will lie on the ground and receive
the suns rays indirectly as reflect
ed from a huge mirror. .
PLATES OF GEAT SIZE.
The Photographic plates meas
ure 45x45 centimetres and are
B thus Of unusual size.
The eclipse win be visible IN. its
totality only over a narrow area,
100 kilometres in width, extending
from Cape Cardaful in Africa
through the Indian Ocean and on
the shores Of Australia
The choice Of basic operations
Is very limited, owing to the fact
that the complete eclipse can be
witnessed only from certain small
islands lying within the eclipsed
area, and of these. the expedition
has chosen the so-called Christmas
islands, lying to the south of the
japanese coast.
II the experiments are crowned
with success the expedition will re-
turn with a priceless collection of
Photographic plates, the measure
ment Of which will form by far
the most important part Of the
work.
According to Einstein, the deflec-
ton Of the stars from their nor
NAL course amounts to aboutSone-
fifth Of a .milimeter as measured
on the smaller instruments. where
as, on the larger ones, this deflec-
ton is estimated at one-twentieth
Of q millirneter.

I was bothered with my back and

A heavy, bearing down feeling across
