OBSERVE STARS IN DAYTIME
.IP'
If One is Sufficiently Interested They
Can Be Seen From Bot
tom of Well.
Not .only have the astronomers de
vised a means whereby they may ob
serve the stars In the daytime, but
anyone may. If he choose, see them at
such time If he will go to the trouble
to do so. At the bottom of a deep
well an observer on looking up will
see the stars If the sky Is clear and
the sun does not happen to be shining
directly Into the wfcll.
Why cannot the stars be seen from
the surface of the ground In the day
time? They certainly give forth their
usual amount of light, and It will be
remembered that the moon Is frequent
ly seen during the day.
The question resolves Itself Into the
capacity of the human eye. During
the day the sun shines on particles
suspended In the atmosphere Itself,
and Its rays are reflected In every
direction from the different particles.
We thus have diffused light by means
of which one can see objects not di
rectly in the sunlight.
If it were not for this diffusion of
light, or irregular refraction, as it Is
called we could not possibly see any
thing not In the direct sunlight. Now,
these rays Irregularly reflected enter
the eye in enormous numbers, so the
Intensity Is comparatively great with
starlight.
But to a person In a deep well or
mine shaft only the perpendicularly
reflected rays enter the eye. and from
only those particles directly over the
mouth of the shaft. Thus compara
tively little light enters the eye, aud
any starlight tlmt comes down at that
time is eusily perceived and the pres
ence of the star is recognized.
DON'T LIFT RABBITS BY EARS
Expert Condemns Practice Which Has
Always Been More or Less In
General Use.
Some people seem to think that he
cause rabbits' eurs are so long it is u
good reason to use them as handles.
They have told me that "the mother
rabbit carries her young around by the
ears!"
I have had a pretty g<TOd opportunity
to observe such a feat, but I have nev
er seen such a performance. It is all
right to hold them by the ears, but 1
always put my hand or arm under
their hind legs to lift them up, and
then I know I am not hurting them.
One peculiarity I have always no
ticed about rabbits is their apparent
lack of clear vision. If you will no
tice their eyes you will see that they
scarcely, If ever, move the eyeball to
look up or down or at either side, as
a cat does. Tou can't tell when they
are looking directly at you, as you can
with a cat.
If you throw a carrot to them they
will not sight it and go directly to it,
but will smell about with nose to the
ground till they find It, and they may
go six inches past it a few times be
fore they strike it.
Put a rabbit on a chair, table or box,
and he will go carefully to the edge,
leaning his head over and seemingly
wondering how far he Is from the
ground, whereas a cat would think
nothing of springing down from such
a height.—Boys' Life. '
