How Pendulums Began to Swing. Various dates have been given t the invent ion of the pendulum clock, which superseded the old time water clocks, but the story goes that who lived from 1884 1648, when standing one day in the Metropolitan church of Pisa noticed a lamp which was hanging from the ceiling and which, having been moved by accident, continued for some time to awing backward forward with some regularity.

Those you that are enough to get to the seashore this summer no doubt will gather specimens of seaweeds. yon know that they grow without routs In this respect arc altogether different from plants that grow on land, obtaining their sustenance en- from water. Many of them about in the water, but some are fastened to rocks and things the bottom of the sea means of a stem with a sticky surface, MB explorers tell us that some of the weeds found at the bottom arc larger than any of the trees that grow on land. They form great groves and woods, with their branches interlaced, making arches and grottoes of wonderful beauty I and of many cut shades of brown, olive, pink, green and carmine.
