FOR THE CHILDREN An Achromatic Lena. Many of the boyH and girls no doubt have read or heard of an achromatic lens without knowing exactly what the term means, says the Chicago News. It means a leus that transmits light without dividing it into its constituent colors. A ray of ordinary light Is com posed of the seven colors of the rain bow, us Kir Isaac Newton showed us by the use of. the prism, each color hav ing a difTereut degree of refraugibility.

When a direct ray is refracted, therefore, it divides Itself into the colored rays, which deviate variously from the straight line the simple ray and thus surround the object viewed with a halo of those eolors. It was thought for a long time that this defect could not lie remedied, but nlxiut 17.V) a man named John Dolluuil mude an Improvement that accomplished the desired purpose. He found that flint glass and crown glass differ In their power of dispersing colors, and he made a dou ble leus of flint glass, and the combina tion of the two gives an almost colorless Image. The achromatic leus is of great value to astronomers and also to users of the microscope. A Curs For Gapes.
