What it Is That Causes the Marvels of the Mirage. The cause of the mirage is now well un- derstood—so well understood that there are ways of making small mirages for ex- periment. The simplest explanation that I can give is to say that the rays of light com- ing from the thing that is seen are bent in going through layers of air that are differ- ently heated. When these rays are so bent as to be almos: level with a layer ot air they do not enter it at all, but (so to | speak) glance off and are reflected as a glass mirror or a body of water woula, if it lay between the eye and the treesor | ships. This explanation wilil zive yon a general 1dea of the cause of the mirage. In the case of the desert the reflecting air-mirror is pelieved by the observer to be water, and the image changes its place as you go for- ward, just as a reflection would move as you advance on a glass mirror. In the case of the ship the air-mirror seems to be above you, and reflects the ship which is really out of sight over the horizon. But I do not pretend to explain about the dir- ferent images that may possibly be formed under different conditions of the atmos- | phere—that is a schoolroom task, and a hard one. Tne “fata Morgana” is a form of modi- fication of the mirage oiten seen in the straits that separate the toe of the ‘‘boot’” of Italy and the island of Sicily, just op- posite.” When the sun is just at the right positicn and the sea and air are also ready to help, strange views of objects upon the opposite coast are seen from Calabria— sometimes magnified and seen against a background of colored mist. ‘‘Fata Mor- gana” means the Fairy of ihe Sea. It is said that sometimes during a hot and still summer day, by placing the eye close to the surface of a'dry road a mirage can be seen, but I have never tried it. Before these and other strange sights were understood and explained, we need not wonder that sailors and traveliers held manv strange beliefs in regard to them.— St. Nicholas. ———— THE CALL CALENDAR.
