may be set is convenient. Interesting 

 optical illusions and really valuable 

 studies along that line may be made by 

 a proper placing of the mirror. A piece 

 of plank may be easily slotted so as to 

 hold each unframed mirror edgewise. 

 The mirrors should extend beyond the

An Ideal Camp for Girls. 



It is good for girls and young women 

 to leave their homes in the crowded city 

 and take to the woods during the sum-

 auspices they are to spend the vacation 

 are vastly more important. The best 

 girls camp of whicli the editor has 

 knowledge is Camj) Farwell, at Wells 

 River, A'ermont. The location, environ- 

 ment, equipment, management are ideal. 

 Aliss Julia H. Farwell, the director, has 

 been for many years the head teacher 

 at The Castle, Miss Mason's School for
