354 LITTLE FOLKS 
in Paris, one had only to take a microscope to read all the news 
with ease. But as there were too many waiting to read to be 
satisfied in that way, the photograph was put into a magic lantern, 
which makes things look larger, you know, and thrown on to a screen. 
Clerks were employed to copy the messages and letters, and send 
them out to be read. 
Perhaps some day, our books will be photographed, and we 
will read them with microscopic spectacles. We cannot predict to 
what results this peering into nature will lead us. But, undoubt- 
edly, the more we see of its mysteries, the more we shall admire 
and wonder.
