The Fairy-Land of Science
·

But
people
often
ask,
what
is
the
use
of
learning
all
this?
If
you
do
not
feel
by
this
time
how
delightful
it
is
to
fill
your
mind
with
beautiful
pictures
of
nature,
perhaps
it
would
be
useless
to
say
more.
But
in
this
age
of
ours,
when
restlessness
and
love
of
excitement
pervade
so
many
lives,
is
it
nothing
to
be
taken
out
of
ourselves
and
made
to
look
at
the
wonders
of
nature
going
on
around
us?
Do
you
never
feel
tired
and
"out
of
sorts,"
and
want
to
creep
away
from
your
companions,
because
they
are
merry
and
you
are
not?
Then
is
the
time
to
read
about
the
starts,
and
how
quietly
they
keep
their
course
from
age
to
age;
or
to
visit
some
little
flower,
and
ask
what
story
it
has
to
tell;
or
to
watch
the
clouds,
and
try
to
imagine
how
the
winds
drive
them
across
the
sky.
No
person
is
so
independent
as
he
who
can
find
interest
in
a
bare
rock,
a
drop
of
water,
the
foam
of
the
sea,
the
spider
on
the
wall,
the
flower
underfoot
or
the
starts
overhead.
And
these
interests
are
open
to
everyone
who
enters
the
fairy-land
of
science.
