21.--A TOWER OF GLASS.

[Illustration]

An effective combination is shown in Fig. 21. A carafe, partly filled

with water to give stability, forms the basis of the structure. Upon

this a trio of wine-glasses, lying horizontally, are arranged, and so

held while the bottle, half filled with water, is placed in position

above them. A little careful adjustment will secure an accurate

reproduction of the experiment as illustrated.
