MUSICAL BOTTLES.

Provide two glass bottles, and tune them by pouring water into them,

so that each corresponds to the sound of a different tuning-fork. Then

apply both tuning-forks to the mouth of each bottle alternately, when

that sound only will be heard, in each case, which is reciprocated by

the unisonant bottle, or, in other words, by that bottle which contains

a column of air susceptible of vibrating in unison with the fork.
