THE CATAPULT. THE CATAPULT AND THE RIFLE. BY ARTHUR LINDSLEY. ~I\7HAT are these men doing. Uncle George ? They VV seem as though they were pulling at somethingwith all their might. Yes, that is exactly what Mr. Poynter designed tohave you understand from his picture. They are pullingin earnest, trying to draw down that great beam which yousee above their heads. It is held at the other end by avery powerful spring, which makes it so difficult for themto draw it. Their object is to bring it down quite to theground and fasten it there for a moment with a bolt orbar, until the ropes can be taken away. Then the barwill be pulled away suddenly, and the spring will throwthe beam up with terrible force, so as to strike the beam ordart which you see balanced, and pointed out through theopening in the wall. It is a catapult. But what is a catapult. Uncle George ? What is itfor? What good does it do ? I am sure I never saw any-thing like it. No; you never saw anything like it, Frank ; neithercan
