CURIOUS FREAK OF THE CAMERA.-A lady
friend Of ours had the carte dc risite photo
graph Of her little giri7aged one year
taken the other day. Imagine the astonish-
ment of herself and operator, when, upon
printing from the negative, the head Of an
other child appeared over the right shout
der of the little sitter 1t was a younger
child than the latter, and, besides, did not
resemble it in the least. Therefore, the ex-
ira face could not have been caused by a
sudden turning of the little girls head, or
from any reflection from the latter. 1t is,
to say the least, q curious case-Plair
Dealer.
So we should say-just one head too
curious. Who is this wonderful photo
grapher who hes this freakish camera2
Now this thing is too nonsensical for in
telligent people to believe. We have seen
such photographs before. We have seen
deluded mortals who thought the extra face
q spirit face, and we can tell such persons
how the photographs are made.
First imagine a ~vignette photograph Of
any individual and apparently in the rear,
and at one side of ii, the shadowy outlines
Of the spirit face In order 70 take such q
picture, it is necessary for enc individual To
sit in the ordinary way. The possessOr ol
the spirit face stands behind and looks ovel
the shoulder Of the other with q large pane
Of glass before his face The slight opacity
Of the glass renders the picture of the latter
individual indistinct and gives the shadowy
outlines to the spirit face. If you don't be.
lieve this to be the way in which the hum-
bug photographs Of spirits, etc, are OBJ,
tanned, go to any Of our photographers with
q large pane Of glsss-ay four feet square
-and try it. 1,-L

AMERICAN WATCHES.
REASONS WHY THE
ERIC G
Made at WALTHAM, MASS.

Is TIE BEST
1t is made on the best principle. Its frame is
| composed of soLID PLATEs. No jar can inter
fera with the harmony of its working and no sud
den shock can damage its machinery. Every
piece is made and finished by machinery Itself IA
nous FORTS novelty, as well as for its effective
ness) and is therefore properly made. The watch
5 what all mechanism should b~e-ACCURATE,
SIMPLE, STRONG AND ECoEoMICAL. E1-
cept some high grades, too costly for general use,
foreign watches are chiefly made by women and
boys. Such watches are composed Of several hun
dred pieces, screwed and riveted together, and re-
quirs constant repairs to keep them in any kind Of
order. All persons who have carried ''sncres,"
'Iepines'' aud English Patent Levers, are per-
fsctly well aware Of the truth Of this statement.
Al the beginning Of our enterprise, more than
ten years ago, It was our first object to make q
thoroughly good low priced watch for the million,
to take the place of these forsign inpositions-the
refuse Of foreign fsctories-which we're entirely
unssleable st home and perfectly worthless every
where.
How well we have accomplished this may be IN
derstood from the fact, that after so many years
Of public trial, We now make M0BE THAN HALF
OF WATCHES SOLD IN TIE UHITED
STATES, and that no others have ever given such
universal satisfaction. While this department Of
our business is continued with increased facilities
for perfect work, we are st present engaged in the
manufacture Of watches Of the very HIGHEST
-0naDa RrUuN uNUdErhr, unequaI-
led by anything hithetto made by ourselves, an
Unsurpassed by anything made 10 the world. For
this purpose we have the amplest facilities. We
have erected an addition to our msin buildings
expressly for this branch Of our business, and
have filled it with the best workmen in our ser.
vice. New machines and appliances have been
constructed, which perform their work with cln
summate delicacy and exactness. The choicest
and most approved materials only are used and
We challenge comparison between this grade Of our
work and the finest imported ohroRometers. We
do no. pretend to sell our watches for LESS MONEY
than foreign watches, but we do assert without
fear of contradiction that for the same money our
product is incomparsbly superior. All our watches
of whatever grade, are fully warranted and this
wsrTantee is good at all times against US or our
agents in all parts OF tbs world.
CAUTION.-The public are cautioned to buy
only Of respectable dealers. All persons selling
eo1nterfeits will be prosecuted.

HORSES AND SUSsTRoKE.-Probably not less
than & dozen horses died in this city yester-
from sunstroke. The East Cleveland Street
Railroad Company, we understand, lost
three. Now there is an easy and certain
prevention which every owner Of a horse
should employ during these hot days. Il
is used with success in the South, and has
been adopted by the Kinsman Street Rail
road Company of this city. Take a sponge
the size of your hand and taste n it firmly
under the bride on the poll of the horses
head. This sponge should then be wet two
or three times during the day, and no at
tack of Coup dc Solid need be feared.
