ABOUT " ATCUES W Watch"is from
Saxon word signifying to wake. At
first the watch was as large as a saucer;
it had weights, and was used as a
''poclict clock" The earliest known
use of the modern name occurs in 1862
which mentions that Edward VI. had
"0ne larum or watch Of iron, the case
being likewise Of iron gilt, with two
pluinmetts. OF lead" The first great
Improvement, the substitution Of the
spring for weights, was in 1850. The
earliest springs were not coiled, bat
only straight pieces OF steel. Early
watches had only one hand, and re
Qnired winding twice aday The dials
were Of silver or brass the cases had
no crystals but opened at the back and
front, and were four or five inches in
diameter. 4 plain watch cost the
equivalent OF 81 500 in currency, and
after one was ordered it took wear to
make it. There is q watch in Swiss
museum only three three sixteenths Of
an inch i'll diameter, inserted in the
top Of a pencil case. Its little dial
indicates not only hours, minutes and
seconds, but also days of the month.
II is q relic of old times, when watches
were inserted in saddles, snuff boxes,
shirt studs, breast-pins, bracelets and
fingcr-rings. Some were fantastic
oval, octangular, cluciform, or in the
shape of pearl, nelson's, tulips or cof-

Il Bad xix.

1t was one day in the early history
of Detroit tIiat John Snow was born.
lie would probably have weighed nine
pounds if there had been any scales in
the Territory TO weigh him on. As
there was no way 10 weigh him he
went his way uuWeigneJj. (Patent.D
When John Snow had crawl led over
the piol eer logs, rolled in the mud and
eaten johnny cake until he was fourteen
years old his mother died Ii his
father had been like some men LIE
would have put weel on his ha5, en-
gagged cheap housekrcper, and con-
tinued business at the old stand with
out any interruption. But he wasn't
like some mCn. He married a cousin
who had two or three children big
enough to fight John, and SO the boys
aunt became lis mother, and his father
became his uncle.
LII due time John Snow had q sister
No lie hadn't either. 1t was girl,
bat he didn't know whether she was a
step-sister or q cousin or halfs!stcr.
Some said that the giil would he his
grandmother if she lived long en- ugh,
and he was almost discouraged. In
about two years more boy was born,
and John figured and figured until he
made out that he was a half-uncle to
his step brother, and that his step
Irother~Was his own uncle.
While John was of on Z fishing eX-
cur5ion at Lake Superior one OF his
haIfbrotbers married and John came
home to find another baby. lie want
ell to know what relation lie WAS to
this youngstcr, and he marked the
fence all over with. chalk and could
not cone to any satisfactory conclu~
sion. 1t rather seemed to him that he
was n Quarter-brOther or 4 step uncle,
but there was the fact staring him in
the face that the childs step uncle was
also its step grandfather, and it might
be It's own cousin for all he could make
out.
For two or three years John Snow
mopcd around the Indians and fur
buyers, and then in n iit of desperation
married one of his aunt step-mother's
daughters and became btother-in-law
to his cousin-haif- son-in-Iaw
TO his aunt-step-mOther, and the same
to his father-step-uncle He might
have lived on and been happy if the
public had let him alone, but school
teachers went on and made out that
he was his Unci aunt and step moth
er's grandfather. and that LIE was no
relation to himself, and he pinned away
and died.

PERMANENT CURE FOR CANCER
Mrs. NJ A. V. gives in the Country
Gentleman this process for curing can
Ger: \ sticking plaster is put over
the caucer with circular piece cut
out of the center little larger than the
cancer, and a small circular rim of
healthy skin next TO it exposed. Then
a plaster, made of chloride of zinc.
blood root, and wheat -four, IS spread
on yiece of muslin of the size of the
circular opening, and is applied to the
cancer for twenty-four hours. On re-
moving it the cancer will be found as
though burnt into it, appearing of the
color and hardness of an old shoe, and
the circular rim outside of it will ap-
pear white and parboilcd as if scaldcd
by hot steam The wound is now
dressed. and the outside rim soon
suppurates, and the cancer comes out
hard lump, and the place heals up.
The plaster kills the cancer, SO that
it sloughs out like dead flesh, and never
grows again. The application IS pain.
fl, hut the pain is Of comparatively
brief duration, which 'ary one so af-
fccted cheerfully endures. Not a case
has been known of the reappearance of
the cancer where this remedy has been
applied This cure for cancer was
published in 1866 Perhaps there are
many who can tell more about it. -'
