Why IL Didn,t DO.

A Brooklyn parent gave his daughter, on her
18th birthday, handsome watch, which he
had purchased from a jeweler with whom he
was on friendly terms. One night the girl for
got to wind it, and in the morning the hands
and wheels were motionleSS. She took 1t for
granted that she had used the watch careleSSly,
and that something was broken inside. She
did not like 10 say anything to her father
about It, but, going 10 Fulton street jeweler
the next day. asked him to look at the watch
and see what was the matter with IL. The
jeweler took 1t. put magnifying glass before
his eye, opened the case, touched the wheels
with pick. and remarked that 1t needed
cleaning, as 1t was very dirty. On inquiring
the cost OF such an operation, she was told
that it would be $3.50 The young lady was
amazed, for she had had the watch only three
days, and was reluctant to believe that 1t re-
quired so extensive renovation. She passed
on to the best-known jewelers. store In Brook
Ign, and, handing the watch to the man at the
counter, preferred the same request as before.
He went through the same process of inSpec-
ton, and said the handspring was broken and
the watch needed cleaning. Inquiring the cost
again, she was told 1t would be 81. She said
she would see her father about 1t. and at nigaG
when he came home she told him Of her days
doings, and said his friend must have cheated
him. Her father took the watch to New York
In the morning, and In the course OF the day
stepped into bis friends store where he bought

A Dogs Movements Photographed.

1t will be remembered that some two or three
years ago Mr. Muybridge, the photographer,
took series Of pictures of eX-Gov. Stanford's
celebrated horse Occident, wherein was delin-
Gated the position of the limbs Of the animal at
every stage OF the step, the LIKENESS being
struck so instantaneously that, although the
horse was going at q 300 gait, the fine line OF
the whip was not even blurted. The same prin-
ciple has recently been applied to the coursing
OF greyhounds, Mr.. Muybridge having been eX-
perimenting at ex-Gov. Stanfords mansion.
the celebrated dog Bulldozer belonging to Nat
Brooks, OF this city. The cramped and improb-
able positions OF the dog, as shown In the mega
tiyeS, would scarcely be believed by any one
who had not seen the fact recorded by the
''unerring finger OF light" 1t Is usual to deln-
cate greyhound extended, but these negatives,
among other positions, give the animal with his
limbs gathered under him, storing his strength
for the spring. The dog Is got at speed by hold
ing him on one side, while an attendant taxes a
rabbit across line drawn in front OF the ca
mera, the ground being covered with a sheet OF
| India rubber, TO prevent any dust or pebbles
| flying up to impair the clear-cut outlines of the
picture; the moment the dog passes this front OF
| circuit Is complete, and the trustworthy COLO
| dion has put the fleeing vision on permanent
| record. The Occident photographs took all
| horseme0 by surprise, they having no concep
| ton Of the cramped attitude OF the animal In
| certain stages or mis- stride, and the yDgracefu
| aspect shown when he Is gathering his strength
