with the comment that the force of
advertising could no further go. In

cerned, it is pretty strong, am
ready to admit, but just read this
advertisement from Spanish news
paper, and tell me whether you don't
look upon it as q most curious

" A poor Jewish matchmaker of
Kishenev in Russia, has just finished,
after two years. constant labour, an
ingenious mechanical clock, which
at certain hours of the day plays the
National Anthem "God protect the
Tsar," and gave mimic represen-
tation of the Coronation ceremony,
+, complete in all details When the
clock strike the hour, two. doors fly
open and disclose a perfect model of
the Cathedral of the Assumption at
Moscow, where, as is we'll known

doors of the Cathedral close. This
ingenious piece of mechanism will
be presented to their Imperial Ma
jesties by the constructor immediate.
