How Watch Cases are Made.

The many great improvements intro
duccd in the manufacture of the Jas. Boss
Gold Watch Case, have led to similar inn
provcments in the making of silver cases.
Under the old methods, each part of
silver case was made of several pieces of
metal soldered together, requiring great
amount of cutting and soldering, which
softencd the metal and gave it the pliability
of lead rather than the elasticity of silver
Under the improved methods, each part
of the Keystone Silver Watch Case is made
of one solid piece of metal hammered into
shape. The advantages are readily appar-
ent, for every one knows that hammering
hardcns the metal while soldering soitcns it.
To test the superiority of the Keystone
Silver Watch Case, take one of or. weight,
press it squarely in the center when closed,
and it will not give, while case of same
weight Of any other make will give enough
tobreak the crystal. The keystone Silver
Watch Case is made only with silver cap
and gold joints.

LETTER FROM ROsTON.

Ed. JoURNAL:-We have passed bad
winter and have not been cut much 10
get news. We only hnd two or three
pleasant days all through February, but
this month has been very pleasant and
spring like, with the exception OF one snow
sqnall, and very little rain. The Commons
and gardens are beginning to look green.
The Massachusetts Horticultural Society
had yery choice exhibition of flowers at
its Hall on fremont Street. There were
some very handsome and choice flowers on
exhibition.
There also has been Bird Show at the
arc birds of almost every variety. among
the several species of parrot the Austral-
ian is the most beautiful bird, but not
larger than a dove. The largest and also
three feet from tip to tip measuring length
wise Of the bird. Among'th collection IL
a white peacock, which is supposed to be
the only one in the country. The great
est curiosity is the North American Eagle,
measuring nine feet in the spread from zip
10 tip, crosswiss OF the bird. This eagle
has peculiar record, and will, illustrate
the tenaciiy of life possessed by these
birds About year since Mr.. William
Grover, of this City, while cunning at
Sandwich, saw this bird swoop down on
small child playing on the plains, some
distance from any house. He went to the
rescue, and shot at and killed, IA he sup
posed, the vicious bird. He packed the
engle IN box and sent il TO gentleman
in this City for the purpose OF having II
stuffed. When the bird arrived here,
there were signs of life. He carefnlly
nursed il, and now says instead OF stuff.
ing it once, he has to do 80 daily.
The Art Museum here IL very fine
building, both inside and out. The Way
collection OF Egyptian antiquities was
found IN Egypt by the late Mr.. Robert
Hey, OF Linplam, East Lothian, Scotland
between the years of 1928 and 1888. Ii
was sold after his death and was presented
to the Museum in june 1872, by Mr.. q.
Granville Way, OF Boston. The collection
comprises numerous specimens OF each
division Of Egyptian antiquities, illusra.
tive OF tho arts, manners and civilization
and OF the Pantheon, civil life, and funeral
rites OF ancient Egypt. Its chief strength
is its Mummies and collins. some of which
are well preserved, and all would be vari-
able and important additions to any mu--
scum which does mob possess similar speci
mems. Besides these II is remarkable fol
its number Of small objects. Several fin,
pieces Of sculpture have recently been ad
ded, which were collected iu 1885, by III,

A Meritori0us WVrk.-Mr. G. e. Tay-
lor, Of this place, has just issued from this
Office an edition Of his copyrighted work,
entitled "The Druggist's English-German
Reference Book" The work contains the
English and German names with pronun-
ciation) of the drugs commonly called for
IN the retail trade. Also, an assortment OF
directions usually made use OF by physi-
clans in their prescription work, each fol-
lowed by Its German translation, and the
translation by lis pronunciation. The
gender OF the German names of drugs ls
definitely expressed by the Use OF the def
mite article, Der, Die, or Das before each
nonn.
The work meets long felt want among
druggists and physicians throughout the
u. S. who are desirous of making them
selves conversant with German, AZ allied to
their business. They can now, by private
study of this work IN connection with any
standard German text book, soon secure a
knowledge Of German that will be of
practical use in the drug business, or in
the practice of medicine. Mr.. Taylor has
been engaged in the drug business for
many years, and has made special study
of German rs needed in the business. We
believe the work TO be one of merit, and
that 1t will be highly appreciated by all
purchasers. We wish for the author and
his work, abundant success.

Practical Thoughts Marching On.
Vermont, New Hampshire, Michigan,
and now New York falls in line by the
passage last montI, OF the Compulsory
Temperance Edscation bill. Encouraged
by the success in the three former States
mentioned; the scientific department OF the
New York State w. CT. u, introduced
resolution at the annual meeting of the
w. G.. 1. U. in October last, making the
effort to secure a similar bill in that State
the leading line of work for the past win
ter. They wagod campnign similar 10
the one in the advocacy of the Second
Amendment in Ohio last fall, and came
out crewnsd with victory as the following
enactment will show, only two in the
House ha wing the courage to commil
themselves in opposition to the bill:
The people OF the State of New York
represented in senate and assembly, do
enact IA follows
Sec. l. Provision shall he m ade by the
proper local school authorities for in
| sttracting oil pupils in all schools suppor
troll, in physiology and hygiene, with spec.
ial reference TO the effects of alcoholic
drinks, stimulants and narcotics upon the
human system.
Sec. g. No certificate shall be granted
any person TO teach in the public schools
VI the state oil New York after Janury /,
1885, who has not passed q satisfactory
examination IN physielogy and hygiene
with special reference to the effects OF alco
holic drinks, sliinulants and narcotics upon
the human system.
If this bill is properly enforced ih'
million and half Of children OF the EN-
pire State will be forewarned and fore
armed against the evils that await then
when ushered into the corrupt and adul-
terated business world.
1t may not be generally known, but |
Ia nevertheless fact, that The oiigina

perance education legislation in the fou
States named, comes wholly from an ad

T here is a report circulated that a special
effort is to be made to defeat the two candidates
for clerk-Mr. Strain in the township and Mr.:
Obiinger In the corporation. IL this proves
true it should open the eyes Of our people 10
the fact that there must yet remain an element
who want the records kept after the manner of
the old Democratic ring when taxes reached six
per cent, and when the stubs in the order book
the only record kept of the township pro-
ceedings-showed that over 1880 was drawn
nut by the Trustees, With nothing left in the
treasury and nothing to show for what this
money was used. And the records in the cor
p"raiion showed "All paid in, all paid out"
with boast from the clerk that he would defy
any one To tell from the records what the in
debiedness of the corporation was. The rec
ards are now in excellent shape, and if a raid
is to be made ON The officers for their efforts in
this direction the taxpayers have right. to
question moiyes and ask for an explanation.
