People passing up and down Main
street, in front of Mr.. r. Mornhinreg's
iewelry shop, are struck with the novel;
ty of little clock that stands in his
slow-window. It is only about eight
inches in height and about three inches
wide. On the top, in the centre is &
rod to which is attached cord with a
ball at the end, on both sides of which
are two smaller rods. The curious fea-
tnre about this little clock, is that the
ball and cord goes around from one
side to the other, winding around and
unwinding from the little rods that are
on each side Of the clock, acting as the
pendulum. It is d real novelty and is
also splendid advertisement, as all
who pass do not fail to look at it, and
of course see the elegant display Of
