"a O'CLOCK.

Clocks.

Now that the nations have adopted
the plan Of a universal day." begin.
ming for all the world at Greenwich
midnight and counted from zero mp b.
twenty four hours, a new dial-diyision
for g clock, and watches has become
a great de'idcratum. The inventor who
dcyl'os a simple and perfectly clear
method Of indicating to the eye and ear
the hour reached by watch and clock,
respectively, will be- a public bene-
itctor II will be mnniicslly unsatis-
factory to have our clocks striking
~ O'Clock. and 1t seems difficult and
expensive b. have our Watches recon-
strucicd to mark twcnly-four hours
by a single revolution Of the hour hand.
In respect TO public clock. 1t would 10
very Objectionable 10 have the dial d..
yided into t~wcnty.four parts, because
the time ~ day has often to be- read oil
~ great distances. and even now, with
the twenty.four divisions. especially in
dim light. II Is hard 10 dccipher them.
To have c%onccntric circles on a double
twelve division plan Ohc hour hand

would be equally confusing. Neither
watches nor clocks so constructed
could be- read ins|tantancously or with.
out tediou, mental effort, and il would
be-. ON artistic grounds. Objectionable.
To meet these difficulties, il has been
well suggested by Mr., Hopkins. an En-
gllsh scientist, that the hours should he
contained in Onc circle, ~ nuw; but,
Instead Of being numbered cousecu-
lively from ! to II, they might be- ar
ranged IN Roman numerals. ~ at pres

ON the faces u our present style OF
clocks. Thus, the hours O (tho mid
night Of the worlds initial m%eridianl,
2, Z, q, etc, would be- shown in figures,
but the intermediate or odd hours. AS
II, IL, ID, etc, could be- distinguished
by AN arrow head or circular dot. As
regards striking the hours the strokes
might be confined To twelve. as now.
but the hours from thirteen TO twenty
four might be distinguished by being
preceded by two strokes In rapid sue
c%cssion. In lieu Of this plan for strik-
Ing the hours. il has been proposed that
clocks should be- made 10 beat the
strokes In pairs e., two strokes aud
a rest, two strokes and a rest. followed
by one stroke, 10 mean five O'Clock.
The question Of adapting ordinary
timcpieces To the registration Of the
uniycral time adopted by the Prime
Meridian Conference is, however. 80
complicated that. perhaps, the best
means Of settling It would be to call a
conference Of clock and watch makers
10 discuss the subjec, in all L. bearings.
and to give the world the result Of
their deliberations ~. T. Herald.

the detail, that superb costume, magnificent
scenery, and every scenic effect art can add, to
place one in the period, directly en- rapport,
with the great Bernhard as "Theodora."
And this period-the sixth century-is in
keeping with the actress; literature, art,
riches and proAigacy in a congIomemte
mass; and the actress, fierce and willful as
ever, IS the grand tragic center of all. Poor
Bernhardt, talented, generous, yet wild as
a tiger there is but one future in this life
for such as she; tragic ending, Or an I'M
reverenced age. The LADIES' JOURNAL
devoutly congratulate8 American women
that in our country such lives are little
known. But the costumes we must give
our readers through the correspondent of
an Eastern paper. They are beautifully
artistic:

the costumes of Theodore :"
