GRANDFATHER'S WATCH.

Grandfather's watch is battered and old,
Innocent quite Of jewel or gold,
Poor and common, and worn and cracked,
Much like grandfather's self In fact.
Yet its wheezy voice has "A cheerful sound,
And the child ~ sho listens in wonder
bound
TO its mystic tales Of departed time
Is smiling As though at pleasant rhyme.
What are the tales the old watch tellsH
Of seventy years il counts the knells,
Years whose every setting sun
Was marked 10y labor faithfully done.
With primitive form and clumsy skill,
And clumsier help when the works went
Ill.
Yet srry ing their time as best they can
This is the story Of the watch and mani
Many fall has the old watch hushed,
Many a blow has the old man crushed,
Meddled with, tinkercd and sOTely tried,
At last rejected and thrown aside
For modern rivals. all science and gold,
Useless and crippled, despiSed and old,
Under u cloud and under ban
This is the story of IA watch and man.
But there's "A reverse to the picture sad
Human hearts they can still make glad.
The watch in its dcnted silver case
Can bring "A smile to the fair child's face
The mans all battered and silvery, too,
With a moral can cheer both me and you,
Mark our time as well as we cam
This is the lesson of watch and man.

The result of curious but very impOr-
tant test as to the accuracy with which
chemists, druggists and others make up
prescriptions committed to their care has
recently been presented to one of the Lon
don vestries. Fifty prescriptions were
sent out to ordinary druggists, to cooper
ative stores to doctors shops" and TO
certain traders styling themselves drug
companies. The mixtures made We're aft
erward analyzed, L. Ind out how nearly
they agreed with the prescription they
represented; but in order to give a liberal
margin for error il was resolved not to put
black mark against any one if the chief
constituent were within 10 per cent. of the
right amount.
Notwithstanding this margin, no
fewer than seventeen out of
the fifty mixtures We're incorrectly dis
pensed. In one case the principal drug
was less by s. per cent. than the
amount ordered, while in another 1t was
81 per cent. in excess The chem
lists and druggists came out best In this
strange competition, as only d per cant
of their prescriptions had to be called in
question. Next came the co-ope rative
stores with ~ per cent. of error; then
the doctors shops" with 80 per cent.
and lastly the drug companies, who are
credited, or rather discredited, with 10
per cent. of errurs.-Chambers' Journal

rang the bell in the black cavern Of a
dOorway-a bell with a deep, seriOust one,
