rise. Avoid putting watch on marble slab, or near anything excessively cold. The sudden transition from heat to cold contract. ing the metal may sometimes cause the main. spring to break. Indeed, the cold coagulates the oil, ,and the wheel works and pivots work ing less freely affect the regularity of the time keeper.
 When we lay our watch aside we ought to slope it on g watch case so as to keep it near ly in the same position it has in the pocket. In laying aside your watch be sure that it rests on its case. By suspsnding 1t free the action of the balance may cause oscillation, which may considerably interfere with it's going.
 If you would keep your watch clean you must be quite sure that the case fits firmly, and never put it in any pocket but one made of leather. Those pockets which are lined with cloth, cotton or calico, give, by the con- stant friction, certain quantity of fluff, which enters most watches, even those the cases of which shut firmly.
 If the watch is not "keyless" one the key should be small, in order that we may feel the resistance of the stop work; then we can stop in time without forcing any thing. It is also necessary that the square of the key should correspond with that of the watch. If it be too large it may in a short time cause the wind-up square to suffer from undue wear and tear, the rectifying of which is rather expensive. The hands of an ordinary watch can be turned backward without much risk. It is, however, always better to move the hands forward to adjust your watch to correct time.
 A skiliful watchmaker one day thus reas- oned with customer who complained of his watch "You complained" said he, "that your watch gained minute month. Well, then, you will congratulate yourself when you have heard me. You are aware that in your watch the balance, which is the regulator, makes five oscilla- tions every second, which is 432, ,000 day; so that your watch, exposed to all the vicis- situdes which heat and cold occasion 1t, the varying weight of the air, and the shaking to which it is subjected, has not varied more than minute month or two seconds day.
 It has only acquired with each vibration of the balance a variation of the 216. .000th part of second. Judge, then, what must
 be the extreme perfection of the mechanism of this watch"
 A watch cannot go for an indefinite period without being repaired or cleaned. At the expiration of certain time the oil dries up, dust accumulates, and wear and tear are inc evitable results to the whole machinery, the functions become irregular, frequently ceas- ing to act altogether. A person possessing a watch of good quality, and desirous of pre- serving 1t as such, should have 1t cleaned every two years at least. But care should be taken to eontde the cleaning or repairing to careful hands; an incapable workman may do great injury to watch even of the sim- plest construction.

Cardinal Gibbons as Beer Park.

lSohiSSPohOohCe cI iAo IALAOoAPnis EOoo.t
 Ever in walking through the beautiful mountain paths have met man of distin- guished bearing. The form, in it's tightly
 buttoned coat of black, told that he was a
 priest. The Cardinal oravat said that he
 was not only priest, but at the head of his
 kind in this country. The solitary walker
 was the famous Cardinal Gibbons. He nev-
 CT walked with head down, unseeing the
 beauties around him, but always with his
 fine brow barred to the light, his kindly eyes noting a distant tree branch swayed by 8 birds light weight, or the little white flower,
 so like the Alpine "eidelweiss," that tried to hide itself under the moss-covered rock The prelate left here never knowing how he subverted and overturned the society's con- ventional rule. "I would ask, madam, !" said he, ccurteously, to a lady whose dinner was among the first of a series given in his hon. or, "that the hour might be changed from seven to two, as I must give the evening to my walk and my devotions." It is unne- cessary to state that all the dinners after that were given at two, aad the ladies spent ! many an anxious hour wondering what kind of gown would be the proper thing for a two o'clock dinner.

4 Golden Wedding.

The pleasant and capacIouS residence
of Ephraim Jennings and wife, of Wav-
erly, was well filled on Thursday, Octo-
Der 10th, with relatives and friends
who had assembled to renew congratu-
lations aud celebrate with this old
time bride and groom their golden
wedding. The large company and, in
deed, the greater part of the festival,
was "A surprise to the couple in whose
behalf il was planned. A few friends
had been invited by the guide wife, "
but when fifty or sixty came flocking in
il more than filled the programme she
had prepared, but her hands were full
of greeting for one and all, and the en-
ergetic manner with which her hus-
band provided for teams etc. contra
dicted the assertion that he was mar
ried fifty years ago.
just before dinner Henry Shaefer,
the photographer, appeared on the
scene as per agreement, To make pic
ture of the occasion, To be framed ''for
memory's sake"
This being accomplished, dinner was
served, which, by the way, was a gen
uine wedding feast, including the
brides cake" Then Elder Darling
made little speech, and in behalf of
IA part of the company presented each
of the pair with "A pair of gold bowed
spectacles, Mr.. Jennings protesting
that he had no use for Them" as his
eyes served him well. Mrs. Dollie
Conner now came forward and in her
own pleasant way read poem about
golden weddings, which poem, nicely
arranged and printed, was the gift of
MIR and Mrs MOsipr of Rochester, N
Y. Maud Armstrong recited VIII
Cartoons poem of Fifty Years Ago"
after which Mrs. Anna Barton read a
poem prepared for the occasion, i'm
which it was averred that not one of
the guests present had even been inUa-
ed to the original wedding, but DR..
Hathaway cOntradicted the statement
by declaring that he twas invited but
did not attend" Mr.. and Mrs. Jen-
nings have but one son and three
grandchildren, all of whom were pres
ent except Ralph, who is in Hillsdale
college.

The withdrawal of Gen. James X.
Chalmers and Judge Frazer, republican
candidates respectively for governor
and encouragement in Mississippi, is
evidence that the "shot gun" policy of
the democratic party, in that state at
least, has not yet been Abandoned. The
New South" which editor Grady so
graphically pictured, within whose
limits freedom of speech and political
action were to be assured, has failed to
materialize, and the present outlook
certainly would not justify any one in
anticipating its early realization. 1t is,
however, devoutly to be hoped that
some means may soon be discovered to
remedy this unfortunate condition of
affairs.

SENATOR SHERMAN, IN Il speech re-
Gently made, said, among other things:
mo one can deny that the Republican
party, by its policy of protection To
American industries, has enormously
increased and diversified all forms of
production, and protected our labor
from sharp and hard competition with
the poorly paid labor of other coun-
tries. No one can deny but that the
Republican party, with wise and gen
erous liberality, provided liberal pen
sions to those who had suffered the
casualties of the war, with reasonable
provision for the widows and orphans
of Union soldiers Nor can it be claim
eel that the Republican party has gain
ed or maintained its power by fraud at
elections, or by any other means than
by open and frank appeals to the
intelligence and patriotism of the AM
erican people" The above statements
come from one who has the authority
TO speak, from "a man thoroughly ac-
quainted with the political history of
all parties, and who has been for many
years prominently identified with all
the important measures and matters, i'm
which our nation has been interested,
and as such are entitled to and ought
To receive careful consideration. We
believe that party of which such as
sertions can be truthfully made is
good and safe one to tie to.

THE Amer,cdn Tribune very appro-
priately says: IN early thirty years ago
the waves of civil war swept over our
loved country. More than two mil
lions of men voluntarily left their homes
in its defense. The question of thirteen
dollars month was not the considera-
ton, that was merely subsistence for
the time being. No specific rewards
were set forth, but promises were made
in the presence of assembled thou
sands, that in case of disaster they and
their families should be cared for. The
decay of vitality, the loss of limb or the
price of soldiers grave was not set
down i'm cold values; it was summed up
in one word of command and promise,
go, and you will be remembered.
Four hundred thousand lives were lost
and enough more have since died from
its direct effects to make a million.
Three hundred thousand were made
cripples and a million were physically
wrecked for life. Since the war the
government has passed many generous
pension laws, yet not as liberal, i'm our
opinion, as our advanced enlighten-
ment and republican principles should
demand. Even these laws have not
yielded the results contemplated by
their provisions. Hundreds of thou
sands of claims are still pending, many
Of which have been on file from ten to
twenty years" We believe that the
sentiment of the people is favorable to
the prompt and equitable adjustment
Of these claims.
