Wonderful Watches.

a InaSS3 "a. Matchmaker of Dresden
exhibited a watch made entirely of
paper. The paper was chemically
prepared, and the maker claimed
that it would be as s~erviceable as if
made of the material ordinarily used.
a An ingenious prisoner at Kariaus,
Bohemia, recently constructed a
watch three inches in diameter, with
no other tools or material except two
needles, a spool of thread, a newspa-
per, and some rye straw. The
wheels, postssandcogssa are all made
of the rye straws which, it is well
known, is quite coarse and tough. 1t
runs six hours without winding, and
keeps good time. 1t is now in the
possession of the Project of Kariaus,
who considers it the greatest marvel
of the nineteenth century.
The most ingenious, perfect, and
complex watch ever manufactured
was sent out fromthe works of Patek,
Philippe & Co., of Geneva, Switzer~
land, in July, 1887, and is now in
possession of Baron Nicholas. 1t is
what is known as full>sized "hunt-
err" On n side there is a dial OF
the regulation kind, exhibiting the
hour, minute, and second hands; also
an independent chronograph hand,
which marks the fifth of. seconds.
The same dial has repeating mechan-
ism, which strikes the hours, quar-
tiers and minutes. The opposite diaI
has hands pointing to months, weeks
and days. Another large central
hand on this dial, if set at the begin.
ming of each year, correctly points tC
all moon phases, and also acts as a per
petual calendar. 1t is so constructed
as to admit of its keeping two differ
ent times, say standard time on ont
side and sun time on the other.

Industrial Revolution in Europe.

The Electrical Engineer makes the
following extraordinary statement:
"Nothing in the future appears more
probably than that within the life
time of persons now living the in
dustrial supremacy of Great Britain
will pass away with the exhaus-
ton of her coal fields. Swift
erland, italy, and the Scandi-
nayian peninsular are distined to be-
come the great manufacturing dis
tricts of Europe. This extraordinary
industrial revolution will be brought
about by the transmission and distri-
button, by electrical means, of the
inexhanstible and permanent water
power which is now running to
waste in those countries. Indeed,
this power is already beginning to be
successfully utilized by the skill OF
the electrical engineer. More than
a year ago we visited in Switzerland
a wooden mandatory of $4,000 spin
dies, with the usual complement OF
auxiliary machinery, which was OPP
Grated wholly by electric power
conveyed from a distant stream,
deriving its never-failing supply OF
water from the melting of Alpine
SHOWS. In the new era, which is
advancing with such rapid strides,
the Swiss republic may rot impr0ba.

nation of Europe"

The Lascassas Silver Mines.
Sauuon Courier.

Cauuon Courier.
The silver mines at Lascassas, in
which the Woodbury. Mining Com
pany is deeply interested, is being
worked with considerable success
Capt, Mays. An experienced miner,
is .superintending the wotk and went
to Nashville this week to purchase a
larger engine in order to carry on the
work more rapidly. The amount
contained in a ton of ore ut the pres
ent depth is SIS silver, 81 gold, and
about 600 pounds Of lead. Capt.
Mays finds during the progress Of the
work many evidences OF this mine
having been worked by people
supposed to have lived here long
before this country was discovered
by Columbus. Rock hammers, the
only tool usedb by the people it seems,
have been found many feet below the
surface of the earth. Evidence OF
fires r plainly visible deep down in
the earth, causing the superstition
that these people broke the rocks by
heating them and then pouring cold
water on them. From present indi-
cations there is little doubt that the
movement set on foot by the Wood
bury Mining Company to develop
the Lascassas mines will prove emf
nently successful, and in the event
that il does it will be the cause o.
the opening of several mines in
Cannon county where the outlook is
almost as promising IS at Lascassas

To Sew on Buttons.

"When / get a brightidea l always
want to pass it along" said a lady
who sat watching a young girl sew
ing. "Do your buttons ever come
of, Lena?"
"Eyer! They're always doing it.
They are ironed off, washed off, and
pulled off until 1 despair. l seem to
shed buttons at every step"
Make s Of these two hints when
you are sewing them on, then, and
see ifthey make any difference:
"When you begin, before you lay
the button on the cloth. put, the
thread through so that the knot will
be on the right side. That leaves it
under the button, and prevents it
from being worn or ironed away, and
thus beginning the loosening process.
Then, before you begin sewing, lay a
large pin across the button so that all
your threads will so over the pin.
After you have finished filling the
holes with thread, draw out the pin
and wind your thread round and
round beneath the button. That
makes a compact stem to sustain the
possible pulling and wearsof the but
ION hole. 1t is no. exaggeratiOn to
-STynthat-non of my buttons eOme7otf #,
and Pm sure yours won't if YOU use
my method OF sewing"

Pumping Machines.

III IT N
TOO many pumping machines at
Cousin Clara's," said a lady; II can
not allow my little boy to go there
alone; they quiz. him like lawyers
about our affairs. OF course we have
ourlittle secrets-that we liketo keep
in the family but when Henry
knows, they exact from him merely
out of their curiosity"
"Oh, l hate to call there" said a
young lady, abiding to a family in
the town where she lived. "Mr.
- and Madge are so inquisitive.
They'llask me where I got my dress,
how much l paid a yard, how many
yards,I had, who made it and a dozen
ether questions about that, and any
thing else new, that l chance to have
on, NAnd when they've exhausted
my clothing they'll take up mothers
in the same fashion. We only call
there once a year. They haven't
half as many friends as they would
have if they weren't so inquisitive.
People don't like pumping ma.
Chimes" w
1t is true that inquisitive people
rarely have many friends. Idle curl.
osity, a desire to pry into the affairs
of others, begets rudeness, which re-
pels even a child.
"Aunt Caroline presses me awfully
with questions" declared a little
nine year old girl the other day.
"How so?" inquired a friend.
sob, she asks if papa and MANN,
get cross, and if Aunt Francis is go
ing to be married, and everything
like that; and ii makes me feel
nervous like. / don't like to g
there"
Aunt Caroline had thought to qni!
her with impunity. But the littl'
,girl was quick to discern a pumping
machine.
We might say that the pumping
machine is a gossip in training. Dom
pry into other peoples personal al
fairs. Don't "wonder" about then
don't talk about them. Impertinen
curiosity is almost the surest mark {
a vulgar mind.

As cure for every class Of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been able
to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which is very pleasant and harmless in
all its effects upon the youngest child or the oldest and most delicate indiyid-
ual Nnetenths of all the ailments to which the human family is hen, are
dependent on nervous exhaustion and impaired digestion. Whenthe san
insufficient supply of nerve food in the blood, q general state Of debility of
the brain, spinal marrow and nerves Is the result. Starved nerves, like
starved muscles, become strong when the right kind Of food is supplied, and
a thousand weaknesses and ailments disappear as the nerves recover. As the
nervous system must supply all the power by which the vital forces Of the
BODY are carried on, it is the first to suffer for want of perfect nutrition.
Ordinary food does not contain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nuhinent
necessary to repair the wear our present mode of living and labor imposes
supplied. This recent production of the South American Continent has been
is formed. This accounts for its magic power to cure all forms of nervous
arrangements. .I -
