A Wonderful Watch.

w. L. II. Huntington, of Cleveland,
is the owner of a unique watch. The
case is of pure gold, four.ounce, while
the works are of the most delicate
and intricate character, and number
400 pieces. On the larger dial appear
four smaller dials. The one at the
top shows by diagram of the sky,
the changes Of the moon, the Grma-
ment being of lapis lazuli, studded
with golden stars. The next dial to
the right shows the leap year, the
tiny hand moving around the circle
once in four years, and an auxiliary
hand shows each month. On the
dial at the bottom is a hand marking
the quarter seconds and one showing
the day of the month. At the left
on the fourth miniature dial, is hand
pointing out the day of the week, and
another the tide as it GIBBS and flows.
Around the large dial, besides the
usual hour and minute hand, moves
second hand and an extra horse
timer so arranged that the distance
between two horses at the finish is ac-
curately noted in quarter seconds.
BY pressing button the past-hour
is struck on a deep-toned bell, one of
a fairy chime; the quarters are a
more silvery note, and a rapidly tink-
ling companion gives the minutes.
The watch is a stem winder and one
spring furnishes the motive power

HISTORY OF ENGRAVING.
An Art Known to the Early Egyptian
and the Ancient Hebrews.

An Art Known to the Early Egyptians
and the Ancient Hebrews.
Engraving was known to the early
Egyptians, who used wooden stamps
marked with hieroglyphics for the pur-
pose of marking their BRICKS. The art Is
first mentioned p. @. 149l, by Moses
Exodus xviii, % who was COM
manded to take two onyx stones and
grave on them the names of the Chill
dren of Israel. The revival of the art
dates from the fifteenth century, when
the mezzotint mode of engraving was
invented by Colonel Won Seigen. En-
craving In colors was invented by one
J. c. LIE Blond about 1913, in imitation
of pencil work by GILES DIES Marteau in
1855, and aquatint by lie Prince about
1859. Engraving on copper is said to
have been practiced in Germany as
early as 1850. Some early engravings
by Albert Durer, dated 1918 and 1916,
are thought TO have been made from
plates of steel. This metal, however,
was seldom employed by the first en-
gravers, owing to its hardness and the
consequent difficulties to be overcome
in working it, Only one specimen OF
authentic steel engraving, that by J. J..
Smith, was known to exist prior to 1918,
when Mr. C. Warren exhibited speci.
men executed on soft steel before the
Society of Arts. The Smith steel en-.
craving, spoken of above, was made in
1905. The earliest wood-cut in exist.
ence represents Saint Christopher With
the infant Saviour, and is dated 1893,
Wooden blocks were engraved and used
as notaries' seals and for making play.
ing-cards in France as early as 144o.
Many "block-books" of about 1880 grace
the shelves of various museums In
Europe, where they are valued almost
as highly as the Guttenburg and MAJ
arine Bibles. 1t almost makes one
dizzy to think of the rapid advancement
of the art since the opening Of the pres
ent century, or even since the beginning
of the decade just ended.-St, Louis Re-
piblic

Length, Grcat'St span

An exc hange brother dis
cribes a young lady visiting his
town as a craven haired, dove
eyed, swan throated, angel
formed" and pigeon tood, we
suppose he might have added.
1t is wonder that she does not
take wings and fly away from
a place with such an editor.
1t is true, and sorry are we to
say it, that our people will not
take advantage of enterprises
which are within their reach,
Dnt when an enterprisjng and
far-seeing Yankee observes the
benefits that will accure to him
and starts the ball in motion
the Southern people cuss them
out. Today there are in The
South large Industries which
the enterprising Yankee has
put in operation and from
which he is reaping
the golden harvest from. Up
rountymen, and start this, the
crying need of the hour. Give
the idle boys and girls employ
ment. The capital invested in
such enterprises will pay hand
some dividends if properly
managed.

A GROWING SENTIMENT.

There is a strong growing SEN
timent in Virginia to let the ne
groes educate their own child
rem. A Richmond dispatch in
n. Y. Times says:
"The persistent and blind way
to which the negroes of this
State have followed the Repub-
lican leaders in all political con-
tests has suggested the proprie-
ty Of separating the school fund
OF the State, giving the colored
people only what they c,ntri-
buie in taxes"
There IS sentiment like that
in North Carolina and it is on
the increase.-Wil. Messenger.
