Boundary stones Should be Placed.

The farmer lives in strong house, his
crops are good aud around his lands he
has built fence, writes surveyor. he
means to cultivate every square foot OF
the ground within his bounds, but sell
dom are his bounds well defined. At
every corner of the property a stone
should be firmly planted in the ground,
but in many places these stones nre miss.
ing, and when the fences are crooked,
which is generally the case, the correct
boundary lines are difficult to locate.
From this inadvcrtence Of property hold
ers considerable dispute arises when Ian |
is sold Now, in many instances the cou-
tents OF a parcel Of land as stated in tue
deed cannot be found within the lines as
laid down, and the real cause OF tae
trouble is the indefinite location OF cor.
ncrs.
When tract OF land lies at great
distance beyond the city limits the owner
does not trouble himself in the least
about the exact location of his property
lines. In fact, he frequently describes
his boundary by n line OF trees or stream
OF water. And then, after u lapse OF
years, the city is extended and the sur
veyor runs through the country with the
lines Of streets and avenues.
Farms are bought ard the plans of sub.
division are arranged. The value Of
ground is greatly enhanced, but on &C.
count of indefinite boundary lines many
landed proprietors lose small areas which
rightfully belong to them. Nor does it
lie in the power Of a surveyor to locate
original lines when he has no data upon
which to base his calculations. - IHtsh-

OLD CLOCKS IN LONDON.
Some Curious Specimens of the Clock
maker's Skill,

Some Curious SpecImens of the Clock
makers Skill.
Several very Interesting old clocks
were shown in the loan section Of the
Home Industries exhibition, recently
held in London, England. They are
worthy Of more than a passing notice,
and view Of them would well repay
all who feel an interest in theological
mechanism. The following brief notice
of their chief peculiarities Of construc.
ton may not be unacceptable to the
reader.
The first which is worthy of notice ID
one OF two fine old clocks belonging to
James Graham, Carnoustie. One OF
them is balance clock and had been
made before the invention of the pen.
dulum. 1t is noteworthy as having the
same kind Of movement as the clock
that was made by Henry de Wick in
1870, had been patterned after IL, and
probably was made not later than 1900,
about which time the balance spring
was invented. This clock had balance
with shifting weights for regulating,
but no balance spring.
The other clock exhibited by Mr..
Graham had been made after the inven-
ton ofthe pendulum in l641, and before
the invention of the anchor escapement
in $780, II is said to have belonged to
one of the Earls of Aboyne, an ances-
tor of the Marquis of Huntly.
In external appearance the two clocks
are very much alike, being all brass on
the outside, turned, carved and en-
graved, having each fine toned bell
suspended by diagonal arches OF brass
and forming dome on the top. Each
clock has but one hand, pointing 10
hours and quarters, minutes apparently
being Of less consequence in the early
days Of clock making than now. The
eseapements of the two clocks are diff
fereht and mark very distinctly the diff
ferent inventions and improvements In
Theological machinery at that early
time. A clock exhibited by Mr.. Yea.
man. Meigle, hung beside the two men
toned, was probably made before the
anchor escapement, as 1t has verge
movement and short pendulum.
There is also very curious clock ex'
hibited in the loan section by Sir Regi.
nald 0gilvy. 1t is of Japanese make
and has balance with shifting weights
for regulating, as on Henry de Wick's
clock, but possesses great improve
ment on his clock in having balance
spring-a balance spring being to the
balance escapement what gravity is Ia
the pendulum.
The method OF showing the time on
this clock is also very curious, being ac-
complished by the falling weight which
drives the clock. A pointer tixed TO the
weight and moving in a slot In the front
of the clock case points in turn 70 brass
japanese letters or figures on the case,
thus indicating the hours. In all prob
ability this clock was made some time
between 1900 and 16S0.-Jewelers'

MARRIAGE OF FIRST COUSINS.
It's Damaging Effects Upon the Human
800 Race. f UH

Its Damaging Effects Upon the Human
n Race. Nii
DIR. Kate Lindsay, of the Battle Creek
sanitarium, was recently asked what, II
any, objections there were TO the mar.
rage OF first cousins. She replied that
the objections lay in the fact Of con-
sanguinity, that persons who are closely
allied by blood usually have certain
hereditary tendencies. Every family
shows particular moral, mental and
physical traits. They are alike not
only in complexion and temperament,
but also in their predisposi tion TO GER
tain hereditary diseases, and when two
people Of the same blood are. united In
marriage there Is likelihood that these
traits will be transmitted and intensi.
fed in the offspring. Another fact not
so generally recognized is that the law
which forbids the marriage of close
blood relations is just as binding upon
those who are not relatives but who re.
semble each other strongly, because the
hereditary influences will be just about
as deteriorating as II the same blood
ran In their veins. People OF a nervous
temperament and high types Of blondes
should not marry whether they are re.
lated or not There have cases come 10
my attention In which the marriage Of
cousins under peculiar circumstances
did not result disadvantageously TO off
spring. For instance, | knew two

and married fair-haired, lightcom-
plexioned German girl. The other went
TO Spain and married Spanish bru-
nette. The children Of these two mar
riages were totally unlike in tempera-
ment, disposition and physical traits,
and two OF the cousins met after they
were grown, married and had family
