Point. on Preno.lnr.

An old fashioned book of etiquette contains a chapter on courtship that Is exceedingly naive Any young man who might be contemplating a proposal of marriage was urged strongly to SC lect with care and due torethought the proper time and place for such pro. posal. For instance, he should never propose to a young woman while out boating, for if she should happen 10 re- fuse him it would be difficult to reach shore immediately, and the situation would obviously be awkward.
 On the other hand, if she should ac- cept him the situation would be equally undesirable, since too close a proximity and certain attitudes incident to the circumstances Rre known to threaten the safety of Q boat Also, said young man was advised never to propose to a young woman just before dinner Hay ing been without eating for some hours, she would, doubtless, be in less ami. able frame of mind than usual and might, under these conditions, refuse an offer which at another tiue would seem desirable San Francisco Argo ropt

 The first man in the Unitcd Sestes to make clocks was Eli Terry, and Terry vile, Conn, will be historically record cd us the placo whore that famous man. ufscuring was begun. No clocks are made thero now, but the little shop in which Eli Terry labored many years and the house which he built close by it are vet standing, For eight years, says a correspondent of the New York Times, Terry worked alone. He made about ten clocks a year, end these he took on horseback to the new region beyond the Hudson River, where he sold them for S25 each, His pay was often in Salt Pork or produce.
 In 1900 two young men were sm- ployed in the Terry factory. The busi- ness was then carried on so extensively that sometimes two dozen clocks were begun at one time Seth Thomas was ono of the young men who worked for Terry and learned the trade He had by no means the mechanical ability or ingenuity of his employer, but he was much shrewder business man, and he eventually became wealthy by the use of Terry's inventions. Thomas, in company with Silas Hoadley, fellow workman, bought the clock business of Terry in lSIO, and later removed it to Plymouth Hollow, now Thomaston.
 The metal clock was invented by Joseph Ives in ISIS, but as the iron plates and brass wheels were so large as to require cases five feet long, few of the Ives patten were made, and soy- eral years passed before improvements placed the metal clock prominently on the market. The use of machinery for cutiing out the metal movement caused great changes in the industry, and soon single firm was able to make 200, 900 clocks year. Wooden timepieces were thereafter classsd with wooden nutmegs, and the manufacture of them entirely ceased.
 The centennial of American clock making is to be celebrated in Terry vile iu 1893, and the memory of Eli Terry, who in the beginning of that industry founded the town which bears his name, IS to be hunorod
