THE HINDoo IDEA OF WOMEN.

seem to have thought us out in a decided
way. They have a sort of catechism that
runs this way:
"WhRt is cruelF'
''The heart of viper"
"What is more cruel than thatP
1.-THE heart of woman"
"What is the cruelest Of allF
the heart Of a soulless, penniless
widow"
"What lie the chief gate to hellr

"W hat are letters to menTn

"What is that which cannot be trusted 81
"a woman"

And after this catechism, the readers are
warned; woman Is a great whirlpool of
suspicion. dwelling place Of vices, full Of
deceits, hindrance in the way of heaven,

be looked at. There is nothing half wav
about the HindOo; be apparently gives you

A Speaking Watch.

It is said matchmaker of Geneva,
Switzerland, named Casimir Livau has
Just completed watch which, instead of
striking the hours and quarters, an
nounces them by speaking like the phon-
ograph. The mechanism of the watch
is based on photographic conditions, the
bottom of the case containing phono-
graphic sensitive plate which has re-
ceived the impression of the human voice
before being inserted in the watch.
The disk has forty eight concentric
grooves, of which twelve repeat the
hours, twelve those of the hours and
quarters, aud twelve more those of the
hours and second and third quarters. If
the hand on the dial shows the time to
be IL Is o'clock, one of the fine needle
points of the mechanism crosses the
corresponding groove and the disk,
which turns simultaneously, calls out the
time, just as the photographic cylinder.
The lower lid of the case is provided
with tiny mouthpiece, and when the
watch is held to the ear the sound is all
the more plain.-Jewelers' Circular.

A Valuable Violin.

1t is seldom that amateur viohnists
have such valuable instrument as G.
w. Hope. His violin was made in 1715,
by the famous Wenger, pupil of
Nicholas Amati, and for richness of tone
it almost equals a genuine Cremona.
The following distinguished profession
ais have played on Mr.. Hopes violin and
praised it. Ole Bull, Ovide Musin, Re-
menyi, Herr Johannes Wolff and Mande
Powell. The bow the amateur uses was
made by Lupot, of Paris. New York

resolutions;

stables in Villas county are prohibited
from travelling or SCI wing warrants,
writs or other legal documents out

that,

luton by the same author prohibits
