SWISS WATCH SCHOOLS.
The Progress of the Student Through Che
Great Manufactures.

Tho school the writer visited Is tho cx-
tensiye one at Geneva. Being provided
with the requisite permission and escorted
by an alumnus of the institution, he was
shown every courtesy and afforded every
opportunity to observe.
One is first nshcred into the beginner
room. 10 ent er a hoy must be at least IA.
He will first bo introduced to a wood turn
ing lathe and set at turning out tool han
dies. He viii, be kept at this from eight
DAYS to seven weeks, according to apti-
tude. Then ho will be advanced to the
work of filing and shaping screwdrivers
and similar tools. These and all other
tools which he may afterward make Will
be his own. Being in course of time to
some extent pre- 7ided with tools, ne Will
undertake making II large wooden pat
tern of a watch frame perhaps as large as
a dining plato. after he has learned just
how the frame IS to be shaped he Is given
a ready cut one of brass OF the ordinary
size and he begins drilling the holes for
the wheels ahd screws. All along the
master stands over him and instructs Dlin.
The circular pieces. of brass which arc put
into his hands here he will go on with, ana
when the wasch is completed that, too,
will be his owl.
He is then tlught to mako other limo
tools and to tiDish the frame ready to re-
ceivo the wheels.
Then he VII leave the first room ana
pass up into ono where he is taught to tit
the stem winding parts and to do other
flno cutting and fling by hand, to make
watches that will strike tho hour, MIN
ute. ETC., for which class OF work the
Swiss are famous. One can readily con-
ceive how exceedingly minute and exact
such workmanship must be, particularly
ON the minute snail-that is, the guide
which permits and arrests the striking,
so that in addition to the hour and the
quarter the very minute shall be sounded

BREATHING DEEPLY.
An Exercise Easy to Perform and OF Un-
doubted Value.

With the praliminary hut important
matter of clothing satisfactorily settled we
are ready to breathe. If very weak, lie
down On an easy conch--lic fiat on the
back. See that the air is fresh, but avoid
a draft. Draw in a long, slow breath,
letting the diaphragm and abdomen ex-
pand as fully as possible. Then by con-
traction of the diaphragm, a quick draw
ing in of tho muscles of the stomach,
force the air into the upper part of tho
lungs and hold it there a moment or two
before allowing it to pass up into tho
throat. This is done by contraction OF
tho vocal cords and is not usually difficult.
But if the cords will not close and the ar
is not readily controlled close the lips and
hold the nose for moment, wnlch VIII
preycnt the air from all leaving the apex
of the lungs, With practice the vocal
cords will come under perfect control
Some have difficulty in establishing the
abdominal brcathing, especially those
who have been in the habit OF breathing
entirely from the throat. But when the
clothing no longer forms an obstruction
this will gradually right itself. Ihe nat
ural mode of breathing asserts Itself mosb
readily when one is lying down; therefore
that position is recommended for the daily
practice, which should be persistent, but
also very gentle. Do not allow yourself
to become really fatigued and be careful
not to make the lungs ache. Ii one deep
breath brings WEAKNESS or dizziness, stop
with the ono breath, but try again when
. fully rested The upper part of the chest
will gradually expand and In time VIII

To Show the white Feather.

The pure bred game cock has only red
and black feathers. A cross bred bird Is
known by the white feather in his tail
The sligh est impurity of strain is said to
destroy the birds pluck; hence cocks that
showed white feather were never trained
for the pit. The common adage, Any
cock will fight on its own dunghiil, Is
frequently qualified by the addition that
ii must be one without white feather TO
fiaht in the pit. Naturally enough, 1t
came about to use the expression 70

City and County.
Mr.. BRADBURY'S BILL
For a Substitute to the Present Ballot Law.

Much interest has been occasioned by
the report that Hon. j. w. Bradbury OF
this city was preparing bill which would
be presented to the incoming Legislature
as substitute for the present ballot law
Even those who believe that it would not
be wise to tinker - the present law
have felt interested to know the exact
nature of the changes proposed by Mr..
Bradbury. This information Mr.. Brad
bury has kindly furnished the Journal
He says:
'Some substitute for our present Aus
traian ballot law that will accomplish
what that law was designed to do, ana
the same time avoid it's defects, is obvl-
ously needed to preserve the system OF
secret ballot which is SO essential TO lalr
elections. 1t should not be given up. &
The purpose of the proposed substitute
is to save the system, not to abandon IL.
The present law has this fundamental
defect, that under i8 provisions the .opVi-
Gus intention of the voter may be defeated
by technical error and whole CITY OF
town may be disfranchiscd by the mistake
delay or intention of any ono OF our more
than 400 city and town clerks
There has been SO much of detail SC
many things required to be done, 1t gives
too many opportunities to change results
in close elections 1t is estimated that IN
our recent State election several thousand
ballots were thrown out for alleged mis-
takes where the voters intention was
clearly apparent.
In one ward in Augusta III bailots vert
rejected, and in the whole city not less
than 130 Such facts show the necessits
of some change or amendment OF the pre-
sent law The proposed substitute, IL Il
believed will meet the necessary require
ments. 1t will follow this explanation:
1t will be seen at a glance that It's uis
tinguishing feature is the provision fol
an ante room connected with and open
ing into the room where the voting Is tt
take place. in which table is to be placed
having separate Compartments coLspicu
ously marked by the party names, lnH
which all the ballots arc to be placed p'
the respective parties before the opening
of the polls, and thus relieving the voter
from the yexatious trouble of procuring
and fling the certificate of nominations
No other ballots arc to be circulated o
voted The doorkceper of the ante.rooii
is,to be provided with official enyelt p : :
and he is to pass one to the voter as y
enters the ante-room, who then alone
with both doors closed, selects his paiio
from those on the table, puts 1t into Tn
envelope, oTens the door into the VII Y
room and votes by depositing the cnseiolii
containing the ballot.
Further details will be seen by examin
ing the l ILL.,. 1t is believed that this SUI
stitute would secure secrecy and indepeh
dence in voting as effectually as the pres
cnt law and be free from its defects
1t would also save to the taxpayers 9

A CARD FROM A. G. BAKER.

Our furniture business at Hawleyville Is now so well known, far and near, that we feel that we may safely, for a time at least, cut down our advertising expenses. An lad" to be of any value, should be changed every week. We are too busy to do it. Besides, we heard man say, the other day that "that furniture man at Hawleyville, who ad- vertises 80 much, must be a fool" Queer what big game one runs onto sometimes more charitable friend remarked to us confi- dentially, in an on hand way, that writing lads" out of business hours Is liable to lead to softening of the brain. Mind you. he did not say we had got 1t; and he looked away over into the next county when ho said 1t but,-well, we are not slow to take a hint, if 1t Is blind one. It would be perfectly aw- ful If we should really get 1t (this softening disease. we mean and have it get real deep ly seated before we knew 1t, or before we had time to vaccinate. So we are going to stop right of short, give up our advertising col umns for awhile, pocket the money that would otherwise go Into the coffers of these "grasring newspaper monopolies," eat brain ness, 1. 0. selling furniture at Hawleyyile Now for Heavens sake don't tell everybody what you think. Just remember how sensi- tive we are to adverse criticism. and say that We are simply boycotting and playing Debs with the newspapers for awhile. Don't tell them that we are tired or waiting for any thing 10 harden. Be compassionate be just be considerate. be charitable, be liberal mind ed one with another and last of all be sure and come to Hawleyville before you buy your furniture. Please commit this last sentence to memory and then pin 1t in your hat.
