Early Clocks.

Clocks were introduced in 1920 from
Great Britain and soon came into COM
mon use. Before that time hourglasses
were generally employed. and in the
churches an hourglass on the pulpit was
deemed almost as indispensable an ar
tlcle of furniture as the Bible. The SER
mon was measured by glasses and 1t
was frequently known that the preacher
turned the glass three times in the
course of his sermon.

be an extraordinary demand for ship ment abroad.
Birmingham state herald., 1896-01-05

the Southern States Passenger associa- ton still waxes warm and we notice that E. E. Smith, chairman of the railroad committee Georgia division, Travellers Protective Association of America, who is also chairman of the business mems committee and representative of the Commercial Mems congress in this en- terprise, has published a map, labeled at the top, 'Is Georgia Discriminated Aga1nst?" The map portrays all the ter ritory and roads covered by the new Buckeye Mileage Ticket" which is sold at cents per mile fiat for a 1000-mile ticket, good over ninety-nine transporta- tion lines. Chairman Smith has mailed a copy of this map to each member of the Georgia legislature and to the prin- cfpal business houses in the wholesale line throughout Georgia and he asks at the bottom of the map a very pertinent question as follows: "One single 1000- mile book at cents per mile. good for one year from date of sale, carries pas senger on any one of the ninety-nine transportation lines. Yet citizens of Georgia and the south are refused mileage ticket good on even one line of railroad. Do you approve this discrim- nation. Respectfully submitted
 "E. E. SMITH, Chairman"
 It is thought that the national board of directors will probably decide to hold the convention at Terre Haute, Ind, along toward the middle or last of May, as there seems to be a disposition or feel ing on the part of some of the divisions that 1t should be held earlier than usual.

How to Protect Our Gold.
New York Daily Financial News.

New 4Ork Dally f1nancfal NeWS.
 The Evening Press of Grand Rapids, Mich.. says: "A somewhat remarkable comment, considering the attitude of Wall street upon the financial question, is found in a recent issue of the Financial News, one of the leading Wall street pub- lications. Speaking the necessity of the immediate issue of bonds in order to maintain the parity of our several sorts of money it says:
 Wall street men who have their con- tracts made largely in gold will likely in- sist upon this policy, but we believe that if the government would have the back bone to pay out coin silver for It's ob- legations and let gold go to a premium, this premium would be small, and simply result in proving to be an additional tariff on goods imported, and indirectly bring us so much additional revenue on that which we mine and ship abroad. The government has an ample silver seigniorage which 1t could coin without cost, and which would supply it with all the money it would need for any ordi- nary deficiency that might arise in the next two years"
 Attention has often been called to the fact that this government is the only one on earth which not only does not put any obstacle in the way of the de- pletion of it's gold reserve, but gives everyone every possible facility for Ob- taining the precious metal. France oc- cupies the precise position with reference to silver that this nation does. Free and unlimited coinage has been sus- pended, but there is large quantity of full legal tender silver in circulation. The Bank of France refuses to pay out gold on demand. but insists upon paying half silver, yet gold is not at a premium and no fear exists that the creditors of France will be defrauded. The United States treasury could adopt similar rule to great advantage. By so doing 1t would not credit any money, whereas, by It's present course. 1t does discredit silver. Even if it did result in a small premium upon gold, 1t would not be a serious matter. It would not have such a result, however, unless there should

The Drummer.

In these days of enterprise, push and energy the drummer has come to be rec ognized as a commercial necessity, and the sensible merchant greets him as friend and an essential factor in his bus mess relations with wholesalers Those who used to look upon the commercial traveller as they did a book agent or a lightningrod peddler, and agree that they were nothing but expensive solic- itors sent out to worm money from them, a service for which the retailers had to pay, have almost entirely disappeared, and he is considered a mutual friend who is not only a convenience, but a money-saver to the buyers, for he can see six or eight or dozen merchants and sell them bills with as little expense as either of these buyers would be at were they compelled to visit the markets in person, to say nothing of the loss of time which would be occasioned by such visits, and thus the expense of buying goods Is reduced to one-sixth or one-twelfth. Then, travelling over the same territory from month to month he becomes familiar with the in- terests of his customers, and with the honor and candor which characterizes the profession. he may usually be relied upon as an advisor and a counselor in the selection and purchase of a bill of goods. Black sheep have crept into the fold, it is true. as in every other profess sion, and the good have had to s;ifrer be- cause of their practices. but the masher has had to go, other objectionable char acters have been relegated to the rear and the wedding out process has con- tinue@, until the great army of knights of the grip is now composed of up-to-date business men, who seek only legitimate methods, and no more gentlemanly courteous or useful men can be found in any of the avocations of life.-Texas Sandwich.

A ADrummer's Prayer.

Our landlord, who Is at the head of affairs We praise aloud thy name; Let my meals come, Let them be well done, But not as 1t was in the neighboring town. Give us this day some better hash, And forgive us, as we do the independent and kicking-merchant Lead US not into unclean and buggy beds, But deliver us from dirty towels roach legs and wings in our biscuits, And thine shall be our house and g 0 day your reward forever and ever.

The Drummer,

or all the professions eer travelled by man, From the raising of Cain, when Adam be-
 gan, For through checkers and changes and
 anxiety and strife There's nothing compared with travelling
 mans life. The modern drummer is readily known, For he has peculiar style of his own In presenting his card and dropping his
 grip Unless perchance he is on his first trip. The new drummer is very important and
 wise, And generally wears glasses for his cus- He is out on trial for one trip term, But generally considers himself head of The new drummer learns as he grows old That he does,not sell all the goods that are
 sold, And as soon as he's aware of this state of
 affairs He increases his sales by decreasing his
 airs. There are many inconvenience that come Of the travelling man of the modern day. And many insulting thrusts are made But he chol<es them all down for the sake of
 his trade. If all the drummers should die in one night Twould leave the country in terrible
 plight; The passenger trains would rust on the rail And the hotel business be dead as nail. No man would hear the sound of a gong, And livery rigs would sell for song; The hinges of the theater doors would rust The street cars and omnibuses crumble to
 dust. The blind beggar would get no more dimes
 in his hat. The saloon business-wel. hardly know as
 to that; The practice of flirting would suddenly be And ali other legitimate business be
 stopped. Then gather their grips-all sizes and
 styles, And empty them out in a promscuous pile: What wonderful mixture the eye would From the coarsest of fabric to the finest of
 gold. Boots and shoes mixed up with fancy goods, Pig iron thrown down on crockery ware; Dry goods and groceries would fill a vast
 space, And everything else be right there in it's
 place. Thus fancy. might run and many moro
 things be said. But we've positive proof the drummer isn't
 dead. For in passing an hour in a customers
 store I had an'introduction to dozen or moro. They are living and moving, I am happy to
 say And Jolly good fellows they are by the way. Have a smile for the boys when they call at And give them kind greeting if you do noth-

A good thing-the Travellers Protec- tive association. Push it along.
 Avoid dissipated companions-unless they have money.
 Make 1t a point to be on good terms with your fellow travelers-the house pays the bills.
 Never take advantage of an incom- petent or inexperienced buyer-unless the opportunity presents itself
 Never try to convince a customer who won't be convinced-smash him.

MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review.

New York. Sept. l7.-Stocks were duh
but strong today. The transactions footed
up 1870 shares. Operators who were
generally arrayed on the bear side yester-
day made n complete change of front and
were moderate buyers throughout the ses-
sion. At the start the market was stimu-
lated by more favorable advices from Lon
don regarding the political situation in the
east. Near the close 1t was rumored that
Lazard Freres had engaged 4 big block of
gold abroad for shipment to New York.
This new engagement of gold amounting
to "a, 100000 had Il strengthening effect and
the shorts were bidders for stocks right
up to the adjournment of the board. Man.
haitian and Sugar were the particularly
strong stocks. Speculation closed strong
with an upward tendency. Net changes
show gains of ha4 per cent. the latter In
