Very few people are aware OF the
fact that in a watch they are always
provided with compass, with which,
when the sun is shining, the cardinal
points can be determined. All one
has to do is to point the hour hand to
the sun, and south is exactly half way
between the hour and figure II on the
watch. This may seem strange to the
average reader. but it is easily ex-
planned. While the sun is passing
over lS0 degrees (east to west) the
hour hand OF the watch passes over
800 degrees (from 6 o'clock to 6
o'clock. Therefore the angular
movement OF the sun in one hour cor
responds to the angular movement OF
the hour hand in half an hour; hence,
if we point the hour hand toward the
sun the line from the point midway
between the hour hand and u o'clock
to the pivot OF the hands will point to
the south.

The Costa xican Counserreiters.

For months the Costa Rican coun-
terfeiters have been issuing bogus
notes of the government of the island
until the amount, it is said, has reach
ed 81 100000. Inspectors OF the se-
cret service bureau were chiefly in
terested in bringing the malefactors to
Justice. The efficiency OF the secret
service is undoubted. but it is by no
means secret, but patent fact, that
the service that Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters does the weak, nervous and

have been from time to time counter
feits of it, but the miniature note OF

BATTERY AND TROOP HORsEs.
Brain Power an Important Factor
I'm Their Selection.

Only nine out of a band of sixty
horses brought into Salt Lake for the
use Of the Utah troopers and artillery
battery were accepted. The horses
undergo a most rigid inspection
by government farriers and must not
only be perfectly sound in wind, limb
and hoof, but must possess a certain
degree Of brain power indicating more
than the average amount of intelli-
gence. This is determined by the
breadth Of the brow between the
eyes.
During the heat OF action with an
enemy bugle calls and commands
cannot be heard above the roar of ar
tillery and rattle Of musketry. and
battery horses are trained to follow
the movements Of the guidon bearers.
When the batteries are called into
action the guidon bearer gallops to
the point where the battery is to fire
on the enemy. The artillery follows
at full speed, and when the place
where the guidon bearer is stationed is
reached the artillery horses perform
the evolution of right into line without
word of command or bugle blast,
and when the guns are unlimbered
gallops to the rear with the caissons to
the point where the guidon bearer
takes his second station, wheeling to
the left in line with the precision Of
infantry.

Michigan a Resort State.

An official Directory, showing brief
| " but strikingly the advantages of the
numerous summer and health resorts,
the mineral springs and the excellent
sanitaria in Michigan, is soon to be
distributed by the State Board Of
HEALTH
In accordance with resolution of
the legislature, the Board has caused
to be made a thorough inquiry into the
subject of Michigan's resorts, and has
collected information that will be Of
great interest and value to future
tourists to this State, including in
creasiug numbers of persons resident
in other states who in every hot sum-
mer seek healthful and pleasant sur
roundings further north; and the pub
LEGATION presents the Great Lake States
immense resort capacity in a very fay
orable light.
Beginning at the southeastern corn
er of the State, making Detroit the
initial point, in q series of short des-
criptive articles, the text of the pamph
let follows the lake shore up to Mack
mac Island treats of the Upper PENN
sula, and then deals with the resorts on
the Lake Michigan shore, following
southwark to the southwestern corner
of the State. The inland resorts are
next taken up, then the mineral springs,
and then the sanitaria. The pretty In
dian legends and traditional history Of
each locality has been briefly and inter-
estingly chronicled, the information is
accurately, tersely and impartially
stated, and facts are presented in such
a readable manner as to make the work
worthy of great commentator.
Among the prominent features of
the directory are the numerous pic
lures of beautiful localities, pretty or
historic spots, marine views, and many
of the beautiful places so plentiful in
this State, making an attractive and
very interesting publication. Before
the next hot season, the DIRECTORY"
will be distributed among sanitarians
and prominent public-health men
throughout the United States and
neighboring provinces, authorities in
their several States and Provinces, on
conditions of healthful existence, also
to public libraries, and wherever it is
likely to do the most good in spreading
Michigan's fame as a health resort
abroad in the land.
The typographical work on this
Summer Resort Directory is COM
mendable; and altogether, the State
Board of Health is to be congratulated
upon such a satisfactory effort TO place
Michigan at the head of the States as a
health and summer resort.
A limited number of copies can be
had by citizens of Michigan inter
ested in the subject by sending the
stamps with which to prepay the pos
tage, which is six cents on each copy.
