Mary Stuart'S Curious Watches.

Among the watches owned by
Mary Stuart was a coffin-shaped
watch in case of crystal. Probably
the most remarkable one in her COL
lection was the one which was be-
queathed to Mary Seaton, her maid
of honor. 1t was in the form of a
skull. On the forehead OF the skull
was the symbol of death, the scythe
and the hour-glass. At the back of
the skull was Time, and at the top
of the head was the Garden of Eden
and the Crucifxion. The watch was
opened by reversing the skull. In
side Was a representation of the
Holy Family surrounded by angels,
while the shepherds and their Aocks
were worshipping the new, born
Christ. The works formed the
brains, while the dial plate was the
palate. She also possessed another
skull-shaped watch, but it is not
known what became of it.

happy man. II l reckon up the rare
minutes of real happiness in my life
I do not believe they would make
"a hours in all. In my political life
I rever had time to have the feeling
of happiness. But in my private
life there have been moments of
happiness. l remember, for instance,

pleasure to see my irrigated meadows
and plantations thriving, and at
