A Kankakee county man Is the pos
SCISSOR of one of the most wonderful
clocks in the country. This clock 10
rs near perpetual motion machine as
any piece OF mechanism yet designed.
The owner is not a perpetual motion
crank. but is an exceedingly ingenious
jeweler named Peter M. Ravenskiide
of Cabery, hustling town in the
southwestern portion Of Kankakee
county. The clods is the product OF
many years Of study and labor ana
considerable expense. 1t keeps accur-
ate time and will run for year with
out the least attention from its owner.
The clock proper is run with wheel
sixty inches in circumference. From
the outer surface OF the circumference
are suspended 12O cups, each one-haif
inch in diameter and third OF an
inch deep. Each of forty Of these cups.
which are successive, contains steel
ball three eighths of an inch in diam
eter. Every minute and half, as
this weel turns by the weight of these
balls, one Of them falls out of its cup
rolls down an inclined plane twenty
inches long, when. by its own weight
it reunites broken circuit of cleo
tricity, and is again elevated by 1T
tie car travelling along a sleeper in
clined plane to the top of the wheel
where it falls into cup which stands

its original station from its own
weight. From the time one OF these
balls is dropped into cup until it is
again dropped into another cup it trav-
els thirty-six inches. Thus the work
one ball travelling over one mile day;
400 miles in one year. and during the
lifetime Of a person living three score
years the distance around the globe.
The electricity used is generated in an
ordinary storage battery, and does not
require any attention for fully year
Another clock owned by Mr.. Ravens
kilde is Of similar construction, but
considerably smaller. This clock is
used to attract attention in the store
A porcelain globe is placed back of the
clock and at night green red and white
electric lights reflect their rays alter
nately on the face Of the clock, the col
ots being changed each time the ball is
discharged from one of the cups on the
timepiece. Mr.. Ravenskilde has had
many offers to exhibit his clocks. but
refuses to do so, and SO far he has not
had the mechanism patented.

Comfort for Nemsn.

Some time ago Pullman's Palace Car
company built three parlor cars fof
the B, 4 O.'s New York trains, and the
radical departure from other cars OF
this character lay in the toilet room
for ladies. which was eight feet In
length. Recently the same company
has built eight new sleepers for the
New York-St. Louis line Of the B. = u,
and the designer Of the cars has evil
IDENTIFY been impelled by the popular
ity Of the ladies' retiring room In the
parlor cars to give to the ladies vast
deal more space than they ever had be-
fore in sleeping cars. These new cars
are said by the Pullman people to be
the finest they ever turned out, ana
the ladies' retiring room is exceeding
" eommodious, and contains, besides
other toilet necessities. dresser with
q long pier glass. The cars are nm
ished in vermillion wood, decorated
With tnlaid marquetry work. and the
upholstery on the backs and seats Is
entirely new and different from any
heretofore used, being sort OF mo-
ouette with dark green border and
center pattern of bright color. A sim
liar desisn of ornamentation has been
applied to the ceiling. giving the car
~ srabesque effect. They are also
supplied with all the modern appli-
ances. such as wide vestibules. anti
telescoping device. air pressure water
system and are lighted with Pintsch
ras, A very pleasing effect Is obtained
by the oval windows of opalescent
9iass. the first that has been used In
the construction of the sleeping cars.

STORIES OF RELIEF.
Two Letters to Mrs. Pinkham.
Mrs. JOHN WILLIAMS, Englishtowu.

Mrs. JOHN WILLIAMS, Englishtown,
N. j., writcs
"DEAR MRs. PINKuAM:-I cannot be-
gin to tell you how l suffered before
taking your remedies. l was SO weak
that could hardly walk across the floor
without falling. had womb trouble
and such n bearing-down feeling; also
suffered with my back and limbs, pain
in womb. Inflammation of the bladder,
piles and indigestion. Before l had
taken one bottle of Lydia L. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound felt a great deal
better, and after taking two and one
Liver Pills was cured. If more would
take your medicine they would not
have to suffer SO much"
Mrs. JOSEPH PETERSON, 513 East ST.,
Warren, Pa, writes:
"DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM:-I have suf-
fered with womb trouble over fifteen
years. l had inflammation, enlarge
ment and displacement of the womb.
l had the bacllache constantly. also
headache. and was SO dizzy. ! had
heart trouble, it seemed as though my
heart was in my throat at times chok
ing me. l could not walk around and
could not lie down, for then my heart
would beat SO fast ! would feel as
though l was smothcring. | had to
sit up in bed nights in order to breathe.
l was so weak l conld not do any
thing.
Il have now taken several bot
ties Of Lydia L. Pinlshams Vegetab Bile

l am perfectly cured. do not think

ENGLAND STILL PREPARING.
Continues to Get Ready for War Though
EashOda Il Given I'm.

EAbuOuh ~ olttH Up.
London. Nov. 4.-Despite the jubila.
ton of the country over the favorable
announcement of Lord Salisbury re.
garding Fnshoda, at the Kitchener ban.
quet, there is serious uneasiness as to
the real object Of continued war pre-.
parations.
These preparations can hardly he
justified, even by Lord Salisbury'a
warning, that there are still matters in
dispute with France.
A dispatch from Hong Kong, re.
ceived late tonight, again remarks up.
on the unusual naval and military nc.
tivity there. The dispatch says Gen.
eral Black and his staff have been in.
specting the old frontier of British Kau
Lung Kow Loom, and selecting points
and siege guns are being mounted and
the men-ofwar lying off Hong Kong
are embarkins large quantities of am
munitiOn.
The fleet has been signaled to send
no mails by the French steamer leav-
ing to day tSaturday) This order is
regarded as extremely significant.
The Berlin correspondent of the Daily
News says:
SIT is asserted in well informed quar-
ters that the British war preparations
are connected with the Philippine ques-
ton, in which the United States gov
ernment is working in agreement with
England The rumOrs are revived that
the United States intends ceding to
some of the islands or granting
coalfng stations there"

Our boy was absolutely helpless His
lower limbs We're paralygel, and when we
used electricity he could not feel it below
bis hips Finally we let the doctor 90 as he
did not seem to help our son and we nearly
gave up hope. Finally my mother who
lives in Canada wrote, advising the use of
Dr. williams Pink Pills for Pale People,
and bought some.
This was when our boy had been on the
stretcher for an entire year and helpless
for nine months. In six weeks after taking
tho pills we noticed signs of vitality in his
legs, and in four months he was able to 90
to school
ut Is two years since he took the first of
the pills and he is at school now Just as
happy and well as my Of the other child
rem. 1t was nothing else in the world that
saved the boy than DR.. Williams Pink

Sons of Their Fathers.

Captain Lee, the British military at
tache who was with the army constant
ly from the time it was organized at
Tampa until after the peace protocol
was announced in Porto Rico, says that
Captain Fred Alger, the son of the Sec
retary of war, impressed him more
than any other young man among the
volunteers as fine type of the soldier.
H speaks in high terms of several 9TH
er sons of prominent fathers who
served at Santiago, but thinks that none
of them surpass the son of The secre-
tary of war in efficiency. endurance
and other qualities which are essential
to a successful military man.
