An inflexible rule to be observed
In the auditorium of the Rouss CITY

few weeks immediately succeeding
the spring and autumn openings of
millinery. And another rule should
should be that the drop curtain in

The clerk, a girl. looked at it hastily.
1t read $1,000. She had never seen O
thousand dollar bill before in her life,
and the amazement it caused made her
speechless. With her mouth open in
wonder she made out the check, show
ing that 40 cents was to be taken out
of $1,000. The girl who acts as cashier
fell back in her chair when she saw the
bill. She didn't have change for 1t,
and after gazing ut it in wondering adj

YOUR WATCH.

In laying aside watch be sure that
It rests upon its case.
A watch should be wound up every
day at the same hour.
Avoid putting it on a marble slab or
near anything excessively cold.
If suspended, the action of the bal
ance may cause oscillation, which will
interfere with its going.
A sudden change of temperature, con-
tracing the metal, may sometimes
cause the handspring to break.
The cold also coagulates the oil. and
the pivots and wheels work less freely
and affect the regularity Of the time
keeping.
To keep your watch clean take care
that the case fits closely and see that
the watch pocket is kept free from
fluff, which is so often given of by
Innings.
Avoid sudden Jars and falls, for even
If 1t does not seem to affect 1t at the
moment, a watch will resent rough
handling by becoming gradually "ou'
of order without apparent cause.
