1t is the book Il woman marks that is

This conclusion has been arrived at
after long and persistent study of the

Watches Slower at Night.

Watches Slower at Night.
''You know that the vital energies are
at lower ebb at night than in the day
time," said an old matchmaker. would
you believe that soma watches-espe-
cially the cheaper ones-are similarly
affected?
you know a good matchmaker al
ways wants several days in which to
regulate timepiece. That is because
the only way to regulate it properly is
to compare it with chronometer at
the same hour every day. Otherwise
the variations in the speed of the watch
will battle his efforts.
THE man to whom was apprenticed
told ME this, and thought the idea alb
surd. We were working late one night
and he called my attention to lot of
watches that were regulated and ready
to deliver. 1t was near midnight, and
every watch was slow. The better
tmepieces had Jagged behind some Sec
onds. The cheaper watches were
minute or more out of the way. Next
morning every one of the lot was ex-
actly right.
''The fact is you can regulate watch
to make exactly twenty-four hours
day, but you can't persuade it to make
just sixty minutes in each of the twen-
ty-four hours. Why this is no one can
tell."-New York Times.

WALES.

Miss Mime and Emma kroetsch of
Mt. Carmel are the guests of friends at
the Wales hotel this week.
Chris Lasham came up from Langdon
and helped out the Wales orchestra at
the dance given Tuesday night by the
bachelors club
The Misses Fullerton drove in Tues
day and were prevailed on by friends to
stay over and attend the card party and
dance given that evening by the bachelors
club.
Last Friday evening Mr.. and Mrs. w.
Moran. entertained party of seventy
five of their friends. Refreshments we're
served and the evening pleasantly spent
in cards and dancing.
Wales was represent at the county
seat on Tuesday by w. j. Montgomery,
A. Mcclellan, Andrew w. Dewitt and a
number of others called there as wit
nesses at case in court.
There were at least two hundred
people present at the card party and
dance given in the hall here on Tuesday
evening and to the credit of the bachelors
club we can say that it was one of the
finest affairs that Wales has been known
to enjoy.
On Sunday the Oath occurred the
wedding of Miss Laurie Anweiler. of
Dresden and Mr.. Jacob Hautz of this
place. The ceremony took place at
Dresden, the bridal couple taking Mon
days passenger train for wedding trip
which will include visit with friends
in the Twin Cities. They will in few
weeks return to make their home in

to haul lumber from town with which
he will put up quite fine house this

The bells are already ringing for a
wedding that is expected to come of
before the beginning of Lent. Wonder
who they are?
John Odderman is living in the resi-
dence of P. Schuler this winter while
the later is spending the winter visiting

netted him the sum of $1,000 He had
just begun to get things into pretty
good shape around his place and every
one is sorry to see him deciding to sell
out.
The musically inclined of this town
ship have got to work on the organizing
of brass band and some of the boys
have got so far along as to be figuring
that they will do their part in furnish
ing the music at the st. Louis fair this
summer.
1t is announced that there will be
another dance at the home of Mr.. Gau
just as soon as the cold weather lets up
a little and some of the young folks have
got over their attack of the prairie itch.
The last we heard the invitation cards
are to be sent out next week.
The snow storms which we have had
the past two weeks have had the effect
of keeping things very quiet in through
here. Cold weather and bad roads kept
everyone at home and hauling of wood
and hay had to be postponed awaiting a
let up of the cold spell. The last day
or two the people are beginning to dig
themselves out and take a peep at what
the storm did to things.
Thorian Hettwer is talking of opening
up laundry here in the spring and

Two Standards.

One of the strangest illustrations Of
the ups and downs of fortune comes
from Paris.
A rich Partisan banker became re-
duced through unlucky investments to
the sum of 10000 francs. That amount
was poverty to him, and, overwhelmed
by his loss and the hopelessness of the
situation, he committed suicide.
The 10000 francs then fell to his
brother, who had been for years a pau
per, estranged from his family. But
to him such sum represented incred-
ible riches, and his reason was over
thrown. In moment of delirium he
jumped into the Seine and was drown

Power of tile United states Senate

The senate is today thc most power
full single chamber in any legislative
body in the world, but this power,
which is shown daily by the wide at
tention to all that is said and done in
the senate of the United States. is not
the product of selfish and cunning usur-
pations ON the part of an ambitious
body. 1t is due to the original consti-
tuition OF the senate. to tie fact that
the senate represents states, to the pow.
ers conferred upon it at the outset by
the makers of the constitution. to its
permanency of organization and to the
combination of legislative, executive
and judicial functions which sets it
apart from all other legislative bodies.
Without the assent of the senate no
bill can become law, no Office can be
filled. no treaty ratifed.-Henry Cabot

An interesting statement descriptive
of the government printing office at

plOyed there by Uncle Sam, was made
today to a Star reported by Mr.. Arthur
p. Ferl, a recent employee of that far
away institution, but who is now set

err. 1t is no uncommon thing to find
two or three boys working side by side
who cannot converse in their native
tongue, and these generally resort to
Spanish. which nearly all understand.
They are nearly all students, and
readily acquire knowledge of the
English language. The employees of
this office are required to attend night
school, so that now every native who
has been in the Office any length of
time speaks English.
1T should be borne in mind that the
Manila printing office is one of the
most modern institutions in the world,
having all the latest and most improv-
ed machinery for printing, folding.
binding, electrotyping, photo-engrav
ing, etc. Many of the machines would
puzzle an American unless he was up
to-date, and yet the natives are hand
ling all these machines with such sue
cess that very few of the American
employees are required to do more thar
oversee the work.
IN the front office may be seen ma
tive clerks, boOkkeepers, stenographers
and typewrters and messengers The
work in the proof room is done by Am
orleans with lady copy holders and a
few native readers and copyholdeTs
who handle the dialects and most OF
the Spanish. In the composing room
there is an American foreman, two or
three linotype operators and several
others in such positions as makeup,

and comfort as would make an anti

work, they take to the machine as if
they were made for each other
"Of the twelve linotype machines in
the office, ten are operated by our lit
tie brown brothers and with very fair
success. All job work and blank work
is done by natives; the copy must be
carefully prepared, of course, and as
everything is printed in English and
Spanish, on the same sheet this is
quite task About the same proper
ton of printers make good job print
ers as is found among Americans.
There is an American Printers uni
on in Manila to which the native do not
belong, but they have a society among
themselves, which takes the place of a
union, as evidenced by an incident that
happened about a year ago We were
very busy in the office and did not pro-
pose to recognize a certain church holt
day, so a number of the employees ma-
tives) sent a note to the public printer
which, While it was hardly English,
meant: we understand that we have
to work tomorrow, but as it is a holt
day we do not Intend to do So And
they didn't.
"All Filipinos who do no hard work
have three long fingernails the thumb
and forefinger on the left hand, which
the printers use as tweezers, and the
little firger on the right.
1T looks quite picturesque to see two
or three hundred natives coming to
work in the morning, all dressed in
white: but go through the building fif-
teen minutes after the whistle blows,
and what do we see? The white suits
have all disappeared and we behold a
motley collection of skinny brown arms
and bony legs clad in a scanty suit of
underwear.
while the office hours in the Manila
office are from s to IL a. m. and to 5
p m, which would seem easy enough
for anyone, it is hard to keep the ma
tive at work. He must take a rest Of
two or three days every few weeks,
and on this account it is almost i'm
possible to put native in a position
where there is any responsibility or
where he has charge II a number of
men When they want to stay away
from office they are required to furnish
an excuse, and l recall one man in par
ticular who buried seven children, his
mother and father and several broth
ers and sisters in one year. They are
all like a lot of children and have to
be treated as svch. "-Washingt Star
