a turtle, wandering far beyond accus-

LAMPS THAT ARE CLOCKS,
They Were Commonly Used In the
Seventeenth Century.

| They Were Commonly Used In tn
Seventeenth Century.
OF the various examples that have
been given of early specimens of the
clockmaker's art not the least interest
ing are the several types Of lamp
clocks. One of these was Of q kind
quite common In the seventeenth CELL
tury and consisted Of lamp burner
placed at the base Of glass oil re-
| ceptacle mounted vertically on suit
| able standard. The Oil reservoir had
attached to it scale, facing the burner
and showing the hours, beginning at
o'clock In the afternoon, at which time
the lamp was to be lighted in winter.
and ending at Z o'clock in the morning.
The lamp being lighted, the gradually
descending level Of the oil, as combus-
ton proceeded, marked the hours.
| The other device, of later origin. dat
ing back to the beginning Of the pres
ent century, utilized the same principle.
1t consisted Of two communicating oil
chambers. superposed by a clock dia
In one Of the chambers was placed l
night lamp TO Illuminate uAS 0ial, dNA
In the other was suspended float
from a cord which passed around ,
small pulley. The latter was mounte1
on horizontal axis ending In the Ger
ter of the dial The float of course de-
scended as the oil was consumed an !
carried the index hand along with t.,
thus making the hours precisely as IN
the case already cited. At their best
these timepleces could have had ONLY
an Indifferent degree Of accuracy, yet
they probably served their purpos',
we'll and certainly are interesting at
the present time as illustrating som,
of the expedients adopted by mechani-
clans Of an earlier period.-Cassier'

There is limit to human strength,
brain and nerve force, and when we
overstep the limit the result is ner-
vous prostration.
The causes which are responsible
for this disease are many; over-exer-
tor, worry, dissipation, excuses and
abuses OF various kinds, which result
in exhausting drains upon the nervous
system. Both mind and body become
worn out and with palpitating heart
the victim of nervous prostratfon is
indeed in sorry plight, and gradually
drifts into confirmed dependency and
invalidism.
In advising wheeler's Nerve vitalizer
as a speedy cure, it Is not expected
that the patient will accept the advice
with ZEAL because the very nature Of
the disease makes him doubtful and
hopeless. Fortunately the medicine is
not dependent upon confidence in 1t. in
fact nearly all cured report they had
absolutely no confidence In any medf-
cine.
This is unfortunate because undoubt-
eddy many sufferers will either refuse
or neglect to take wheeler's Nerve
vitalizer and be restored to health
and usefulness and, as result, will
drift on through life hopelessly suf-
fering and praying for the end The

A NOVEL CASE.
Opelahsas Courier.


A case unique in the annals OF
st. Landry, at last of recent years,
was before the District Court this
week. Mr.. Adelma Guidry, men,
Der of the Police Jury for the
Third ward, claiming that one of
the road contractors in his ward
had failed to comply with the
terms of his contract, refused TO
approve his claim, and the said
contractor thereupon instituted
suit against the parish for the
amount alleged to be due him. 1t
is so unusual for the Police Jury
to refuse to pay any bill placed be-
fore it that we hasten to place this
matter to their credit, aud parti-
cularly to the credit of Mr.. Gui-
dry; for, while we are not very
acquainted with the facts aad mer-
it's of the present case, we know
enough of the manner in which
the parish funds are usually ad-
ministered to be inclined to be-
lieve that there must have been
strong grounds for MIR. Guidry
and the Police Jury to take the
stand they did, and we are there
fore encouraged to look upon this
very novel case as a hopeful sign
for the future. So mote it be.
