KEEPING A WATCH CLEAN.
Valuable Suggestions for Persons
Making Long Runs by
Automobile.

1t frequently happens, espe-
cially during long tours, that au-
tomobilists are troubled with &C.
emulation of fine dust and grit
that finds its way in some man
ner to the working parts of their
watches.
A good way to avoid this an
noyance. is to open the front case
of the watch and with a match,
cut chisel shaped at one end, APP
ply a thin coat of vaseline all
about the seat of the case where
the lid fits. When this is done
treat the back lid of the case in
the same manner. Only a small
quantity of vaseline is required,
just enough to make an un.
broken film of it all the way
round, and it will make the
watch dust proof at these points.
At the end of a month or six
weeks open the cases and you
will be surprised at the amount
of dirt that has collected at the
edges of the case. This removed,
the treatment as outlined above
can be repeated.

Sure Guide to Happiness

Addison, in one of his "Sir
Roger De Coverley" sketches,
says; "a mans first care should
be to avoid the reproaches of his
own heart; his next to escape the
censures of the world; if the last
interferes with the former it
ought to be entirely neglected"
If we may judge from experience
and from the sights and sounds
around us, this is scarcely the
principle which directs the con-
duct of many of us. And yet
there is an immense amount of
practical commOn-sense wisdom
in AddisOn's dictum, for in avoid
ing the repreaches Of his own
heart a man is taking the surest
step toward the highest good
happiness. ~ Philadelphia Led

but Jack and Jill single and Jack and Jill mar

Indeed very few days after marriage-almost
before he has shaken the wedding confetti out
OF his boots and the lining Of his hat, Jack makes
the grand discovery which every married man has
made since the days of Adam.
His Jill is not the Jill with whom he went a

A new Jill has ariscn-a Jill he never knew

what she likes in him, and what she does not.
WHEN THE HONEYMOON WAVES
Hitherto, Jacks idea OF married life has been
that of a sort of glorihcd bacbclordom-a bachc-

petual honeymoon He would have the cake of
bacheordom, and eat il, too, spread with the
| jam of matrimonial bliss.
| Instead OF this he discovers that he has bitten
on a very prosoic mouthful OF brcod-and butter
and not too much butter to it either. And he
has yet TO learn that bread and butter Is good,
everyday food, whilst cake and jam for breakfast
dinner and supper is apt to become sickly diet at
best
| Hitherto, also Jack has hugged the idea that
