The Clocks Tick.

Not all people," said the jeweler,
like the ticking of a clock. 1t Is a
pleasant sound to most people, but not
to all. Some people, clock lovers these.
couldn't sleep without a clock in the
same room. Its ticking is company,
and it scares away the spooks. Such
people would wake up If the clock
should stop in the middle of the night
But there are other people who can't
sleep with q clock in the same room
and who, if they found themselves in
a strange place anywhere with a clock
in their sleeping apartment. would
stop the clock before they went to bed.
OF course there is much of habit in
this, but we have our fancies about
clocks, as we do about all things else"
