From Rock Hill Herald.
1t is interesting to be a con-
slant reader of advertisements in
newspapers. Sometimes the
things that are said are rich aud
a great many times great deal
is to be learned by reading them.
Yesterday we picked up an ex-
change and commenced reading
the news. On one page we found
an advertisement headed "Work
of Watch Wheels" and after
reading only a few lines We saw
it was interesting. So this is the
way it read:
Every few who carry a watch
ever think of the unceasing labor
it performs, and there are many
who think a watch ought to run
for years without cleaning or a
drop of oil. Read this and judge
for yourself: The main wheel
in an ordinary American watch
makes tour revolutions in twen-
ty four hours, or l ,460 in a year.
The center wheel makes twenty
four revolutions in day, or 81
760 in a year. The third wheel
1872 in day, or 1850 in year.
The fifth wheel $4,000 in a day,
or 141, 1882, 900 in year. 1t is
evident then that watch, to do
good service, should be cleaned
and "iled once in Is months, if
not oftener. Clocks ditto"

Rest is the great restorer. We tire oar
muscles by exercise and then rest to restore
them; yet great many of us do not stop
to think how little rest we give to our
stomachs. As usual thing no part of our
bodies is so generally overworked rs our
digestive organs. A tired and overworked
stomach will givu signs of distress to which
we pay no heed until at last Dyspepsia
