King Edwards Clocks.
the London Mail

1Ae iiN
During the coming season, when the
king and queen are away from Sand
bingham and the park n grounds are
occasionally open to visitors, the plat
form of Wolverton, the station of
Sangringham, is now and again occu-
pied by bands of people who complain
angrily that they are half an hour too
soon for their train. They have not
discovered in time hat all the clocks
at Sandringham are kept half an hour
fast.
This is a curious fancy which the
king shares with several of his friends.
Lord Pembroke for instance, whose
clocks at Wilton house are all half an
hour fast. At no place, however, is the
scheme carried out more thoroughly
clocks in the house, stables and ken
nels, and even the church clock, are
kept exactly half an hour fast.
A we'll known scientific writer visit
ing Sandringham recently from Hum
stanton, and finding himself at the sta
ton with these thirty minutes Of leis-
ure, occupied them in an interesting
the influence of human beings on
clocks and on other objects which
would not be suspected by the ordinary
human being of having nerves"
II dare wager" he said. that in the
private rooms of a punctual and bust
ness like man such as the king the
clocks do not lose or gain a minute a
week. Put the same clocks in the
of an untidy, cratic, unpunctual
man, and even If he does not alter
them every day on pretense of their
being wrong, they always will be
wrong.
There is nothing unusual in this.
You know how the health and moods
OF a woman will affect the jewels which
she is wearing, so that her pearls or
opals Will be radiantly white or clear
one day, when she is in good health
and spirits, and dull and sickly looking
the next. You know how the clothes
of a weak n sickly man look shabby
and faded at once, how silver tarnishes
IN MS pockets and his top hat always
declines to shine. One could multiply
instances ad inf1nitum Of the effect Of
personality on inanimate Objects"

feeding, let the meal go, and do not
give any food until the next feeding-I
hour comes,' says Mariana Wheeler,
the famous baby expert of Harper's,
Bazaar. J
For the first twenty-four hours after
birth very little food is necessary; feed
the infant about once in five hours. If
IL is possible, the baby should be nursed
by the mother, as the nourishment it
receives from her contains certain in
gradients which are necessary to-.
cleanse the stomach and intestinal
tract of the newly born, as we'll as
tc stimulate the digestive juices to ac-i
tivity. If for some good reason it is not
possible for the mother to nurse her
child, give as a substitute a little
boiled water slightly sweetened or thin
cruel d~extrinized. After the first thir-
ty-six hours milk can be given in q
dilute form. Cows milk can be diluted,
PLAIN, or IN the form of top milk. The.
d1lutent should be a thin cruel or boiled

SEEKING POSITIONS.

Many capable women are %unsuccess-
full in securing positions solely on ac-
count of the way in which they apply
for them.
First impressions count in every walk
OF life, but there is no place where
they are of the vital Importance tina
they are in obtaining positions.
The woman who hears of a position
for which she wishes to apply often
says: Pm going to be around there
some time today and I'll just drop in
and ask for t." and almost as often
as she says it does she find it necessary
to try elsewhere. BY the time she gets
around to drop I'M" she is tired, her
hair is blown about her fact, and she
has a don't care whether / get it or
not attitude, and ten to one she doesn't
get it.
If a position is worth applying for
1t is worth taking some trouble over
and the girl who is going to make the
best impression on an employer is the
n who is going to give some fore
thought to what she will say and how
she will look when she finally is given
an appointment With him.
She does not put on any dress she
happens to think of. She carefully Sc
lects her very best street suit and the
most becoming waist She owns. She
wears a neat little street hat even If it
is necessary to buy one Just for the
occasion and her gloves and shoes are
in perfect order. She makes it a point
to so when h is thoroughly rested
and looking her best. Employers would
probably deny it if they were accused
but personal appearance goes farther
toward securing women positions than
any other one thing. 1t is a potent fac
tor thai influences subtly and uncon-
%sciously but that turns the scale either
for or against every time.

is very particular to find out before
applying, the name of the mar whom
she wishes to see and at what hour it
will be best to call. She will show that
she has some understanding of what
work he wants lone and will waste no
time in asking the unnecessary ques-
tions that h can just as we'll find
out from some one else before hand.
Above all she will be businesslike and
brief. She Will realize that his time
is worth money to him and tina he does
not want the history of her life, how
many sisters n brothers she has and
how it happened that she was com
PEELED to earn her OWL living. he wants
to know only what she has done in the
particular line of work for which he is
asking. She has her recommendations
ready, too, and wastes no words in
singing her own praises, she allows
them to do that for her.
Another very important point In Sc
curing a position is to pay the strict
est attention to the requests of the mar
who is seeking help. If he has a stated
time to receive applicants she goes at
that stated time. If he asks that she
apply by letter she does not think of
going in person unless he notifies her
to that effect. She may think she could
have arranged much better herself. but
If she really wants to make an impress
SIGN that is at all favorable she will
consider not her w pleasure, but that

his hands,

as 1T revolves with the cafe.
How che Cafe RevoIves.
In mechanical construction, this re-
volving cafe will be something like a
moving sidewalk or an escalator. The
entire circular platform is to rest on
roller bearings. Under the middle of
the platform, extending around the en-
tire circumference, is a large, car-steel
rack. AT sixteen equi-distant points
there will be electric motors on oper-
ating steel pinions. These pinions en-
gage the rack directly and simultane-
ously move the circular platform slow
ly II noiselessly around.
This revolving safe will be on the
same floor with the main hall, flush
with its concrete floor. The extreme
outside edge will be protected by an
iron railing six feet high. SO it will be
impossible for you to fall into space
while you are taking your dinner.

itors when each new season comes
around with its newest marvel. Luna

JAPANESE GESTURES.

The japanese spend much time In
studying the graceful use of their
hands. Sometimes they practice one
gesture for hours before a highly pol

motion as 81 mirror. To use the hands
~awkwardly in Japan is regarded as a
very great offense. 1t would seem.
then. that American wonen might add
to their attractions by a more animated
and significant use Of their hands-not
in the way of ~affectation, but as a
variation in the monotony of speech.
