When water eets lnto the Msteh.

A watchmaker who has worked at the bench for over a quarter Of cen tury gave this advice io watch owners who may accidentally get water into their watches
 Do not open you watch until you secure some sort of dish into which to place it. and also enough kerosene to cover it all over; any old tin can will do. Open your watch case. both front and back covers. and carefully move it around in the kerosene until you have filled 1t with oil. Allow it to remain in the kerosene until you. can have it cleaned. It will come out of the oil without any of the parts nistins thus saving much expense and the watch.-Popular Science.

or all our birds the plover is abso-

and we have the authority of the
board OF agriculture for saying that

The bird destroys snails, wlreworms,

Ganay Cs4n HilIssas ~ Which Ass
Saia - Ne CfseulataA0.
A correspondent Asks why the Unit
ID States currency does not include
z-cent piece. Probably It will surprise
the inquirer to know that there are
2S.634.664 2-ccnt pieces now in cir
culation" In the United States. says
the National Grange. According to
the treasury records there were 49,
100000 of these coins mintsd between
April 22. 1864. when the 2-cent piece
was FIRST authorized. and FEB. II.
1873. when the Issue was discontin-
ued. Only 16.s66.446 OF the coins has
been retired and melted for recoinage
into cents up to July last
When the coinage OF the 2-cent
piece was discontinued In 1873 there
was no particular mission for 1t as
there IL now. An extra cent had to
be added to buy letter postage
stamp. The 2-cent newspaper had
hardly arrived. The Scent piece was
the handy coin. fitted for these daily
Incidental purchases of the people.
This Is indicated by the fact that the
coinage Of nickel Scent pieces was
continued until 1890. BY that time the
price standard had changed. Two-cent
letter postage was in vogue; newspa-
pers had been reduced to the 2-cent
rate. Bargain counters had inaugu-
rated the 2-cent basis of cut prices.
The Scent piece no longer had a mis-
sion. But instead Of resuming the
coinage Of 2-cent pieces to fit the con-
venience OF the times the people have
been compelled to use two coins for
the most common and frequent incl
dents OF exchange. for which a single
coin should have been provided.
The United States Is the only large
nation which does not have a coin in
Its national currency system compare
Bile to the 2-cent piece. Great Britain
has Its penny; France has Its 1O-cen-
time piece; Germany has 10-pfennig
and Austria a 10-heller coin; Italy
has coin OF 10-centessemi and Portu-
gal 20-reis piece; Mexico has s.
centavo piece and Japan a 5-sen coin.
1t Is somewhat singular that the Unit
ed States, recognizing 2-cent stand
ard In It's postage rates and accepting
as fixed and standard a 2-cent piece
for purchases recurring with daily
regularity, should leave the gap in its
currency between the nickel and the
cent and fail to serve the convenience
OF the public by an intermediate coin.
1t may not be desirable that the old
2-cent piece be restored in size and
bulk. but in more convenient form a
2-cent piece would be welcome add.
ton to our subsidiary coinage There
would be plenty OF use for 1t now.
