works of the tin clock, as things are
apt to go wrong with the inwards Of
those S4-cent clocks, and the clock
was running too fast, but as long as
she was up she thought she might as
well stay up, so she did. But in three
hours the hands of the clock had run
around to six again, and Grandma
Pillbeck felt herself irresistably i'm.
PEELED to get into bed again, or, as
she expressed it, "as If some one had
kicked me into bed"
AS she lay there, thinking what
would be the best thing to do, she fell
into doze, and she must have slept
three hours, for, the first thing she
knew she was irresistably impelled
out of bed again. The hands of the
clock were pointing to six!
That afternoon Orlando Pillbeck
her son, took the tin clock and
screwdriver and set to work to cor
rect the clock, and Grandma Pillbeck
had long rest out of bed, for Orlando
found he could not get all the parts
back into the tin clock that he had
taken out Of 1t, but about shutdown
he gave it up, and put all the parts
he could back into the clock. He had
to leave out the little jigger that
keeps the clock from running away
with itself. But by leaving the clock
unwound, and setting the hands per.
sonally when she wanted to go to bed,
and having Orlando set them at six.
when it was time for her to. get up,
she did very we'll, until Orlando hap
pened to go away for week of fish
ing. That week grandma slept a
whole week, and when Orlando re.
turned and set the clock she was so
week from lack of food that she wob-
bled. So Orlando decided to get a
new tin clock, and when the peddler
came around he traded in the old one
and Is cents for new one.
All would have been well. but Il
seems that Grandma Pillbeck had be-.
come attuned to the old clock-as you
might say-and did not respond to
the new one. and the peddler must
have given the old clock to his chill,
dren to play with when he got home.
His children must have spent their
days winding the old tin clock and al.
lowing 1t to run down at the rate OF
"a hours minute. They were prob.
ably early risers, those children, and
went to bed late. and played with the
old tin clock industriously, for from
six q. m. until nine p. m. Grandma
Pillbeck responded to the hands Of
the clock. Every few seconds she
was frresistably inpelled into bed.
and every few seconds eshe was If.

In the death of Grandma Susan
Pillbeck, which took place unexpect-
eddy last Thursday, Betzville lost one
of her most sober-minded female citi-
zens, and by order of the city council
Grape streamer was tied to the Pill
beck box in the Betzville post office.
AS there has been very little doing in
black goods in Betzville lately the
Bankrupt Store next the post Office
supplied the Grape at half-price. The
Bankrupt Store is one of Betzville's
oldest and most enterprising mercan-
tile concerns, and is conducting
mourning sale all this week, in men,
Org of Grandma Pillbeck, who used to
trade there. Anyone expecting to
mourn in the near future should take
advantage of this sale.
When interviewed as to the cause
of Grandma Pillbecks sudden demise,
Orlando Pillbeck, her son, informed
our reporter that she was simply worn
to fragile. As he remarks in the
graceful obituary poem, published on
another page, right under Uncle Ash
dod Clute's hog and cattle sale adver.
tisement:
'GEandma Pillbeck has gone anq went
Getting to bed her strength it spent
And wored her to q FRAGILE"
In this connection we wish to re-
mark that Ephron Quat, proprietor of
the Betzville Furniture Emporium,
says that If Orlando had opened up a
little and had bought grandma one of
the patent spring beds he is now
showing, she would have lasted much.
longer, these beds being bouncy, and
more resilient than the stat bed on
which Grandma Pillbeck frazzled away
to eternity.
It seems that some years ago Grand
ma Pillbeck read in paper that over
sleeping in the morning could be cas-
lily avoided, and as she was regular
oversleeper, she took the article to
heart. It said that it was only nee
essary to getfa clock, and before re-
firing, set the hands to point to the
desired rising time, and stare at them
long and we'll, and when the hands
reached that position in the morning
the sleeper would unfailingly awaken.
SO Grandma Pillbeck got a tin clock
for "a cents and tried it. She set the
hands at six o'clock, and stared at
them for ten minutes, and then set
the clock at the proper time and went
to bed, and, sure enough, at exactly
six o'clock the next morning she
She was delighted, and
did It again the next night, and the
next morning she again awakened at
six o'clock precisely. After that she
kept It up regularly, and It never
failed. For about three years she
gazed at six o'clock every night, and
awakened at six o'clock every morn.
Ing, and by that time she had ac-
uuired the habit Of rising whenever
the hands Of the clock. pointed to SIX.
SHE found that she had looked at the
clock % often that It was no longer

FIGURE 1T OUT.

A banker going home from his
dinner saw a $40 bill on the curb
stone. He picked 1t up and noted
the number and went home to din
ner. While at home his wife re-
marked that the butcher had sent
bill amounting TO $40. The only
money he had with him was the
bill he had found, which he gave
to her, and she paid the butcher.
The butcher paid it to a farmer
for a calf, and the farmer paid it
to merchant, who, in turn, paid
it to washerwoman, and she, ow-
ing the banker a note of $40, went
to the bank and paid the note.
The banker recognized the bill as
the one he had found, and which,
up to that time, had paid $50 of
debts. On careful investigation
he discovered that the bill was
counterfeit. Now, WILSON friend
