though it had stopped at least once,
was still in fairly good condition
and good for some future use. But
this was an extraordinary case.
Most watches, however excellent
they may have been originally,
would with constant use wear out
in far less time.
Sometimes there are brought in
to jewelers. fine old and once valua-
BILE watches whose owners, desiring
now to buy a new watch, wish to
offer the old watch at,some price
in exchange, but it is of no value
except for the weight of the metal
contained in its cases. Every jewel
er has an accumulative collection
of such old works, which are of no
value whatever, except that at
long intervals there may be found
among them a wheel or a part that
may serve in some other old time
watch brought in for repair.
So watches do wear out, and as
to the life of watch, a jeweler
said, a good average watch with fair
care ought to wear from thirty to
forty years and a fine watch fifty
years; it might last seventy-five.
but fifty years would probably be
nearer the figure
1t may be thought that a superb
or watch would last longer than
that, but really the wonder is that
this delicate piece Of mechanism
running year after year ceaselessly
should run so long. New York

Holy Rollers Whipped

A couple Of ministers of the Holy
Roller sect, who have been at work
in Judsonia and vicinity, for some
time, were taken out last night and
after being severely whipped, were
started south down the railroad
track and warned to keep their faces
turned south and also to keep NOV
ing. These parties have been
preaching a doctrine in that COM
munity that people should not take
medicine. A party by the name of
Owenberry, who is a member of
this sect, refused to have medical
aid for his family, and his wife died.
Several other members of this
family are very sick, and he still re-.
fused to secure aid. Efforts had
been made to induce Owenberry to
secure physician, which he refused
to do. Last night parties took
charge of Oweuberry and placed
him in the calaboose and gave
medical aid to his family. After
waiting on this party, they then
proceeded to take charge of the
preachers and after giving them a
good thrashing, headed them south,
and at last reports they were still
moving. Searcy Daily Citizen.
