FOR LEFT-HANDED PERSONS
Michigan Jeweler Has Put Forward a
Timepiece That Is Tri-
umph of the Art.

e. P. Foley, local jeweler, has
made the tabled reaper obey that poet.
ic summons, backward, turn back.
ward 0 Time, in your fight" Kala.
mazoo (Mich.) correspondent of the
New York Sun writes. He has accom-.
plished this seemingly impossible
thing by the simple expedient of in.
venting a left-handed watch. Instead
of running from left to right, as in
the case of the ordinary timepiece,
Mr. Foley's watch sends it's hands
around from right to left.
The watch was made because one OF
the inventors daughters complained
that the left-handed person has such a
slim chance in life-machinery street
car doors, and even the hands of the
clock-went toward the right hand, as
if to balk the person who happens to
be left handed.
Just to meet the situation, Foley de
signed and built the left-handed
watch. Other left-handed persons, OBJ
serving the ease with which time is
told on the backward dials, expressed
an interest, and it has been found
necessary to start little manufactur
ing company to turn out left-handed
watches and clocks. A left-handed
wrist watch, to be worn very prop
erly on the left wrist, is the next thing
to be turned out.

On Framing Pictures,

A few years ago l heard George
Bernard Shaw give lecture before
the Camera club in London. The one
thing that l remember that he said
was that, in going into a house, he
could always tell the degree of cul
ture and refinement there was in that
house by the width of the mats on the
pictures. OF course, Mr.. Shaw was
trying to be funny as usual, and as
usual there was lots of truth in what
he said. If every one would make Q
tour of the house with that in mind
take down those pictures with the
wide white or colored mats and have
them reframed close, or If a certain
one seems to demand a mat, have q
very narrow one put on it, they would
really be surprised to see the i'm
provement in the appearance Of the
rooms. In many cases the same
frames could be used; they would only
need to be cut down.-Philadelph
Public Ledger.

HOME CIRCLE COLUMN.
A FRIEND OR TWO.

James M. Pierce in his Iowa Home
stead says:
Sometimes in my reading | run
across things so good | cannot refrain
from passing them on to you. Who Of
US, for instance, does not know the
value Of few good friends? Yet who
among US has ever paid a tribute to
our frieeds 50 gracefully and so beauti-
fully as it has been paid by the poet
who wrote the verses which | set forth
herewith:
There's all of pleasure and all of peace
In friend or two;
And all your troubles may find release
With friend or two;
1t is in the grip of the clasping hand
On native soil or in alien land
But the world is made do you under
stnnd?-
OF a friend or two.
A song to sing and a crust to share
With a friend or two;
a smile to give and grief to bear
With friend or two;
A road to walk and goal to win,
An inglenook TO find comfort in,
The gadest hours that we know, be-
gin
With friend or two
A little laughter, perhaps some tears,
With friend or two;
The days. the weeks, and the months
and years
With a friend or two:
A vale to cross and hill to climb,
A mock at age and eer at time
The prose of life takes the Tilt OF ryhme
With friend or two.
Then brm the goblet and quaff the
toast
To friend or two:
For glad the man who can always
boast
OF friond or two,
The fairest sight is friendly face,
The blithest tread is a friendly pace,
And heaven will be better place
For friend or two.
1t is one of thp penalties Of busy
life, such as lead, that often cannot
find the time to sit in the inglenook or
stop in the fence corner and chat with
IA friend or two" There is so much
work to he done, the day is so short,
and 50 we go along denying ourselves
the pleasure which we crave-the grip
OF the clasping hand, the CHEEKY word
of friendship that will Tighten the bur-
dens of the day and rob the nighttime
Of its darkness.
My friend, we do wrong when we do
cot stop, every little while, 10 get the
full value out of our friendships. The
season Of the year is approaching when
the most arduous, insistent duties Of the
farm are over for awhile. How bett, r
could we improve our leisure moments
than by reading the best things we can
get hold OF and by renewing old friend
ships and making new ones which will
last until the last clod has been thrown
upon our final resting place? Life off,
ers US no greater blessing, outside the
circle of our own family, than "a friend
or two lhey mean more to us OF
the farm tnan to any other men; let US
grapple our friends to us with chains
OF steel, SO that whatever comes Meth
er life nor death can tear them from
us. After all, no matter how heavy
the burden, how dark the sky, how fill
ed with foreboding the air, how AFT
righting the shadows:
All your troubles may find release
With a friend or two.

WHEN MOTHER CALLS.

When mother calls-you must come in,
And how that call through all the din
Amid the childhood memories high,
Is ringing still within your ears,
You thought it very awful then
To leave the game and leave the fun
And Just because your mother called
TO have to say goodbye and run.
When mother calls-Jou wish that nov
Her voice could CAL you as it did
Way back in that old dream somehow,
Amid the childhood memories hid.
You chafed because you thought it soon
70 have to come, twas early YETI
And so you left the game in tune
To some reluctant spell of fret.
When mother calls-so d lrerent seems
The memory of it now to you,
How beautiful she was in dreams
That decked her there in sun and dew.
But you were hateful, and at times
You closed your ears and winked your
eye,
And made believe you did not hear,
And made her stand and call and cry.
You wouldn't keep her waiting there
AS once you did. You'd hear her now
And leap TO fly along the air,
And lean to kiss her dear old brow,
When mother calls--ah, lads OF life
Don keep her waiting there to call!
Put down the tumult and the strife,
And 90 before the shadows fall!
When mother calls-come quick, come
sweet,
With smiling lips and dancing feet,
With all the childhood spirit true
To all the love she bears for you.
For some time, mid far on events,
You'Il be glad you beard her cry,
And had the love and had the sense
TO put your play and playmates by.
