A USEFUL ARTICLE.
What We Can Do With an Alarm
 Clock.

An old alarm clock may be used to perform a number of purposes around the house that will save you many steps and much bother. The Ameri- can Boy for September shows a num- Der of different methods of connect ing the clock for different uses.
 Perhaps the use to which an alarm clock is most often put, aside from the one for which 1t was designed, is in the home made thermostat or de- vice for turning on the drafts of either heater or stove at any desired time. In an arrangement of this kind, 2 weight attached by a chain to the dampers is released by a cord and lever connected with the Alarm Wind" key of the clock and thus is not the motor which actually does the work, but it is the agency which puts the machinery in motion at the proper time.
 Many other uses, amusing or help fuI, are based upon this principle. For example, suppose that the Lady of the house has an opportunity to take a little outing, of which she cannot avail herself because she has just put bread in the oven; by the same plan as that used in the thermostat she could enjoy herself in the certainty that the over door would be thrown open at the end of an hour, the drafts shut off aand the bread left to cool gradually and safely instead of being burned to a crisp.
 Perhaps you are going away for a days fishing and are doubtful about being back in time to feed the chick ems. To be sure that the poultry does not go to bed hungry, balance the pan of feed upon a shelf which is out of reach and from which it may be tipped at the proper time by the action of the alarm clock. Or if your dog wants to follow Snoh pXnaditjOl0 and you neither care for his company nor wish to keep him shut up all day, simply have a sliding door on his ken nel, which, by means of clock and weight, is opened after you are safely on your way.

TO SEND FUTURE
 RECRUITS IN PATCHES
Men Will be Sent to the Border a
 Score or More at a Time.

Commanding officers at stations to which recruits for the National Guard are sent for enlistment will hereafter send the recruits to their commands when batch of twenty or more has
 been secured, instead of waiting for larger number, as was formerly the plan, according to orders from head quarters of the department of the east at Governors Island. The order states
 that when twenty or more recruits
 have been equipped, the commanding
 officer will recommend to department
 headquarters a National Guard officer
 in the federal service on duty at the
 station in question to conduct recruits
 to the organization to which the lat
 ter may be assigned. If there is no such National Guard officer at the rendezvous, the commanding officer will recommend a non commissioned officer of the regular garrison for the above duty.
 I Captain Conner said he had received a letter from Captain George E. Cole | of the Signal troops to the effect that I at the border there was a particular 1 need of men technically trained such
 as electricians, and that therefore any | order from department headquarters ] which would facilitate the quick
 transportation of recruits to the bor- | der would be welcomed accordingly. l Warren D. Hoff of South Coventry
 was accepted for the regular army by l Sergeant M. M. Shores at the recduit- l ing office at No. 450 Asylum street at | Hartford. Hoff will go to Fort Slo- 1 cum Wednesday for enlistment and 1 will join the cavalry.

HOME FOR UNFoRTUNATEs.
Unhappy Girls Like Mary Baker Well comed to New England Rest Cot tage.

Referring to statements that there was no refuge for an unfortunate girl like the late Mary Baker, attention is directed to the New England cottage, Avon street, Providence, R. l., of which Capt. Charles T. Potter, of Norwich is a trustee. During the past twelve years this home has cared for 800 such unfortunates. It is endorsed by the Providence Chamber of Com merce.
 The superintendent of the Home in his report says:
 During the past twelve months, for ty-three girls and thirty-two little ones have been found in New England Rest Cottage, a comfortable home with pleasant surroundings. No board is asked, and no questions of denomin- ation or creed raised, but to all un- fortunate or fallen girls who desire to start life anew. there is always a loving welcome.
 The few rules of the home are sim pie, being based upon true Christian love, and here many precious hearts that have heretofore been cheerless and un1oved, feel for the first time the touch of human sympathy, changing the whole course of these deer young lives
 Does it pay? If you could see the change wrought in the lives of many of the girls, who, after having left the Home to occupy positions of trust and honor, return with happy faces and glad testimonies to the keeping power of God we believe you would find in them the best answer to your ques- tfon
