I'm finding markets for all these

that they cannot diversity on

"ALARM" THAT Is NOlSELESS
Yet the Invention May Be Relied
Upon to Awaken Even tho
SounGest Sleeper.

Alarm watches that signal the time
for which they are set by shrill ring
ing are common, but "noiseless"
alarm watch which accomplishes the
same result is entirely new.
The story has been told Of married
man who possessed ringing alarm
watch and who, with his wife, was
awakened every morning by the silvery
tinkle Of the watch under his pillow.
II took this mans wife FIVE years, so
the story goes, to discover that the
alarm watch and not the neighbors 8
alarm clock was really awakening her
every morning. The noiseless alarm
watch, however, performs its early
morning task differently. The noise
less alarm consists OF cord which
tightens about the wrist, the pressure
gradually increasing until released by
the wearer of the watch This is ac-
complished by pushing a small slide
and twisting the stem of the watch a

WOMEN AS TRUSTEES.

Inc senate bill to propose a
constitutional amendment to
permit women to serve on
school board and boards of pub
lie libraries and as notaries
public is a measure which
should have unanimous sup
port. Admitting that it is a
step toward universal suffrage
in this state, we see no danger
to the good of the government
from having a few, pure, high
minded, courageous women to
act in places of trust and re-
sponsibility of this kind.
The schools come close to the
homes and the homes are and
must ever be the fundamental
of our civilization. If our wom-
en- are good enough to conduct
the affairs of our homes, we see
no objection to their managing
in part the affairs of our schools
and confidentially we believe
that the schools would fare bet
ter under the jealous care and
alert supervision of the good
women of any community, in
cooperation of course with the
men who are capable and will
ing to act in similar capacity.
The responsibilities of notar-
les are not such as preclude
women from being capable. In
many Offices, no doubt, the
women employees now discharge
all of the work of preparing
papers for attestation, and do
every thing except the mechan-
ical work of affiXing the no.
tarial seal. This delicate atten-
ton IS left to man. Give wom-
an the right to be notary pub
lie and there will never be any
discussion of its propriety.
We believe that there are
many school communities that
would not only suffer no in
convenience or lack of efficien-
cy from having women on the
school boards, but really would
profit by a change. Women as
class are better acquainted
with educational technicalities
and educational needs than are
men.
At any rate it is high time
that women is being given her
liberation from the bondage of
lares ct penates, from the SER
vitude of wash-pots and the
skillets, and given an opportuni-
ty to take a more active part in
the great, big, material world
which needs woman's refining
influence and the inspiration of
her ideals more than woman
needs the unfolding influence
upon mind and soul which SER
vice for the public good would
give her.-Columbia Record.
