Fraudulent Old Clocks.

The brass lantern clocks Of the six
teenth and seventeenth centuries have
made a strong appeal to collectors.
and this fact has led to the manufac-
ture Of replicas Of the old clocks.
When these are sold frankly as rep
licss. there IL nothing to be said
against such q practice; but. unfor-
tunately. the matter does not stop here
and too often the attempt IL made to
palm on an Imitation as q genuine
old clock. Famous makers names are
added and various expedients adopted
to make the new clock pass muster ~
an old one. Such frauds are deplora-
BILE from every point Of view, and the
ignorance Of many collectors makes
success possible. Every one. Il is OBJ
vious. cannot possess q genuine old
clock. Il would be well II this fact
wire faced. and the clocks bought
simply as reproductions. by all those
who are not in q position to make
reasonably sure that they are really
purchasing q genuine old English
clock.-Christian Science Monitor.

GOT MESSAGE FROM LIGHT
Famous Man Of Letters Tells Of Pc
cullsr Effect Simple Happening
Had on sehoolboy.

A friend of mine-an old painter,
who went TO school In the north OF
Scotland-describe to me his expert
ence. The dominic had one morning
been particularly drastic In his meth
DDS, and this led to great concentra-
ton Of thought among the pupils,
while at the same time II did not In
the least alter the usual current OF
their ideas. My friend, for instance,
busled himself as usual, observing
form and color. only with keener
zest and. as l have said. q more con-
centrated purpose. II was spring
morning, and, for the first time that
year, a ray OF sunshine came into the
room. making a square Of yellow light
on the dusty hoor at his feet. II was
only at that particular period Of the
year such a thing was possible; later
on there would be too many leaves on
the trees. and In winter the sun was
not In that quarter of the heavens. My
friend was an unhappy and anxious
schoolboy, but the events Of that morn
ing and the menaces OF the dominic,
combined with the sudden sunlight at
his feet. made new boy Of him, and
he looked at the square of brightness
which stirred his heart. He received.
as It were. his mystical message; and
some time afterward, leaving school,
he became a landscape painter.-John
Butler Yeats.

More Than q Sign Post.

There was once q detective story
written whose point lay In the manner
In which a very familiar figure may
escape observation. In the tale several
persons swore no one had entered
a certain building during certain
space Of time. Afterward II was
proved that the postman had visited
the place at his accustomed time, but
long habit had rendered him psyche
logically invisible to the witnesses.
So It Is with the familiar figures
upon our streets. How many times a
day We may pass by the traffic cop,
without perhaps realizing that he Is
something more than an animated sign
post. until some act Of courtesy awak-
ems US to the fact that "cop" is sim.
ply a man. and a gentleman at that.
For In spite Of the many aggravatlons
that must come during a day Of direct
ing traffic, most Of these officers re-
tain their good temper, and even 20
out Of their way to assist or direct
some passer-by.-0maha World Her

FATIGUE CAUSE OF DISEASE
That Fact Being Admitted, u Follow
That the Best Of All Cures
10 Rest.

From time to time somebody pro
poses the rest cure" for all malndies,
and for time we hear great deal
Of II. Then the subject Is dropped,
and little appears In the public prints
concerning Its value. But invariably
II comes up again. and the rest cure"
IL advocated for all manner Of all
ments.
Just why we should not go ahead
and accept II as a fact that the best
treatment for most diseases Is rest. we
do not know. II Is well settled In
science us anything pertaining to dis.
eases that absolute rest is Of the
greatest benefit; that most diseases
are the actual result Of fatigue OF one
kind or another. The human body Is
able TO take care OF Itself when II Is
not tired; II cannot take care of Itself
when IL Is overworked, no matter how
many drugs are poured into II.
There is q splendid work to be done
BY the physicians In the matter Of
teaching the people how to rest. Not
one person In a hundred understands
IT, Unless the average person actu-
ally feels fatigued, he doesn't realize
that his body is tired-or that his
mind and nervous system are crying
for rest. The average person doesn't
know there is anything the matter with
him unless he feels pain. and yet there
arc many maladies that are not accom-
panied by pain.

Life at best pays back rather limit
ed dividends, and knowing this, we
should as we journey along times
thoroughfares. try, whenever the op-
portunity offers. to bring a smile TO
tired lips. Even though we must re-
sort to a bit Of blarney" II we would
accomplish this happy result, we Ger.
tainly should do so. Such a course
may displease the person who prides
herself on calling a spade a spade
every time, but folks who approve OF
toning down, as It were. the sharp
edges Of life. viii feel no twlnges Of
conscience for playing such a role, for

Water for House Plants.

Water is essential to the life OF
plants, whether they be In the open
ground or In pots, for only in the form
Of solutions In water can the roots
suck up the juices OF the earth, and
II Is the water circulating through the
channels Of the trunk and branches
that permits the exchanges between
the leaves and the rest OF the yege-
table.
Plants In a house should not be
watered at regular stated intervals /;
do the plants out-of-doors receive rain
on Tuesdays and Saturdaysi They
should be watered whenever they need
II. This is the only safe rule. And
we can tell when they need It by feel
ing the earth In which they are grow
ing; so long as this feels moist the
plants do not need water
