Take a bit of cotton batting the size of a hen's egg; dip it in kerosene. and place it on the floor of the clock in the corner. Shut the door and wait three or four days. Your clock \villbe like a. new one. it will skip beats no more: it wlll strike as of old, and when you look inside you will find the cot- icn black with dust. The fumes of the oil loosen the particles of dust and they fall, thus cleaning the clock.

Emperor William and King George Are In London this Month. The Kaiser is not the only monarch who is visiting London this month. King George of Greece is also the guest of King Edward at Sandringham. The King of Greece is an inveterate traveller and never allows a year to elapse without visiting some part of Europe. It is this roving tendency that almost led his Majesty to the. vicinity of the Russian guns at the time of the .‘orth Sea outrage, and has placed him in many difficult situations. He is the brother of Queen Alexandra and, like her, is very popular with his people, though at first he had to live down a great deal of prejudice against him, as the Greeks were not at all anxious to have this Danish Prince as their men- arch. Ills pluck carried him through the earlier years of his reign as it has through many other things. Notwith- standing the dangers and treachery with which he was surrounded. he has always upon going out unattended. almost cost him his life once at | l insisth This least. lie was walking in the vicinity of the palace. when the sharp challenge of a sentry rang out, “Who The King made no reply. Again the sentry's demand, “\Vln‘, goes there 1’ Answer or I'll fire. Still the King was silent. The next instant the silence was broken by the sharp crack of a rifle and King George felt a bullet plough lhrough the sleeve of his coat. Then to the terror of the sentry he made himself known. Next day he sent for the man, and coffi- plimenting him on the way he had done hi.- duty,.dccoraled the astonished scl- dici with the order of Redemption, given only for the greatest services. One cannot but wonder what would ,liilVC‘ happened to the sentry if that bul- ilr-i had ploughed the King's arm instead of his coat sir-eve.

Tact is a great thing. it should be cultivated by every girl who CODIGIII‘ plates entering the business field. if at first one finds a position not to her liking, she should not leave it in a huff. She may sometimes be glad to use the name of that firm as referei'ice. Endeavor when possible to merit the good will rather than the ill will of an employer. The girl entering the business field should strive to make herself valuable in whatever work she is engaged, even if the place is only temporary. The keynote of success in business is to find out how your employer desires his work done, then to do it as near as possible that way. Learn first of all not to obtrude your views or ideas unless they are asked for. if you are. a sicnngraphcr and find erors in grammar in the dictation which he». been given you, correct and re- arrange the sentences, but don't be so foolish as to call your employer's atten- tion to his mistakes. No man likes to be told by a mere slip of a girl that she has changed or cor- rected a mistake he made here and there in his dictation. This is a care where silence is indeed golden. Positions of trust. rarely come to those who are content to rest on their oars land wait for something to happen, but [rather to those who by constant effort tare preparing themselves for something better. “FREE INFORMATION." ‘ This is ‘.\l:fil on;- of the mac; [rm-UH.” (int llll'\'\'lt'lill.\ (“l 10â€"day says; That 011-“ illilll‘f‘, (if s‘.\it'l. spirits .[ lilllC. « n12 We of t'OilliAlllllll \'i~iu..5;._ and iuitl' t ill. of syrup (If I‘lllllmml ‘nJ.\eii lugvlln‘r and iukt-n in thaw”. 4.1} i jxunmru‘, «law‘s tiller ll‘t'fll< and :4! led.- tlinc in \uiiir \v§ll (‘llt‘Cl :i j'c'l‘llliilti'nl .' ll;~' Him»! lei-tv Ham's i._’ 2;.1.

WIllDLWINDS OF FIT-1E. (By a Banker). At times, when the upper atmosphere 27‘ charged with smoke-laden vapour, and the disc. of the sun. sharp and well defined, can be, observed without dis- comfort, a number of irregularly shaped nlack spots may be seen, some almost circular, some assuming fanciful shapes itscorpions. animals, treesâ€"(,r some like a flight of birds or an archipelago of islets. If these spots are examined Ehrough a telescope of moderate power they appear to be great rents in the luminous photosphore, cleft deep down into the interior, and surrounded in many cases by a sort of willow leaf pat: tern which occasionally shoots out pro- ;eclions bridging over the dark cavity beneath. (This extreme blackness of tho :hasm is, however, only relative. for Sir \V'. Herschel] proved that a brilliant jet if oxyhydrogcn lime light projected bo- ,’ore a spot. itself appeared as a black llama, the black spot, therefore, being in- finitely brighter than the most brilliant light we could produce). The size of some of these sun-chasms \- prodigious. ranging up to a computed area of no less than twenty-five thou- sand million square miles! Our earth, f‘ullt’d into this tremendous abyss, would “to no larger. comparatively, than, for instance, a small boulder in thc craler of a volcano. Observed 'with the aid of one of the modern giant telescopes these yawning gulls are found to be accompanied in <0an causes (perhaps invariably) by icr- rible cyclones; roaring hurricanes of tire; spiral tornadoes of blazing incan- descent gases, gyraiing round and round in throes and spasms of convulsive en- ergy; now a fiery whirlpool, a cataract rf surging, rotating wildfire: now an outburst of vivid, dazzling transplant- dency. a very whirlpool of swirling flames; or now a fire-shaft of meteoric splendour, pulsating from the glowing side of the abysm half-way across the black gulf, where for a short. time it re- mains, a palpitating and throbbing jet of fire. (This latter phenomenon some years ago caused a temporary distur- bance of the telegraphs throughout. the world. It was therefore probably a solar electric disturbance). And so the mighty turmoil goes on, day after day, until gradually the fiery photospherc of the sun assumes its normal conditions, and the gaping chasm, rent in iLs sur- face, at length disappears from view. And yet. this stupendous orh is but. one of untold myriads of similar suns. many of them of a magnitude far exceeding our own sun, which. compared with some of the giants of creationâ€"as Sirius (.r Arcturusâ€"is but an insignificant, diminutive, star. And yet the august, Creator of all this serried army of mighty suns was content to leave for a time His Throne in the Heaven of hea- vens ’for we are expressly told that. the Almighty made the worlds by His; Son). in order. by becoming man‘s Substitute, and receiving Himself the punishment due to Eternal Justice on his behalf. to open the gates of the Kingdom of lien- ven to all who, notwithstanding their forfeiture, by sin, of all right of entry to that Kingdom, will accept that propi- liation. .__,(...._._ LEFT ON HIS HANDS. t'iabbie: “That's a queer sort of ring far you to be wearing.
