It consists of a large glass dial, similar to that of any ordinary clock, with bronze hands. There are no works—at least none that can be perceived—and a card attached states that it is not run by a magnet, by electricity or clock-works,and yet it runs and keeps correct time. Across the face is the question in large type “What Makes it Run?” and that's what everybody who has seen it would like to know, we suppose, so we will just drop the hint that the works and spring that make it go are concealed in the minute hand. ee A APA ee. —Y.
