How Watch Cases are Made.
A plato of solid gold 14 2-10 karats
fine is soldered on each side of a jdate of
hard nickel conipobitlon metal, and the
three aro then jiassed between polished
steel rollers. From this plate tho various
parts of the cases backs, centers, bezels,etc.
aro cut and shaped by dies nnd formers.
Tho gold is thick enough to admit of all
kinds of chasing, engraving, and engine
turning. The composition metal gives it
needed strength, stiffness and solidity, while
tho written guarantco of tho manufacturers
warranting each caso to wear Ucnty years
proves that it contains all tho gold that
can possibly bo needed. This guarantco
is given from actual results, as many of
these cases have been worn perfectly smooth
by years of ute without wearing through
tho gold. DunuQUT, Ia., Doo. H, 1S80.

Young Heedless goes to school

At homo ho loves to play at ball
When ho can find his bat.
Of mittens, one Is gone j
Of rubbers, two more ! ,
And on tho very coldestday
Ho never shuts tho door.
Tho hammer's always lost :
Tho saw left on the ground j
And when he wants his button-libok
It never can bo found.

He looses all the change ho had,
And brings you mutton chop.
For all theso careless things,

SELECT STORY.
APPLE 11L0SS0MS.
It was a rare, impressivo Bcenc, and
Ernc8t Lyslc, wlio was nt oil times an
ardunt admirer of nature, passed in
voluntary in a rapid walk through tho
bloasora-strcwn orchard, and leaning
idly against the gnarled trunk of in
grand old apple tree, silently contem
plated the pcacoful country scene. Tho
glorious nun was just sinking to rest
amid all tho gorgeous splendor of
crimson, amber aud gold. Another
moment and it had sunk from sight
behind tho distant hilltops, leaving
only a broad band of gold along
tho horizon, which slowly faded as tho
witching summer twilight approached.
Ho was a perfect specimen of man
hood, this only son of tho aristocratic
old banker whoso imposing country
rcsidenco was but a quarter of a milo
distant, and few could havo helped ad
miring his manly beauty certainly
not sweet little Kitty'Elton, who was
his promised bride, and of whom ho
was tenderly thinking as ho stood thero
in her father's orchard, with his eyes
fixed dreamily upou tho long, low farm
house whore he believed his darling
was at this instant awaiting his com-'
ing.
A shower of apple blossoms coming
down on his baro head abruptly
aroused him from his roverio. Ho
glanced up cpjickly to discover his lit
tlo sweetheart perchocV liko a bird upon
ono of tho swavinc; limbs and almost
concealed by tho fragrant blossoms.
"liook-a-bve, baby, upon tho tree-
top," floated down to him in sweet,
silvery tones, while a second shower of
blossoms descended beside him. to bo
followed a moment later by something
moro substantial in the shapo of Kitty
horselt, who swept mm a mockinir ut
ile curtsey as she landed lichtlv besido
im.
"Kitty !" It was tho only word
that Ernest spoke, but the tone in
which he said it contained n world of
reproach.
"Woll, sir?"
"My darling, why will you not try
to bo moro womanly, more dignified 1
You know this is the only subject of
dispute between us, the only drawback
to our happiness. Really, Kitty, you
aro, to speak plainly, a veritable tom
boy r
Kitty's bluo eyes (lashed, and she
row her slender form to Us full
eight.
"lliauk you sir, sho said, in a tono
f finest irony. "Mr. Lyslo is pleased
to bo exceedingly complimentary.'1
"Don t bo angry with me, little one,
her lover pleaded in softened tones, at
tempting to pass liis arm around her
tiny waist.
Isut Kitty's undo had been sorely
wounded, and sho drew quickly away.
?or a moment an embarrassing silence
fell between them, which Kitty was
tho first to break.
"We will go up to the house, if you
please, Mr. Lyslo. It is growing
quite chilly, and oven a tomboy may
bo possessed of a capacity for feeling
the cold."
Ernest scarcely reooguizod tho cold,
sarcastic tones as belonging to his gen
tle uttlo lovo. They had been be
trothed but six weeks, and Kitty was
passionately fond of her handsome,
haughty lover ; but, as ho had remark
ed, Uer Baucy nuliilorenco to tho rules
of etiquette had been a constant sourco
of'disputo between thorn.
lvitty was possessed of a sweet, for
giving disposition, but, alio argued,
Ernest had gono too far in presuming
iu uxprcss ins tiiBapprovni 01 ncr Biignt
fault so plainly, and she resolved at
that moment to punish him when an
opportunity presented itself, and to
make her victory moro complete, sho
would use his own weapons in doing
so.
The short distance to tho farm houso
was passed over in silence. Arrived
at tho great, old-fashioned porch, Er
nest was warmly welcomed by Mr.
Elton, aud cordially invited in
to the tidy sitting room, whoro Mrs.
Elton was busily knitting bv tho dim
light Irom tho hugo log lire, for, as
Kitty had remarked, though early
summer, tho evenings wero chilly
Btlll.
Tho evening passed quickly, as all
evenings aro wont to do at Elton
1 arm, and as truest rose to tako Ins
leave Kitty accompanied him to tho
outer door.
Kitty had by no means abandoned
her determination to teach Ernest a
lesson, and had already concocted
plan for doing so,
Although Ernest would no'vor havo
admitted tho fact even to himself,
certain it was that tho same defiant
disregard of tho established lulesof
society lo which he, all his life, had
been accustomed, had oapturod first
his fancy, then his heart by its refresh
ing originality.
A month later Ernest was obliged
to leavo woeienviiio to transact some
important business for his father, who
had been seriously 111 nnd was not yet
BUincicniiy recovered to admit ot trav
eling business which would necess
tato an nbsonco of several months.
bomehow, lvitty did not appear ns
depressed ai Ernest had expected
when ho communicated to her tho fact
of his approaching journoy. Ho had
anticipated some sudden outburst of
grief, or nt least somo expression of re
grot on tho part of his impulsive littlo
sweetheart, at tho prospect of so long a
separation, but instead sho enthusias
tically replied, after a momont of silent
surprise :
"How fortunate, mamma has decided
lo solid inn to tho Heaslioro with Aunt
Lydia Crculoigh you havo met her, I
believe and nraid tho change of scent)
wo Bhall neither ot us find an opportu
nity to miss the other. Auntie nnd I
shall remain nt Crescent Beach until
tho 1st of Seiitcmbor, and mamma has
decided that I may accept her invita

for tho winter. I think you mentioned
that your family return to tho city in
October, and ns yon will arrive n
month later, you can call upou mo at
Mr. 's, 1' ilth avenue."
"So you are to pass the winter in
that city 1" This was Bald rather so
berly, for Ernest was woll aware that
Kitty's frcBh, blondo beauty, so differ
ent from that of our faded city belles
whb had been "out" four or fivo sea
sons would nt onco crcato a furor in
the select society in which Miss Grcn
leigh moved. "However," brighten
ing suddenly nt tho thought of how all
tho gentlemen in his set would envy
him tho possession of his now beauty,
'fl don't think I object to that arrange
ment, si tioc it will afford mo an oppor
tunity of. seeing you inuoh more fro:
quontly than I could havo dono had
you remained at Elton Farm."
A merry twinkle onnio into his lis
tener's mischovious bluo eyes, as, with
a pretty assumption, sho replied :
"Yes, your highness, tho fates will
ing, the Bimplo country lass is to mako
her entree in the cremc do la crcmo of
Now York society in precisely four
months from date. And, Ernest, I am
going to try awfully hard to acquire
that dignity and caso of manner which
you bo much admire, if this diminutive
figure" with a glanco at her very
slender and girlish proportion "will
admit of my being dignified."
"Thank you, darling," Ernest re
plied in pleased surprise. "The knowl
edge of that fact will almost reconcile
mo to the long separation from you,
and, Kitty, a slight reserve of manner
and some doferenco to tho requirements
of society are all that aro necessary to
mako my littlo sweetheart simply perfect."
The days and weeks rolled by until
four months had passed and the busi
ness which took Ernest to' England
was about done.
Only two months more and then for
homo and Kitty. Ho pictured to him-
self her rapturous surprise when they
should meet for ho had decided not
to writo to ber tho precise date upon
which he should arrive, it would bo so
pleasant to seo hor rush eagerly for
ward to greet him ns she used to do
when ho appeared unexpectedly at El
ton Farm, and exclaim, with her pret
ty features all alight with glad sur
prise : "Oh, Ernest I am so glad you
aro conio 1" and then would follow a
sly littlo confession of how awfully
lonely she had been without him. Ho
had been wont to receivo these impul
sivo littlo advances rather coldly then,
but absence had taught him to prize
his little sweetheart as sho deserved,
aud tho thought of tho warm welcome
which awaited him upon his return to
her was very sweet indeed. His busi
ness was completed a week earlier than
ho anticipated, and one morning lato
in October ho took passage for New
York. Tho voyage seemed intermina
ble, but it was ended at last, and Er
nest could have shouted for joy as he
sprang upou the pier and glanced
about him. As his arrival was unex
pected no one was there to meet him,
so calling a cab, ho was driven at onco
to his father's city resideuce. After ho
had been waruilv welcomed by his
father, tenderly kissed and caressed by
his mother and sister, and tbo thou
sand and one questions asked and an
swered, ho was informed that tho fam

Only for nn instant, however, then
thoy wero quietly withdrawn and their

paused at that instant besido her. Six

she wore fitted her charming form to

Ernest drow his breath hard with re

uer Bino. tior manner wus simply per

preoiso society tone, as sho turned
leisurely toward him nnd languidly ex

That was all ; with n smiling nod of
dismissal bIio turned to greet a new ar
rival who had been impatiently await

Ernest could scarcely credit tho ovi

Btard at his betrothed in ill bred
amazement, then, recollecting himself,
ho turned silently away. Kitty was
unmistakably tho belle of the ball, and
tho evening was very far advanced bo
foro bo again found an opportunity to

for a moment at last, ho mado his way
rapidly to her side She was looking

with a slight smilo nnd mado room for

"Not hero, Kitty," ho said, bonding
lovingly over her. "Do not forget

answered, entirely ignoring his first

Tho look ot pain and reproach in,
her lover's tendor brown oyes catrio
dangerously near sweeping away tho
last remnant ot Kitty s reserve, but by
supremo eilort stio managed to meet
his glances calmly. Fortunately far
her, a burst of wattz music trembled
through the rooms, at that instant, nnd
Ernest's next question prevented a re
ply to the tormor one.
Kitty, ' he whispered, soltly, "aro
you sufficiently rested to givo mo tins
waltz ( it is tho last ono on the or

Kitty aroso without a word, and n
moment later was being whirled away,
clasped oloso to her lover's breast.
Down the long room they tloated, and
vory oyo in tho vast assembly was
turned admiringly upon them. Ernest
was conscious ot a halt-insano wish
that the waltz might last forever, for
Kitty's oyes wero gaziug np into his
own witli tho old familiar love light in
their clear depths, and tho old winning
smile played about her coral lips, Hut
with tho waltz all this ended, aud dur
ing tho remainder of tho evening she
was tho perfect, languid society belle

truest remained uuohangod during tho
whole of the gay season which follow
ed, notwithstanding his earnest efforts
to draw her into somo of tho old, half
saucy, impulsive ways. Ho could not
penly complain, tor hor deraoanor to
him was polite aud gracious nlwnys,
but no manwuvring on his part could
disturb her graceful oase and languid
repose of manner.- Then, too, there
wns about her a certain undetinable
dignity which eventually checked
every approach toward love-liko demon
strations. If he had longed ifor a wo
manliness and dignity on tho part of
his afiiauoed, he had it uow with a ven
geance. Ho was sincerely glad when
her visit was ended and he was per
mitted to accompany her back to Elton
arm. Almost unconsciously ho had
cherished a vague hopo that, onco re
moved from Now York sooiety, Kitty
would tall into her tormer impulsive
ways, but two or threo visits to thelarm
convinced him that ho had been foster
ing a vain hope.
It was a balmy, moonlight oveuing

that Kitty's lovo for him had changed

Dropped in the Wrong Yard.
f A New York cat in pursuit of cream
got so far into the cream jug that
when hor nppctito was satisfied her
head rofusetl to como out of tlio jug.
Thereupon pussy began to howl nnd
bang tho cream pitcher around in n
wny that threatened destruction to the
china and nearly scared tho cook into
hysterics. Tho groom investigated the
cat's queer froakB nnd in trying to pull
the jug off tho cat's head or the cat's
head out tho jug got badly scratched,
lost his temper and dropped tho jugged
cat into tho nearest neighbor's yard.
Now-this was simply a protective
measure and ono which tho kindest
hearted man in tho world might havo
been induced to employ undor similar
oiroumstances. It certainly didn't in
dicato nny intentional cruelty to ani
mals. On tho contrary, if there wns
nny cruelty practiced in tho case it wns
by tho cat in scratching its would-be
benefactor. That oven n saint, who
was trying to rcleaso n cat from a
croam'pitcher and got scratched for
his pains, would drop tho cat ndmits of
no dispute. In his hurry ho would
hardly bo likely oven to look for a soft
place for tho ungrateful animal to
alight in. If n gentleman nnd n mem

Not so thought the man into whose
yard tho cat happened to alight. His
namo is Henry Hergh and ho is tho
president of the Society for tho Pre
vention of Cruelty to Animals. By
tho aid of a can-opener the cat was re
leased from tho pitcher, and Mr.
Bergh proceeded to scotiro tho arrest
of tho parti-colored party who had
dropped the combination of cat and
pitcher into his yard. In vain the mu
latto pleaded that he boro tho cat uo
malico and that bo did not place tho
plloher on tho cat's head. Bergh was
bound that the cAl should have justice
or ho would know the reason why, and
the utifortuuato cat-dropper was held
in 8300 bail for trial for his alleged
cruelty to pussy. Ho will not drop

Treating.
Tho greatest crime in this country

crime is the habit of treating, ft

ed to foster vice aud bring ruin upon
thousands of young men. It is a tact
which all will admit that tho treating
is nlways to something which we would
bo better off without. You never hearof
any one offering to treat a friend to
a suit of clothes, or something of that
kind. When thero is treating to bo
done, it is to something that is injuri
ousnot beneficial. Tho habit not
only leads many a young man into vic

or they wish a drink or a cigar, and
finding some person to tnko ono with

tho fact that when a paity gets togeth
