Since clocks are to be turned back on
October 27, it is remarked by a clock
fixer that such action will damage any
clock that strikes, That is true, if the
cloek is not turned back by iastallments
and carefully. His recommendation is
to stop the clock for one hour, which
will be a very good way if you have a
watch at the same time to be governed
by.

They tell lots of tales on the editors.
but this is new one: The editor of a
Kansas paper went to attend a party
given by one of his neighbors, where
just a few weeks before the home had
been blessed with a new baby. The
hostess met him at the door and after
the usual salutation, he asked after the
baby’s health. The lady was hard of
hearing, had a bad cold, and, thinking
he was asking abou} Herself, answered
that although she usually had one every
Winter, this was the worst one she ever
had, It kept her awake at night a great
deal, and at first confined her to her bed.
Then noticing that the editor was acting
very strangely, she said she could tell by
his looks and actions that he was going
to have one just like hers, and she asked
him to come in out of the draft and sit
down.
