The Exeter Times, 1919-7-24, Page 7Keeping Time
By Chas. Zi.• Smith.
I have questioned marry farmers as
to the kind of time they keep. One
will say: "I keep sun time—it's about
twenty-three minutes faster than
standard time except' that our clock
gains soulo.' Another says "Well, I
try to keep sun time. I set my clack
thirty minutes faster than the depot
clock. My clock loses a little
though." And another answers:
try to keep my clock about three-quar-
ters.of an hour faster than standard
time so I won't be late for the train.
My clock gains when it's just wound
up and loses when it's running down."
Just as I was about to conclude that
farmers must own every poor old clock
',e world I rejoiced to bear a man
answer: "I keep correct standard
time: and my watch rind clocks are
good time -keepers, too," • And I said
to Myself: "That 'farmer is a good
business man."
The entire business world runs on
standard time—except farmers. The
trains, boats, interurbans all run on
standard time. The rest of the busi-
ness world goes to work and closes up
shop on standard time, whether it is
Eastern, Central, Mountain -or Pacific
standard time. , This is eight and
proper—the way it should be. It is
difficult to imagine the confusion that
would result if each industry should
adopt a different time. . '
Because farmers persist in keeping
their own special brand of time they
are constantly figuring out the dif-
ference between their watches and the
watches that govern the rest of the
business world, "Let's see," one man
says, studying his watch; "it's now
seventeen minutes past nine. The
train leaves at twenty-two minutes
past ten. I have a little more than an
hour;—and my watch is little better
than half an hour fast, That gives me
a little more than elf hour and a hAlg,
Whereas if he had correct standard
time—and it's easier to have standard
time than any other kind of time—he
would glance at his watch and say:
"Nine seventeen—have exactly an
hour and five minutes"' to catch thy
train."
I have never been able to under-
stand the logic in the farmers' reason-
ing regarding time. Why not keep
correct standard time and then know
exactly what time it is, instead of us -
your watch as a basis for guessing
Alit? I have known of farmers actual-
ly waiting two hours for a train be-
cause their "watch was a little fast."
New that "daylight saving" law is
in force, it is even more important
that you keep the right time If you
would avoid needless confusion. Go
to work and quit any hour of the day
you please, but keep correct time. If
`your watches and clocks do not keep
good time, have them put in shape so
that they will. Then set them exactly
with standard time and get in step
with the rest of the world. r
THE SECRET OF NAIL -DRIVING.
An Excellent Illustration of the Phil-
osophy of Success. -
In the first place, there is really no
secret about driving a nail. The only
thing to do, is to be sure you hit it on
the head every time. And if you do,
the nail is driven!
And yet, simple as this operation is,
there is probably not one person in ten
who can drive a nail straight, or who
doesn't miss it about half the time at
the first attempt.
The way to drive a nail is to keep
your eye absolutely on the head. It
is impossible to watch the hammer
and the head at the same time, so the
hand does what the eye tells the brain
to think. And if the eye keeps saying:
"On the head—on the head"—on the.
head—" then the nail is going to go in
straight.
Nail -driving is one of the finest il-
lustrations of the philosophy of suc-
cess. Center your eye, your heart and
your brain on the thing you desire to
achieve, and if you concentrate
enough and muster faith sufficient,
you cannot help but succeed. Hit the
nail on the head.
To a carpenter, nail -driving is such
second nature, that about two swings
oY his hammer places an ordinary,nall
in its nest. But, you see, a carpenter's
success depends upon his ability to hit
he nail on the head. If he kept knock -
them sidewise or missing them,
his buildings wouldn't go up.
No matter how simple the task at
hand, do it efficiently—do it better
than it has ever been done before—
and you will be surprised at the rapidi-
ty with which you cut down the length
of time necessary to do things.
Center your eye, your heart, your
head, on the thing you want to see
done—and you will do it!
Drive the nail with your eye!

KEEPERLESS LIGHTHOUSE.
Near the Isle of Guernsey, Scene of
Hugo's "Toilers of the Sea."
The first unattended rock lighthouse
with a powerful fog .signal is the re-
cently completed Platte Fougere light-
house, marking the entrance to Rus-
sell channel leading to St. Peters Port,
Guernsey, a spot which figures in Vic-
tor Hugo's romance, "The Toilers of
the Sea."
The lighthouse contains many in-
genious electrical devices, controlled
from the shore by a submarine cable
nearly a mile and a half long. By its
aid the foghorn and siren are 'regular-
ly blown—they have been heard thirty
miles away bathe French coast—while
the current it carries also controls the
-light in the lantern.
It is proposed to use this type of
automatic lighthouse for illuminating
Hudson Bay and Hudson Straits in
connection with the opening of these
waters and the carriage of wheat by
the new railway to Fort Churchill. A
proposal to establish similar lights on
the more e,Tosed and barren coasts
of South America has also been con-
sidered.
The automobile horn was adopted
in this country in 1900 to substitute
whistles, bells, gongs, etc.
By adding .50 per cent. coal oil to
the waste oil drained out of the en-
gi e, a very efficient mixture is ob-
ta'ned for the use on springs, which
will keep them in the finest condition.

Through the New Blood Dr.Wil-
liamis; Pink Pills Actually
Make,
No mother should allow nervous
weakness to get the upper hand of
her. If she does worry will mar her
work in the home and torment her in
body and mind. Day after day spent
amid the same surroundings is
' enough to cause fretfulness and de-
pression. But there are other causes,
as every mother know, that tend to
make her nerves 'run down. A change
would benefit her .jaded system, and
rest might improve her blood so as
to give the nerves abetter tone. But
rest and change are often impossible,
and it is` then that all worn out wo-
men should take a short treatment
with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills,,,'whtch
make new blood, rich with the ele-
ments on which the nerves thrive.
In this way these pills restore regu-
lar health, increased energy, new am-
bition and steady nerve. There is a
lesson for other women in the case
of Mrs. Harry P. Snider, Wilton, Ont,,
who says:—"Five years ago my. twin
babies were born, and I was left very
weak and very miserable, hardly fit
to do anything. The doctor gave me
medicine, but it did not help me.
Then I tried another doctor, but with
no better results. One day I went'
home to my mother, telling her how
miserable I felt, and that the doctor's
medne had not done me any good.
Mother asked me why I did not try
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and as I
was glad to try anything that might
help me, I got three boxes when I
went back home. By the time these
were used .there 'was no doubt they
were helping me, and I got three
more boxes: But I did not need them
all, for by the time the fifth box was
used, I was entirely cured, and never
felt better in my life. Now when I
hear people, talk about feeling weak
or miserable I always recommend Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills, and tell what
they did for lice, and in similar cases
I shall continue to recommend them."
At the first sign that the blood is
out of order take Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills, and .note the speedy improve-
ment they make in the appetite, health
and spirits. You .can get these pills
through any medicine dealer or by
mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for
$2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medi-
cine.Co., Brockville, Ont.
MOONS OF PLANETARY SYSTEM.
The origin of moons is one of the
mysteries of astronomy. If, as some
star -gazers assert, our lunar orb was
thrown off from the earth when the
latter was a molten, fiery mass—the
Pacific ocean being the hole left by its
departure—we have a special right to
feel a proprietary interest in it.
,On the other hand, the two little.
moons that revolve about Mars like
golden shuttles are strongly suspected
to be'asteroids (minor planets), cap-
tured out of space. The larger of them,
Phobos, only sixty miles in diameter,
is much smaller than many of the
known asteroids.
We are rather poorly off for moons.
Saturn has eight, the biggest of them,.
Titan, being nearly twice the size of
our orb of night; and Jupiter posses-
ses four, the largest of which, Gany-
mede, is greatest of all moons in our
planetary system, having a diameter
of 3,430 miles,
At least two or three of Jupiter's
moons are still hot, as proved by the
fact that they give out some light of
their own. It is very interesting to
watch, through a telescope, the shad-
ows thrown upon that giant planet
by its moons, observation of the eclip-
ses of which furnished the first data
for estimating the velocity of light.
Uranus has four little moons, which,
oddly enough, rise in the north and set
in the south. Neptune possesses only
one, rather diminutive, which traver-
ses the sky from southwest to north-
east.
The most remarkable 'guess on re-
cord- had to do with moons. Dean
Swift, a century before the moons of
Mars were discovered, made Gulliver
say of the astronomers of Laputa:
"They have found two satellites which
revolve about Mars, whereof the in-
nermost is distant .from the planet
exactly three diameters of the planet.
The former 'revolves in the space of
ten hours and the latter in twenty-
one and a half hours."
As a matter of fact, the inner moon

Peace.
This morning with the whistles ringing
Shrill,
Bells peeling loud with glee,
From out the darkness stole a wills-
per sweet,
Peace, peace to thee!
The nations from their Calvary have
passed,
And lo! on earth the morning breaks
at last.
Peace! Peace! How often have I
heard thy voice
In solicitude's release;
The peace of woods, of fields, of hill,
of vale;
Yet more than these;
For there amid the darkness, seems
to me,
That we have caught the purport of
thy plea.
The right to strive, though fail, to rise
again,
And thus, with courage strong,
To hold 'for them a purer heritage
In days to come;
Friend of the weak, balm of the
wearied heart;
?lh! this is worthy of a conqueror's
part,
'To know above the 'fields "where pop-
pies blow,"
Their spirits glad and free;
That they have won e'en sweeter
dwelling place
Than this could be;
That they have found the rainbow in
the skies,
And gained the light reflected in our
eyes.
To find a strengthened faith in powers
of good—
Humanitys deep song;
To know that thus e'er reigns eternal
love
Above the wrong. r
And, though the darkness cloud earth's
• fairest things,
We still may find the healing of Thy
, wings.
To find within the morning all we've
lost,
The suffering soul's surcease;
To find at dawn of day an ampler life;
Yea, this is peace.

July—the month of oppressive heat;
red hot days and sweltering nights, is
extremely hard on little ones. Diarr-
hoea, dysentery, colic and cholera in-
fantum carry off thousands of precious
little lives every summer. The mother
must be constantly on her guard to -
prevent these troubles, or if they come
on suddenly to fight them. No other
medicine is of such aid to mothers
during the hot summer as is Baby's
Own Tablets. They regulate the
bowels and stomach, and an • occasion-
al dose given to the well child will
prevent summer complaint, or if the
trouble does come suddenly will
banish it. The Tablets are sold by
medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cts.

Love met a worldling on the way,
And softly crept into his breast;
Straight self and greed refused to stay
Where love had dared to build a
nest.
Into a grim and cheerless home
Love forced his way through bar-
riers tall,
Fled wretchedness and chill and
gloom—
The golden sunshine flooded all.

Some War Facts and Figures.
These are some of the amazing
facts in Sir Douglas Haig's final des-
patch:—
General
es-
patch:—General Headquarters received 9,-
000 telegrams in one day, and '3,400
letters by despatch -riders. One army
headquarters had 10,000 telegrams in
a day, and the daily telegrams on the
lines of communication were 23,000.
There were 1,500 miles of tele-
graphs and telephones, and 3,688
miles of railways, on which 1,800
trains ran weekly.
In six weeks 5,000,000 rations were
supplied, by our armies in France, to
800,000 civilians in the relieved areas.
The total daily ration strength of
our armies was 2,700,000. An addition
of one ounce to each man's ration re-
presented an extra 75 toes.
Over 400,000 horses and mules and
40,100 motor' ve ides were used, and
4,500 miles of road made or main-
tained,,
In 1914 there was one machine gun
to 500 infantrymen iii the British
army, at the armistice there was one
machine gun to 20 'infantrymen.
Over 700,000 tons of ammunition
were fired by our artillery on the
western front from last August to the
armistice,
The number of individual landings.
at the ports managed by the British
armies in France exceeded 10,000,000
up to the armistice, while in the last
eleven months of •the war the average
weekly tonnege landed et taa.:,1 pre t i
was 176,000 tons.
The report submitted at the An-
nual Meeting of the Home Bank of
Canada intimated that the Bank had
enjoyed the most successful year in
its history.
The progress made by the Home
Bank during the past few years was
referred to particularly by General
Manager Mason, who pointed out

were the strongest in tha history of
the frank. representing approximate-
ly 22% of total liabilities to the pub-
lic. Large gains were also made in
deposits, the' increase for the past
twelve months having amounted to
over three and a half millions, not-
withstanding the fact that 9,.508 of
the depositors had subscribed over
tory
$4,200Loan.,000 to the last Dominion Vic
The increase in deposits during
the war period had amounted to over
ten million dollars, an increase of
over 105 p.c., and reflects the in-
creased patronage extended the bank
by the public in both savings and
general commercial lines. None of
these figures include deposits of the
Dominion Government.
The general statement of assets
and liabilities everywhere reflects
the progress made, the total assets
of the bank now standing at $28,-
036,924, as compared with $23,075,-
773 at tli.e end of the previous year,
Total deposits now stand°at $18,600,-
000, as compared with $14,600,000 at
the end of the previous year.
The Profit and Loss Account is al-
so of special interest to sharehold-
ers, as it reflects a gain in profits
and has permitted of an appropria-
tion to rest account of $100,000, The
net profits for the year amounted to
$238,753, equivalent to 10,63.p.c. of

and various appropriations, includ-
ing $100,000 to Rest Account, the
amount carried forward was 5168,-

the previous year. _
FIRE THAT IS RD TO PUT OUT,
Water is not of much use for putting
out an oil fire. It may, indeed, be
much worse thpan useless, for burning
oil floats on it, and may thus 'be car-
ried to considerable distances, spread-
ing the fire far and wide.
Steam turned upon the ' flames
through pipes is often highly effective.
If its volume is sufficient' a cloud will
be formed that serves as a blanket,
filling the tank about the oil and ex-
cluding air from it,
Much more satisfactory, however, is
the newer method of bringing together
two chemical solutions, and spread-
ing over the surface of the burning oil
the thick foam resulting from their
combination, thereby excluding air
and extinguishing the flames.
The steam method works very well
with gas well fires, a number of por-
table field boilers being set up and
steam . thrown from them upon the
burning gas column in the form of
spray_ If the gas stream can be in-
terrupted for only a moment just
above the point of .discharge the fire
will be put out.
For putting out small gasoline fires
(especially on the floor) sawdust
works surprisingly well. It floats for
a while on the surface of the burning
liquid, forming a blanket which ex-
cludes
xcludes the air and smothers.the flame.
Dry sawdust seems to serve as well
as moist. -
Frothy mixture solutions of the kind
above described, when put up in port-
able containers of convenient size, are
useful in extinguishing small fires
about garages.
Sometimes electricity generated by
the friction of flowing gasoline against
the bottom and sides of a can, or even
by the flow of gasoline through a rub-
ber hose, produces a spark which, dis-
charged into an automobile tank that
is being filled, ignites the fluid with
serious or disastrous results. To
guard against accidents of this kind
is for obvious reasons most difficult.
LEMONS WHITEN AND
BEAUTIFY THE SKIN.
Make this beauty lotion cheaply for
your face, neck, arms and hands.
At the cost of a small jar of ordinary
cold cream one can prepare a full quar-
ter pint of the most wonderful lemon
skin softener and complexion beauti-
fier, by squeezing the juice of two
fresh lemons into a bottle containing
three ounces of orchard white. Care
should be taken to strain the juice
through a fine cloth so no lemon pulp
gets in, then this lotion will keep
fresh for months Every woman
knows that lemon juice is used to
bleach and remove such blemishes as
freckles. sallowness and tan and is
the ideal skin softener, whitener and
beautifier.
Just try it! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any drug store and
two lemons from the grocer and make
up a quarter pint of this sweetly fra-
grant lemon lotion and massage It
daily into the face, neck, arms and
hands. It is marvelous to smoothen
rough, red hands.
Another Haig Story,
Earl Dartmouth, the Governor of the
Zingari Cricket Club, has related a
new story of Sir Douglas Haig. When
Sir Douglas was invited to accept the
freedom of the club, he was reminded
by- Earl Dartmouth of its three prin-
ciples—"keep your promise, keep your
temper, and keep your wicket up." The
Field Marshal promptly replied: "Your
principles are worthy of the nation
that entered the war to keep its pro-
mise, that kept its temper through ill -
fortune and through good, and please
God, will keep its wicket up until its
promise has been redeemed."
"Blurting nut facts, in season and
out of season, is not necessary to
truth; to hold the tongue is also a
morality."--Ibscn.

in the Book of Genesis.-,.,
There had been a heavy downfall of
rain, and the district manager of a
Scottish railway was quickly on the
warpath. He telegraphed along dif-
ferent sections of the line as follows:
"Send full particulars on the flood."
Now there was a man on a parti-
cular section of the line where no
flooding had taken place, and he de-
cided that the message was a joke, so
he wired back as follows: "Look in
the Book of Genesis."
Taking a Rest.
An officer on board a warship was
drilling his men. "I want every man
to lie on his back, put his legs in the
air and move them as if he were rid-
ing a bicycle," he explained. "Now
commence."
After a short effort one of the men
stopped.
"Why have you stopped, Murphy?"
asked the officer.
"If ye plane sir," was the answer,
"Oi'm coasting."
