Industrial Accidents Double During Dark Months Accidcut insurance statistics show that twice as mauy injuries to factory operatives occur in the dark winter months as during the light slim mer months. The cause principally is poor interior lighting; too few lamps and pooi methods of illumina tion. Had factory lighting also diminishes production and adds to damaged material. ' Our lighting experts will plan installations for workrooms and factories which will reduce the personal injury list, increase production and very likely decrease the expense of lighting.

I o Roy, N. V. G turned over In bed with tho sclf-sntls-fied notion that I hud mnuu nn Invest ment that would stay by mo and back up my Judgment. In tho morning when I got up I found that my Seth Thomas had Btoppcd at 3:30 a. m., and hnd Bot tled down to a still, quiet hush. I was not much dlncourngod, for it struck mo that the shelf was not ex actly horizontal, I stuck a pleco of blotting paper under one of Its turtlo like legs, and started it going again; nnd when the hired girl snld thnt she "didn't think that clock wns no good" I lost my temper nnd fired her. For fear people might mlsjudgo me, I will sny hero thnt Sophia is working for us now, when sho feels llko it and I " -'M further, thnt no clock can come botween us. That night when I cpmo homo tho thing had stopped again. I got an other blotter and crammed part of It under nnothor leg, wound It up, nnd started off in n gladsome manner, llko It was going to make up for all tho tlmo It had lost. I sat up and read until about 10 o'clock, and alt tho whllo it ticked and struck beau tifully. Dofore going to bed I wont In and took ono last look at that clock. The woman with the dogs nnd llttlo cupId looked peaceful "', ntlroly satisfied with their lots; the pendulum swung back and forth with a steady move ment, like It hnd settled down to a suro Job and was content. The Btln night -' '"Med with tho harmoni ous rhythm of thnt song, whllo the pendulum with its even mensured swing, ticked off time to the music. Thon I went to bed. It may have been nn hour II might hnvo been two when I wokw up. Tho clock wns striking. I count ed twelve; thon It struck thirteen still I might havo boon mistaken fourteen, that gavo my constitution a norvous shock Thon I counted up to fifty. Tho cold perspiration broke out on mo nnd I began to think. Do foro thnt clock had struck sixty-nine I hnd reviewed all tho ensen thnt hnd como to my knowledge of hallucina tions wrought by overwork. I wns Just getting rendy to stnrt In on n spell of reformation nnd was figuring wl'i'4' nd bettor call In first a doctor or a prenchcr that tlmopleco was still hammering nwny when my wlfo called to mo and nsked: "What'" tho matter with your clock?" It was like breaking loose from n nightmare. T immediately Kavo up all notion of pending for n doctoror a prcachor, nnd. llko a man wholly without fear, I got out of bed nnd marcho'' Into tho room whoro my wlfo sleeps and wnntcd to know what sho was worrying her hend about that clock for. "Why. It h struck 247 times, or had when I called you, nnd It Is not through yet." And sho snld "my clock." It was plain to mo that In tho future thero would bo no ono to share with mo tho responsibilities of that clock. This naturally mado mo sordid and out of condition. Mentally I was keoplng track of tho stroko 320 321. I finally broko looso nnd tnlV"-' in a tongue thnt was nlmost new to my folk: thon I grabbed my revolver and Hworo. bl'Chlorldo of mercury, if It struck boyond 400, I'd shoot ' '" Its vltnlB; p ' ' -rv ihot gun right In tho fnco of the hollo of California as I called that rrenturo on tho clock and hold It thoro.

Whothor It was tho Influonco of mind ovor mattor, I cannot say; but ns suro as tho world Is a foot across, that clock struck Just 400 and quit. Tho next ovonlng when I enmo homo to punpor.
