Tits Greatest Man. la la ▲ curious astronomical clock is , to ba seen in Exeter cathedral. Be low the works is s csbinet which when opened displays a miniature belfry with ringers, and the back ground is painted to represent a number o f old buildings in Exeter. This was built by Lovelace, took thirty yeare to construct and rivals the famous clocks of Wimborne minister and Walls cathedral. A t Wimborne is an old clock that has in the center e globe which represents the earth and the sun and the moon, and the phases of the letter are variously depicted. The clock still goes, and the works, which are in a room above, cause e figure outside the tower to strike tne quarters. This was the.work of a Glastonbury monk early in the fourteenth century. Well* has a wonderful clock, one of thé oldest in the world, which dates from 1325. When it strikes the hour four knights on horseback go riding round, and the seated man kicks two small bells with his heels, aa he has been doing every fifteen minutes fo r nigh on six cen turies. This clock was the work o f Peter Lightfoot, another monk of Glastonbury. There is a dock at Windsor castle known as the £lobe dock. The globe is enameled in roval blue; a ver tical bar shows the houra and a scythe the minutes. The Isaac Har- brecht clock is on view at the Brit ish museum, and two docks well worth a visit may be seen at the Soane museum. The upper worka of ona o f these revolve once in twelve months and require to be wound only once in every two years, p .Interesting old docks are to he found in private houses. One of these may be seen at Lutterworth. This ia a long dock, which has an oval face, a hand that pointa to the days o f the week, completing the round in seven days, another which shows the true dead heat and a third which pointa to the chimes and quarters. On the upper part of the clock are a small orchestra, which indudes a flute, a cello and two violins, and a boy and girl and threw «inflow- The hours and the quarters are struck, every three hours a tune ia played three times over, while the three figures that beat time and the boy and girl dance to the music. — London Irrelevant.

Ingrowing Too Nalls. According to Dr. Lehmann, it is possible to cure ingrowing toe nails. Well made boots must be worn, and the nails should he properly cut, so that the corners always slightly pro ject over the fleshy part o f the toe. These precautions taken, the in flamed parts are then soaked with a diluted solution of ferric chloride, which is applied by means of cot ton wool. I t is enough to moisten the ailing part thoroughly with the liquid. The procedure is repeated every day, and after a short time the soft parts and proud flesh dry and become horny, while the nail softens.— London Globe. Tha Surprise.
