This edition of the Globe has been printed in our new offices in the Condon National Bank BMsr Movinsr a Drintshoo is no small job and consequently our news columns have suffered a consid erable loss of reading matter, which fact we hope our subscnb ers will overlook in the expecta tion of more and better reading matter in the future. In the past we have been burdened with a lack of roo:n for our office, presses, type, etc., but in our Dresent Quarters we have plenty of each and are also nearer the business district with a better chance to Dick ud the news, and we intend taking advantage of all the opportunities knocking at our door offering us the chance ta give the people of Condon and Gilliam County the best news paper they ever knew Hit It Riaht. Kegan Paul in his reminis cence speaks in one case of his biahon as "an astute and insincere man," giving this. instance of his in sincerity: At a meeting of the cler gy at Clapham his chaplain told him that old Dr Blank, who had been many years in the diocese, as vexed at havin? been foreotten. "Yea." said the bishoD. "I have not , the smallest recollection of him, but I will make it all right and will go and speak to him. Which is her" made his wavio him. "Mv dear Dr. Blank, I have not had a moment for real conversation with you. I need not ask vou how vou are after all these years. Do you still ride your gray mare?" "Yes, my lord. How good of you to rememDer neri etc The chaDlain. who was within ear shot, said when he again came near the bishop, "Then you did remem ber Dr. Blank after all?" "Not a bit of it," said the bishop. "I saw the prav hairs on his coat, and I ' chanced the sex. Leeds Pottery. Leeds is probably the most cos mnnolitan center of industry in all Kngland, that of pottery being the most ancient. Thia industry rose to some eminence at one period, both in regard to domestic and ornamen tal ware of the white filigree order, bnt now the onlv branch which re mains is that of artistic majolica, In which we find real works of art in the choicest of designs and color ing. Such productions, worthy of special note, are the flower rases and pedestals for the same, small vases and other ornaments, and it ia doubtful if either the Moors, who founded thia industry, or the Ital ians, who developed it, produced anything superior to the modern pottery from Leeds. Consular Re ports. Ready Exam ole. The school managers were nres ent all of 'em and the teacher trna anxious that her scholars should do well. She picked upon Tommy n a the most likelv to do her credit. ' Tommy's knees showed through his trousers, and because the managers were present Tommy sat with a - . hand on each knee. "Tommy," said the teacher, "will ". 'you please give me" the teacher " was alwavs nolite when the man agers were present "will you please give me a sentence wun tne wora 'toward' in it ?" Then Tommv rose and in a erace- ful attitude, with a thumb on each knee, answered: "Please. i?achcr. I toward my trowsis." Tendon Answers. Cleverer Than He. The confirmed bachelor came back to the club lunch from the end of the earth, and we all asked him if he was married (he is nearly fif ty). "I shnll marry a clever vo man if I do," he replied grimly. "Thought you didn't like those clev er women," said the youngest mem ber simply. "I don't," ad tha bachelor, whose views are well known and widely spread. . "But if ever I marry it'll be an infernally clever woman who docs it." Lon don Chi'oniclo. '. : , ;.. : Deaende Largely the TlmeWeeB and the Man Wearing It. The life of a watch, jewelers sat. depends largely on the person car rvmsr it ami the care taken oi u to the care of a watch some jewelers snv that it should be oiled once a vear. some once in two years; perhaps, once in eighteen months would be about tne rignt tiling. All iewelcra sav that a watch .... j - thnuld alwav be wound at the tame time daily." This ia essential to make it give the best and most uni form rNulta. If a watch it wrrait- tA to run down it ma on rewind ing keep umerent time ana require regulating. With the watch wound Munil.irlv end kent running there is set up and established in the main spring a certain tension, n tins strain is wholly released by letting th watch run down the soring may on rewinding take on a somewhat different tension, llua ainerence mav be extremely slieht. but it may be enough to affect the running of the watch. While aome watches are lone hv 1 manv are short lived, the long lived watches being of course those of fine quality that are also wen cared for. But there ia a limit to the life of anv watch that is kept constantly in use. The best of watches, like the best of anything, a-ilkWrer out in time. A watchmaker had lately brought in to hira lor repaic a watcn ixd years old that had been running practically continuously. It might he difficult to sav of iust what dura tion its intervals or rest naa oeea, hot it ti sunnosed to have been run practically continuously, and, though it had stopped at least once, it was still in fairly good condition and pood for tome future use. But o . this was an extraordinary case. atosi watches, However excellent iney MA htvA hAAfi nncnnailv. would uinj " w - J t with constant use wear out in far lis time. Sometimes there are brought in to jewelers nne old ana once vai liable watches whose owners, desir ing now to buy a new watch, wish to offer the old watcn at some price in exchange, but it is of no value except for the weight of the metal contained in its cases. r.verv jew eler has an accumulative collection of such old works, which are of no value whatever, except that at long intervals tnere may be iouna among them a wheel or a part that may serve in aome other old time watch brought in for renair. So watches oo wear out, ana as io the life of a watch, a ieweler said. a good average watch with fair care ought to wear from thirty to iorty years and a fine watch fifty years; it mieht last seventv-five. but fifty years would probably be nearer the hgure. It may be thought tbat a superior watch would last longer than that, but really the wonder is that this delicate piece oi mechanism run ning vear after vear ceaselessly should run so long.
