Gas Meter is Accurate
Put 100 of the best watches against
100 gas meters in a test for accuracy,
exposed to the same varying condi
tions of heat, cold, humidity and the
m eters will win out every time, says
a bulletin. The gas meter is regarded
as one of the most accurate measur
ing instrum ents in use today. Like
the registering turnstile in parks, rail
road stations and fair grounds, the
m eter will not operate unless some
thing passes through it The mechan
ism is not set in motion and the in
dicator hands cannot move except as
gas passes through and makes them
move. It is rather interesting to
know that the original mechanical
principles adopted in 1844 for the cor
rect measurement of gas still persist
and that while hundreds of inventors
have endeavored to discover some
thing better, they have improved up
on details only.

Over M Years’ Experience
A minister was quetstioning his
Sunday School concerning the story
of Eutvchus, the young man who, lis
tening to the preaching of the Apostle
Paul, went to sleep, and, falling out
of a window, was taken up dead.
“W hat," he asked, “do we learn
from this solemn event’"
The reply from a little girl came:
"Please, sir, m inisters should learn
not to preach too long sermons."

esteem of the most discriminate and skeptical users of toilet ar

be derived from its use. Also a large assortment of toilet requisites
