chafing and may be used freely on any 
part ot the body.

CIRCULATION DEPARTMENT 
A REMARKABLE CLOCK 
JAPAN possesses a remarkable 
timepiece. It is contained in a 
frame three feet wide and five feet long, 
representing a noonday landscape of 
great beauty. In the foreground, plum 
and cherry trees and rich plants appear 
in full bloom; in the rear is seen a hill, 
gradual in ascent, from which apparently 
flows a cascade, admirably imitated in 
crystal. 
From this point, says London Iron, 
a thread-like stream meanders, encir¬ 
cling rocks and islands in its wind¬ 
ings, and finally losing itself in a far off 
stretch of woodland. In a miniature 
sky a golden sun turns on a silver wire, 
striking the hours on silver gongs as it 
passes. Each hour is marked on the 
frame by a creeping tortoise, which 
serves the place of a hand. A bird of 
exquisite plumage warbles at the close 
of each hour, and as the song ceases, a 
mouse sallies forth from a neighboring 
grotto, and scampering over the hill to 
the garden, is soon lost to view .—Boston 
Herald. 
MONUMENT TO CATHERINE DE PAIX 
A MONUMENT has been unveiled at 
^ ^ Peronne, Prance, to the memory 
of the Jeanne d’Arc of Picardy, Marie 
Eoure, otherwise known as Catherine 
de Paix. 
Peronne-la-Pucelle, as the little town 
is now called, was besieged in 1536 
by the imperial troops under the Count 
of Nassau, who fired no less than 1,800 
projectiles into it daily. Its defenders 
were commanded by Marshal de Fleu- 
ranges, Comte de Dampmartin, and a 
Neapolitan general, Prancesco Chiara- 
monte, and the women appear to have 
acted with special bravery. On August 
25, 1536, a general assault was made on 
the tow n by the besieging troops and one 
of them, an ensign, was about to plant 
his banner in triumph on the wall wLen 
Marie Eoure performed the great act of 
bravery which has immortalized her 
name. 
She went up to the ensign in a friendly | 
w'ay and said that if he would hand I 
over the flag to her she could fix it 
for him better than he could himself, i 
The ensign handed it to her at once, ’ 
offering her the pole end, whereupon she | 
gave him a push with it, and overthrew j 
him into the ditch after cracking his j 
head. — N. T. Tribune. \
