A WATCH LOST. AND FOUND.

Mr Willaad J. Parker, proprietor of the Mineral Spring Stock and Pasture Farm, at Junction City, Kans., writes in regard to a ] Waterbury watch : Four years ago I had a i boy working for mo, and some time in August 1885, he traded for a Waterbury, and boy-like, he scratched his initials on the back case. He lost the watch in the hayfield the second day after trading for it, and could not find it. A few clays since my little girl while raking hay saw something glisten; when the horse and rake bad passed over, she ran to it, and behold, it was a Waterbury. She brought it'to me, and there were the scratched initials, proving it to be the watch which was lest four years ago. Since the watch was lost I have made hay on the ground three times, and have had three prairie fires pass over the watch; yet when my daughter brought the watch to me I wound it up, and was surprised to see it begin running, and still more so to find that it keeps accurate time. I am carrying the watch myself. Tho crystal was cracked, and the case somewhat tarnished, but otherwise none the worse for wear. The watch is quite a treasure in ihe family. The children each want to wind the " ticker "as they call it. 2 Advice to Mothers!— Are jou broken in your rest by a eick child suffering with the pain ol 'catting teeth ?
