"Speaking of clocks," said ILic travel
er, "Kdinlinr^li, Scotland, has tin most
intorostiiiji time marking fiirviee I over
saw. Tlic city lies between two liills.
Oil one of tLicse, known as Carlton hill,
there is an observatory tower, in the
top of which a large black ball is sus
pended. Across the valley, probably a
mile away, is Castle hill, surmounted
by the historic Edinburgh castle. One
of the large guns in this fortress, point
ing toward Carlton hill, is electrically
•connected with the ball in the tower u
mile away. Every evening at o'clock
tlie gun is fired, and at the same mo
ment the ball falls. The device sots
the official time for nil Scotland.
"It is interesting to stand on Carlton
hill at the appointed hour to see the
simultaneous flash of the gun on Castle
bill and the fall of the ball close at
hand, while the roar of the gun is of
course some moments in crossing the
valley. On the other band, it is equal
ly interesting to stand beside the big
gun at dusk to watch the ball at Carl
ton hill fall just as the shot is fired.
I recall once standing in the courtyard
of the castle, watch in hand, waiting
for the cannon Just overhead to be
fired. It occurred to me it would be
more exciting to watch the crowds of
passing people, especially Since not
one was apparently thinking of the
•hot from the cannon. When the roar
took place, absolutely without warning,
hardly a yard above the heads of the
crowd, the scene well repaid my wait
ing. Everybody dodged. Children
•creamed, and men and women jumped
to the side of the wall. Of course it
was all over in a second, but in that
moment it seemed that an electric
•hock had passed through the crowd."

...By the average House owner is the last thing thought of.
Viewing it from an economic standpoint, it should be among the
first. The length of time a building is allowed to remain unpainted
after the old paint has grown porous and partly disappeared thru
the effects of the elements, will be more than counterbalanced by
the extra expense necessary to restore it to its former condition.
About three houses out of every five I know of need this attention
