no entirely satisfactory explanation
has been suggested. The only conclu- simple fact there nite few
sion to be drawn from the acknowl- '
edged facts of the qjse is that it is
not safe for the watchmaker to infer,
merely from the breaking of a main-
spring, that it is of anin-ferior grade,
nor for his custoracn to Relieve the
watchmaker deficient\n ekiU because
the mainspring of bis tifnepieca has
snapped shortly after being-rtplaced.

Despite the investigations regard-
their' best export record iu £h$ /»S the structure of mainsprings and
experimentation arid theorizing on
the subject, some of the causes of the
breaking of mainsprings remain an
unsolved mystery. Many, indeed, are
the known causes responsible for*
breaking, such as faulty construction
or tempering, careless handling, lead-
ing to the formation of rust, and poor
fitting; but after all these which are
reeognized have been eliminated
m.i there still remains the fact well knojvu
he 'fo watchmakers that the best springs
will, in spite of the most careful han-
dling and proper adjustment, unex-
pectedly break, sometimes in a num-
ber of places. It will thus happen that
of two springs made at the same tinjg
toyy, nowever, ueapiie me m- by the same process, of the same ma- ’
(jifeusc in imports of tnanufac- ferial, tempered in the same way and

When rrimmsidered that the
spring is but from .0Q8 to .009 of an
inch in thickness, that the material
must be subjected to a process which
shall give it a high state of elasticity
and at th® time enable it to do
its prescribed work for years, a sliglii
molecular dUaJrangemlnt in its struts
lure may be oxpeeted to occur from
causes too insignificant for obserw
tion. j, ;
Many jewelers state that it is thair
experience that they have many mop?
mainsprings to repair after, a warm,
humid day than at any other timp'.
PQthers believe the breaking to be due

That magnificent chestnut'mane rose
boldly upward and waved out fan-
wise in every direction from her head
like rays from a star. It liferally
framed over her face in a golden
brown halo that must have measured
nearly sevfen feet from side to side.
The long locks on her crown stood al-
most erect and reached to within a
foot or so of the zinc, and all through
the mass was a faint rippling motion
like sunlight on water. The young
lady who posed for us was under any
circumstances decidedly pretty, but
with her hair outspread in that ex-
traordinary manner she looked liko
a goddess. The phenomenon was
due, of course, to the attraction of the
electricity with which the zinc plate
was charged, and was merely repeat-
ing on a big scale an experiment I have
often performed at school. There we
«ed to -hold a stick of well-rubbed
■sealing wax ov^r the head of a small
doll and see its heir stand on end.
I should think the zinc plate might
be put to effective use on the st^ge.”
