Alarm Wrist Watch

With an alarm wrist watch is supplied an electric battery to awaken a sleeper at a designated time by sending a current through and warming a strip of metal on his arm.


In Common Things

A man must invest himself near at hand and in common things, and be content with a steady and moderate return, if he would know the blessedness of a cheerful heart and the sweetness of a walk over the round earth. —John Burroughs.
