Wilks,<lb />Dempsy Rufiin, Julius Jenkins.<lb /><lb />have to know is how long one tick<lb />in winding up will run the watch.<lb />I'll explain to you: Suppose that at<lb />three oTclock I wind up my watch<lb />until it is tight, as we say"that is,<lb />until another turn of the winder<lb />would break a spring. At five<lb />oTclock I wind the watch again, and<lb />find that the winder clicks twelve<lb />times before the watch is wound up<lb />to the place where it sticks.

All you |<lb /><lb />If you count eighteen, then you<lb />| know that the watch has run down<lb />one hundred and eighty minutes<lb />since eleven o'clock, and that the<lb />time must be very near two o'clock.<lb />To be sure, you canTt tell the exact<lb />time, but you can generally get<lb />within a quarter of an hour of it.�<lb />~~WouldnTt the same rule hold<lb />good fora clock or watch which {fs<lb />wound with a key?�<lb />~J dare say it would, but I have<lb />pever tried it on anything excepta<lb />stem-winding watch. I know a4<lb />blind man who always tells time by<lb />winding his watch and counting the<lb />ticks. His sense of touch is quite<lb />delicate, and he can wind up his<lb />watch three or four times a day and<lb />then calculate within ten minutes of<lb />the correct time.�<lb /><lb />ity that were supposed to belong<lb /><lb />to<lb />it, and in Many other ways falls far�<lb />short of the standard originally set<lb />for it.
