THE QUAKER'S ADDRESS TO HIS WATCHMAKER.
"I hereby sen.) thee my pocket clock, which standeth .in ueed of thy friendly correction. The last time it was at thy frieudiy school it was hi no way ben-iited or. profited thereby, for I perceive by the index of its mind that it is a liar, and the truth is riot in it. Purge it, therefore, I beseech tbee, and correct it from'the error of its ways, and show it the path l where- 1 in it should go $ and when thoti layest thy correcting band upon it, see that it be without passion, lest thou shouldst drive it to destruction ; and"when-thou seest it. comfortable to the above mentioned rules, send it home to me with a just and true bill; drawn out in the spirit of moderation, and I will remit to thee the root of all evil."
