Book 3 — Muffling the Ticking of a Watch or Clock
Reading edition
When a watch is used on a table in the sick room, the ticking may be eliminated by placing an ordinary tumbler over the watch. The face may be seen readily. A large glass vessel, or transparent jar, may be used in the same way to cover a small clock.—L. E. Turner, Jamaica, N. Y.
