Bangerter, Friedrich, 1868-; Clocks and watches; Perpetual motion
This clock will give perfect time in any room, in any house or building
and in any exterior or interior location. It is not affected by time or
locality. The mysterious forces of Nature operate it equally as well in
the jungles of Africa as in a New York or London mansion.
It is the one clock for all time, all localities and all conditions.
NATURE’S MANY PHENOMENA.
How marvelous and manifold are the workings of Nature! Her phenomena and
secrets are ever subjects of intense study by the world’s greatest
intellects.
Nature’s manifestations are mild, majestic, mighty, cold, calm,
bounteous, benign, beneficent, beautiful, terrific, tender,
temperate--in fact, every adjective in the English language could be
employed to describe her full gamut of moods.
Some of us have heard the furious roaring of a blizzard and observed the
enormous force and terrific speed of the tempest, leaving behind death
and destruction in its wake. Many towns, large and small, have been
swept out of existence by blizzards, tornadoes and cyclones.
And the silent, fructifying forces of Nature--how grand and beautiful
beyond expression do they accomplish their work! “Great oaks from little
acorns grow,” and from little, apparently insignificant seeds spring
monarch trees of the forest, their crowns majestically waving three and
four hundred feet in the air. The mysteries of life have yet been
revealed to no man, and the artist has not lived who has been able to
paint the picture, to catch the true color effects, that only Mother
Nature can depict on a world wide canvas.
NATURE’S GREAT PLANETARY CLOCKWORK.
Every atom of force in the universe performs a purpose and function.
Nature never makes a mistake.
[Illustration: BANGERTER’S PERPETUAL CLOCK.]
Each of the myriad forces under her control has the most logical cause
for existence, and all are under the guidance of the most perfect
system. The entire planetary system may be termed the Clockwork of the
Universe--the great Natural Clock, absolutely authoritative and perfect
in operation and giving us days, nights, seasons and variations of
temperature with a regularity that never fails.
These variations of temperature really mean the source of all life and
vegetation. In order that we human beings live the globe must revolve on
its axis, and as the year grows on apace we receive the heat rays from
another planet--the Sun--in different angles and positions and in the
variations of temperature ranging from extreme heat to extreme cold.
HEAT THE SOURCE OF ALL POWER.
From heat comes all power. When the latent forces of Nature were first
set aflame by primitive man he touched the spring of civilization. Since
that time fire has been working for human progress. It is one of the
most powerful agents in the development of civilization.
