And which book is this one i have no recollection of the name of but its something like where the wind blows and it ahs a picture of a cloud with breath.







What literary term do the ebony clock and its arresting chimes in The Masque of the Red Death illustrate?

personification

imagery

symbolism

hyperbole







I lost the directions on how to wind it so it chimes the correct amount of chimes for the appropriate time.
I’m sorry I wrote the question the wrong way. It is battery run, but there is detailed steps to go through to get it to chime correctly. Ireceived it as a gift in 2001 and unfortunaley lost those directions. It was purchased at Things Remembered. They don’t the directions either.

i know that you can change how long the tube is and that will change the pitch but i want to know how that will help the pitch…..like how does the change in size of the tube help to change the pitch???







It runs great, keeps perfect time, but at 9:00 it chimes once, 10:00 it chimes twice, etc….any suggestions? Please????

























I used to buy them at a chain "Natural wonders" but they went out of business a while back. I know i can get them on the net, but I want to support a local merchant. any local area would be ok but, Lately ive noticed my gas gauge go from full to empty on even the smallest trips (at least it seems like it). so saying that, anywhere in the valley would be desirable.

How to find a music box like this?




I had a teacher who had something like a music box at her house and I would love to get one like it. It was a box with wooden top and bottom, and glass sides. To make it play, you turn it upside down, and a bunch of little metal balls fall onto some metal chimes, making beautiful little "ding" noises. Then you could turn it upside down again, and the balls would fall back to the other side and hit the chimes again. I think maybe there was a weak magnet on the top and bottom so not all the balls fell at the same time.

It didn’t play a melody or anything, but it was really cool because it played a different series of notes every time, based on which chimes the balls fell onto.

If anyone can tell me what this is called or where to get one, I would really appreciate it!
