People don't often look back on the early 1900's for advice, but what if we could actually learn something from the Lost Generation?
通常人們不會(huì)為了求取生活妙方而去回顧20世紀(jì)初的年代，不過(guò)如果那個(gè)“垮掉的一代”真的能對(duì)我們有所助益呢？

The New York Public Library has digitized 100 "how to do it" cards found in cigarette boxes over 100 years ago, and the tips they give are so practical that millennials reading this might want to take notes.
紐約公共圖書(shū)館將一組100多年前的香煙盒上的“生活妙招”卡片進(jìn)行了數(shù)字化處理，這些卡片上的小貼士實(shí)在太實(shí)用了，二十一世紀(jì)的我們看到了也會(huì)多加留意！

How to Tell the Points of the Compass with a Watch
如何用手表辨認(rèn)南北方向

To determine the points of the compass by means of your watch, point the hour hand at the sun and then lay a piece of wire, or a blade of grass crosswise between the hour hand and the figure twelve. The end of the wire between the twelve and the hour hand points due south.
想要用手表辨認(rèn)南北方向， 你可以把時(shí)針對(duì)準(zhǔn)太陽(yáng)，再把一根金屬絲或者一根草放在時(shí)針和12點(diǎn)的位置中間。這根12點(diǎn)和時(shí)針之間的金屬絲末端指向的就是南方。
