Keeping Child Covered, -It is al-
ways a difficult problem to keep a
chuld covered when in bed. Sew
two pieces of inch wide tape the
desired length to each side of the
mattress and work a strong button-
hole in the end of each tape. Sew
two buttons on the blanket or sheet
next the child also on one quilt.
Sew the buttons far enough apart,
say thirty inches, to allow the child
freedom of movement in turning
over -in bed, but not enough space
so it can crawl out crossways of
the bed. To hold the buttons firm-
ly and keep the bedding from tear-
ing away from the buttons sew a
strip of tape over the edge of quilt
and blanket and sew the button,
then the two thicknesses of tape and
quilt, then button the tapes to the
blanket on each side.
SALAD HELPS.
Mix salt thoroughly through your
minced potatoes before adding the
dress'ng to prevent flat taste.
If mustard is mixed with milk in-
stead of water it will not dry out.
Vegetables for salad should be
thoroughly dry ur the dressing will
nc t stick.
Mix the flour and sugar together
dray for dressing, then add boiled
water and stir.
Stir mayonnaise with an egg
beater if hurried. For smooth dress-
ing blend with a fork, not a spoon.
If the vinegar is heated before ad-
ding to the dressing it will not, cur-
dle.
Mala a glib through the cork of the

at right angle, then the oil is drop-

AN HISTORIC CLOCK.
It Has Been Running for Five
lllundred Years.
The old clock on the Palais de
Justice, Paris, which stopped a
couple of years ago, is again run-
ning. It has kept time more or less
regularly for over five hundred
years; it has weathered the 'storms
of the Revolution, the Commune,
numerous wars and sieges of Paris,
during all that time its long, rusty,
irn•r hands having moved around
and pointing the hour day and
night, and justifying the name of
the "Quaff de 1'Horloge," given
from time immemorial to the quay
which is overlooks.'
The tower known as the "Tour
de l'Horloge" was completed un-
der Philippe to Bel, about 1313, and
for more than half a century the
hour used to bo given by striking
a bell. In 1370 Charles V. proposed
to have a big clock made to replace
the bell, and in those days a clock
was simply called a "machine."
Charles V. searched in vain for an
artisan capable of making ib in his
own dominions, and, therefore, he
called upon a famous German
craftsman named Heinrich von Vic,
who came to Paris and undertook
to build a clock which would mark
the hour fur the sittings of Parlia-

looked up to our right, and on top
of the ridge, above -the timber lino;
sat' -a large grizzly, running for all
he was worth, '
I called Pope's attention to him,
and as he, was entirely out of range, 1,
being some eight hundred yardb
away, and as we supposed from his
rapid flight that he had seen us, ere
sat quietly on the horses and looked
at him. The horses, too, saw the
bear, and they also watched him.
For two hundred yards or, so he
continued his flight, and then, to
our amazement, he turned down the .
ridge and came straight toward' us
on the jump. This was another
story. We both dismounted. I held
tate horses by their heads, so they
could not make any disturbance,
and Pope stepped a few feet. ahead
and dropped on one knee, ready for
a shot in ease the, bear came near

The bear turned a somersault,

This was Pope's first grizzly, and
from the stories he had been told of •
how wild there bears were and
how hard to kill, he had felt that
it was doubtful if ho ever got one.
Yet we had been standing, with the

the horses kept their ears pointed
forward and watched the bear from
the time he left the ridge until Pope
shut him.
