Tommy wag deeply interested in the trinket, - and he expressed unbounded admira- tion for it. He did not ask for it out- right, but he went so far as to say, “What are you going to do with ft.

Ko When a clock does not run contings ously, or atops frequently, the cause i8¢ often due to a lack of oil. This may be’ remedied by saturating a piece of &bk sorbent cotton with kerosene oil and placing it inside the clogk, below the pendulum. When the cotton is Fe moved a month or so later it is found to be very dirty. This shows that the | fumes of the kerosecne oil have mot only oiled the clock, but have also cleaned it.—Pictorial Review. ¢ ! ® —y Not for Her. ] .
