bear some eight hundred yards In frons

Of watching the splendid tactics of the
dogs. As soon as they came up with
the bear they spread out IN q semi

them.

panions gave the wretched brute
enough to attend TO In another direc

There b IN interesting story back
Of the hour Of four - represented on
The fAee Of CLOCKS. Perhaps you have

tural. IL 10 usually-st least in all
cases Of old clocks and wstohes-IIII.
The reason for IL IL said to be that
away back In the time OF Charles Y.
Of France. Who reigned in the latter
half of the fourteenth century, when
the first clock was made, its maker,
Henry Wick, was commanded TO bring
it before the king. He did so, and the
king was very well pleased with it.,
watching the works with much inter
est. But be said, finally. "You have
got the figures on the dial wrong,
II think not, your Majesty" replied
the clockmaker.
Yes that four should be four ones
Surely not, your Majesty" urgeC
the man. again.
Eyes, it should be four ones" In
sisted the king.
You are wrong" once more ssi'
Wick, which made the king very an
cry.
IL am never wrong" he cried
Take it away and correct the mis-
take" The poor clockmaker coui'

After several wears OF exorbitantlv
large profits the manufacturers of
bicycles have been compelled 70 very
largely reduce their prices. Tho pub
lie actually refused 10 longer pay 800
for n machine which can be built for
one-quarter that amount
\ few makers saw this some time
ago and put on the market cheaper
machines at very greatly reduced
prices which so cut into the business
OF the higher priced manufacturers
that IN pure self-defense they were
compelled 10 bid goodbye 10 their old
high prices.
Why should not the same thing oc-
chr with type-writng machines? They
no doubt cost considerably less 70 pro-
Guce than bicycles. and vet some Of
then are selling at the ridiculously
high price Of 800 II is fair 20 infer
that a machine which sells at $50 costs
close to Sl5 20 manufacture
II few large department stores IN
New York. Boston, Philadelphia, Chi
cago. etc, would arrange for large
quantities 70 be manufactured for them
by some one outside of Trust the
prices would come down 10 reasonable
/ figures as have those Of bicycles.
