NOT HARD TO UNWIND SPRING
Simple Method Of Starting CLOCK
When the Key Has Been Given
Turn Too Much.

II in winding a clock actuated py
a spring you have given the key a
turn too much and SO have wound
the spring so tight that the CLOCK
won't run, you don't have to take the
clock to a clockmaker to have the
spring unwound. You can start II
yourself If you will go about 1t the
right way and exercise q little pa
thence.
Earring or sinking the clock does no
good. What you want to do is to hoio
it up and turn 1t right and left quickly
but gently to oscillate the balance
wheel. The object Of this. OF course
ia to set the clock in action and free
the spring from the binding restraint
upon it, give the spring little play
a chance to exercise its own power.
II your own strong arm we're bouno
tightly to your side you couldn't use
It at all; but If you could work your
arm free just a little bit you could
then break loose. 1t is so with the
tightly wound clock spring; give II
Just a little bit of play and 1t Will
then be able to exert itself.
With your first oscillation the bal
ance wheel will stop after half dog
en- ticks, but that has helped. Keep
this up for ten to fifteen minutes
and you will then have given the
clock spring play enough to enable II
to exert its own power and keep the
clock going.

A Century AGO.

One hundred years ago congress en-
gagged in a warm discussion of the
report transmitted by the president
from the secretary of war explaining
the failure of the army on the north
ern frontier. The political opponents
of President Madison and the anti
war party in general had much to
criticise in the conduct Of the war.
While the American navy had distin-
guished itself on the seas, the land
forces had accomplished little of real
importance. Failure had resulte d
from the invasion Of Canada by Gen
erals Wilkinson and Hampton. The
report of the secretary of war, which
was founded on letters and reports
received from the several command
! ers, allayed much of the criticism,
with the result that congress author
lied a loan of $25,O00,OO0 for the fur
