Tliere comes a time when every boy or girl has some eberiHlied book be or he would like to preserve, but cannot do so very well bet'nnw the coter Is ot paper. If the book had a good cloth binding It could be easily saved, but with only a paper eorer It Is a hard matter to keep It from coming to pieces If much handled. It Is very easy to make a 'good, stiff cloth binding by the means of glue, cardboard, cheesecloth or muslin and a little Ingenuity. First get the exact size of the book. Then procure a pasteboard box and cut from It two covers one-quarter Inch larger all around than the edges of the book, ex ' I FT I SIDE !& SIDE (1L COVER j! COVER I i I li :l I PHEPAltINO TUB COVERS. cept at the back, where they should be even. Now cut a one-eighth Inch strip off each of the back edges of the cover and then lay the covers on the pleoa of cloth, each one-eighth Inch uwv.y from the space equal to the thick uess of the volume, which Is shown by dotted lines, Fig. 1. Cut the cloth around the covers, leav ing one and one-half Inch margin'. Paste the cloth to the covers In this position and then turn them over the margin, which Is also pasted down smoothly. Cut a third piece of card board the same size as the back of the volume. Paste this to the cloth, and when all parts are thoroughly dry glue the back of the volume firmly to the pasteboard back, as shown In Fig. 2. If the paper cover of the book still remains you can cut It out neatly and paste It on tint front side of the bind lug, as shown, and the same can be done with the paper title back, both parts being removed, of course, before the pasting is done. Thus If you pick out a color of cloth that In harmonious with the color and design of the paper cover you will have quite aB attractive looking a volume as you could buy for double the money yours cost. OUR NATIONAL FLAG. The Star, the Stripes and the Red. White and nine. The name of Mrs. Betsy Ross is so Intimately associated with our national flag that the belief that she designed It has become common. It seems to be true, however, that she made the first one ever floated. Briefly stated the facts are as follows: Washington was called to Philadelphia from York In June, 1770, to advise with congress on the state of affairs, and during that vis It he was requested to make sugges tions as to the design for a flag. Accom panied by Colonel George Ross and Kobert Morris as a committee of con gress, Washington called on Mrs. Betsy Koss and asked lir to make a flag from a drawing that they showed her. The drawing was a rough one, and Washington, at Mr. Boss' suggestion, remade it. One of her suggestions wag that the stars should be five pointed instead of six pointed, as they were in the original drawing. The flag thus designed and made was adopted by congress. The thirteen stripes symbol' Ized the thirteen colonies. As to the colors red, and white, It Is likely that they were used because the army flag had been red and the navy flag white. The blue field with white stars repre sented the sky, with a new constella tion. The Imprisoned Toad. You have nil heard stories about live toads thnt were found Imbedded In rocks, where, It was said, they might have been for years. Naturalists say that these stories are either myths or exaggerations, for the toads could not possl'ily exist for an Indefinite time under such conditions. They have, however, considered the stories of suf ficient interest to warrant them in test ing their truth. It Is said, for example, that a French naturalist Imbedded a toad In plaster of parts and found It alive at the end of twenty-eight months. Wo all dislike to hear of such experiments with living tilings, for they are not without an element of cruelty, but the cause of science some times requires that they should be made.

A man of Integrity will never list to any plen against conscience, Tospa, The Adirondack takes. One of the most striking phenomena of the Adirondack region Is the carry ing lower of the human voice In still weather upon the lakes great and small. Persous ashore easily bear tbe ordinary conversation of others who are so far out upon the lake as to be Indistinguishable, and as a great many Adirondack visitors habitually violate the law touching the slaughter of deer all such offenders are extremely care ful not eveu to whisper a word that might betray their guilt when rowing upon the lakes. A "Gold Brick" of Old Tim. In one of the Tell-el-Amarna letters, written during the eighteenth dynasty, the king of Babylon accuses Ameno phls III. of Egypt of sending him a mass of base metal for gold. He says, "The twenty mtnas of gold you sent me contained, when melted down, only five mtnas of pure gold." London Post. No Competition.
