Layers for clipping must be one above another where layer above will be clipped into layer below. Hold down Alt key on keyboard and navigate pointer with mouse button to line between two layers until cursor transform to arrow with two circles, then click and layers are clipped.

Clipping layer allows you to insert content of one layer into another layer. For example: create type layer and type some text then place layer with image above it and clicp layer with image into layer with text. Text will be filled with image from layer above.
