A Plea for Ashes,

Plea for Ashes.
The hearth stone hangs fire in many
families because of an exaggerated idea
of dirt that accompanies an open fire.
If with much argument, persuasion
and entreaty, the old fre-board is taken
away for once, and a fire lighted by
some enthusiastic antiquarian, no
sooner is it gone out, than morbid
neatness brandishes every brand and
ash, as if these were the signs Of some
shocking disorder. Now, if you
please, ashes are not dirty-they are
clean so clean, indeed, as to be use
full in cleaning other things. Fire is an
emblem of purity, and ashes, with
sackcl0th, of publication. A fireplace
secured out with soap-suds every day
never seems like place for fire at all.
TO thoroughly enjoy an open fire we
shall need to relax somewhat our pref
dice against liberal pile of ashes in
the fireplace. A bed of ashes protects
the hearth and the chimney back from
injury by too fervant heat, and pre-
serves embers and coal from waste
full draft. Your back log, to spend
frugally. needs to be imbeded in ashes.
it is not everyone who has green rock
maple to burn with it's wealth of
snowy ashes trimming over upon the
hearth. But whoever has seen a fire
of it, will give up the notion of dirt
as connected with ashes. Sweep the
hearth clean, and as often as you
like, up to the ashes-but let those
lie, deep and wide. as the natural base
Of the fire

A Fourth Presidential Ticket.

There is a fourth Presidential ticket
in the field. Captain Chauncey Barnes,
of California, has nominated himself
for President, and Caroline Brocklies,
OF the same State for Vice President.
His platform as announced in printed
circular, is as follows: mo salary,
no rum, whisky or tobacco to be used
at the head of Church or State and
every man to have his wife, mother or
sister to act and stand by him side by
side, to counsel with upon all subjects
pertaining to the welfare of of our
government and HUMANITY

About Milki0g.,


Five per cent. and perhaps ten, can
be added to the amount of milk oh.
tanned from the COWS of this country,
if the following rules are inexorably
followed:
l. Never hurry COWS in driving to
and from pasture.
2. Milk as nearly at equal intervals
as possible. Half-past five in the
morning and six at night are good
hours.
8. Be especially tender to the COW at
milking time.
4. When seated draw the milk as
rapidly as possible, being always cer-
tain to get it all.
5. Never talk or think of anything
besides what you are doing when milk.

The better she loves you, the more

Changing the Situation of Hives.

IL O1Icu udplc1o Cl1dtU tllC DCchccpGi
-'r some reason or purpose finds it
ecessary to get q stock transported
"a new situation in the apiary before
re dormant season arrives One of
re plans usually recommended, is to
love it daily towards the intended
ght by short stages, of about two feet
- time. -
Another and more efficient plan some
mes adopted, is to take the stock to a
istance Of not less than a mile, and
fter allowing it to remain there three
eeks, to bring it home and set it on
re stance prepared. Both these
lethods are attended with considera-
lie trouble, but it must be apparent the
lfficulty of shifting a hive would be
realty reduced if we could put it's
ees into the condition peculiar to q
warm. This is what we attemp to af-
oct whenever we transport stock
rom one side Of our garden to the
Their.
Our procedure is as follows: If the
ees are in a common straw skep, we
rive out half of their number with
ae queen, into an empty one-and put
aedriven bees on the old stance, and
ne skep, from which they were eject.
d, on the new, leaving them thus till
he following morning.
Then, before many bees are astir-
re drive again the elected bees, with
heir queen, into another empty skep,
nd place them for few hours as near
spossible to the hive from which
hey were first driven. These driven
ees now act like aswarm, and, as they
Excessively 80 out, examine and make
themselves acquainted With their new
tuation. Toward midday we shake
hem out in portions on to newspa-
'er, and make them run into the origi-
- al skep.
If hive containing frames is to be
hifted, let it, early in the afternoon,
'e carried at once to the place it is in
ended to occupy, and there opened.
.ook over the frames, till the one
Which has the queen is found. Take
III frame to the vicinity of the old
lance, and, by a jerk send queen and
'ees from it into skep that has been
lsed, and to which fragments of comb
,dhere. Adjust the skep on the stance,
nd restore the frame to it's place in
he removed hive. The skep will re.
-:eive all bees that are not out in the
ields, when they come home, and all
he more aged bees that will return
rom the shifted hive, as soon as they
discover the absence of their queen.
EARLY in the morning following,
lrive, as before, queen and bees in the
,kep into another empty one, and set
hem besied the frame hive, and join
1T midday.

| sat alone with my conscience
In place where time had ceased,
And we talked of my former living
In the land where the years increased,
And | felt should have to answer
The questions it put 10 me
And to face the answer and question
Throughout an eternity
The ghosts of forgotten actions
Came floating before my sight,
And things that thought were dead things
Were alive win terrible might
And the vision of all my past life
Was an awful sight to face
Alone with my conscience sitting
In that solemnly silent place
And thought of far away warning,
Ut sorrow that was to be mine,
In land that then was the future,
But now is the present time.
And | thought of my former thinking
Of the judment day to be,
But sitting alone with my conscience
Seemed judgment enongh for me.
And | wondered if there was future
To this land beyond the grave;
But no one gave me an answer,
And no one came TO save.
Then felt that the future was present,
And the present would never 60 by.
For it was but the thought of my past life
Grown into eternity.
Then woke from my timely dreaming,
And the vision passed away,
And knew the far away warning
Was a warning of yesterday.
And prayed that might not forget II,
In this land beyond the grave,
That may not cry in the future,
And no one to come to save.

QUEEN by the minstrels of the ocean is
sung to their honor. Over their re-
mains the storms beat, and the same
sun shines; and there unmarked, the

honored, will sleep on until awakened
by the same trump.
