ON St. Valentines day city
doctor committed the folly of sending
the traditional missive to three
charming but petite young girls.
Having faclle pen he designed a
big bruin standing erect and regard
ing with curious wonder three little
ducks. Proud of his effort, he after.
ward asked the brightest of the
three demoiselles what she thought
the little ducks were saying to the
bear. Undoubtedly, quack! quack
quacks" came the instant response.

--DR. T. C. Thompson, of the firm
of Thompson, George & Co., whole
sale druggist, Galveston, Texas, says
that to his own personal knowledge
English Female Bitters is q most
wonderful medicine for the cure OF
chronic female complaints. He knew
OF case in Galveston, considered al
most hopeless, which resisted all
medical aid from the profession.-
She was induced to try the Bftters
and commenced improving at once,
and was finally entirely cured by
their use. Similpr cases are record
ed all over the country and no fe-
male afflicted with any disease pecu
liar to her sex, should fail to use
them. Az a uterine tonic and female
regulator it has no equal, for married
and single.

riance had been quite different this
inter from that of any previous
wear. He had only FIVE stands of
bees left alive out of forty. For
want of time he had neglected to
mack his chaff hives last fall, hence
his loss. Previously, when he had
protected his bees, he lost scarcely
any.
nrovide better winter quarters for
onr bees in order to insure success,
especially as our winters are so
changeabIe in this high altitude.
He had placed some of his bees I'M
der shed roofs packed with chaf,
with a movable front ten feet long
and two feet wide, leaving four
inches back and front, boxing the
entrance, leaving passage for the
bees through the movable front.
The hot rays Of the sun will not so
easily cause the bees to fly, until the
air is sufficiently warm for them to
return home again. This makes a
cheap chaff hive, as six hives can be
placed together in one packing, and
be kept warm until late spring, thus
inducing early brOoding. They
must have upper ventilation and
chaff cushions in upper box. In
Dixie scarce any bees die because OF
the cold.
The meeting was we'll attended,
and an increased desire to make
Utah a success in bee culture was
manifested, that the land may
flow with honey as it now does with
milk.
The meeting adjourned until Oc-
tober 9th, p. m. at the same place.

Zunl Method Of Managing Husbands.
Among the zuni Indians, who have
recently come to the front BY coming
East for ocean water, there is said TO be
social custom that might be worth
adopting in more civilized circles. In
Zuni-land the houses belong to the
women instead Of the men, so q man
can marry without first being obliged to
buy or hire house; marrying men are,
therefore: abundant among the zunis.
On the other hand, man who marries
can only occupy his wife's house during
good behavior, the wife having always
the right to put an unsa7Cry husband
out OF doors. This is privilege that
would raise many an American wife from
abject slavery to the rank Of equal
partner in the coniugal firm. But,
whether for husband or wife, the Zuni
plan is an advantageous one it en-
courages early marriages, assures every
woman OF home, so that she need not
marry merely to get one, and it keeps
husbands In order, for almost any man
viii behave himself u, by SO doing, he
can avoid the onerous duty Of paying
rent.
Gloucester County Democrat. (Woodbury, N.J.) 1878-1932, 1882-06-22
WORDS Or WISDOM.

Character is the diamond that scratches
every other stone.
Happiness j. something to hope for,
and something to love.
Acts, looks, words, steps, form the
alphabet by which you spell character.
Let no one overload you with faycrs !;
you viii find it an insuEerable burden.
IdIeness is hard work to those who
are not used to ii, and dull work to
those who are.
Leisure is sweet to those who have
earned it, but burdensome to those who
get it for nothing.
IL is astonishing how much easier it
is to do evil than bear to be told Of the
evil we have done.
The shortest life is long enough il it
leads to better, and the longest is too
short if it does not.
It is more from carelessnesg about the
truth than intentional lying that there
is so much falsehood in the world.
Train your children in politeness and
unseIfshness in all little things, and
the greater viii come without an effort.
Though Judgment is not SO rare In
youth as is generally supposed those
who do not possess it early are apt to
miss it late.
Throughout the whole web of national
existence we trace the golden thread Of
human progress toward q higher and
better estate.
Every idea, from the moment Of its
emergence, begins to gather material
force and after q little while makes
