Of c~antankerous Immature. The man before
whom he was posing tried to tell him
something about his malady, but was
authoritatively silenced You need tell
me nothing" he declared impe7
riously. .sDo not speak, know everything
that you wish to tell me-" Then he proceeded
to poke and punch the poor fellow with q con
siderable amount of violence, after which the
patient was declared to be cured, and was told
to go home The same process was repeated
with the rest of the party, the man with the
swollen arm having the suffering limb most
roughly squeezed and shaken. One poor wo-
man who had a paralyzed leg was dragged out
OF her seat by the eharlatan, who told her to
"Walk-walk. / tell you4-walk," and was
then sent off. As to the handkerchiefs, they

ministration is not high, being thirty cents for
each visit, but even at that low tariff his trade
must be a most lucrative one. He does not dis
dain a certain amount of trickery, as witness a
scene which took place at his establishment last
week. A wagon drove up to his door with a man
lying PROSTATE and apparently helpless on some
straw laid upon the floor of the vehicle. d.

treated by me- An immense crowd gathered
in front of the door, and after a delay of about
an hour the man walked forth, testifying his de-
light at having regained the use Of his limbs. A
more transparent trick was never played, but of
course itimposed largely on the credulous multi
tude.

Swarming Over Their Keepers Head and
Losing Themselves in His Beard.
Phfladelphia Times.
The bee tent at the fair was the scene of a re-
markabie entertainment yesterday afternoon.
Prof. Arthur Todd, of the Wissahickon Apiary.
gave an exhibition of the method in which bees
are manipulated Quite unprotected by head
net or gloves, ne opened an old box-hive full Of
bees, took out each comb separately and trans
ferred it to a new hive. He carefully sliced off
the coverings Of the cell, and, placing the comb
in an extractor, emptied them of their sweet
contents, He sought among the crowded colony
for the queen bee, and, having found her, caught
her, showed her to his audience, who were safely
standing outside his gauze tent, then deposited
her in a little wire cage made expressly for her,
introduced her ia a polite manner to her friends,
and, when she had issued her commands for
their attendance at her new home, be put her
into the handsomely furnished hive which he
had prepared for her reception.
Nj. Todd handled the little insects as il he
were ignorant Of the fact that they all carried a
very ugly weapon, and he appeared to be on
terms of affections with them all, They erawled
over the bald part of his head, they sBarmed on
his hands and arms and they got caught III his
beard, but they seemed to think it was all play
and he appeared to enjoy the fun. The aston
ished visitors looked on him with mute admira-
ton as he lifted a frame of comb from the box
hive and showed them the eggs in some cells.
the honey in others, and AGAIN others covered
with the curious waxy substance the bees gath
erfrom their heads.
In the gauze tent with Mr.. Todd were Mrs.
Louisa Thomas. of Tacopy, one of the earliest
practical bee-keepers in this country; Mrs.
Foote, of New Haven; DR.. Townsend, president
of the Philadelphia Bee-kaepers' Association;
John Shallcross, Of Frankfort. and John Pye-
we'll. an enthusiastic bee-keeper from Bridge
port. Penn.
s.Bee-keeping.u said Mrs Thomas, us one of
the most absorbing as we'll as one of the most
lucrative employments. Bee-keepers become SO
interested in their work that any trouble that
may attach to the care of an apiary is completely
overlooked in tie pleasure it gives. This exhi
ever seen, both as regards the bees and the honey.
Tn whole work of transferring a colony Of bees
from one hive to another only occupies forty
minutes
Arthur Todd has been awarded six prizes for
his honey and bees and will receive a special
award for his clever manipulation Of his busy
little favOrites.

Chicago Times.
/ was married in India / engaged for our
honeymoon a little house-sixteen miles or so
from any other habitatien Of white men-that
stood on the steep white cliffs of the Nerbudda
river, which here flows through a canyon Of pure
white marble. Close beside our house was Il
little hut, where a holy man lived, in charge of
an adjoining shrine, earning money for himself
and the shrine by polishing little pieces of marble
as meinentoes for visitors 1t was q wonderful
place altogether, and, while my wife went in to
change her dress, the servants laid breakfast on
a Teranda overlooking the river. At the chatter
of the plates there began to come down from the
big tree that oyershadowed the house, and up
the trees that grew in the rayine behind it,
from the house-poof itself, from everywhere, a
multitude of solemn monkeys. They came up
singly, and in couples. and in families, and took
their places without noise or fuss on the veranda,
and sat there like an audience waiting for an
entertainment to commence. And when every
thing was ready, the breakfast all laid. the mon
keys all seated, 1 went in to call my wife.
Breakfast is ready, and they are all waiting, 7

just coming out in my dressing gown
Never mind, ] said. the people about here
are not very fashionably dressed themselves.
They wear pretty much the same things all the
year round
And so my wife came out. Imagine, then, her
establishments In the middle of the veranda
stood our breakfast table. and all the rest of the
space, as well as the ratings and the steps. was
covered with an immense company of monkeys,
as grave as possible and as motionless and silent
as if they were stuffed Only their eyes kept
blinking and their little round ears kept twitch-
ing. Laughing heartily, at which the monkeys
only looked all the graver, my wife sat down.
HWill they eat anything2r asked she.
TRY them" l said.
So she picked up a biscuit and threw it among
the company. And the result! Three hundred
monkeys jumped up in the air like one. and just
for an instant there was a riot that defes descrip-
ton. The next instant every monkey was sit
ting in its place. as solemn and serious IS if it
had never moved. Only their eyes winked and
their ears twitched
My wife threw them another biscuit, and
again the riot, and then another, and another,
and another. But at length we had given away
all we had to give, and got up to go. The mon
keys at once arose, every monkey on the veran-
da, and, advancing gravely to the steps. walked
down them in q solemn procession, old and
young together, and dispersed for the days oc-

SEW Tallor Dresses and Cloaks.

New York Mail and Express.
The new cloths for tailor suits are made with
a smooth face, which is sponged so that the
cloth will not shrink after wear. Many of the
new cloths for autumn are woven with a twilled
back, as a strong, low priced cloth can be made
lighter and finer in this way. There is a va
riety of handsome West of England cloths shown
in cresson green, Gordon blue, Muscoite grays.
and IN all of the fruit and dahlia shades Of the
season. Purple grape, prune color and red
plum color are all shown among the new au-
tumn cloths. Rough homespun goods in mixed
colors are among the fall impOrtations. These
times only in names; they are soft. though
heavy and rough in appearance. and will be
made into excellent sefyiceable dresses for
everyday wear. There is little change in the
way New York tailors make these costumes,
though more latitude in trimming is shown, and
fur, braid and astrakhan viii be used on the new
winner costumes. Basques are made in riding
habit style, double breasted in front and held in
a square position at the back, belted Norfolk
blouse fashion, and in simple single-breasted
cutaway coats, which are sioped away to display
a vest, the lower edge of the coat being cut in
Vandyke points and bound with braid. Tailor
overskirts are full and ample, aud draped up
high at the sides in heavy folds. The under
skirt may be slashed and fans of pleating let In
or cut in large Nandyke points, with q pleating
below. The fayorite wrap for autumn will be a
jacket. or a long Newmarket Of cloth. The new
Jackets are made exactly like q gentleman.s
Prince Albert coat they are donbIelbreasted
and medium in length. Slit pockets, either
curved, diagonal or straight, are used on these
coats, and rolled bindings of braid finish all the
edges. They are even in length all around, ex-
tending well down on the hips.
Lambs wool cloakings in dark color, astra-
khan cloakings in fine wool, and astrakhan lamb
| cloth in silk are used when the coat is intended
for general wear. Similar coats are used as an
outside wrap with suits of broadclOth or mixed
homespun goods. Jersey webbing with a woolly
hack is still used for coats and long Newmarket
listers; these coats are profusely trimmed with
cable and other heavy mohair braids, put on In
set geometric lines or circles. 1t is the fancy OF
the season TO put the braid on dresses and wraps
in such a manner that il may be fringed out and
form a fluffy border to the edges of the jacket,
