4 roipt Tor nse-Kespers.

II may be interesting to bee masters
ct this season Of apiarian activity to
know that M. Jonas de Gelien, . pastor
at Neufchstel, Switzerland, In work
translated into English long ago, under
the title Of s'Ths Bee Preserver; or,
Practical Directions for Preserving or
Renewing Hives" afiirms that when
two or three distinct hives are united in
autumn they arc found to consume to-
cether scarcely more honey during the
winter that each Of them would con-
snme il left separate" In proof Of this
angular result the author sets forth
variety Of experiments, all Of which led
TO the same conclusion. He shows posi-
lively that upward Of thirty hives six
had their population thus doubled, and
consumed no mora provisions during
winter than single hive, and SO far
from the bees suffering any diminution,
the doubled hives generally sent forth
the earliest and best swarms. The
translator Of M. Gelien's work states
that he practioed In Scotland most Of the
plans recommended in the original pub
lieation with the same Effects. r.

Tortilla-Making.

In the center Of the kitchen stands its
most important factor. the metate, for
tortilla-msking. 1t Ia followed stone.
the size Of an ordinary bread bowl, hav-
ing two stone legs, about six inches
high, 1t one end, which inclines at the
angle Of forty-fve degrees. The tortil-
la-maksr kneels on the dirt floor at the
elevated end Of the metats, and, the
corn having previously been boiled In
weak lye. and still quite wet, she crushes
Il into paste with stone rolling pin, the
mixture gradually sliding down the in
clins plaae into dish placed to receive
Il. When . quantity has been thus
crushed, II is rolled into balls and left
until required. Il is astonishing what
an amount Of corn family Of ordinary
sixe will consume In day, in the form
Of tortillas, the Mexican ''staf OF life. 7"
When meal is on the tapis. the last
act In the drama-ths tragedy. we feel
inclined 10 say, when suffering the after
panQs OF .indigestion-is to heat the
ariddls. OF more commonly . smooth fiat

iump 81 once Of the prepared corn paste
and shapes 1t into thin round cakes. with
little water and much loud spatting Of
the hands, with sound exactly like
spanking babies. The cakes are then
baked brown In jiify. and, ~ substi.
tate for bread. one might go further and
fare . great deal worse than subsist on
tortillas. as.-Fannie Brigham Ward.

A sad Sight.

Speaking Of women, IL may be said
that New York has more than its share
of working girl. This results from the
vast number Of poor people living here,
the number being estimated at half
million. All the daughters Of this portion
Of the community must earn their living,
and in many instances poverty is aggra-
vated by intemperance. The appearance
Of these working. .girls is very distressing.
/ see groups Of them going in the morn
ing to their places of employment clad
in that homely raiment which indicates
need, and yet an occasional flower will
indicate . little taste. Their oountsn-
ancss are uncaltivated, and generally
have coarse expression, which one does
not find even in the poorest parts Of the
country. There we see simplicity, but
here is degradation. These poor
creatures toll patiently wherever they
may find employment, hardly make .
bare living. and often going ct last TO the
lowest haunts of vice. II Il . sad sight,
but must always characterize . great
city. .--New York Letter.

! the Ansos,on of Mockins Birds.

Some years ago there was young
physician who was loved by all on ac-
count Of bis gentle. loving disposition.
AmonG his more humble but not less de-
voted admirers was mocking bird that
had been born and raised in his garden.
The bird took the greatest fancy 70 him,
and when he returned home in the eve
ming would hop around his front steps
aud then fly to tree near by and sing
for hours at time. The bird appeared
10 be in an ECSTASY Of delight whenever
the doctor was at home. Finally the
yellow fever broke out here, and
among othern, the doctor was stricken
down. He fingered four days and then
died. On the night before his death
the watchers by his bedside had their
attention attracted by the mournful, sob
bing notes that the doctors bird" la
they called it) uttered throughout the
night: The next day the doctor died,
end that night the bird WAS silent. After
the funeral the family opened the room
70 air IL, and when the bed was drawn
aside the frat thing seen was the mock
Ing bird lying at the head Of the bed,
dead. How It got there no one knew.
but there II was, dead, as though Il
could not survive one 1t loved SO WELL
