In relation to purifying beeswax a
bee-keeper writes: The best plan that
know OF is 10 melt ten pounds of wax
in a vessel, after having first put in the
same one pint of strong vinegar, to-
gether with one quart of water. After
all is melted. set the vessel from the fire
and wrap it in several thicknesses OF
blanket or old carpet, so it will cool
slowly. BY this plan the wax is in agi-
tation while liquid and all impurities
worked to the top or bottom. If strained
before putting through this process
there will be nothing but dross at the
bottom, with nothing on top. ALBANY

hundred reasons given for falling in

The Exquisite Pleasure Afforded by

In this broad land teeming with

for families to become widely separated

frequently occurs that mother must
travel a thousand miles or more in Or
der to visit her several children and
their families. The exquisite pleasure
afforded by family reunion is, alas!
too seldom enjoyed. Not always is it
convenient for sons and daughters to
leave their homes and little ones to
gather around tie old hearthstOne.

HATS AND BONNETS.
Feminine Adornments Which are Eccentr

Feminine Adornments Which are Eccentric
and Dressy.
From present indications it is safe to
infer that hats are going to be worn by
misses and even youthful matrons in
preference to bonnets. One of the
novelties in black straw is bound about
its brim with putting of black velvet 1t
is trimmed very full in front, of high
crown with gold net tissue. covered
over with black lace and large cluster
of buds and roses, intermingled with
straw lilies of the valley and gilded
grasses and wild oats. creating a very
dressy effect.
One of the eccentric hats has one side
in shape of crescent while the other
side is formed like bent full moon.
the extra half standing high above the
crescent side. which is filled in with
high ornament of peculiar birds head
and wings and tufts of ostrich feathers
These irregular sides are faced with
velvet and the moon portion is decor
ated with gold gauze ribbon, with velvet
stripes. put on in loops and knots.
Ostrich plumes are not often used.
still they are sometimes seen on stylish
hats. as in one of brown and gold
straw, with high crown and brim turned
down on one side and up on the other.
faced and trimmed with velvet and
showing in front a cluster of five tips
with one long plume passing over the
side OF the crown and reaching down to
the brim in the back
Another hat, with rather lower crown
and rolling brim, corded at edge of
brim with gold. has band of velvet
about crown and is trimmed in front
with . profusion of variegated velvet
leaves. a chenille basket holding
humming birds in Illuminated hues. one
of the charming birds resting upon the
handle of the chenille basket.
A charming little bonnet in toqne
shape is covered with cloth of gold put
on full over a frame covered with gar
net or red silk, SO that the shades are
most effective. The brim is pulled and
the trimming consists of gauze leaves
embroidered in colors and veined with
gold, small scarlet flowers, with gold
and green leaves and a branch of gilded
wild oats standing over the flowers.
For visiting. becoming bonnet has
the front of Alicante velvet in large
puff. The crown is formed of net,
covered with a lace appliqued, with
velvet circles embroidered with gold
thread. A large rosette of ostrich tips.
fiecked with gold and gold aigrette i'm
its center. finishes this stylish bonnet.
Still another odd bonnet has front in
v shape. The brim is formed Of velvet.
laid in folds on inside and outside, each
fold being secured by an ornamental
gold-headei pin. SO the effect is as if
the br.m was finished with curiously
carved gold beads. Inside cluster OF
velvet leaves and flowers are arranged.
filling the front The crown is covered
with puff of lace and loops of en-
broidered ribbon, which also forms
strings. are clustered in front and stand
up above the crown.-Philadeiplia

THEY talk of money being scarce
and yet there appears to be no doubt
about fraudulent ex-president set
ting $4,000 given to him, though
gifts have been freely extended before.
Vanderbilt has judgment against
Gen. Grant for that sum and straight
way Vanderbilt subscTiDes $4,000
towards making up the sum nee
essary to relieve the property of the
ex-president from attachment. The
money will be contributed to relieve
the property. AS the case now stands,
Vanderbilt is Grants sole protector
against a horde OF hungry cred
itors, with no nonsense of
sentiment about them, who would
swoop down on all his effects if they
were given the chance. 1t is suppos.
ed, therefore, that by an understand
ing among all tt csc contributors to
another Grant fund, Grants effects
will be formally sold to satisfy the
Vanderbilt Judgment, and bid in by
him ana others and then made over 10
Grants representative III a way to
avoid subsequent seizure. What right
has Grant to this or other property
when Grant & Ward swindled confid-
ing people of ten or fifteen millions
of dollars. This last gift, added to the
$250.000 already given him, increases
the Grant fund to $4,000 Money is
certaily very scarce.

The STOCK IN Liverpool is 1866 hti7S less
than last year, and 10000 bales i,Ss than i'll
1888.
Sock in United States porjs is g 81 tales
less than last year, and Eu.Gt% al re Ian il
1888.
From this Statemen; II appears that
''.s tnta1 VISIBLE supply Of cotton in
to- :. a.. .. .y54.c . les less than
last t;.r, and 94,912 bales less titan in
1883. The decrease in visible supply
is in consequence OF the enormous
consumption of Gotten, which is as
great as last year and greater than il
1883. The export demand for cotton
has been very great this season, tor
although general business throughout
the world has been dull, ard IA heavy
shrinkage in values OF all kiT.as has
occurred, AID although some leading
products have been over-produced,
the present condition OF cotton is
strong. Receipts at the United States
ports have been free, but great string
ency in money matters in the south,
an unusually fine picking season and
perfected means of Transportation
have ali combined to cause an early
movement of the crop. So free a
movement out of crop of but moder-
a. size must cause more than unus-
uaIly abrupt falling off in receipts at
an early date. In view Of all these
facts, it is clear that the question of
TIE cotton supply for the coming year
Is of great Importance. That the
acreage will be as large as it was last
year is unlikely. The financial con-
dition of the planting interest is such
that a laIge outlay Of money is nee
eS5ary to make the new crop, but it
is almost certain that the prevailing
depression in business and the timid-
ity of capital will cause merchants
and factors to greatly lessen their adj
vances, and in some instances to cut
them off altogether. This will have
an influence on planting. and may
also affect the price in the spring
To sum up the position, continues the
circular, many mills have been closed,
or are running on short time; and the
stocks of goods having greatly dimin-
ished, the demand for cotton will
continue large While the supply will
grow smaller. 1t is predicted that
general business viii improve, and
cotton is commercial article which
is quickly affected by any improve.
