Mira. (sladstons q Speech.

Just before the close of the English
campaign the wife of the great Pre-
mier spoke at one of the meetings in
in London. The following is the cable
account. In the absence of the Grand
Old Man Mrs. Gladstone has taken the
stump. Mrs. Gladstone was eloquent
last night in the cause of Mr.. Arnold
while at Mile End. But it was the
Grand Old Mans eloquence after all,
for she read letter from her great
husband which at once fired the enthu-
siam of the closely-packed audience.
She said:
My friends-I may call you so be-
cause the East End of London is we'll

now, my friends, think / cannot do
better than give you message from
him, which, if you will allow me, I will
read. He bids you people of this coun-
try bethink yourselves of the position
in which you stand. Look back upon
the history Of the past and forward to
the prospects of the future. Listen.
Prudence, courage, honor! What a
privilege it is for you to help redress
the wrongs of Ireland. The battle is
begun. You are to help win it. Rally
round our friend, MIR. White. Think
of all his work of mercy and devotion
on other occasions. As my husband
says, in the beautiful words of oul
great poet: "Ring out the old, ring in

COurtshfp In Church.

at church in pew adjoining one in
which sat young lady, for whom he
conceived a sudden and violent pas
sion, was DESTROYS of entering into
courtship on the spot but the place
not suiting formal declaration. the
ex1gency of the case suggested the fol-
lowing plan He politely handed his
fair neighbor bible (open) with pin
stuck in the following text: Second
Epistle of John, verse tifth-''And now
l beseech of thee, lady, not as though
l wrote a new commandment unto
thee but that which we had from the
beginning, that we love one another
She returned it pointing to the second
chapter of Ruth, verse tenth-''Then
she fell on her face, and bowed her
self to the ground, and said unto him,
why have found grace in thine eyes,
that thou shou]dst take knowledge of
me, seeing that l am stranger?'"
He returned the book, pointing to the
thirteenth verse of the Third Epistle
of John-'Having many things to
write unto you, would not write with
paper and ink, but trust to come unto
you, and speak face to face, that our
ioy may be full" From the above
interview a marriage took place the
ensuing week.

Writing of Bookkeeping and gardening in the
Country Gentleman, Mr.. George A. Stockwel
says: On a small farm, Bookkeeping, if honey,
and not trade in bees and queens, be the OBJ
ject, will be profitable and satisfactory. The
outlay in labor will be very little. BY this is
not meant that the bees will take care of them
selves although they will do so very nearly;at
least, they will take themselves of, often with
out any help The gardener wishes to econo-
mize space and time, and buys, say, five colo
MES of bees, and places them on the south side
of some wall or fence, where, as he works, he
can see them and attend to them in moment,
if any service be needed.
The space required need be only the width
Of hive, and fifteen feet in length, and num-
er of such places may be found on any farm
that cannot be utilized in any other way.
southern exposure is best, but bees may be placed
anywhere, high or low-on the top Of the
house, over porch--on board shelf attached
to the side of the barn, in the attic Of the house,
in the loft in the corn barn, In any place
whatsoever. They may do better in some places
than in others, but it is sufficiently well estab-
lished that the place of the hive is of little i'm
portance, provided it is convenient for the bee
keeper, Bees have stored large quantities Of
honey in hives on the roofs of high buildings in
the centre of cities, and in other out-of-the-way
places.

HAPPY COUNTRY COUPLE

"Now that is the idyllic existence,
the truly Arcadian way of life,' con-

asses and resolutions setting forth their
manifold grievances and concluding
with this climax, which really contains
all that was important in the docu-
ment:
We, therefore, maidenly representa-
tives of New York, Boston and Phila-

that we are and of right ought to be

MOONLGlHI On The BOARD WALK.
but the always self-possessed New
York angel in a creamy gown that
somehow seemed to fit just a trifle
closer than any of the others, took up
the thread calmly where it had been
dropped.
II have a vision,' she said, ga
vision of what life will be when chap
erones are thing of the psat. 1t is a
dream of moonlig light evenings on the
board walk, of morning strolls where
the surf reaches up to catch one, of
afternoon drives and lazy hours in the
boats, with only the one companion
near to murmur his appreciation of
the new system. Like that very silly
young manin Locksley Hall, I have
dipped into the future far as human
eye can see, and there is only happl-
ness before us if we succeed. Let us
join hands now and here and agree
that from this Fourth of July. hence
forward and forevermore, we will cry
down the tyrant chaperone and insist
upon our ow n independence.
And inspired with this noble resolve
the girls clasped arms about one an
other while practical artist drew a
hasty sketch of a happy country couple
that came drifting by holding each
others hands with the careless abandon
of school children. Later on that
same evening he captured the sketch
Just above this one It was moonlight
and there was no chaperone on the
board walk this time.

An Artist.

Charlotte Deming, an artist, sup
posed to be fully one hundred years
old, has just died in New York, where
she supported herself by her painting
until i've years ago, when her right
side was paralyed. She was born in
Burlington, Vt. and moved to Platts-
burg, N. Y, where her landscape
painting had a good deal of reputa-
ton fifty years ago. She has since
lived in New York, where she has

Effect of Home.

Here is man who has been down
town all day in the full tide of care, that,
from morning to night floods the mar
kets, offices and streets of our great
cities. Tired, nervous, irritable, pos
sibly little disheartened, he starts for
his home. If it is winter. when
he enters there, is bit of bright
fire, that makes bad temper seem
like sin in the contrast !; a noise of
children that is not dissonant; and an
evident care for his comfort, telling
palmer than any words, how con-

Woes in Bread Making.

Physicians daughter says, 1 read of 80
many woes in bread-making that it is a wonder
why no one has yet suggested substituting other
food for bread. Some of the best physicians
now avoid 'suppers' and have six P. n. dinners
purposely to avoid bread and cake. There Is
no excuse for bread At breakfast and dinner,
while for supper stewed potatoes, with
poached eggs or cold meat, could form the
principal part Of the meal, adding soft custard,
with fruit and delicate cake; bread Is unneces-
sary. The children OF our family have for
breakfast hominy or oatmeal, with potatoes,
fruit, delicate meats, with milk, and prehaps
cracker. For dinner, meat or chicken, aspara-
gus, potatoes, and other healthy vegetables and
fruits, with rice or other simple dessert, while
at supper, stewed potatoes, milk, eggs or cold
chicken, cottage cheese, blanc mango, with
occasionally little simple cake.

MANSION HOUSE BELLE

But still the little band feels conf
dent of final success some day and
means to defy all authority until its
point is gained. Some of the revolu-
tionists, fired by the spirit of rs,
talk boldly of becoming martyrs in
a good cause. There is only
one they fear, especially the
Younger ones. They would not
tell what this one thing was.
Wiser men have tried to name this
thing they fear, this nameless horror,
but all in vain. If I knew more about
the training of young women l might
hazard guess, but as it is-no. II
cannot be that chaperones know aught
of the corrective effects of that which
made our youth hollow mockery.

dignity that young men do? Do chap

Declaration of Independence? Who

The next morning saw the beginning
of this new era. Usually their moth
er and their aunts and cousins came
down to see them battle, but this morn
ing the ten revolutjonists went off alone
to take their morning dip. Very pref
ty they looked and very brave, and the
fierce way they plunged into the waves
bearing back the surf even as the Ia
mented Mrs. Darlington swept back
the Atlantic Ocean, showed that the
spirit of Washington and Patrick Hen
ry still survive in the land. And the
bold way they confronted their chaper'
ones later on in the day, insisting that
they were old enough to go bathing
alone, argued i'll for the future power
of those dear, elderly ladies. Oh, chap
rome beware! Your days at Atlantic

War on Insects.

When the squashes and cucumbers open
their two first leaves the little striped bug is
very eure to pnt in an appearance, and some
times will in single day completely destroy
the young plants. The remedy is, cover the
drills we'll with thoroughly air Stacked lime as
soon as the plants up; good wood ashes will
drive the bugs away until it rains, then more
must be gifted on or the bugs will come again.
Plaster is also good, but must be renewed like
the ashes; but whatever remedy is used, the
work should be done in season. The great
danger Of this enemy is during the first few days
before the third leaf has grown. Another
enemy to the tender garden plants appears as
soon as the plants are we'll above ground, which
lie gray worm from three-fourths to an inch and
one.fourth long, usually known by the name
Of cut-worm, SO called from the fact that be cuts
the plants of just above the ground: This is
an enemy not go easily conquered. As he
works in the night, only an experienced eye
will detect his hiding place during the heat Of
the day, but very early in the morning he will
be found very near the surface, not far away
from the plant he cut off the night before.
With knife or sharp stick he may be dug out
and destroyed; this IL slow work, but sure.

10th anniversary of our country's
freedom, we mean to protest against
the chaperone as an American insti

mothers went about unguarded in this
way. and shall we now be forced to
do other than they? Cannot an Amer
lean girl be trusted by herself? For
century they have gone about unat-

Curious Scientific Fact

The network of railways of the
Kingdom of Saxony, says the Cologne
Gazette, covers nearly five miles
less in winter than in summer-a fact
which Director Kauss recently proved
in q lecture before the Dresden Indus
trial Society. It seems that steel
rail of seven and q half metres in
length, at q temperature of Is degrees
Reaumer, contracts eight millimetres :
Saxony having z, 438, 900 metres of rails
(not tracks,, the contraction from cold
aggregates q total of 800 metres.
