dress goods, in dress trimmings and In
all millinery goods. With the pur-
plish marine blues cardinal red will be
restored for contrasts, while the bright
poppy reds will be used with the new
olives, which have more green than
the brownish and yellow-tinted olive
shades of last year. Black will be re-
stored to the favor it formerly had for
young and old alike, and which it has
never really lost with rich women who.

Salammbo and serpcnte and canard,

entirely different from the peacock
blues, or the cadet gray blue Of past
seasons. The new browns are rose
wood and nsure (mulberry) for very
dark shades, with lighter capucine,
cafe, and maroon tints, while for the
red-browns are Etruscan and Acgi0u
or mahogany. Dahlia and heliotrope
and plum shades are in great favor
with French women, and will make
refined costumes of cloth or velvet.
while for lighter dresses for the house
are Ophelia and mauve shades of CASH

name given to the Salammbo blue
tints. Suede, salmon, corn and rose

To quiet an instruction among the
flies inhabiting the house which we pay
a high rent per month for, we one day
this week purchased a sheet of this
sticky fly paper. The track on this
kind of paper is supposed to be several
seconds heavy for flies. The manufact.
urers even hint in type seven inches
high that the walking on it is so ex-
ceedingly bad for flies that they will
mire down and never get across.
The prospect for fly promenade
on it is certainly very poor, some.
thing which they evidently noticed, as
they boycotted it from the start. We
tried running them down and sticking
them onto the paper. This was slow
and far from satisfactory.
We afterwards mounted the paper on
the broom and slashed it around the
room ten or fifteen times and found
that the plan was very successful. The
first sweep brought down a costly vase
which warm political friend. who is
also in the grocery business, presented
us with on the occasion of our pur-
chasing can Of baking powder OF
him. Another wild sweep and an ele-
giant plaque, painted by our wife and
representing pale blue tree ON a yell
low background, was in ruins. Our
experience was that it is not difficult to
exterminate the fly in this way.
Mounted on chair in the center of
the parlor or drawing-room, and swing
ing the death-dealing paper about, we
soon made it very uncomfortable for
him amid the wreck of costly paintings,
the fall of the heavy lambrequin and
the general smash-up of the marble
statue, the high-priced hangings, the
imported chandelier, the jointed stove
pipe, the plastering and the decorated
profanity. Life to the ill-starred fiy
on that occasion was but a hollow,
bowling mockery. No CLEAN of hope
shone athwart the murky depths
of the black night of despair
which. shut down around those
flies. Everything pointed to hor-
rible death without ray of hope. The
accumulated wealth of years crashed
around him and there was no currant
pie in which to hide. All was dark
ness, all was gloom, all was despair

A MISUNDERSTANDING.
Why Mrs. Sharpe and Mrs. Cresus DO
Not Sneak as They Pass BY.


II am going to have the celebrated
Prof. Won Dunkelheim at the reception
tonight" said Mrs. Marlborough
Cresus to Mrs. Sharpe; she's great
acquisition-so very profound and
learned, you know-but he won't talk.
Nobody has succeeded in making him
talk. If there's anybody at Newport
that can draw him out, my dear, it's
you, and | want you to try your Skill
on him."

'Butter." Chat was what Mrs.
Sharpe understood Mrs. Marlborough
Crmsus to say.)
''ButterP Why, that's a queer fad
for learned professor. But I'll do my
best"
"That evening at the reception Mrs.
Sharpe opened out bravely upon Prof.
Won Dunkelheim at the first opportu-
nifty.
GAS we were driving out on the
island this afternoon, professor" she
said: II saw some of the most beauti-
full herds of Jersey cows that I have
ever seen in my life.
"Ahp"
"And at one place the cows beyond
the fence contemplated us with such
gentle, tender eyes and such soulful
moos that for a moment / forget their
practical value in their aesthetic attrac-
tions. But after all, I thought, it is
not for their beauty that we should
value them, but for the butter they
produce. -
"Um"
Mrs. Sharpe ratified on about the cows
for conversational mile or two with
out drawing out any response from the
professor. ut is because he thinks I
don't know any thing about the way
butter is made that he won't talk"
thought Mrs. Sharpe. swell, / will
convince him that / do know something
about it." And she proceeded to dis
cuss the creamery methods in vogue in
Vermont, with an infinite deal of talk
about coolers and temperature and me-
chanical butter workers, and SO on.
She hadn't crammed on the subject all
the afternoon for nothing.
But not word could she get out OF
the professor beyond .'Um'' and "Ah."
He was plainly very much bored, and
edged away after awhile. Mrs. Sharpe
was in despair.
Presently Mrs. Marlborough Cresus
got her into the corner. and said:
"Why, what in the world do you
mean by talking forever to Prof. Won
Dunkelheim about cows, and cream
cries, and all that sort of thinge"
..Isn't that his speciality Didn't you
tell me SOP"
"Why, never in the worldn'
"What is it, then, for Heavens

''Buddah, of course. He's written
any number of books about Buddhism"
There is marked GOODNESS now be-
tween Mrs. Sharpe and Mrs. Marlbor-

A Great Poets Inimitable Tact.
Boston Pilot

Mr.. l.; ngfe'low once sat in Boston
street-car chatting TO an acquaintance,
when lurly rustic sitting beside him,
moved by something in the poets talk,
suddenly asked: ''Bs you i'll the wool

farmer murmUrei: PPM in the hop busi-
ness, myself" Then the courteous poet,
instead of letting the talk drop, turned to
the man and said: 81 have often b. en-
struck with the beauty of that plant-its
way of growing. its blossoms, and then
the hops themselves" The hop man was
delighted. He brought his horny hand
down heavily on Mr.. Longfellow's knee
and shouted 'Splendidp in a tremeudoug
voice.

Nine Spanish Kings and Queens.

There are at the present time, in
Guiding the Carlist dynasty in partibus.
no fewer than nine Kings and Queens
of Spain. First, there is the infant
King upon the throne, and his mother,
the Queen Regent; then come the ex-
Queen Isabella and her husband, King
Francis; thirdly. the ex-King Amadeo,
brother Of the King of Italy; and last
ly, the four Carlists--Don Juan Ill.
and his Queen, Dona Beatrix of Este,
the former of whom abdicated in favor
of his son, Don Carlos, who, with his
wife, Dona Margaret, makes up the
total. An anecdote is told of the ex-
King Amadeo paying visit to the ex-
Queen Isabella in Paris few years
ago, when Don Carlos was announced,
whereupon Amadeo took his leave, OBJ
serving with smile: 81 don't think
three sovereigns of Spain ought to be
in one room. "-Vanity Fair.

WHITENING BEES.

A Method Which Has Successfully Stood
the Test of Twenty-Five Years.
In his early experience Mr.. Ira Bar
Der, of New York, had experienced all
the troubles thai now come to so mans
in wintering, and had tried all manners
and places that appeared reasonable,
but, as a rule, he lost from thirty to
seventy-tive per cent. Hehas now, for'
twenty-five years, been successful IN
wintering his bees in a warm, damp
cellar. He preferred warm atmos.
phere because it was the bees natural
element, and damp one because the
bees were more quiet and healthier
He took caps from the hives and with
them paved the cellar bottom, and then
set the hives upon them, packing them
closely together. If the bees became
uneasy and left the hive. they entered
some other and no harm was done.
In warm cellar, where the tempera-
ture is from sixty degrees to ninety
degrees, there is no discharge from the
bees unless it is in a dry state. The
cellar must be closed. with no current
Of air passing through it to arouse the
bees. A three-inch pipe at the toPol
the room furnished sufficient yentila-
tion for two hundred colonies. No up
ward ventilation is given the hives;
The warm atmosphere disposed OF all
the moisture arising from the bees
hence no absorbents were needed.
The bees were put in the cellar before I
the advent of cold weather and nos
taken out until there was something
to do in the spring. The bees were
wintered upon natural stores and tis
pollen left in.-Farm, Field ard stoe&' 4
