A Brief History of 1himbles.

Good Housekeeping assures us that the
thimble was originally called thumb bell
by the English, because worn on the thumb
then a humble, and finally its present name
1t was Dutch invention. and was fir t
brought to England in 1895. Thimbles were
formerly made only of iron and brass, but
in comparatively late years they have been
made of gold, steel, horn, ivory and even
glass and pearl In China beautiful carved
pearl thimbles are seen, bound with gold,
and with the end of gold. The first thimble
introduced into Siam was a bridal gift from
the king to the queen; 1T is shaped like a
lotus bud, made of gold and thickly studded
with diamonds arranged to spell the queens
name.

"Doubting Thomases," "

remarked an eminent divine, ''must ex st
in ratio to the too credulous." The habit
of cautiOusness is not, as general thing,
inbOrr, but is the result of naturally gem
erous and confiding nature repeatedly vic
timized by the cunning and crafty. So the
many disappointments, and often injurious
effects, arising from the use of various
vaunted remedies, have induced an undue
cautiousness, and in many cases. entire
attention to the remedies of DIR. X. V.
Pierce, of Buffalo, which physicians are
employing in their practice with the most
beneficial results. His ''Golden Medical
Discovery" for diseases of the lungs and
kidneys, heart affections, fever and ague
dropsy, and all diseases of the blood, has
never failed when put to the test.

Indian Mummies.

Many of our young folk have heard or
read of the Egyptian mummies. Owing to
the wonderful skill with which they have
been embalmed they are in as perfect a state
Of preservation as on the day they were en-.
tombed, some four or five thousand years
ago. But that nature is as skillful as art will
be seen by the following curious discovery:
Not long ago some miners were searching
in the Sierra Madre mountains of Arizona
for a cave, supposed to be filed with hidden
treasures. AS they were following an Indian
trail one of them hit something hard with his
pickax. On loosening the soil they discov-
cred, not a cave filed with gold, silver and
precious jewels, but an old Indian vault con-
tanning the remains of five human beings,
two men, a young woman and mother with
a child or s years DID, The bodies were in
perfect preservation. The features were as
distinct as in life, and the eyebrows in ma
tural state. The woman had long, fine, dark
hair. Both men and women were wrapped
in coarse, women cloth.
Now, we must remember that the Indian is
ignorant Of the art of embalming, an art that
requires much nice skill as well as thorough
acknowledgment medicine; therefore, we must
infer that the bodies were embalmed through
natural process, namely, through the dry at
mosphere and the peculiar temperature of the
vault in which they were placed. The bodies
were Immediately forwarded to San Fran
cisco, where they have been the subject of
much curiosity and discussion. They are
supposed to have belonged to one Of the four
Indian tribes Of Aztecs, Toltecs, Moquis or
Zunis. The region of the cave was at one
time the seat of an Indian empire, whose
people, judging from surviving relics, were
comparatively civilized.

How to Winter Bees.

At recent convention of Illinois bee
keepers the question, "How to winter
bees?' was disposed of as follows:
Mr.. David w. Mcdaniel preferred a
cellar, with slight upper ventilation in
each hive.
j. M. Hamburger prefers the same as
Mr.. Mcdaniel.
Mr.. Daniel Shank, nurseryman of
Clayton, preferred lower ventilation.
Mr.. T. S. Wallace winters his bees in a
cellar, and favors lower ventilation. He
cuts holes in the bottom boards and
covers them with wire gauze.
"When should bees be put into winter
quarters?"
j. NJ. Hamburger put his bees in about
Nov. 20, and takes them out sometime in
April.

Described and illustrated.
The superiority of French dressed poul.
try Is much written and talked about,
and appears to be due to three things; first
the care taken In breeding table fowls;
second, the methods of fattening; and
third the admirable way In which the
birds are trussed when offered for sale.
A common plan In France is to keep the
chickens that are to be fattened In
square pens barely large enough for
them to move in. These pens are kept
dark and warm, but are well ventilated
and clean. In these confined quarters
the birds are fed regularly and often,
on food prepared with special view to
the production Of flesh.
