THE SUM MER GIRL.
She n an American Product and rs Sweet
as n Rose.

huo u IN AIuerlChn GTouuCt anu ~ sWsSe
as . Rose.
The evolution of social types In Amer
lea has produced no more interesting
figure than the summer girl = the dar-
ling, the delight and despair of the sus-
ceptibie male heart Young, blooming,
vivacious and gay, she epitomizes in
her delightful personality all that is
most charming in the charming sex at
the most charming season. Her happy
fortune it is to exist only when the
skies are bright. She is summer girl
by virtue only Of the year and her life
being both in the green leaf. Accord
ingly at the seaside, in the mountains,
visiting a friend in the country, or
boarding at farmhouse, she fits before
us, joyous, bright careless, with no
thought but to be lovely and to make
the most of the bewitching influences
of idle hours in the warm sunshine or
under the tender rays of summer moons
The butterfly of her kind, her day is
short and she tastes of every flower
Let her laugh while she may, for pres
emily comes the whitening October
wind to blast her fascinating summer
costumes, to drive her indoors, and
TO metamorphose her into that sadly
uninteresting creature, the winter girl.
1t is a much-disputed question at what
age the girl blossoms into the summer
girl, If, peradventure, she ever becomes
summer girl at all-for it is not given
to all girls to attain that happy combi-
nation of physical and intellectual
charms that go to the making OF the type
of perfection under consideration. I'm
discriminating persons have held that
the summer girl stage of evolution
comedies with the age of sweet 16 in
every case. Better authorities contend,
however, that only the sweet girl grad
uate ever becomesa summer girl at that
comparatively immature age Eigh-
teen and even % are required at times
to produce the cultivation of intellect,
the poetic insight, taste in dress and
tact by which the summer girl is dis
tinguished from other pretty girls. For
intellectually, gentle as moonlight, is
one of her invariable qualities, without
which no girl, however attractive in
other respects, can for a moment claim
to be classed with her.
1t has been questioned whether the
summer girl is an annual, perishing a
the close of the first season, or has {
longer period The weight of authority
1t seems, is with those who assert she i!
biennial Some assert, in fact, that II
exceptional cases she blooms out afresf
summer after summer, until the age o
80, after which, what with neuralgi;
and rheumatism contracted in moon
light walks, she invariably retires. Bu

a Few Items About the Correct Thing In
Invitations, Calls, Etc.
According to the best social form
very young ladies do not invite guests,
especially gentlemen, in their own
names. If the mother is not living all
invitations should be written in the
fathers name. although an elderly sis
ter presiding over the house may issue
notes of invitation in her own name.
1t is not at all correct thing to in
vite lady to an ''at home" until after
you have first called on her in formal
manner, and the visit has been returned.
Calls made on reception days where
guest is staying are not binding upon
the guest to return, and no separate
card is left for guest on a reception
day, although each caller leaves a card
for the hostess, to serve as an after call.
This card is also necessary to assist the
hostess remembering all who have
called
A young lady enters the room at the
right of her chaperon. In escorting
each other ladies never offer or take
the arm. The host and hostess retain
their post of reception during the whole
evening. After brief interchange of
salutations the guests pass on to give
place to others.
invitations to "at homes" do not re-
quire answer unless one is requested; in
this case an immediate reply must be
sent. No such words as regrets"
accepts" etc, should be written on a
card; full reply should be written on
q sheet of note paper or on a card made
for the purpose.
A half hour is the conventional time
for the guests to remain at reception.

putting Sections on Hives.

In putting cases OF sections on hives
It is best not to be too fast, and to put
them on the strong colonies first 1t is
worse than useless to put them on
hives where the bees are unable to
cover more than half their combs.
Keep a close watch, and as fast as
hives become crowded put on the sec.
tions and add more as fast as needed.
There is not much need of hurry in
taking them of. Better leave them on
until all the cells are capped, but should
there be sudden failure in the yield
or at the end of the white honey crop.
they should be removed without delay.

HORSES For FARMERS.
Many Seek General Purpose Horse, Yet
Never Obtain 1t.

Never Obtain 1t.
Strictly speaking general purpose
horse is one that can do everything
that horse is called on to do. 1t is
impossible in the nature of things for
horse to be so constructed that he
can do everything. A horse to be
general purpose horse should combine
all the qualities of a runner, trotter,
a PAGER, a roadster, coacher, a sad
dler, hunter and draft horse, also
ladies' driving horse and children's
pony. The greatest value in horse
comes from his possessing some partic-
ular quality, or combination of quail
tiles in the same line, and the ability
to do one thing and do it well. The
better adapted horse is to one thing,
the more valuable he is.
The view that farmers take of gem
eral purpose horse Is one that will be
heavy and strong enough to do all the
work on the farm and at the same
time combine enough speed to make
good road horse, both single and
double. No doubt such horse is val
liable on farm. We have seen some
horses that would work with any
horse on the farm, draw two tons singly
on good road and then, with rest OF
day or two, get out on the road and
travel eight miles an hour and a mile
in three minutes or better. Such a
horse is an ideal farm horse for mos
eastern farmers. Not one farmer in
1000 owns such horse and not
one horse in 100, 900 can do that. The
general purpose horse as found or
the farm is nearly worth
less in the great markets They are
too light for any draft work, not fast
| enough for roadsters, not large enough
for coachers and so they are sold fol
| Sl00 or $125 to go on the street car ol
grocery wagon. Put 200 pounds more
weight on him and he will do for draf
work and bring twiee as much money
| Add two inches more to his height anC
draw his head up little higher by
training when he is colt and he viii
do for a coacher and bring three time
as much. Use better sire and dan
and get your horse to drive well ant
easy and go in three minutes or les
and he is worth four times as much fol
a roadster.
The majority of farmers on q lOO
acre farm keep three or more horses
For farm horses they should secure
mares that weigh at least 1, 100 pounds
and 1900 pounds or more is better. j
these mares are strictly of the draf
type, they should be bred to a pure
blooded draft stallion of good weigh
and size, and the colts will be wort
something to sell. Or if the mares ar
tall and not so bloclsy they may b
bred to good coach stallion with
view of raising coachers. One or tw
horses weighing 1000 or 1,05o pound
apiece could be kept to do the drivin
and at the same time they would b
useful in drawing the moving m;
chine, hay rake, cultivator and doin
other light farm work. The soone
farmers get out of the idea of tryin
to raise a general purpose horse an
go in for a special purpose the nor
money they will make from their farm

piclzets used in such fences are gener-
ally inches wide with spaces from
to 8 inches, it can readily be seen that
this fence will turn all kinds of farm

Canada Mourns Sir Johns Death.

TORONTO, Ont, June S.-From almost
every point in Canada come tidings of
universal sorrow at the death of Sir John
Macdonald. Everywhere signs Of mourn
ing are TO be seen. Arrangements are
made to fire five minute guns at Ottawa
and every city in Canada during the pro-
gress of the funeral Of the dead premier.
There is strong feeling that an autopsy
ought to be made on the body of Sir John
by independent medical men in order that
the public may know what really was the
cause Of death.
A special dispatch from Ottawa says
All sorts of rumors are flying around to-
dag as to whom the governor general will
call upon to form q new government 1t is
said to-day no one had yet been summoned
by the governors general and that 1t was not
probable any one would be until
after the funeral. That a delay
of at least five days is almost without pre-
cedent. 1t gives point TO curious story
afioat 70 the effect that the governor gen.
eral left meeting of the Royal society at
Montreal rather hurriedly last Wednesday,
and called upon Sir john Macdonald at
Earnscliffe next day. 1t is said Sir John
then indicated whom he thought should be
called upon TO form new ministry in case

editorial on ''The Duty of the Hour"

In death. Remember that those who would
abandon British rule on this continent and
hand US over to the dominion of foreign
country, have for years had their ghoulish
hopes placed on the death of the leader
that they may undo the work which he has
done; that the self-convicted traitor who
became the moutnpiece once of a great
party, declared in a reasonable pamphlet
which the grand OLD man himself dragged
to light, that whatever course the United
States may see Mt to adopt, it is plain that
Sir Johns disappearance from the stage is

Cereals are now higher than at any period
during the last thirty years. In Nurem-

unanimously adopted resolution praying
the Bavarisn government to propose a sus-
pension Of the duties on breadstuffs. Other
municipalities are following the example
set by the Socialists and are holding meet
ings throughout the entire country. incit-
ing the populace to vigorous action, and as
public evaporation has attained great
height owing to the privation and suffering
consequent on the almost prohibitive duties
on breadstuffs, terrible scenes are almost
certain to occur unless swift and excep-
tional measures are adopted. The situation
of the working people in Saxonyis steadily
growing worse. 1t has reached that stage
now when it certainly seems to call for
some emphatic government action, if such
thing is possible. Official statistics just
concluded show the weekly wages of the
women lacemakers are 81 cents. Lace
men workers make ) shillings per week, and
thus they are kept on the very verge of
starvation. Bread and potatoes in the
meantime are steadily rising.
a Berlin court OF law has just decided it
is not lese majestic to impute Socialistic
ideas to his majesty. The Emperor's court
holds the doctrine that these so-called Soci-
slistic ideas have been already recognized
by certain laws already enacted, in fact the
learned court takes rather complimentary
view of the object and says: IF Social
list calls the Emperor also a Socialist, it
must of necessity be assumed he desires to
pay the highest compliment in mis- power to
his imperial majesty because the title So
cialist stands il his estimation as the very
highest incarnation of spiritual. moral,
physical and political perfection, and what
greater compliment can a man pay even to
his emperor than 10 assert said emperor
has attached to what Buddhists call karma
or universal purity!''
