Split slightly the end of one match,
says the Boston Globe, then cut slant
ingly the end of second one, which is
to be inserted in the divided end of the
first forming an acute angle. Place
them on the table, the summit of the
angle at the top, leaning against third
match, as represented below.
These are all the preparations needed.
Give fourth match to any one pres

The Best Color for Hives.

In painting hives, says Farm, Stock
and Home, dark colors should be
avoided, for in extreme hot weather the
combs in such hives will melt down,
while in a hive which is painted white
no damage will be done. Such melting
down of combs often comes in the
times of scarcity of honey in the fields,
so that robbing is started by the honey
running from the hives, when the in.
mates are in no condition to defend
themselves; and from this cause and
the spoiled combs much damage is done

The Degradation OF Pennsylvania
palitiCS.


The story of the political enslave.
ment of the State of Pennsylvania
by bosses in politics, to a degree,
perhaps, which no other State
in the Union has reached, is told in
the November mum Der of the For
um by Mr.. Herbert Welsh, the lea
der of the Independents in Philq-
delphia. The beginning of this
boss rule was the rise of the elder
Cameron, whom Mr.. Lincoln was
obliged to depose from his cabinet,
and who secured the succession of
his son in the United States Senate.
Beginning with this early chapter
in the degradation of Pennsylva-
MIA politics, Mr.. Welsh traces the
consequences through the regime of
Mr.. Quay, and ne brings his nara.
tive down to the present time,
when the revolt against corruption
caused the election of Governor
Pattison, and the disclosure of the
robberies of the State aud the fall
ures of the banks iu Philadelphia.

EDUCATIONAL.

The primary school has q bank
to which those who wish may con-
tribute their pennies. The pro-
ceeds in time we believe are to be
used in purchasing nice picture
for the school room. We like the
idea for it teaches little ones econ
omy, and at the same time there
is an educating influence in good
pictures of patriotic men and
scenes that is obtained in no other
way. Parochial schools already
recognize this and are decorating
their halls and rooms with copies
of the best examples of art. We
see no reason why the time will
not come when the portraits of
Clay, Calhoun, Webster, and kim
dred spirits shall decorate the
walls of every school and shall be
regarded in the same light as our
national flag or even the spelling
book.
Our janitor says it does not re-
ouire one-half the fuel to warm the
rooms that it did before the stoves
were changed.
The high school elected Atrial
Soule librarian for the term. The
library is open each forenoon re-
cess to all the schools. At that
hour the librarian will attend to
the wants of all. The following
are some of the more important
rules:
|. Books are loaned to pupils
only. They must not relend them
to others.
II. Books may be retained two
weeks, but a fine of one cent day
will be collected for keeping a
book longer than two weeks.
III. All fines will be applied to
keeping the books in repair and
covered.
". Any damage to a book
must be made good. If a new
book is purchased in the place Of a
damaged one, the old one will
be given to the purchaser.
'. All books must be recorded
when received and cancelled when
returned.
We notice that a call for a spe-
cial school meeting has been
posted. Let all consider the mat
ter and turn out, for in matters of
this sort the will of the maj ority
should rule. Do not pass the mat
ter lightly by but consider all sides
of the question. What better in
vestment can young man or wo-
man of good sense make than a
good education! w.
