That Question of Ventilation About Which
Tbisa0rna

That Question of Ventilation About Which
Apierists Disagree.
The question as to ventilation seems to
De difficult one TO settle. At one time
upward ventilation seems to be in great
est favor. Then again the tide seems to
set in favor of having everything on top
sealed as tight as drum. The trouble
is that there are cases Of entire success
and also of utter failure with each, and
the difficulty is to tell how much OF the
success or the failure is to be attributed
to the presence or absence Of this or that
kind Of ventilation, and how much to
things entirely independent of ventila-
ton.
Perfect wintering is reported with the
most widely differing systems, as also
failures The lamented Quinby, at least
before the advent of movable comb hives,
advocated no cover whatever over bees
in cellars in winter. This was accom-
plished in box hives by the very simple
expedient of turning the hive upside
down, thus leaving the most ample ven
tilation above, with everything sealed
tight below. The exact opposite of this
has been Of late successfully practiced,
alright above and everything entirely
open below, OF at least a space of two
inches under the bottom bars.
Perhaps the truth is, says The Ameri-
can Bee Journal, that it doesn't matter
SO much where the air gets to the bees,
SO they get enough Of it and provided
there be no strong draft through the
cluster. So "a gable cover for ventila-
ton does not seem to be considered nee
essary by a great number, provided
there be ample ventilation below. There
may be something, however, in the
claim that more than merely one thick
ness of board should be over the bees
when wintered outdoors.

up the authors studies of lifetime in

pretty specimens of bookmaking.

strength, to discover II 1t be true. THE
was the plan OF the great Kepler when
be discovered the law OF the planetary
orbits. Intuitively he guessed that the
orbits are ellipses, figured out the pro-
portion, applied his theory and found 1t
to be true.
A careful study OF the laws OF mes
merism will indicate the manner in
which an embodied mind can make
itself receptive to the influence OF
disemb bodied mind. Willingness and
passiyity are two principal conditions.
As has been said the direct evidences OF
immortality comes only ae personal
experience.
Turning again to the sacred books,
whose writer's teach immortality, valu-
able hints may be had as to the manner
of getting the direct evidence.
"Where two or three are gathered to-
gether in My name there am in their
midrt," were the words of the Savior OF
ths world.
On the day of Pentecost Els disciples
were all gathered with one accord"
They rendered their minds passive by
prayer to the invisibles, and were blessed
with the gifts of the spirit. namely,
visions, frances. clairvoyance, clair au-
dience, tongues, healing, propheciess
naturalization, etc.
Itwould be as difficult to convince the
unreasonable skeptic OF this truth as it
would be to make the eyeless fish OF the
Mammoth cave believe that the Bun
shines. Yet it is fact that such phe-
nomena are manifested today, and many
people do get the direct evidence OF the
Immortality OF the soul.
How, then, are these phenomena OBJ
tanned? 1t Is known that generally one
out of every five persons assembled is
peculiarly susceptible to mesmeric in-
fluences. Let such number seat them
selves around small wooden table in q
darkened room, and placing their hands
upon the table, await results. 1t is not
necessary that the sitters should be-
lieve or wish for anything. The general
result will be, after few minutes, that
the table will, apparently OF its own
volition, as il il possessed inteliigences
move around, mere or less VIC.
lently according as the sitters have
observed meemeric conditions. Let q
code OF signals be agreed upon with the
invisible power, or let one sitter call the
alphabet. when tip or rap will desig-
nate letters and thus made words and
sentences.
Having thus opened communication,
instructions can be obtained how to
proceed for development. The more
pleasing gifts of clairvoyance or en-
trancement often follow, still greater
mysteries in themselves. There is only
one solution of these phenomena,
namely, they are produced by intelli-
gences, the spirits OF the departed, inn
mortal souls. B A. @. SrEPHENs.

The Adsptabiiity of Women.
New York Worlc.

Man is q creature of cast-iron meth
ode. Woman adapts herself to circum-
stances. A man refuses to drive q nail
unless he has hammer. A woman does
not hesitate to use o poker, or the heel
OF her shoe or the back OF a brush. Man
thinks it absolutely necessary to have
,corckecrew to draw a cork. Woman
will gouge il out with her scissors, or q
knife, or button hook. II 1T won't come
out it will go down, and. after all, the
contents OF the bottle are what is want
ed. A man regards razor ae conse-
Grated to one calling. A woman has q
higher opinion OF it's versatility, and
uses it to sharpen pencils. This office
surreptitiously performed leads her hus-
band to cay malignant things about
razors and their makers. When a man
writes he demands pomp and circum-
stances, and as wide an orbit as one OF
the planets. Pen, ink and paper must be
'just so'' and he shuts up the whole
family il. a tower OF silence and nobody
is allowed to think hard. When O wo-
man writes she gathers up nondescript
paper, atray copy book leaves, backs OF
old envelopes, aharpens her pencil with
her acissofe and, placing her material
on an old atlas, tucks one foot under
her, rocks comfortably back and forth.
bites her pencil periodically and pro-
duces literature. She is oblivious to
Tommie distractedly adding and sub
tracting in high key; to Mollie
beating French verb into her brain by
a succession OF audible thumps and
much vibrant buzzing; to Sallie running
the scales; to the cook who demands
supplies every few maments. She makes
her lover WOO and quarrel and marry
and the villains kill each other in the
moat circumscribed space.
