There exists q difference of opinion
among bee men as to the value of sec
tons partly drawn out and left over tc
the next season. Some think that these
are only fit to be melted up. Others &c
to the other extreme and think they are
worth very much more than sections
filed with fresh foundation. The editor
Of The American Bee Journal inclines
to the latter view, and says:
If the sections are clean we would not
hesitate to use them over again. But
we should not want to put on such Sec
tions without knowing that they had
been thoroughly cleaned out by the bees.
For if q last years section should be
put on this year right in the busy stor-
ing time, and particles of granulated
honey should be present, it is possible
the bees would go on filing up with
fresh honey without cleaning out the
old granulated honey. and thus the new
would be injured by the old.
1t is not necessary that the sections
should be put on the hive to be cleaned
out after extracting, but it is decidedly
necessary that they be put somewhere
for the bees to clean out. They'll make
sursr work of it off the hive than on.
Put your supers of sections somewhere
where the bees can visit them, protect
ing them from rain, and allow very small
entrances SO that only two or three bees
can pass at a time. If you allow too free
access, the bees will tear the combs tc
pieces.

If a bill must be sent in letter, the
safest plan is to roll it tightly into the
shape of lamplighter and lay it in the
fold of the sheet inclosed. Arranged in
that fashion, the fact that it is money
cannot well be distinguished by the
''feel." A thread, with a knot at the
end, will not be SO likely to fetch tell
tale fragment of the fiber paper when
drawn by means of needle through the
envelope, and the smell of it will be less
perceptible. So peculiar is the efluvium
belonging to bank or treasury notes that
experts at the bureau of engraving say
that they can distinguish them when
sealed in envelopes by the nose every
time. A thief once showed to govern
ment detectives who had caught him
that he could pick out, while blindfolded,
from pile of 400 letters every one of
seven which contained paper cash mere
ly by scent.-W ashington Star.

To be a pet of the public sometimes
has its disadvantages. M. Paderewski,
for instance, keeps up his reputation only
at the cost of tremendous efforts. To
an interviewer for Black and White he
has confded the fact that he practices
at the piano often for is or is hours a
day. Once, in New York, he had to work
up eight entirely distinct programmes in
little over as many days, and then it was
a case of II hours practice daily. One
must always be at it, he explains, to
keep the fingers right and the memory
active. The work is certainly firing,
and NJ. Paderewski considers that play
ing billiards. game he is very fond of
has saved his life by affording him the
necessary relief from his arduous work.
Those crashing blows of his on the
piano are not, as some might imagine,
made with the closed fist. Sometimes
they are done with the third finger stiff
ened out, sometimes with the thumb
sideways. He seems to see nothing won
derful in the effect produced, although
his hands are so delicate that an ordi-
narily firm shake makes him vince. 1t
is true that he has a forearm such as a
professional strong man might envy, so
perfect Is it in it's muscular develop
ment.-London Daily News.

Putting Away Bacon Hams.

The following plan is recommended by
q Rural New Yorker correspondent as
the very best for putting away hams
for summer use on the farm. He says:
After the hams have been properly
sailed and smoked, put each in com
mon muslin sack-I make mine of -four
sacks or cheap brown muslin and as
nearly the shape of the ham as I can
roughly block it out, but they are never
perfect fits. Then stitch a firm loop
made of scrap Of cotton folded and
stitched at one end. Have your sacks
large enough at the open side so that
after the ham is in you can fold the open
edges over well and sew tightly. Now
have ready tub or big bucket of slaked
lime that is creamy in thickness and
warm enough to penetrate cotton easily.
Put wire hook in the loop on the sack
and dip the latter up and down with the
ham in it of course) several times in the
lime water until you are sure the pores
of cloth are filed with the lime. Hang
them up In the air till perfectly dry,
then lay or hang away anywhere that is
convenient.

An oldFsmily.


Several years ago there was an old
family in Pennsylvania named Roth.
Indeed the long line of Roths was about
all the family had to show by way OF
distinction, and so much did they make
of the long branches of the family tree
and the Niagara of blue blood that had
in centuries past coursed through their
veins that people of the more recent gen
erations really began to think these
Roths were of some account.
One evening there happened to be
party in the little town of M, and
beside the great Roth family the guests
numbered among others young DIR.
Sharp. He was q popular and rising
physician and considered by matchmak-
ing mammas particularly desirable
catch.
Mrs. Roth had four manageable
daughters, so at the first favorable OPP
portunity she cornered the young doctor
and sought to impress upon him the i'm
portance of her wonderful family.
"Why, doctor" she said, 1--WE all came
over on the Mayhower, SO l know you
will not think me bold in asserting that
the Roths are really one Of the first fam
lilies"
pardon me-" replied the young ply
stefan, 'sbut / have no hesitation in say
ing that your family enjoys even great
er distinction"
''Oh, DOCTOR" gushed the old woman,
giving herself congratulatory hug on
her coming triumph. Indeed you fat
ter us"
'Not at all" he replied, 'for I know
you are the first family"
"Who told you that, dear doctor"
1.-THE Bible" he replied reverently,
"for it says the Lord was Roth."-Bos-
ton Budget.

DREAMING.


The cooling fingers of the twilight lay
A balm upon the fevered ebb Of day,
And. languor lulled by dream winged spirits In
their flight
Between the half uncertain hours of dark and
light,
dream of thee.
Trilled through the silvery sphere of fading
A late bird homeward wings it's wearied way;
And, through the wide tranquility of upper
sea
Attunes his vesper note of faroff minstrelsy
To songs Of thee.
Far from the west the sentinel Of light
Sets the dead affairs of approaching night
Ahame, and paints the ambient skies with
mystic gold,
Whose liquid light reflects the happiness Of old
OF me with thee.
The sky, the air, the sea, the earth, its fiowers
Lie stepped in magic OF the moonlit showers.
And I? Far out beyond the waves, where sky
meets sea.
From star to star across the nights tranquil
lily,
come to thee.
The evening winds. distilled from fragrant
flowers,
Pour out their incense on the dew wrapt hours
And on the still, sweet harmony of sky and ses
stray little space into infnity
To dwell with thee.
Thus when the fingers of the twilight gray
Pour balm npon the ebbing tides of day.
I, languor lulled by dream winged spirits ir
their flight
Between the half uncertain hours OF dark and

! NapoIeon,s Hats.

Careful inquiry has led to the discov-
cry that there are no fewer than nine of
Napoleon rs hats still in existence. A
writer in The Vie Contemporaries gives
list of them. One is in the possession
of Mime. Claitte, whose grandfather
General Giraud, picked it up at Ma
rengo. At a critical moment Bonaparte
started off at gallop, and the wind
blowing off his hat he did not stop to
pick it up.
Another of the hats is in little crypt
beside Napoleon's tomb at the Invalides.
This was worn on the 7th, 8th and 9th of
February, 1907, at Eilau, and it is the
identical one represented in the colossal
picture of the battle by Gros, to. be seen
in the Louvre. During the peace which
succeeded the battle Gros was commits
stoned to paint the picture, and in order
that the figure of the emperor might be
faithfully depicted the hat was given to
the painter.
At the death of Gros in 1885 it was
found under a glass case upon wooden
stand, and it was sold by auction among
the painters effects for 2,047 francs so
centimes to DIR. Delacroix, who present
ed it to Louis Philippe. The later, after
the famous second funeral of Napoleon,
ordered it to be placed beside the re-
mains with the emperor's crosses and the
sword he wore at Austerlitz. OF the re-
naming hats one belongs to Prince Vic
tor Napoleon and another to the museum
at Gotha.-London News.

Kilxore,s Objections.

A single phrase has made Colonel Kill
gore a national character. Very early
in his congressional career he began to
say, 81 object" He has kept this up at
every session of congress with serene
consistency. A small man, a nervous
man or bad tempered man could never
have made success of such policy.
He would have been run over in some
way. But Colonel Kilgore's 81 object,
uttered with dignity and with delibera-
ton and backed by such an impressive
personality, has won its way. 1t has
stopped hundreds of little bills; it has
sent many disappointed member to the
cloakroom Tuning and swearing. And
yet the big man, who is always good
humored and who smiles on slight prov
ocation, is popular member of con
gress. There is everything in the way
that 81 object" is said. The tone can
carry malice or anger or honest opposi-
ton. Colonel Kilgore says Il object
with such utter disregard of personal
considerations and with such unfailing
regularity that he has disarmed the re-
sentiment which usually falls upon OBJ
jectors.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat

A young man the other day got an UNI
brella where the bottle got the cork-in
the neck. This young man is one Of
those fellows who can readily explain to
you that nothing that any one else can
do is really as difficult as it appears. He
joined local gymnasium not long ago,
and after watching the members once or
twice going through their exercises came
away with the feeling that he was a full
fiedged athlete. Walking on East Court
street alongside of the jail. he espied two
women ahead of him walking abreast
and carrying basket of freshly washed
clothes between them. The street being
narrow at this point. they took up the
full width. The young man, being in q
hurry. thought he could save time by
jumping over the basket, but his calcu-
lation was not acute enough, and he
kicked some of the wash off. After
walking a few steps he turned around to
ascertain the result of his maneuver and
was Just in time to see an umbrella
hurled at him by the unerring aim OF an
enraged woman. He tried to dodge, but
was too slow.-Cincinnat Commercial

The Ocean Telephone Possible.

Professor Silvanus P. Thompson is one
of those who believe that ocean teleph-
ony is not only possible, but that the
means of attaining it are within our
grasp. Telephone cables for the deep
sea will, however, require to be made on
different plan from the existing tele-
graph cables-that is to say, a single con-
ductor of stranded copper insulated and
surrounded by an iron sheathing that
comes between the outgoing wire and
the water which serves as the return
part of the circuit The going and re-
turn wires will have to lie side by side
within the sheathing. Moreover, the
whole circuit will probably have to be
broken up into sections which are capa-
of acting upon each other by mutual in
duction.-London Globe.

Malta Drinking Water.

"The best water ever drank" writes
a correspondent, twas at Malta, where
it is collected on the fiat roofs, which
are most carefully cleaned preparatory
to the heavy fall Of rain which takes
place when the weather breaks the first
or second week in September. Every
house has below it an immense tank,
often of the same area as the house, and
about 10 feet deep, and into this pours
the beautiful fresh water, which comes
up cool and sparkling when wanted"

Atomic PRINCIPLES.

A side light is being thrown on the ma
ture of the elements by the chemico-
physical discussion between Armstrong
and Hartly as to the connection existing
in the constitution Of certain organic
compounds and the colors they exhibit.
We may take it as an established fact
that relation exists. And if SO, then
why may not elements of distinct and
characteristic color be considered as
completes analogous to definitely decom-
possible substances? The two elements,
nickel and cobalt, of decided color in
their salts and in their metallic plates,
add strength to this idea in that they
may be considered as exhibiting sort
of isomerism. Their atomic weights are
the same within limits of experimental
error, and by analogy with compounds
identity of atomic weight implies dis
similarity in constitution and therefore
definite structure.-Science.

Growth of the Human Heart.

DR.. Benecke of Marburg has made
known his observations on the growth
of the human heart, the fact appearing
that the increase is greatest and most
rapid during the first and second years
of life, its bulk at the end Of the second
year being exactly double what it origin
ally was. Between the second and
seventh years it is again doubled in size.
A slower rate of growth then sets in and
continues during the period of maturity
of other portions of the body. After the
fifteenth year up to the fiftieth the an
nual growth of the heart is about .061 of
a cubic inch, the increase ceasing about
the fftieth year.-Leisure Moments.

A few days after the magistrate, de

train when, seeing an empty cab handy,
he hailed the driver and directed him to
proceed to the station, telling him that
he was pressed for time. The driver,
however, needless Of the hint, kept to a
gentle trot. 81 say, say, my man,
