Bride and Groom Unable to Say Why

Bride and Groom Unable to Say Why
They Attracted Attention.
One stormy day recently hasd-
some carriage came dsshing down
fifth avenue, New York, with yard
of white ribbon flying at the pole,
says a correspondent OF the Pitts
burg Dispatch. Every body paused
long enough to take second look at
it. and everybody who did saw more
white ribbon tied in the door han
dies. As it went by the cabmen
congrcgated in front of tho Fifth
Avenue hotel turned and stared. and
tho gentleman loungers within rub
bed their noses against tho plate
glass at the curious sight Behind
the carriage and pendant from the
axle swung dainty white kid slip
per by a white ribbon. And the wind
blow and therain swept by in
vicious gusts. aud the dying mud
and water splashed the white ribbon
and Eecked the delicate little slip
per; but the bright young couple,
snugly wrapped to the chin on the
back seat, were blissiully uncon-
scious OF all 1t is possible they
may have wondered how every body
seem I to know that they were just
married and were on their waV to
the railway station for the happy
wedding tour. Perhaps they marVsll-
ed that one carriage on Fifth ave-
nuo among so many should attract
SO much attention, and why every
body smiled and beckoned to his tel
low and smiled again. Were mar
ried," was thus Haunted in tho face
of all New York The street urchins
shouted q wild approval as tho car
riage passed and some OF them
yelled: "Git on TO the bride"
"Baby mine" "Oh. my eyssH'
"Good-by, darling" and so on,
after the fashion OF the gamin world.
while the big black coachman o.
tho box grinned from behind his
rich livery and was tho enVied
OF his kind. If that young
couple entertained any doubts rs 10
tho reason for all these unexpected
demonstrations they were probably
duiy enlightened when they reached
the station Their friends who sent
them thus gayly heralded on theiI
wedding journey possibly enjoyed
the joke better than the newly made
bride and groom.

his fine eyes, the strength and parity
of his passion, melted her.
With that radiant, yielding, un-
transferable expression upon her face
which when lover beholds, fills him
with untold rapture, she said:
~ have never loved any one but
you, Fred. My whole heart is yours. 4"
After such confession we will not
longer intrude. Eden opened, and let
them in.
The next autumn they were quietly
married, and are as happy as mortals
ever are in this changing world OF
ours.
Frank Eston and Miss Gardener are
also husband and wife. She was q
noble-hearted, confiding girl, and she
has never asked a. word about the ru-
NOR that reached her OF her levers in
fatua ton for Annie Lawton.
Where she loved, she trusted.
"Finish that story of your escape
upon Mont Blanc" Norton said to
Eston, one day.
Eston laughed. He was always

The members OF the Paris muniei'
pal council have little difficulty in
meeting any deficit in their budget.
They are threatened with enc now,
and consequently have resolved to
put fresh tax on funerals. Strictly
speaking, OF course, this will take
the form Of enhanced fees to be paid
by the public, as there are ne pri-
vate undsrtakers in the French eapi-
tai. According 10 ths tariff which
has been in vogue during the pres
emit regime, the price Of n freehold
grave, two square yards in size, is
so. but there is q progressive scale,
so that third yard costs $500 extra
and the fourth the same amount
again. while the fifth and sixth arc
charged $500 each. and every yard
above a sixth costs no less than t40 !.
The municipality propose to increase
the price OF the first two yards to
SiG0. and to remodel the scale OF
charges in ether ways, SO that ii is
estimated there will be an increased
revenue OF Sl27,600 per annum. =

rccl1lessnes in his nature and in his
bearing that gave his father great I'M
eaSiness.
He gave nod and smile to all the
mill hands he recognized. The smile
may have been a trife supercilious,
but most of the girls were pleased by
his notice.
He paused By Annie Lawton, and
extended his hand.
She smiled and flushed, but said
"Don't you see I am attending TO
four looms. My hands are too full to
pause an instant"
''Still the same proud girl" he said,
admiringly.
AS he gazed into her beautiful eyes,
and noted the grace of her every
movement, he thought:
"She is queen among women.
I've not seen her equal since / have
been away"
He fingered a long Tins by her
looms, unmindful of the curious eyes
bent upon him. She replied to all his
questions, but volunteered no re-
marks.
"Does she really love Fred Norton,
or is it my fathers frown she dreds?
Or, has she heard that am engaged
TO Miss Gardner? Jovel She's lovely
enough to tempt better man than
TO break his troth."
He pulled his mustache fiercely, as
he thus thought, and strobe away.
Fred Norton, at the farther end of
the long room, gnawed his lip impa-
tiently. If one could Judge by his
face, there was no love in his heart for
this dashing son Of his kind employer.

The whirr of the huge machinery
gradually ceased. Crowds of women,
youths and girls emerge from the
doors.
81 say, Fred, did you know Frank
Eston got home last night? True's
preachin'."
Fred Norton glanced sharply into
the speakers face. He was foreman,
or floor manager, in the Eston mill.
He WAS tall, rather handsome, and
with frank, manly bearing that at
once inspired confidence.
George Carter continued:
ST heard the news this morning, and
told Annie Lawton first thing. She
blushcd like a posy."
Young Norton's face betrayed en-
noyancc, but he said not word.
"They say Mr.. Frank is handsomer
than when he went away, and that
his year in Europe has set him up
more than ever. Perhaps he's high
toned enough, now TO suit his father,
and Miss Gardner will be able to hold
him. Pears like an Eston ought to
be. above marrying a mill-girl, any
way even as pretty a one as Annie
Lawton."
George shot swift glance at his
companion as he uttered these words.
A quicS flush overspreal Norton S
face. He spoke sharply:
"Anuie Lawton is any mans equal
The President of the United States
might feel proud to call her his wife I"
"Well she is lady, every inch"
admitted Carter. 'She-but-therc
she comes"
A surprisingly beautiful CIR ], in the
simple garb OF mill-hand, hurried
by. She bowed pleasantly to the
young man, but with an air of proud
reserve not often seen in one of her
years.
"Whew! she is a beauty and no mis-
take" said Carter "Anl as proud as
Lucifer. How those brown eyes do
snap when the boys try to be the least
bit too friendly. No wonder Mr.. Frank
lost his heart to her"
At these words young Norton
abruptly turned down side street.
Evidently the conversation was not 10
his taste.
II have business down here" he
said, briefly, and strobe on.
George Carter smiled.

girl in her senses would look at him,

Wonder how Miss Gardener feels, and
il she loves Annie Lawtou much?
Wonder which of 'em Mr.. Frank will

His coarse nature found pleasure in
canvassing the subject, and he went
on his way still pondering over it.

MORE FAKE YARNS.
Sensational Stories Sent Out Without

Washington, September alt is now three
days since friends of the surveyors in the
fields in connection with the geographical
survey, had their anxiety aroused by q
despatch dated San Francisco. California,
and sent out by the Chicago organization
styling itself as the Associated Press, giving
publicity to the rumor that the government
surveying party We're massac1ed near III
Paso on the Rio Grande. Naturally this re-
port caused uneasiness, and many kilograms
were received and asked for particulars.
One was received today by the coast and
geographical bureau from the topographeI
at Utah, asking for particulars. There were
no particulars to give. Acting Superintend-
emit Pugh Of the coast and geodetic survey
expresses no doubt whatever that the story
is a pure invention, saying the government
had no surveying party within miles of the
point where the massacre is said to have
taken place.

SMOKERS FOR THE APlARY. !
Good Smoker Described-When to Use
and What to Burn In It.


and What to Burn In 1t.
A good smoker is one of the essen
tials in a beeyard, while poor one is
nuisance. A good smoker has strong
draft-strong enough to blow the smoke
clear across the hive and down between
the frames to the bottom of the hive if
needed. 1t is often necessary to blow
the smoke down between the frames
especially when you want to drive the
bees out of an upper story, A good
smoker has lively spring, one that
contracts and enlarges quickly. A coiled
spring is good. The leather ON smoker
should not be too heavy, but soft and
spongy. Do not purchase too small q
smoker.
A writer in The Farmers Advocate
thinks it pays to use the smoker every
time one opsns hive although he is
careful not to overdose the bees with
smoke. He says: IT go to hive that
I want to look into and take off the COW
sr, then start to raise the quilt at one
corner. AS I continue to take it off
gently puff in little smoke just to let
them know I am around AS rule,
scarcely a bee will take wing. They sit
quietly on their combs until I am
through looking at them. If happen
to let comb slip or jar against the
hive, will be apt to need the smoker
again. In the above I am supposing
that they are Italians, the only kind
keep. If the bees are blacks, they will
be more irritable. y
As regards the fuel to be used in
the smoker, the correspondent quoted
employs dry planer shavings, not those
from large planer used in dressing
lumber-those are too coarse-but those
from buzz planer or molding machine
are just right. Put few in the bottom
of the smoker, then light match and
throw it on them, and after the SHAY
ings get agoing commence working the
bellows and get the shavings to become
thoroughly heated through. Now I'LL up
the smoker with more shavings and
pack them as you I'LL; keap putting the
bellows while you are filling, and when
you have it filled place few bench
shavings, those made with an ordinary
hand plane, ON top to keep the small
shavings from being blown through the
nozzle. You are now ready to go to work.
There are other things that make good
smoker fuel, such as rags, rotten wood,
carpet felt, cedar bark, etc.

Egg and Feather Eating.

At the experiment farms, Ottawa,
careful watch was taken of the laying
stock to discover the cause of and rem.
edy for egg and feather eating, the two
vices fowls in close confinement are
most addicted to. The subject is one
of widespread Importance. Manager
Gilbert in a recent report says: l. That
the vicious practices are most INDUCED
in during the months of February and
March. 2. That unless checked on first
showing they continue until the fowls
are allowed outside. 3. That nonlayers
do not indulge in the vices until the
others commence 4. That the inactiv-
ity Of the layers, caused by overlooking,
leads to the vices. 5. That the breeds of
the more nervous temperaments-vi
Black Minorcas, Andalusians, Red
Caps, etc. are most addicted to the
practices. 6. That the vices first show
among the fowls in the greatest number
in one pen. z. That egg eating began
where the laying nests were most ex-
posed to view of the fowls.
The conclusions to be arrived at from
uiiO IOlCSOillS5 dIG. L. LII Is lIupSrdblt0
that the layers be kept in constant &C.
tivity. 2. That they must have plenty
of room to scratch in. g. That the pull
let's are better separated, when possible,
from the older fowls. A. That plenty
of green stuff should be fed in the shape
of clover hay, cabbage, mangels, tur-
nips, etc. 5. That green bones, cut up
and fed regularly, are the best prevent
ives. g.. That the laying stock should
have access to barn, shed or stable to
scratch in whenever circumstances per-
NIT. 7. That the nest boxes must be 50
arranged that they will be dark and not
too easy to get to. s. The more limited
the quarters, the greater the necessity
of exercise. 9. The more natural the
conditions under which the layers are
kept during the close season the better
for them the more profitable the result.

The Travelling Dairy.

Canada has an institution that ought
to be copied in the United States. This
is the travelling dairy. The Dominion
government maintains travelling dairy
school which in the summer season
goes from one neighborhood to another,
holding institutes and giving practical
exhibitions Of the best way to deal with
milk and make butter and cheese. The
result is seen in the great leap forward
taken by Canadian butter and cheese in
the past few years. At the Worlds fair
Canada captured 80 prizes from our
American cheese and butter makers.
The travelling dairy ought to be taken
in hand jointly by the American state
experiment stations and the dairymen' s
institutes and associations. They could
run it together. Part of the government
appropriation to the stations might be
used for its expenses, and probably the
state legislatures would appropriate adj
ditional sums if properly approached.
