1t has been discovered that among
the mon of the Royal Irish constab-
ulary there is Il baronet. A writer
in the London World gives his name.
1t is Sir Thomas Echlin, the seventh
baronet of the name. Even he, how
ever low as his fortunes seem to
have fallen, is better off than his
uncle, Sir Frederick Echlin, the fifth
baronet, or his father, the sixth bar
onet. Tho former was a pauper, in
receipt of parochial relief at Eden
kerry, in Kildare, until he was
granted n pension from the Great.

Sir Humphry Dayy.

Sir Humphrey Davy married a
widow as peculiar as himself. His
pet AFT ectation was lack Of time.
He was always i'll hurry. He pre-
tended that he had no leisure to
dress himself, and when a change of
linen became necessary he simply
put one shirt over another, like q
Chinaman, until he was known to
have on five or six shirts at time.
OF course he could not wear this
amount Of apparel without appreci-
ably increasing his size, and his
friends not in the secret were some
times surprised to see him fall off in
apparent weight 90 pounds in day.
His wife's great anxiety was to keep
him fit for company" but as he did
not care fig for company she had
no easy task, and domestic discord
was a common thing.

ONE WEAKNESS OF spScJLAtoRs.
Board 81 Trade Men WIN a,Sss"saiis Con.

Board Of Trade Men WIN Hsss,"saiiy Con.
suit the CIsirvoyant'
Board OF trad" men nre pretty
hard headed Individuals who, as q
rule, concern Themselves too much
with visible supplies and other tan
gible things to think much about in
visible spirits. Most people would
therefore bo surprised If they knew
what large number of spectators
patronlHC Clairv0yantS, mediums, as
trologcrS and fortune tellcrs. Sever
al prominent men and successful
dealers never fail, it is said, to con-
suit medium before going on tho
board and their almost uniform
good luck in their trades Is sufficient
to justify the practice, to themselves
ut least.
One medium who has been peer
ing into the future here for 20 years
at so much per peer and the bulk Of
whose patronage, from the stand
point of til" financial returns, comes
from spectators on the board has
amassrd Il snug fortune for herself
and lives in style on fashionable
street ON tho West Side.
Tho story is told by one man-one
of hor regular visitors-who, on the
strength of alarming conditions in
Europe and the prospect of war,
wcntlnt u combination which made
heavy purchases of pork They had
captured most of that commodity in
sight On the morning of the ;la-- on
which the final squeeze was to be
given to the shorts ono of the lead
ing spirits of the enterprise called on
this medium. The medium 8 famil-
lar is supposed to be the immortal
part of an Indian chief who used to
roam all over Chicago before Chica-
go was here. On this occasion he
seemed to DC i'll Il good deal of trou-
BILE, or the medium did, which was
of course the Same thing, and after
Il number of Oracular utterances,
for the most part unintelligible, she
said, speaking with the voice of the
departed chief:
Ugh! Meat not good greasy. Let
it GO"
This was repeated several times,
and without calculating his remark
in any way tho spirit of the red man
departed. The medium, who, like dll
true mediums, was unable to re.
member out of trance anything
she had said in it, could throw no
light. Tho moro tho Speculator
thought about it the more he inclin-
cd to tho belief that the old chief had
reference to his pork deal. He was
not at all of the opinion that his
friend seemed to express, however,
and was disposed to go on with the
deal. On his way back to the office
he mot an intimate business associ-
ate, who told him that he had what
he considered reliable information
to the effect that several of the 9TH
or members of tho syndicate were
getting alarmed and had given in
structionS to their brokers to unload
at the first favorable opportunity.
The Spectator came TO the cOnclu-
sion that tho Indian knew his bust
ness and quietly disposed of his hold
ings. The other people unloaded as
per programme, but not until pork
had taken n heavy drop and not un-
til no had got rid of his and mnle a
handsome portit. Chicago Tribune.

two small holes in the bottom of the
box near what is to be the top, and
hang on nails so as to raise the box a
few inches from the ground, to pre-
vent the chickens from scratching dirt

HINTS FOR BEEKEEPERS.

SHOULD colony become queenless
from any cause, three weeks may be
gained by having an extra qoeen to
give it at once.
No TIME should be lost in giving a
queenly colony a comb of eggs or
young larvae, or both, from which to
raise queen.
THE best time to transfer bees from
one hive to another is about the season
of swarming, but if care is taken it may
be done on any warm afternoon when
the bees are actively at work.
WORKER bees, being undeveloped
females may now and then be sufficient
ly developed to lay eggs but as they
are incapable of meeting the drones
and becoming fully fortified their eggs
will produce only drones.
WEAK colonies may be united after
smoking them well by removing the
COMBS with the bees adhering, and
placing them together in one hive,
spraying them with peppermint water,
so as to give them all the same scent.
To CLIP the queens wings, open the
hive and lift the frame carefully and
avoid jars When the queen is seen,
with pair of sharp-pointed scissors,
lift one of the front wings and cut off
about one-half of it. This will prevent
her leaving the swarm.
WORKING with bees at unreasonable
times, leaving honey exposed among
the bees, induces robbing. 1t is only
the weak colonies that are robbed. One
of the easiest and best preventives is to
keep the colonies strong. Contracting
the entrance so that but single bee
can pass is a good cure.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
lends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation:
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

The eggs used in Matching out chicks
should be from hens that are active and
vigorous. Hardness is the prime fac
tor in the matter, and good start with
strong stock leaves half the battle
won. Under no circumstances should
eggs be used from inbred stock, or from
hens that are subject to ailments, as
constitutional defects are easily trans
mitted. To prove this, select for breed
ing purposes male that is healthy,
but that has some popularity, such as
a twisted comb. When the chicks are
old enough to exhibit their combs, the
chances are that every chick will have
a twisted comb. Such experiments
with the male have been made often
enough to fully demonstrate the inn
portance of selecting the eggs with
great care.-Farm and Fireside.

Poultry in the Stables.

The barn and stables are not the
proper places for the hens. 1t is be-
slowing unnecessary labor to hunt for
eggs. The poultry should have a spe-
cial place separate from the other
stock, but if it is deemed best to allow
the hens in the barn and stable, in or
der that they may pick up and utilize
waste material, they should at least
have clean hen-house in which to re-
tire at night. The fowls will soon
learn to know where they belong at
night, if confined in any location for a
few days. The object should be to
have them all roost and lay in one
place, as well as being fed together at
regular periods. Ii allowed to roost in
different places, it is impossible to dis
cover if any are missing or if disease is
prevalent until too late to use preven-
tives.-Prairie Farmer.
