NOTES FOR BEEkEEPERS.

Adjusting boards should be used in
hives of all weak stocks.
Colonies having defective queens are
always the foundation of trouble.
Colonies selected for breeding should
contain n good supply of drone comb.
Little wooden troughs holding about
pint of sirup are good for feeding
bees.
The supply of drones depends entire
ly on the amount of drone comb fur
nished.
Colonies selected for breeders should
be pushed by early feeding to their ut
most limit.
Do not feed in the morning, as it
tends to cause robbing and to make the
bees restless.
1t is just as necessary to select for
the production of drones as for the pro-
duction of queens.
Pollen is always stored in or near the
brood nest, and here is the place where
the bees will cluster.
Bees are not apt to attach comb to
c.otL, so cloth divisions between
frames serve as guide.
Queen cells should never be retained
In any colony except one that is in a
natural, healthy condition.
BE sue that the entrances to the
hives are kept open. The bees want
good, fresh air TO breathe.
Gonfne each colony 10 only as many
combs as this bees can conveniently
cover, giving more combs as needed.
Empty combs are valua BILE and should
receive the best of care; if this is given,
they can be made to last several years.
If any of the colonies are short of
stores, give them candy; it can be laid
on top of the frames above the cluster
Now is good time to make up sur
| plus of hives, so as to have them ready
for use at any time they may be need

An Old War-Horse of journalism Dis
covers the Virtue of a New
Medicinal Variety.

There are only few of them left.
Since Chas. A. Dana's death, Joseph Me-
dill, the war-horse of the Chicago Tribune,
is the chief surviving representative OF the
old school of virile, aggressive editorial
giants.
To have mud thrown at them was part of
the profession at all times, but to find health
in mud is rather modern innovation. That
is what Joseph Medill has been doing of
late.
Mr.. Medill is an investigator and when
the stories of the miraculous Magno-Mud at
Indiana Mineral Springs began to spread
over the country, the great editor became
interested and eventually decided to try this
mysterious substance on his own rheumatic
limbs and weigh its value. He was accom-
panied by his private physician, young
Armenian scientist of high attainments
The great editor was mud .mummitied daily
for several weeks and gained visibly in
weight, strength and vitality.
The final result of the experiment was an
unqualified success. Mr. Medill went
editorial about Magno-Mud with his OWL
hand. Next, he sent his son-in-law for a
little of the mud-treatment. In November
he went down again, and since the new
bath house is completed he expects to be q
regular visitor four times year.
This mud treatment in which Mr.. Medil
found so much virtue, is peculiar, yet logical
After all, every form of life springs from the
earth, which is the great destroyer and assim
ilator of dead and effete matter. At the
Indiana Mineral Springs is beautiful little
natural amphitheatre, the slopes being
grown with magnificent oaks. At the foot Of
the, converging hills, big Lthia spring
gushes forth at the rate of 5000 barrels day
and floods the soil, which consists of rich
black porous loan, fed by the deciduoui
foliage of the oak trees. This peculiar sol
saturated with mineral salts for ages, is a:
soluble as sugar, and being devoid of clay il
not sticky in the least, 1t is not, therefore
in any sense related to the conventional muc
of the roadway, of the Chicago street or tc

Sure Cure for wrinkles.

When the skin is inclined to show
wrinkles lano,ine is considered one OF
the best possible treatments for dispell-
ing these evidences of the passage Of
time. 1t closely resembles the natura,
fat in which the wrinkled skin is de-
ficient, and it is. more readily absorbed
by the drying pores than other greasy
preparations. Rub in carefully, gently
and slowly, first bathing the face
thoroughly in hot water and cocoanut
oil soap. Dry by pressing soft old
damask towels to the skin, not rubbing
it in with the fingers. Let it stay until
morning, then wash the face in warm
water, using little cocoanut oil SOAP
to remove the greasy feeling. Then
squeeze half a lemon in large bowlful
of tepid water and rinse off the face
drying with a soft damask towel.

ton was not on properly.
He got out of patience one Sunday when
the missing button had made him late for
parade, and exclaimed:

give her a hint this time, anyhow"
He then took the lid of tin blacking box,
about three inches in diameter, drilled two
holes in it with fork and sewed it on to the
neck of the shirt that was next to be
washed; When his washing came back he
found that she had taken the hint; she had
made button hole to fit it.-Detroit Free

trouble would start and he would suffer the

He suffered for over thirty years, and the
last decade has suffered SO much that he
was unable to do any work. To this the fre.
