The Appellate Court has denied the de-

case of Sarah Il. wbitford vs. Isaac ii.

finds the case to have been fairly and

there seems no good reason apparent to

A Colony of Bees,

An ordinary colony OF bees contain
about 2J,0OO worker bees, a few hun.
dred droncS and Il queen. The queen
is the mother oi (hc entire colony.
She lays the eggs that produce all.
| Without Il queen they wopld become
extinct. There is but one queen in
the hive, and her average life is but
little over two years. The average
life OF the worker is said to be about
forty-iive days. The drone bees are
slaughtered by the worker bees at the
close of the swarming or honey season.
There are three kinds OF bees rs above
produced in the hive from two kinds
OF eggs, viz, the fertile, and the in
fertile eggs. The eggs that produce
the queens and the worker bees are
one and the same, being the fertile
eggs. Iniertilc eggs produce droncs,
and are layed at will by the queen.
Eggs converted into queens hatch in
sixteen days, worker bees in twenty
one days, and drones in twenty-four
days.
In prosperous colony there are
three classes of worker bees which do
different duty to some extent. The
Oldest bees guard the hive and gather
all the honey the middle aged bees,
say from ten TO twenty days old,
produce the wax and build the comb
the younger bees prepare the food and
feed the young brood in the combs.
\ queen when laying at her full ca
parity can deposit 5000 eggs i'll
twenty-four hours. There is perhaps,
about one month in the whole year
that she thus lays at her full capacity,
and that is during the honey season,
except some honey is being gathered
by the bees when she continues TO Law
in 4 limited way.
Inc olu queen always comes OIL
with the first swarm and leaves several
queen cells in the parent hive. These
cells hatch out aud lead out other
swarms, each swarm settling down to
business again with but one queen.
Young queens become fertile when
about ten days old. They leave the
hive for this purpose and meet the
male bee (the d one) in the air on the
wing. they leave the hive on fine
days only, and as a rule, from II y.
to 3 p. NJ. during the day. When
once fertile and LAYING, they do not
leave the hive again until tncy come
with swarm. The fertility of the
queen is during her lie.

PLANT LIFE.

Experiments with plant seeds sub
jected to severe cold prove that they
are not injured by low temperature,
says the Chicago News. Seeds Of
barley, oats, squash, cucumber, peas
and sunhower were kept for ITO hours
at a cold of 1S3 to 100 degrees cent?
grade by means of liquid air and then
carefully thawcd for so hours. When
they were planted they sprouted just
as though they had not been frozen.
Schwein:urth is said to have dis
covered in central Africa tree called
tsofar" by the natives, from which
exudes gum already introduced in
commerce. This tree possesses the
remarkable quality OF giving off flute
like sounds when the wind blows
through its branches. These are
caused by an insect penetrating into
the wood, in order to obtain the gum
nous substance, thus Transforming
the tree into huge flute.
If stalks of white carnations are al
lowed to stand for a few hours in a
solution of acid wool green b, a strong
dye, the color is readily taken into the
circulation following the veining of
the petals and producing a beautiful
effect. Amy depth OF color from the
faintest tint to brilliant green may
be obtained by varying the strength
OF the solution. A comparatively
strong solution usually has the effect
of giving rich 3,een border to the
petals, with q more delicate tracing

Making Cranapple Jelly.

The crabapple is one of the most i'm
portant of the fruits that arc put up
by the house-keeper in the Fall. 1t
makes delicious preserves, and is a most
valuable jelly. The tartness and fine,
rich flavor OF crabapple jelly render it
second only to currant. For pre-
serving the fruit the large, red-checked
Siberian crabapple should be used,
and may be obtained in market at
about 40 cents peck. For jelly, a
cheap variety, the little wild crabap-
pie, may be used with the best results
and may often be purchased at 90
cents peck, thus making it one OF
the cheapest of jellies. To make a
crabapple preserve, use the whole fruit: !:
after carefully looking it over, put
into a preserving kettle with enough
water to prevent burning. Let The
water come gradually to The boiling
point, and simmer until the skins
crack. Remove the apples, skin them,
and with a thin-bladcd French knife
take out the cores from the blossom
ends, leaving the stems on. Weigh
the fruit and allow a pound and a
quarter of sugar and scant cup of
water to every pound. Let the water
and sugar first boil together until
cleat, then add the fruit and let it
simmer until the crabapples are trans
parent and tender. Remove the APP
piles with a skinner and spread them
out on platters in the sun to cool and
harden. Add syrup of lemon juice
in the proportion of the juice OF one
lemon to three pounds OF the frult,
and let it boil until it is clear. When
the fruit is cold and hardened, fill
quart jars about tnree-quarters full
and strain the syrup over them, filling
the jars on the top. Screw on the
covers aud when cold tighten down.
TO make crabapple jelly look the fruit
over carefully, cut out the stems and
the blossom ends, and cut every ap-
pies in halves. Put the fruit in q
large double boiler or in a stone jar

The Proper CD rria ge.

The modern woman is no longer
satisfied with the knowledge of music,
embroidery and the accomplishments
OF her mothers days, but learns many
thing OF different type and learns
them we'll. Anatomy and physiology,
biology, food and feeding, physical
culture, etc, make interesting topics
and develop the well.informed woman.
The respect the knowledge OF these
things is responsible for revolutioniz-
ing the carriage of the up-to.date wo-
man. The new manner OF walking
may invite cynical comment, but it
tends toward health and strength, and
while first introduced bv the society
maiden may we'll be adopted generally
The searcher after truth has found
that the new walk should long since
have been an old walk, as it is founded
on the true relation of the joints of
the body. In the study of anatomy
TO develop graceful carriage the pose
of the chest is all-important. This is
carried forward, so that it forms line
with the toes when standing. BY this
pose the abdomen does not appear too
prominent, the head cannot be badly
carried and the shoulders will be
straight. 10 effect this, the body from
the waist up is advanced slightly for
ward. A most graceful carriage is the
result TO sit correctly is as neces
sary to elegance as TO walk well, and
one who has proper regard for he
appearance invariably sits little for
ward of the perpendicular. She does
not slide forward in her chair, resting
the shoulders against the back, for in
this position it is impossible to hold
the head we'll. The correct carriage
OF the body means everything in ones
personal appearance.

DOES GOLD REALLY GROW,
An Old Question Which Has Come
to the Front Again.

The old question Does gold growg'
is again worrying the writers. The
only answer to the question, notwith-
ing some so-called scientists see fit to
discuss it, depends entirely upon the
sense in which the word "grow" is
used. The world is properly applied
only to things possessing organic life,
either animal or vegetable, SAYS a
writer in Mining Industry ana EcU1eW.
1t is improperly used in designating
increase of size, as when we say n
stream is growing. We mean by this
that they are increasing in size, but
not that the increase is due to life, as
is a tree or calf, when they grow. Gold
nuggets undoubtedly increase in size,
and gold is being constantly deposited
in rocks and veins and placers, but the
increase in size and deposition are due
to mechanical and chemical action
and not to life growth. Many waters
which percolate through the earth's
crust contain gold in solution, and
this gold, when it meets proper pre-
cipitant is deposited. That prccipi-
tant may he an earth current of
electricity, some vegetable growth or
chemical in the rocks.
Professor Ncwbury claim that the
nuggets found in places are accumula-
tlons from the waters that percolate
through the gravels, and are not from
decomposed quartz as generally sup
posed. He cites the fact that in the
center OF nuggets can be often found a
small grain of iron sand. This wss
the nucleus around which the earth
current of electricity deposited gold
from the waters, just as it is deposited
in electro plating. During long ages
this influence was the size OF the
nugget, until they become much larger
and purer than any ever found in
veins or ore
Gold has frequently been deposited
in mine timbers which have long been
immersed in mine water. In a Cali
fornia museum there is beautiful
specimen OF piece OF joined cap and
post taken from the Comstook. where
it had been under water for years, in
which gold has been deposited in the
joints and pores OF the wood. 1t is
a well known fact to chemists that
organic matter, especially vegetable
matter, is a good precipitant of gold.
Often in chlorination works charcoal
IS used as the precipitant of the gold
from the chlorine solution. 1t forms
an important item in the constitution
OF sea weeds, which have taken the
gold from ocean waters, and in France,
where these weeds are used for the
J manufacture OF iodine, the gold is
always recovered from the ashes Of the
weeds, and forms portion of the pro-
fits Of the business.
But all this deposition OF gold is not
life growth. 1t is only n dead, in
animate accumulation, no more to be
called growth than the accumulation
of sand in heap by wind or waves is
to be called a growth OF sand.

sit IN large pot Of water, and let the
water come gradually to the boiling
point around the jar Be sure that
the water reaches up to the fruit.
The water must boil around the jar
for eight or nine hours, and must be
replcnishcd as it boils away. At the
end OF this time the juice will be
drawn out of the fruit and the jar may
be removed from the water and left to
cool over night. Then strain them
through n strong muslin cloth, squecz-
ing out all the juice possible. Measure
the juice and allow pound OF sugar
to every pint. Boil the juice for 90
minutes before adding the sugar. Then
put in the sugar and let it come 10 a
boil for few minutes longer, until it
is firm jelly. Then strain it into
jelly-bowls, and when cold cover it
with papers and seal it up. Many
delicious desserts are made with crab
apple jelly, and it is excellent to use
for cake.
Marrow Rings on Toast-Have your
butcher saw five inch-wide rings from
a marrow bone. Cut five slices OF
bread in circles, butter each side, lay
in roasting pan and put a marrow
ring on the middle OF each slice;
sprinkle each lightly with a quarter of
a saltspoonful of salt and suspicion
OF cayenne. Stand in moderate oven
until light brown. Remove to hot
platter, slip paper fringe about each
bone, and serve. In small markets
marrow bones are to be procured very
cheap.
Soup s. la Co6ourg-Make a pancake
by stirring into two beaten eggs as
much flour as they will absorb aud
yet run from the spoon. Fry in one
large pancake. When done cut into
finest thread. with n silver knife and

tablespoonful Of minced parsley. -

Relic OF he willard Zoo m

A Sood many Po:tlanders are un.
aware OF the existence OF dlydock in
this city, but there is one, all the
same, and lis cost is said 10 be in the
nejghborhood of $25O,OO0. 1t was
built on the Albina side of the river
Ia years ago, under the Willard regime
but no vessel was ever docked in it.
The drydock is about 500 feet long by
100 feet wide, and it is deep enough
for the largest vessel that ever entered
Portland harbor. But it is in a sad
state OF decay now. The piling which
supported The walls has become rotten

is a total wreck. The channel leading
into the huge plank-lined basin is
chokcd with sand. In fact the quick
sand was the cause OF its abandon
ment, rs it would have been impossi-
BILE to pump the dock dry after ves-
sci had been placed in it.

The Sneezing Season.

A cold, as nearly every intelligent
person knows, is the result of stop
page somewhere of free circulation OF
blood, TO which one is first sensitive
through feeling of chill.
So slight is the chill of:entimes that
not until the preliminary sneeze comes
is the victim aware he or she has been
in the track OF draught, or that the
temperature has changed.
The usual notion is that by going
indoors, changing 70 heavier clothing
or retreating from the moist atmo-
sphere the danger is averted. These
precautions are all we'll enough, but
the first and most efficacious measure
should be to restore the quick flow OF
warm blood through every vein, and
so by heat instantly counteract the
little chill.
One, perhaps the simplest method
of doing this, has been learned by men
who stand on sentinel duty, who are
obliged to suffer more or less exposure
in winter, or who scOrn the comforts
OF cold weather, Of overcoat and UNI
brella.
Their method when the temperature
of the body or eztremities is lowered,
or a sudden chill or quick change
from warm TO cold atmosphere is en-
dured, is to inhale three or four deep
bleaths, expand the lungs to their
fullest extent, holding every time the
inhaled air as long as possible and
then slowly letting it forth through
the nostrils.
In doing this the imitation of the
lungs sets the heart into such quick
motion that the blood is driven with
unusual force along its channels and
so runs out into the tiniest veins.
This radiates a glow down to the
toes and finger tips and sets up a
quick reaction against the chill. The
whole secret is to stir the blood and
set it in motion as from rapid eSer-
else.
Let any woman who goes to dinner
or ball in a low necked dress, where
the rooms are chilly and her wraps
not accessible, try this little cure, or,
better still, this preventive against
cold and enjoy its merits.
Let her try it when taking cold

FOOD THAT MAN NEEDS.
4 Wise COmbinatiOn Necessary e
Keep the Body IN Order.

s'~ AoNN IN VI AShs
"As in the daily wear and tear OF
lie great deal Of the substance of a
mans body is used up, it is absolutely
necessary that the repair to the body
be carefully and Systematically looked
after" writes Mrs. S. I. Rorer in the
Ladies' Home Journal. "Then, too,
man must create heat and force, ac.
cording to the climate in which he
lives and the occupation he follows.
A wise combination of food is, there
fore, necessary to keep the body in
working order. In cold weather we
need larger amount OF carbonaceous
foods-fats, sugars and starches-than
We do in summer. In the hot clim-
ates and during the hot months fruit
and green vegetables, containing the
salts necessary to keep the blood in
good condition, should he be used
freely.
According to our method of liv-
ing in this country, we should take
about two parts Of repair food-such
as meat, eggs, milk, cheese, or, in the
vegetable Kingdom, the old peas,
beans and lentils-to three parts OF
carbonaceous food - such as white
bread, potatoes, rice, butter, cream
and fats of all kinds. Then we must
have a certain amount OF bulky or
watery vegetables, such as lettuce,
spinach, cabbage, onions and also the
fruits. In making out a daily ration
we should have at the beginning OF
the meal some light dish that may be
taken slowly, to prepare the stomach
for the food that is to follow, then .
meat or its equivalent. With beef
we should serve potatoes with mutton,
rice. With chickens, either rice or
potatoes"

RECITED LORDS PRAYER.
One Who Heard Booth Give 1t
Recalls Thrilling Experience.

Il think the most thrilling expert
once | ever passed through WAS in New
York city one time," said James
O'Neill to a Lewiston Journal writer,
"when quite by accident number OF
foreign diplomats from Washington, a
few American statesmen, some promI-
ncnt New Workers and one or two Oi
US professionals were gathered together
in 4 smoking room of the Fifth Ave
nue. hotel, when somebody asked

tragedian when he fixed his eyes upon
the man who made the request.
think that it was Lord Sackville West,
ut that time British Minister to the
United States, and l shall never forget
the peculiarly searching expression
that Booth shot out of his dark eyes.
They seemed 10 penetrate the very
soul OF the man at whom they were
directed, and then, as if satisfied, re-
sumed their wontcd vacuous density.

iety, at least was, for seldom would

he arose, walked to little cleared
space at one end OF the room and be-
gan recital that even after all these
years makes me thrill through and
through. He said: 'Our Father,
and never before had those two words
been clothed with the majesty and rev
erence with which his look and tone
enveloped them. And then he carried

you understand? Those few score
words as delivered by Edwin Booth
were the most powerful argument for
Christianity 1 ever heard, and could
every being on the face of the globe
have heard them there would no longer
be atheism. Booth strobe out OF the
room when he had finished and a sim
ultaneous sigh OF relief arose while
without a word we stole away singly
and on tip-toe, and l do not believe
that any Of us think Of that thrilling
evening without shudder. He was a
great man, great man."
