The fact was recently disclosed that

pensions in the state of Texas nearly
81, 100000 annually. and more than
half million in the state of MISSISSIPPI
ri. While these states did not furnish
a large quota to the federal army, they
have received substantial additions
to their population by the emigration
of Northern men. No doubt, also,
many federal soldiers in service In
these states during the war retained
their residences in the South at the
close Of the contest. No one will com-
plain If, in the distribution of pensiohs,
the Southern states derive a part OK
the advantages involved. The war with
Spain will, no doubt, add to the pen

WInterIng Hees.

Henry Allen. writing in Gleanings,
says:
have never been in favor of winter
Ing bees on the "hot-bed" plan; that is.
I have not believed in keeping bees
through the winter in a place where
the temperature is continuously main
tanned at high point. say from 40 to
90 degrees. That is too much on the
"hot-bed" plan for me- l believe In
placing bees in winter quarters in the
fall as late as possible, or certainly
not until winter is about to set in.
Here lin Massachusetts, that time Is
about the middle of December. On
the other hand, | want to take them
out on the approach of spring, and that
with us is about the goth of March.
My objection TO wintering bees in a
high temperature is that they cannot
safely be put on the summer stands in
the spring until the temperature aver
ages as high outside as that in which
the bees were wintered in, or kept in
from four to five months. The change
from q warm to a cold place works
just the same on bees as it does on
tender vegetables grown under glass.
Remove the glass, and down go the
plants. Place the bees on the summer
stand too early, and down go the bees
spring dwindling. have tested both
the vegetable and the bee experiment,
and know what l am talking about.
Now l am ready to write what |
started to write when l commenced. In
the fall OF 1896 arranged as an expert
ment, only, a small place to winter
bees in. The room is about ten feet
long, six wide and five high. There
Is room for about 80 hives Of bees il
the winter-cases are removed. The wall
on the west side is about six inches
thick. The other sides are double, the
inner wall being only heavy building
paper, while the outside is boarded and
shingled. There Is a double roof to
the building, and a ventilator opening
70 the south between the two roofs;
not much ventilation at the bottom.
Floor is the plain earth. The last two
years the bees were put in about the
middle of December; every colony came
out both years in fine condition,
though the first year there was no
ventilation at the top of the building,
and a few combs moulded a little.
This year the bees were removed on
the 9th day OF March, and the six days
following were warm and summer-like.
/ judged that there were about two
quarts of dead bees in ALL and every
comb was as bright and clean as in the
fall Some Of the colonies commenced
to carry in pollen inside of "a hours
"a fact attesting the perfect way the
bees had wintered.
Now comes the point and the theory
I wish to emphasize. There was no
such thing as an even temperature In
the beehouse during the two winters.
7 did not want such thing to be So
wanted the temperature to vary in
side as it did outside, only not to such
extremes. When 1t was at zero out
side l found it at 20 degrees inside,
and that was just as desired it. Nor
did the temperature go above 45 de-
grees through the winter. There will
he no spring-dwindling here, and
can show as fine lot of bees as can
be found anywhere in Massachusetts,.

whatever of my wife, or heard from
her since she took my name, or heard
from her within the last three months.

the edge of the cliff staring out to sea,
wondering whittier to turn, what to do
next, when old Molly touched my ell
bow, and, turning to her, hope and re-
lief lightened me in flash.
Molly, you bring me news. She Is
with you" l began eagerly, and then
stopped short as she mournfully shook
her head.
NO" she said, taking the pipe from
her mouth, 81 bring ye no news. l

happened. And the 'ould wan wouldn't

Heaven knows! Well, we'll, I'm not

laugh. "Ye might have spared her for

For over 90 years 1 was bothered
with kidney trouble, and despite treat
ment by physicians and using almost
every remedy that came to my notice
i received no permanent relief until l

cept those who have been through the
mill of kidney complaint can tell the
torture that one endures. The constant
pain across my back extending up the
right side, totally unable to lie on my
right side; the stiffness and numbness
of my limbs; the excruciating pain,
is something much more easy to think
about than to express. Many time
my husband has had to rub my back to
get up the circulation, before 1 was
able TO get on my feet My family pre-
vailed on me to try Doan's Kidney
Pills, but as l mad used dozens of other
remedies l had very little hope of find
ing relief They persisted in their adj

boxes. 1 felt like different person.

in years. The pain in my back left,
1 slept well at night, could do my
housework as well as / ever could, and
give the entire credit to Doan's Kid
ney Pills. L make this statement so
that other women who suffer as L
suffered may be in position to know
what to use if they wish TO get rid
of that too prevalent disease, kidney
complaint"
