FEEDING THE BEES.
~ This TasIs Is Not Performed Prop
erIy Weakening of Colonies
Is Sure to Result.

Feeders must be arranged so the
bees can get the strip properly. Or
binary receptacles will not answer, I'M
less partitions or floats of some kind are
used to keep the bees from drowning,
which they will do in open pans, etc.
Wooden feeders are the best, and
thick piece of board guttered out in
deep grooves one-half inch wide, with
partitions left, which may be very thin,
or heavy block of wood, with holes
bored not quite through and filed with
the same, answer very nicely. A good
frame of old, tough honeycomb may be
filed with the sirup from some dis
lance above it with something like
common sprinkler, except that the
holes are larger. This drives the sirup
to the bottom of the cells, and eXpels
the air, and when filled 1t may be
turned over without the sirup running
out, and the other side treated likewise.
All feeding should be done in the
night time with the above kind of feed;
that is, the feed may be given the bees
late in the evening, between shutdown
and dark. Ifgiven them during the day
1t will cause agreat uproar among them
and may result in robbing and fighting
generally. Upper stories should be
used to place the feeders, and should be
closed so that bees cannot pass in or
out of the same from above.-A. IL.

In course of time the traveller stepped

when produced, read:

The part of the letter that could moi

Their Golden Wedding
BY Harriet T-rancene Croker.
NoUNG Mrs. Wingate ran into her

NOUNG Mrs. Wingate ran into her
neighbours one morning for
friendly chat. In the course of the con-
versation her neighbor mentioned the
fact that dear old Aunt Rachel-who
was Aunt Rachel to the whole village
had told her the day before that next
Wednesday would be her fftieth we'd
ding anniversary.
EAnd how will you and Uncle David
spend it?' I asled-'you know golden
wedding does not happen every day "
what did the dear old soul say?" in
quircd Mrs. Wingate.
"Why, she said in that demurc, serene
way of hers: oh, David and will just
stay at home, as we always do, and take
comfort with each other. All the chill
dren are so far away that we can't hope
to have them with us. Yes, dearie, we'll
lust spend it in the ordinary way, with
perhaps q bit of chicken for our dinner
If we feel we can afford it. Thee must
come over and see us if thee can"
Dear old Quakeress that she isl"
cried Mrs. Wingate, so we will go over
and see them. NIilly, I've great
scheme in my head. 1t popped into it
this very minute"
For an hour longer the two young
women sat i'll the cool sitting-room and
discussed the idea. There was much to
say and many plans to make. At last
Mrs. Wingate rose. 81 positively must
go, Milly," she said, glancing at the
clock, but 1 feel Our morning has not
been wasted"
'To be sure it las not" said Milly, go
ing with her guest to the door. Wen

and make that dear old couples ami
versary-the happiest of their lives!"
1t was in September. All the country
roads were bright with the splendor and
glory of goldenrod. The soft, hazy air
of autumn fingered over the quiet valley
and made iaunt through the country
Il dreamy delight.
Mr.. Wingate sat on the front seat Of
his handsome surrey, holding the rib
bons over the sleek back of his faithful
family horse. On the back seat sat
David Ellis and Rachel, his wife, their
kind old faces alight with pleasure. Mr..
Wingate had called for them that aft
ernoon, and the dear old lady in flut-
ter of surprise had said: "Why, Friend
Wingatel thee must be going to let us
celebrate our anniversary! To be sure,
we'll go for drive this lovely after
noon. David, hasten and get thee
readyl"
In her soft gray bonnet and snowy
kerchief, crossed gracefully upon the
bosom of her gray gown, she looked so
sweet and happy sitting on the back
seat that Mr.. Wingate could scarcely
keep his eyes from her kind old face.
David, too, in his broad-brimmed hat,
sat in contented silence listening to his
wife's pleasant chatting and enjoying
the autumn landscape, which always
appealed to his beauty-loving soul.
How beautiful the goldenrod isl"
exclaimed Rachel. 81 do wish, Friend
Winaate. if thee would Just as soon. that

All ECCENTRIC INVENTOR.
Worked In Secret for Thirty-Five
Years on Perpetual Motion
Machine.

The sale OF the effects of the late
Jesse Horn, an eccentric farmer living
in the Flatwoods district, will doubt
less attract very large crowd of the
curious, says Rome (Ga.) correspond
ent of the st. Louis Republic. Among
the things listed for the sale is one per-
petual motion machine. For IS years
Horn worked every spare moment or
his machine, often working feverishly
far into the night. He guarded his Sc
cret and his machine zealously, keeping
it in a stout clubhouse, the key to which
was never out of his sight for an in
slant. Not even a member of the fam
lily was ever permitted to gaze on the
precious work of his brain, and he dice
with the secret locked in his heart. But
the machine is advertised to sell al
public outcry, and large number vii
be attracted to the sale.
Floyd has another eccentric old fel
low, who was for years imbued with the
idea that he could invent flying ma.
chine. His name is Poole, and his men.
tai equipoise is not Of the best. One day
Poole got the machine fixed to his Xix
ing, and, after bidding his wife ant
children a solemn farewell, crawled Out
on the roof of his cabin from the sum
init of which he announced that he was
going to fly to Heaven. He launched
himself outward, but, instead Of sail
ing off like bird, Poole and his ma
chine came to terra frma like lump OF
lead. AS a consequence Of his fool
hardness, Poole was laid up for three
months with broken leg and other
damages. 1t is only necessary to men

oLD-FAsHloNED POSSES

Oh those sweet old-fashioned posies that
were mothers pride and JOY,
In the sunny little garden where 1 wan
dered when boy!
Oh, the morning-glories twining 'mongst
the shining sunfowers tall,
And the clematis a-tangle in the angle OF
the wall!
How the mignonette's sweet blooming was
pertaining all the walks,
Where the hollyhocks stood proudly with
their blossom-dotted stalks
While the old-mads' pinks were nodding
groups of gossips, here and there.
And the bluebells swung so lightly in the
lazy, hazy air
Then the sleepy peoples STOPPING low
their dropping. drowsy heads,
And the modest young sweet-williams hid
ing In their shady beds!
By the edges Of the hedges, where the
spiders webs were spun,
How the marigolds lay, yellow as the mel
low summer sun
That made all the grass a-dapple meath
the leafy apple tree.
Whence you heard the locust drumming
and the humming of the bee,
While the soft breeze In the trellis where
the roses used to grow
Sent the silken petals flying like scented
shower Of snow!
Oh, the quaint old-fashioned garden. and
the pathways cool and sweet,
With the dewy branches splashing flashing
jewels DER my feet!
And the dear old-fashioned blossoms, and
the old home where they grew,
And the mother hands that plucked them,
and the mother love 1 knew!
All! of all earth's fragrant flowers in the
bowers on her breast,
Sure the blooms which memory brings US
are the brightest and the best;
And the fairest rarest blossoms ne'er
could win my love, know.
Like the sweet old-fashioned posies mother
tended long ago.

HER SOM S MODEL.
a Mothers Devotion Sends Her Art
list BOY to PnrIs for u Two
Years' Course.

A young student at one Of the large
art institutions decided last winter to
try for n prize, says Harper's Bazaar.
He was under 20, and his competitors
were all older than he. He wrote his
mother about it, begging her to come
ind pose for him, saying that he knew
he could win if only she were his sub
ject. She had a large family al home
to look after, and a small boy hardly
two months old. Moreover, the spring
had come, never an easy time for a
mother to break away, pick up small
baby and establish herself alone in
distant town, merely to sit as q model
for son. Most women would have
hesitated, as hoped-for prizes being I'M
certain quantities, particularly for boys
still in their teens, and present home
duties being, according to all rules of
logic, paramount. But this mother did
not hesitate. Her son had asked her to
come, and so proved a rare loyalty.
That was enough for her. At great in
convenience to herself she went, though
cheerfully, and the picture was paint
ed. Now the papers announce that the
young boy painter has won the prize!
This will send him for two years
course of study to Paris.
1t is like some old story of the mas
tiers, and certainly few sweeter stories
of painters and their mothers have ever
been told.
