Missouri people are Dragging on a
paper, not yet yearling, that has
had three editors. FrostburG sees
that ratio and calls it "a bluff"
The mayors of Allegany and Borden
Shaft held their semi. monthly con
ference in Frostburg last Saturday
evening. a resolution was unani-
mously adopted thanking themselves
for streets in their respective towns
which are much better than those in
Frostburg, where taxes are paid to
keep streets in good condition.

THE DEAD GARDENER.

What bloom shall we lay in his fingers cold
Who lleth at length in his shroud
The blossoms that blazon their beauty bold
Sr the shy little wilding that hardly can hold
Its head erect in a crowd2
The lordly lily and queenly rose
He watcrCd and trcllsed well,
Yet he loved the tinest flower that blows
And only the heel troddcn daisy knows
Where the dew of his tcardrop fell

rruit cnltnre aud rsee.

The fruit grower who is able to han die bees without much trouble will find them not only profitable in them selves, but of great value to his or- chard fruits. As rule the blossoms of fruit trees are we'll fertilized by the various insects of the section, but in many cases the domestic bee has made orchards profitable that for years failed to set fruit blossoms in any quantity. Many bee culturists make a practice of setting the hives in the orchard, to the advantage of both bees and trees. The objection to this practice has been urged that bees sting fruit of various kinds, especial. ly grapes, pears and plums. This is not so, for bees rarely, if ever, pune. ture fruit, although frequently found taking the juices from fruits previous, injured by birds CT in other ways. The best results from bees in the orchard are obtained when the trees are low. This will enable the bees to pollenize the blossoms all over the trees and will also make the gathering of the fruit easier. Try hive of bees among the trees that have been shy bearers and note the results.

Selecting the Breeding Female.

While fully realizing the importance of the male farm stock breeding, due importance should be given to the SC. lection of the female in order to ob- tain the highest grade progeny. Short ness or chubbiness of form in the fe- male should be carefully avoided, as such animals are not good breeders. Of course, the opposite extreme is just as objectionable, The animal should be clean cut, with a fine head, light Jaw and long neck. The limbs should ba delicate and of good length-that is, they should not be short and knotty nor yet long and thin. When the COW has horns avoid choosing for breeders those with short thick horns. It is difficult to describe the ideal animal, but the points are instinctively appar- ent to any close observer. In short, probably the best way to judge is to decline any female that has a mascuI- inc look in any marked degree, for this may be safely taken as an indiea- ton that she will fall short of the mark, in some important respect, IS 8 breeder

Where Women Are Ignored.

One of the marks of woman's sub jeeti61 which has rot yet been att tackled by the suffrage societies is the absence of her name from the City Directory. Unless she happens to be 8 widow or engaged in some active busi- ness pursuit she has no place in that book of universal reference.
 Such women as Dr. Mary Putnam Jacobi and Mrs. Lillie Devereau Blake are recorded, and so are dozens of other women who are heads of Vari- ous business enterprises, but women who have no occupation outside their own homes must be sought for In so- cial registers and society lists. Even women who hold responsible positions in business firms are ignored by the directory, though the name of every clerk in the city Is duly recorded. In the vast majority of cases the direc- tory women whose names are sprin- kled among the Johns, Thomases and Charleses are described simply as "wid.," which means that their hus- bands are dead and that they have succeeded to the headship of houses.

 Casting n Statue.

Most persons think bronze statue Is solid. If this were so 1t would be im- possible to move most of the large ones, for the giant statue of Pan, by George Barnard, which has just been cast in New York city, weighs four tons, and is only half an inch thick. The statue is thirteen feet long. 3 reclining figure, and the bronze cast Ing, which is entire, is the largest ever made in this country. A sand mold. Weighing 27 tons, was QRde from the plaster figure. On the large surfaces three or four tons of sand would be hammered solid. but h the intrieacies of the fingers and the curly beard tiny pieces of mold were made, taking weeks at time, fitting together like a puzzle. When the entire plaster statue was covered with these molds they were removed and baked hard as stone. then built up together and the hollow 6lled with sand, which was tamped in- 10 solidity. When the moIds were taken of fine copy of Pan in sand appeared. but skilful hands went over the statue, taking off half an inch from the surface all over it. Then the mutilated sand statue was replaced inside the mods and the space between the core and the molds filled in with the melted bronze. which weighed four tons This is the way bronze statues are made.

BELTS FOR THE THROAT.
A Novel Stock Collar Which Is Now Be-
 coming Quite g Fad.

Novel Stock Collar Which Is Now Be-
 coming Quite Fad.
 The latest foundation for tue popular Astoek collar is fitted with a finely tem. pered steel spring, which clasps the neck closely and holds the stock in place without any trouble. It does not bind the neck, as 1t Is very light and yields to each movemeut, and, although It looks firm and snug, it does not choke.
 This light spring, tapping little at the back somewhat like a key ring or bracelet, can be bought and covered at nome, and can be recovered many times, as steel never wears Out.
 A metal stock which does not require to be covered, but is intended as an article of jewelry, is quite fad now. These stocks or collars are very much like a dog collar or belt. They are made 1n great variety of form and pattern-plain jewelled, silver and gold. Some are arranged in medalli- ons, with a circle of chains between and Intended to be worn over some bright ribbon or chiffon stock. while others are of solid metal and fastened With buttons and eylets, with slides, hooks and eyes, regular belt buckles, or JeWelry clasps of the old fashioned styles.
 These throat belts are made tomatch waist belts and can be had in any pat tern i'll sets to order.
 Belt buckles. from being very tiny, have suddenly jumped to the opposite extreme. They cover the entire front part of the waist, extending around nearly under the arms in some cases, and are four or five inches broad. The same effect is carried out in the back.

The Prince of Wales is the third member of the royal family who has received an injury to the knee. The Queen slipped about fifteen years ago and hurt her knee-an occurrence which has caused her to refrain from unnecessary walking exercise ever since.
