(Words by Walter Church.J


 And merily rejoice.
 "The flowers chase the fleeting snow
 Far up the greenlng hills
 Flowers, flowers, everywhere
 Our laughing May Queen wills.
 Her sunny smile shines in our hearts,
 And flowers blossom there
 Come. let us er,wn our May Queen,
 The fairest of the fair"
 Then the pink-robed Queen of the Fairies crowned the Illy-white Queen Of May, who very prettily responded "No queen of May, my royal maids,
 Was e'er so blest as l.;
 Such greetings from such loving hearts
 Woul1 every grief defy.
 May sunshine ever fill your hearts,
 And flowers bloom for you;
 May good deeds ever crown your lives
 And keep you kind and true.
 Be each of you a royal queen,
 And all your gifts employ
 To brighten sonow-shaded lives,
 And fill your own with joy.
 "Your Queen greets all her loving sub. jects and now declares our spring festival opened in due form.
 May the memory of this night ever shine in our hearts.lIke jewels in crown. Let the May pole dance begin"
 As the Queen seated herself upon her royal throne, the graceful little dancers, without a mistake, went through the beau tiful mazes of the May pole dance in a way that was a great credit to themselves and the ladies who had drilled them so patiently, namely Mrs. Redmond, Mrs, Pc rec, Mrs. Burns and Miss Prather. Mrs. Braekett presided at the piano during the May pole dance by the following twelve little girls: Stella Ford, Lucille Taylor, Susie Frank, Florence Suffeecoal, Bertha Bracket, Dorothy WinslOw, Edith Spencer, Belle Burns, Lulu Prayther. Mabel 9th mer, Katherine Bracket and Neomie De Witt.
 The pages were Frank Marburger and Emmit Felix.
 The May pole dance is relic of an ancient religious festival which maidens of the old world enjoyed ages before the Py' ramlds of Egypt were built. It has lost its sgnlfc nee but retains its beauty, and it was never given more delightfully than by Skagway's dainty little maids.
 The following musical programme was rendered and every singer eneored;
 Song-"The Soldiers Who Died on the Maine" Encore, ''ln the Baggage Car Ahead" E. Prather.
 Baritone Solo-"Answered." Encore, "The Armorer's song from Robin Hood," MT. Difiin.
 May Song-"l Knew Little jirl, but Won't Tell Where" Encore, "Phll's Sc; eret," Mrs. Brackett,
 Bass Solo-"Bevond." "Bring Back My Child. Good Sea-" Encore, by special re- quest, Whltnev's Drinking Song," Mr. Holmquest
 The aeeompaniments were played by Mrs. Clemlnger and Miss Webster.
 From first to last the entertainment was a gre [ honor to Skagway and to the good women, under the management of Mrs Battln and Mrs. Ford, who assisted in bringing 1t to such gratifying success. But whatever they undertake is certain to sue eeed. for their cultivated taste, their en- ergy and perseverance always deserve sue cess To those who knew Skagwav as "a tent village on the trail to White Pass" i' is difficult to realize that such an enter talnment as that May Day Festival was possible.
 The following were the receipts of the several booths during the two nights ol l sk. faefiyal.

WORKERS AND DRONES,

For winter stores feeding should begin
about Sept. I.
Dividing bees discourages them, be-.
cause it Weakens them.
1t is necessary to feed while the
weather is warm, as the honey should
be scaled over thoroughly.
At night is the worst of all times jn
which to handle bees. In the heat Of
the day, when the most Of them are on
the wing, is the best time.
Eggs laid by fertile workers always
hatch drones. 1t matters not where the
eggs are laid, in worker or drone comb.
They often prove very troublesome.
Comb honey is easily damaged. One
of it's worst pests is ants. If they be al
lowed access to comb honey, they will
cut the Gaping and destroy the appear
ance of the honey.
Combs that are infested with worms
can be cleaned up in good shape by plac-
ing them in a strong colony Of Italian
bees. They are better for a job Of this
kind than the black bees
One Of the best ways Of rendering out
heeswax Is to put the comb into a sack,
place this into kettle of water and boil
It. The wax will ooze out Of the sack
and rise to the surface. Then it can be
Rkimmed off.-St. Louis Republic.

Flxinx On the Room.

In small rooms it is a mistake to have
cupboards in the little 'recesses 50 often
found on each side Of the fireplace. Il
shelves are really wanted there, have
them by all means, but cover them with
a pretty curtain. This should be huns
from a pole inside the recess, SO as tc
take as little space as. possible from the
room. The effect of. a. pretty piece Of
drapery will be decidedly pleasant to the
eye, and on cleaning days the contents Of
the shelves may be protected by having
a cotton busting sheet fastened over
them, SO that even then the cupboard
doors will not be missed. OF course OF
these special occasions the curtain should
be taken down and thoroughly shaken.-

SO that it slopes to a shawl point at the

employed are often very bright and are

velvet, bordered with cream satin. The

velvet belts with cut steel buckles, and
belts of the soft, wrinkled variety, which
on pretty figure are perhaps the most
pleasing style. Patent leather belts with
leather covered tongued buckle are smart
looking and accompany plain tailor

appropriately. Belts entirely Of metal are
becoming out of date.
A picture is given of cape of gray
golf cloaking. 1t is edged with rows OF
red stitching, and set some distance

These clasps are broad and suggest a
