The Thenfers in Japan.

The theatars are the very places "a
study the Japanese. In many theaters
the entire house is divided by rails
into square pens 4 by 4 feet, intend
ed for four Japanese, but often con-
tanning half = dozen. The men and
women are barefoot, walk the narrow
dividing rails to reach their reserved
seats" The patrons kneel within
these square pens, or, when there are
no pens, they squat upon the floor in
little circular groups and smoke, eat,
drink, fan themselves and chatter.
Many come in and go out at random.
Children run to and fro. Frequently
the spectators bring luncheon and pass
the day within the theater, the play
continuing uninterruptedly.
The stage, which in some theaters
revolves to change scenes, has two de-
tached projections three feet wide, ex-
tending among the audience. Upon
these projections the performers run,
reciting and acting.
Their acting is sufficiently curious.
4 villain slain walks off the stage, Il
Jap mops with dirty cloth the chief
actors face while he is speaking. The
prompter, dressed all in black, gown,
hood and girdle, will follow the actor
all around the stage. Other persons,
also in black. run TO and fro across the
stage. Those costumed in black are
supposed to be invisible. Stage car
penters and helpers often stand upon
the stage and gaze and laugh at the
actors, and so on.-Baltimore Sun.

New York, Nov. 23.-Captain Chas.
l.. Ottley, l.. y. naval attache to the
British embassy to the United States,
came from Washington yesterday for
the purpose of inspecting the Holland
submarine torpedo boat in behalf of
his government. He was taken To the
boat 10y John L. Holland. who eX-
planned the workings of the vessel to
the captain. For more than two hours
Captain Ottley looked over the ma
chinery and the interior mechanism of
the boat.
He seemed very much impressed
with what he saw. and when asked
his opinion. said: 1T is my intention
to recommend tn the board of ad-
miralty of the British government that
they Immediately consider the merits
of the Holland with n view of the
adoption of vessels of her type into
the British navy. She is TO my mind
the most formidable type of subma
rine boat and has demonstrated that
she is the only successful one.

MANAGEMENT or BEES.
the Strength, Not the Number.
y OF Colonies.

If we would have bees in the best
possible condition sto4Eobtain a. large
yield of honey we would commence
operations as early as possible. 4 large
honey crop depends principally upon
the strength of colonies, and not upon
the number of colonies. One good coll
ony that is strong in numbers, and in
every way in proper condition, will
store more. surplus honey than a dozen
weak ones, and the proper thing to do
is to get everyone as near the desired
strength and condition, and also at the
time needed. Localities differ to some
extent as to the time of the principal
honey harvest, but just atthe opening
Of the same is the time we waEt our
colonies ready. Usually we are safein
commencin as soon as the weat her will
permit. 0 Nh NH
The first thing is to examine every
colony as to condition. Good prolific
queens, and those only, can we build
upon. It is useless to spend time with
inferior queens. for there is no plan
to work to, to make a success of such.
Old queens, say from three years old
and over, may all be discarded, as there
is no exception at this age worth both
ering with. "A few such queens may
seem all right at the beginning, but
in the end they viii not prove so, and
will be everlastingly starting queen
cells and preparing to swarm.
If profitable queens are not available
the best thing to do is to unite all coll
onies containing inferior queens. with
those having good young prolific
queens. While this may cut down the
number of colonies, it will pay in the
end. This defect may always be pro-
svided for during the fall previous if
proper precautions are taken to re-
queen all such colonies. and at this time
we have a good chance to detect all in
1ferior queens. and also owing to the
supply of cheap queens it is much less
expensive and less troublesome at this
time.-A. 81. Duff. il. National Rural.

Fresh eggs are just as knotty al asprob-

ducers. In the first case ii is how to get
absolutely fresh and reliabie eggs, and
for the latter tits a~matter Of how to
reach the consumers directly. The mid
dleman usually comes in and spoils the
efforts OF both sides. He ixes9the alb.

those of another, and supplies his Gus

consumer in time begins to distrnst

this class Of customers will be found
only among the wealthy, who can af-

this they could we'll afford TO peddle
