BEE KEEPING FoR WOMEN.


A great number of women are talk
ing up bee keeping as an occupation,
and the subject is becoming of more
interest yearly to the country popula-
tion.
ST often hear the question asked,
Does bee keeping payT" says a
writer in the Agricultural Times. '"Ho
those who really intend to do their
best for these hard working insects,
and not get tired of them after the
first year or so, they will be found a
great source of pleasure and profit,
more especially when the small cost
of starting q few hives is taken into
consideration.
"In starting colony of bees one
must choose a good bar framed hive.
This is rather q difficult thing for an
amateur to do, considering the guam
tity Of different kinds Of hives on the
market. The best hive for practical
purposes is the most simple one that
can be bought at reasonable price,
with only the absolutely necessary dt-
tings, which should consist of the fol-
10 wing: A removable floor board on
deep ioists, o nineinch body box,
with double walls, with packing be-
tween to equalize the temperature.
The body should contain a porch to
protect the entrance into the hive, and
the entrance should be fitted with
sliding runners to alter the size of the
aperture as the different seasons OF
the year require. The body should
be made large enough to take ten
standard bars, this sized hive being
found the most practical. Above this
nine-inch body, which is known as
the brood chamber, is a six.inch lift,
with removable inside walls, ar
ranged to take either set of ten
shallow bars or a crate Of sections
above this. The bars should be filled
with full sheets of foundation.
"The next important question is to
stock the hive. This can be done in
a number of ways. The following
are the two methods most adopted:
About the end of March or the be-
ginning of April purchase a good,
strong, healthy stock Of bees. The
purchaser, however, should have q
guarantee from the vendor that the
the stock Is perfectly healthy and free
from foul brood This will bring
the cost of beginning up to about
$40. A smoker, a pound or two OF
foundation and a few extra sections
are necessary; a veil is also neces-
sary, but this can generally be made
at home.
"By stirling with a good, strong
stock in April the bees will be ready
for the honey crop as soon as it APP
pears, and very often it is possible to
take OF surplus honey early in the
sea on and sell it at a higher price
than later on, when there is more in
the market. A good stock will always
give of large swarm, and so in
crease the beekeeper's assets. Sixty
sections in hive is a good yearly av
erage.
"Bee keeping is not only q profit
able occupation, but it is most inter-
esting aud instructive to those who
take the trouble to watch and study
the ways and habits of bees; their
instinct aud ingenuity is simply mar
velous, and whole pages could be
written upon their curious aud clever
ways. Bee keeping is well fitted for
women to take up, as it does not en-.
tail any heavy work; the great difi

overcome, there is q good chance OF

AN EPlTAPB.


A worthy dentist rests beneath
This hgh-heaped, grassy mound;
True man was he, although his teeth
Full often false were found.
All obstacles he did despise
Aud often would he brag
He rather liked, than otherwise,
10 run against a snag.
Much suffering dld he assuuge,
His patients lost each paug,
Though erst the throbDlng tooth might
rage,
As they his doorbell rang.
His speech was frequent and most free.
Right seldom would he pause,
Although a master hand was he
At holding others jaws.
He owned no family or clan,
But gave all satisfaction,
Tor all agreed he was a man
or excellent extraction,
lie died without q sob or groaD,
He lived in decent gravity,
And now, beneath this mossy stone,
He's Allng his last cavity.

For snrIng street wear.

Embroidered dots, bowknots and
stripes ornament many of the sprin g
dress goods. Grey veilings, with
white bowknots-very small ones and
beautifully wrought - are light and
summery looking and with touches OF
white introduced in the trimming the
effect is youthful aud pretty. A silk
crepon of rich appearance has a
rippled effect, TIE rippled part stand
ing up from a ground embroidered
with velvet and chenille dots. Black
aud white effects are carried out in
this singular design, while in some
instances the raised effect is in pink,
blue or lilac, outlined by a gold
thread, while the ground is in black.
In crepe foulard-a first cousin to
crepe de Chine--the material itself is
of any soft pastel tint, but the en-
broidered lot is invariably black.

shall probably not hear so much of
the fin de steele girl. She has been
cayorting around in conversation and
cold type in all sorts of possible and
impossible ways for the last few years,
until the words have come to be mean
ingless, not to say deadly dull. Prob
ably not half the people who use the
expression know what it means, so it
may last over for a time until the
really bright person who says things
not half bad in the first saying starts
sometimes about the beginning-of-the-

I.ule For wearIng WING Tulle Bows.

Rule For Wearing While TuIle Bows.
The rule adopted FOR the wearing of
the white tulle bow has its exception,
of course. The woman with q short
neck, probably with plump figure,
wears the tulle bow set at the nape Of
the mock. This does not rob her Of
any space beneath the chin nor make
her look as if garroted. The girl who
has too slender throat conceals her
lack of flesh by putting the bow under
the chin, where it helps to fill up the
vacant space.
