Only man clogs his happiness with
care, destroying what is, with thoughts
OF what may be.
Ii we would look back with
pleasure ON the past, let it be our en-
deavor to make good use OF the
present.
He is happy whose circumstances
suit his temper, but he is more ex-
cellent who can suit his temper to
any circumstances.
No success is worthy of the name
unless it is won by honest industry
and brave breasting OF the waves Of
fortune.
To be able to use the tongue fluent
ly is undoubtly great advantage in
many cases; but the power TO keep
silence is equally advantageous.
Outlines that which is assigned to
genius should more properly be at
tributed to that silent giant, concen
tration, which is the lever by which
mountains can be removed.
Selfrespect is clean and gracious
well-fitting garment wherein We can
move at ease among our fellows, pass
ing quietly beyond the tawdry little
platform where s5lf-esteem is forever
making its bow and acting its lines
to an Indifferent and unattentive
audience.
Human strength can be gained
through human energy. 1t is not el-
ways gift which Nature showers
upon some and denies to Others, but
is often gradual development in the
individual, progressing in accordance
with the active efforts and earnest
struggles which he puts forth.

A Maryland Wonder.

Upper Cross Roads, Nd, June 18TH
Never in the history of medicine in this
state has anything created such a sen.
sation by its marvellous cures of the most
extreme cases as Dodd's Kidney Pills.
This wonderful medicine seems to know
no limit in its wonder working power.
Long-standing cases that have defed the
most expert medical treatment seem to
yield easily to this new conqueror of dis
ease.
Hundreds have testified to the virtue
of Dodd's Kidney Pills. They tell of Sc
we're cases of Rheumatism, Lumbago,
Backache, Female Trouble, Nervous Dis.
eases and even Dropsy, Diabetes and
Brights Disease cured by this medicine.
Among those who have been benefited
may be mentioned Mrs. John Cooney of
this place.
Mrs. Cooney says:
Il believe Dodd's Kidney Pills the best
remedy ever known for Kidney Trouble
and weak back.
"They are without exception the best
medicine have ever used.
Il will always praise them highly, for
I know that they are good"
Mrs. Cooney is only one of many who
say of Dodds Kidney Pills:
THE most wonderful remedy we ever
| heard Of"

pluckins Ducks and Geese.

The best time to pluck ducks and
geese is when they begin to drop their
feathers. It is better to pluck them
than to have their feathers scattered
in every direction, but the practice of
plucking them every time the feathers
IRE renewed is not always economical.
1t takes vitality and varied assort-
ment of food to reproduce feathers.
and as this is drain on the system
the females will not lay. You can
not always have the feathers and

HE FOUND AN OPENING.
cant Found 1t DiMcult
to Fill.

Mayor Schmitz of San Francisco tells
of an untiring politician who demanded q
position. To escape him and kindred
men the mayor had hied himself to the
suburbs. And in the suburbs the APP
plicant halted the mayor, relates the Bos-
ton Post. The politician placed his cane
behind him and rested on it as q seat.
Better opportunity had never been pre-
scented for arguing his just claim. His
fidgeting caused the cane to move slight
ly. Yes, sir" said the Office seeker, II
am entitled to a position in the. city's
service and am looking for an opening"
"Is there any kind of work to which
you are adapted" asked the mayor.
The man took courage from the ques-
ton and said that any kind of an OPEN
ing would suit.
By this time the mans unsteadiness had
brought the cane, which was bearing his
weight, precariously near knot hole.
The mayor thought. In expectancy the
applicant shifted his position. The next
instant he was endeavoring to follow his
cane through hole in the board walk.
'"There," said the mayor, very much re.
lieved, SIS an opening for. you. Try and
fill it; if you don't succeed, see the board
of public works."

on a run, and then you may as well
give up the job, if you do not wish
to run the risk of manning her. At
another time, when she stands in the
center, several bees caressing her,
make one grasp for the wings with
the right hand, just between the alb
domen and the thorax. Do not be
afraid of crushing the wings; but be
careful to avoid pinching or punch
ing the queen on the comb, and espe-
cially squeezing her soft abdomen.
If you catch her right, she will be
as shown in Fig. 1. She will bend
the abdomen over. and reach with
her hind legs around behind in the
effort, just as shown, to push the fin
gers away. With the left hand,
catch hold of her between the thumb
and fore finger in such way that
the finger will be on top ard the
thumb beneath. (See Fig 81 If you
grab her by the waist you need not
be afraid of hurting her. for this pos
ton of her anatomy will stand con-
siderable pressure without injury.
With the right hand take a rair- of
scissors and clip one wing at about
the point shown in the illustration
Gig. 81; but do not clip both wings
as there shown. In putting the
queen back on the comb, be very
careful not to let her drop. Let her
down gently on the comb, or raise
the forefnger and let her crawl from
the thumb on to the comb.
have seen some veterans who pre-
ferred to grab hold of the queen as
shown in Fig. 2. She is first picked
| up as shown in 1, then she is caught
bv the legs as shown in 2. While a
veteran can hold queen in this way,
the average beginner would be liable
| to squeeze too hard and pull her legs
off; then if you grab one leg only,
the queen will revolve round and
round till she twists it off, and in all
/ probability take wing. The plan
shown in 1 and is the safer to en-
ploy.
There will be times when one does
not have handy pair of scissors,
Very we'll; he is to pick the queen up
as shown in 1; then hold her with
the left hand, as illstrated in B.
/ Now with the knife in the right
hand, place one of the queens wings
j on the corner of hive body or hive
cover in such way that the knife
blade will cut through into the wood
severing the wing. I do not know
but I would about as soon have
common knife, if it is sharp, as scis-
sors.-Gleanings in Bee Culture.

Wheat chaff is not only an excellent
absorbent, but it renders the floor
warm and comfortable. 1t is but a
small matter to clean off a floor that
has been covered with half an inch of
chaff, as it brings with il. all the. drop
pings, and leaves the floor smooth and
clean. It is better than dirt in one re-
spect, for it serves as kind of litter
in which the hens will work and scratch
if few grains are thrown over the

for. Do not allow the drinking water
to wet the chaff, however, but keep the

It cures old chronic cases as well as a

in the length of time that it should be
