Bees Zoo smart for Him.


One of our neighbors has for a num-
ber of years past derived a very sat
isfactory revenue from the industry
of his bees. His farm is village lot
so by 200 feet, in sheltered corner Of
which he keeps few colonies Of bees.
With the numerous families he has
always lived in the most perfect har-
mony Of purpose, and each individual
seems to know and respect him, how
ever warlike they may appear to
strange faces. When all the boxes
were filed this season they were re-
placed by others, as is the usual Gus
tom. This operation did not commend
itself to the bees. as it taxed their
proverbial industry to too great an
extent in season of few flowers, like
the past
Seemingly, q council was held and
the question Of a winters supply of
food duly considered and soon carried
into effect Some wise bee found a
small hole in the attic, where 100 or
more pounds Of honey was stored. At
once all the forces of the colonies
were summoned, and with determina-
ton that knows no failure they trans
ferred- every particle of honey from
the garret TO the new boxes on the
hives. A few days ago. when our bee
farmer went to the garret for supply
to fill an order, he found he had been
robbed. No, it was not robbery! The
bees got back what had been taken
from them. 1t was theirs.-New En-

Pictures Produced by the Voice.
The vibration Of the singing voice in
perfect health will produce, through
an apparatus known as the idiophone,
pictures Of flowers in various colOrs.
DR.. Hayden states that the instrument
employed to secure these results is a
porcelain cylinder. measuring six inch
es in length, with a diameter of five
inches closed, at one end. In the wall
Of the cylinder two holes are made on
oposite sides, and into each hole long
tube is. inserted, provided with a
mouthpiece like speaking tube. Over
the open end of the cylinder men,
brane Of great delicacy is placed. and
this is covered with moss plant dust,
the under surface of the membrane
having been previously coated with a
layer of gelatine. On this gelatine
various paints of the primary and Sec
Ondary colors are busted in the form
Of fine powder. In producing the re-
suits referred to. the vocalist must
sing into one of the tubes, the other
being left open; the voice is therefore
contained for time In the cylinder,
and the vibrations. during its transit,
have been found to cause the various
colors to pass through the gelatine and
form the most extraordinary and beau
tiful pictures of flowers. which can be
seen on the exposed surface Of the
membrane.

Huge Tomato Vino.

The sky-scraper stage has been
reached in the development of the to.
nnato in southern California, according
to the Los Angeles Times. One of tie
latest prodigies in that succulent veg
etable is group Of three thirty-foor
vines that have borne fruit at all sea-
sons and under all sorts Of climatic
conditions. These remarkable growths
are in the gardens of F. C. Case in
Pasadena. 1t Is necessary to use an
eighteen-foot ladder to harvest the
tomatoes, for the vines have covered
a trellis twenty feet In height where
they have tangled themselves into a
thick, compact mass of greenery. The
seeds of these wonderful plants were
sown in May, 1903, and have been
growing and bearing ever since; in
fact, the vines are always filed with
bloom and both green and ripe fruit.

A Happy Mother.

Maple Hill. Ia, May 30.-A very re-
markable case occurred here recently.
The people here have never seen any
thing like it and it may interest many
others.
From his infancy. Verne, the little
fve-year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs. J.
Barfoot. of this place, has been sickly.
His mother consulted a doctor, but he
did not begin to improve till some one
suggested that she try remedy called
Dodd's Kidney Pills. From unmistak-
able symptoms she had always be-
lieved that his kidneys were the first
cause of all the trouble, so she bought
a box of Dodd's Kidney Pills and be-
gan giving little Verne two pills day.
In two or three days she noticed an
improvement and she kept on till he
had used about two boxes, when, to
her great joy. he was all right. Every
body remarks how much better Verne
looks and Mrs. Barfoot always ex-
plains "Dodd's Kidney Pills saved his
life"

A Jap,. Dimerent Names

Every European child can answer
the question, "What is your name:"
without hesitation unless he is dumb,
but the Japanese boy must think lit
tie to make sure. for at various periods
Of his life he Is called by different
names. He receives his first when he
is just month old. Then three diff
ferent names are written on three slips
of paper and thrown into the air in the
temple while prayers are addressed to
the family deity That which falls
first to the ground bears the name the
child is called till he is 8 years old.
At Is the japanese boy receives a new
name in honor of his coming Of age.
His name is changed again on the oc-
casion Of his marriage and on any ad-
vance in his position.

BOTH JAWS SHOT AWAY.
Still a Successful Business Man.

Still a Successful Business Man.
A man who had both jaws shot
away had trouble eating ordinary food,
but found a food-drink that supplies
the nutriment needed. He says:
Il have been an invalid since the
siege of Vicksburg, in 1866, where l
was wounded by MIME ball passing
through my head and causing the en-
tire loss of my jaws. l was drum
mer boy, and at the time was leading
a skirmish line, carrying gun. Since
that time l have been awarded the
medal of honor from the Congress Of
the United States for gallantry on the
field.
1.-The consequences of my wound
were dyspepsia in its most aggravated
form, and l finally proved ordinary
coffee was very hard OH my stomach,
SO l tried Postum and got better. Then
l tried common coffee again and got
worse. l did this several times, and
finally as Postum helped me every
time l continued to use it, and how
often 1 think that if the Government
has issued Postum to US in the Army
how much better it would have been
for the solder boys than coffee.
Coffee constipates me and Postum
does not; coffee makes me spit up my
food. Postum does not; coffee keeps me
awake nights, Postum does not. There
is no doubt coffee is too much Of 4
stimulant for most people and is the
cause Of nearly all the constipation.

'The opening speech for the defense

was a complete and mastery argu-

an elaborate talk, and finally Colonel
Herring had his say. The jury deIib-

The Man on the Bunk.


"After the charge of Stone river"
said Dan A. Anderson, Il helped my
wounded brother to hospital and as
sisted the surgeons in looking after
him and other wounded. When 1 start
ed TO return to my company l was
commanded TO remain, and, carrying
the matter to regimental headquarters
in protest against the action Of Sur

was detailed temporarily for hospital
duty.
$50 it happened that 1 served as
wardmaster and chief cook Of ward b,
general field hospital, Army of the
Cumberland, chief cook of all the
wards. expert nurse, doing all the diff
cult bandaging, and finally serving as
commissary. While at Stevenson some
weeks later 1 was in my tent making
out a requisition for supplies, when In
walked darky, who, without saying
word, sat down on my bunk. l had
quite number of colored men work
ing for me, and as it was no. new
thing to have one of them come to my
quarters, 1 paid no attention to the
man on the bunk.

an hour, and was on the point Of start
ing for headquarters to have the requi-
sition countersigned when the darky
said: 'Ain't youins gwine to show me
whah to lie down? Why, yes,' be-
gan, out there under that tree 10
this the man on the bunk answered
plaintively: The doctah sent me ovah

I asked, with the patience of the indif
ferent. What ails you" and he an
swered: 4 has got de smallpox; dat's

''This settled the question of indif-
ference. Taking a good look at him,
1 saw that Vesuvius couldn't hold
candle to him in the matter of break
the surgeons tent, and 1 was soon
there i'm hot temper over the sending
of q smallpox case to my tent. The
surgeon laughed and said: 4 told him
to go over there to that tent point
ing to the real thing, away up on the
side of the mountain, half mile away,
but directly in line with my tent.
TT was another case Of nobody to
blame, but the fact that the negro
stopped short of the smallpox hospital
was troublesome one. Two in our
camp took the disease, and one from
Centerville, Ind, died. The other case
was that Of a preacher, acting as chap
lain Of the camp, who stuck his head
in at my tent, yelled smallpox and
boited. 1t was quick work and great
joke, but he had the smallpox all the
same. Surgeon Wood, by the way,
was, in himself, whole dramatis per-
sonae of four-horse power. He had
this legend above his desk:

Attend to that buississness,
And go about your buississness,
So we can attend to our buississness.

SWIMMING on LAND.

Some ten years ago a well-known
German doctor named Roth startled
the educational authorities in Berlin
by asserting that the proper way to
teach swimming to children was to in
struct them In certain movements and
exercises in the Fairgrounds. DR..
Roth's theory was at first laughed at.
The doctor, however, stuck to his guns,
and to-day he has the satisfaction of
knowing that the state schools Of
France and Germany have adopted his
system. In London the school board
regards it with great favor, and sew
eral schools have included it, with Ger
tain notifications, in their curriculum.
The London schools which have
adopted DIR. ROth's system have added
an improvement which consists of q
curiously constructed desk on which
advanced pupils are placed, and are
able to counterfeit all the motions and
bring into play the various muscles
used In swimming. The great advan-
tage Of children being taught SWIM

ming in this manner Is that the timid
as we'll as the daring enjoy equal op-
portunities. In the ordinary way many
children are paralyzed with terror
when placed in the water, and it is
impossible to instruct them.
If they have had a thorough course
Of instruction in the school gymnasium
or the playground. however, they mas
ter all the movements, which practice
renders in the course of time instinct
i've. Thus when they at last enter the
water they do so with confidence.
The children are first Of all drilled
In the movements of the arms, shoul-
ders and legs. Then they are taught
the side stroke, and after they have ar
rived at proficiency they undergo a
course Of instruction on the patent
desk. When the children have thor
oughly mastered all the movements
they are taken to swimming baths.
Last year 44,354 children were in
structed in swimming on dry land"
Il, $50 were taught to swim well, and
6.362 earned certificates for proficiency.
Judging from these figures, it appears
that in the near future Londoners at
all events will become amphibious.

EVERYBODY. TAxes, MATCHES.

Hotels Expend Large Amount for
Free Distribntion.
at would be interesting to know
how much the hotels of Washington
spend each year for matches for free
distribution" said hotel clerk to
Washington Star reporter the other
day. There is no doubt the outlay
amounts to large sum in the course
Of year. 1t is a matter of more than
passing interest to watch different men
as they approach the place where the
matches are kept for the use Of the
guests of the hotel. Nearly every man
wears a different expression and every
man has his own peculiar way Of
reaching for the matches. 1t is a rare
thing for a man to take simply one
match, although he may need only one
to light his cigar. But he will take
more than one. He will light his
cigar or his cigarette and sometimes
his pipe and the rest of the matches
lie will shove down in his pocket.
Matches are cheap enough, OF
course, but 1 bet the yearly match bill
of this hostelry will reach into the
hundreds of dollars. Taking all the
hotels in Washington, you can read
ily see that the total match bill would
amount to quite snug little sum. 1t
is also a rather singular thing that
men who smoke with great regularity
seldom have matches in their pockets.
Men who never smoke do not need
matches except to light the gas when
they go home after nightfall. What
becomes of all the matches, anyway?
Men are always asking for matches.
OF course, many matches are burned
I'D by men who smoke cigarettes. Tho
cigarette is the greatest match con-
sumer in the world. The pipe will
probably run good second. But
matches when put in public holder
become public property and any man
has a right TO fill his pockets If it
pleases him to do so. Hotel men make
no complaint about the matter"

by his. His simplicity, strength, dar-
ing, skill and indOmitable will endear.
ed him to his troops, while his success
ses reused their admiration. When.
ever great cheering was heard in Jack
sons camp those who were detained
from being present at the occasion
would say: Here comes either Jack
son or an old rabbit
While in camp and winter quarters,
Jackson's soldiers indulged in jocular
stories-"camp stories," as they were
called. made up by them about their
general.
''Stonewall died." ran one of these
stories, "and two angels came down
from heaven TO take him back with
them. They went to his tent-he was
not there; they went to the outposts-
he was not there; they went to the
prayer meeting-he was not there. Sc
they had to return without him. But
when they came to heaven they found
that he had made a flank march and
had reached heaven ahead Of them"
Another story was this:
The soldiers declared that Gen. Jack
son was greater than Moses.
"It took Noses" they said, ''fOrty
years to lead the Israelities through
the wilderness. with mamma to feed
them on; StOnewall Jackson would
have dOuble-quicked them through II

At one time. when JacksOn's camp
was on the southern bank of the Rap
pahannock and that of the Federals ON
the northern bank of that river, a
friendly intercourSe-nOtO only confined
to the exchange of coffee and tobacco
existed between the Outposts of the
two armies, and friendly greetings
were often exchanged across the river.
One day, when Jackson rode along the
river and the Confederate troops ran
together, as was their custom, to greet
him with a yell. the Federal pickets
shouted across the river, asking what
it was all about '.Stonewall Is COM
