EAT BEFORE DINING OUT.

A thorough society woman, one
who understands herself, will take
something before going to dinner
party. It may be just cup of hot
tea, perhaps a stimulant in the way
of a cup of black coffee; or, better
than all, a cup of hot milk and bis
cult. This braces up the nerves,
stays the stomach and keeps the body
we'll nourished until it is time for
dinner.
The woman who sets out for for
NAL dinner party without eating any
thing before she goes runs the risk OF
faintness and dullness before the din
ner hour. She is certainly much less
alert than the one who takes bite
before starting out.
The most successful beauties are
those who do not eat great deal at
a dinner party. They take bite of
this and taste of that. but nothing
more. They do not pretend to do
more than taste the dishes, and they
are rewarded for their abstemiousness
eyes and the sharp wits Of the woman
who is at peace with her digestion.
Great beauties eat very little, and
what they do eat is of the simplest
and most nourishing kind. While
they never refuse delicacies, they dc
not eat heartily of them, reserving
the appetite for the simpler and more
nourishing viands.

HOW TO MAKE A LAUGH.

A sure way to raise laugh among
a party of friends is to claim that you
can do an apparently impossible thing
and then get some of your friends to
try it then, when they have tried
and failed do the very thing they
failed on in a simple way which has
never occurred to them. Here is a
deception which seldom fails to work
and which always provides a lot of
fun, even to those who are fooled
by it.
Begin by saying something about
ant.eaters, which have such long
tongues that they can touch the
ground with them without lowering
their heads. Then ask one of your
friends if he can put out his tongue
and touch his ear. He will try, gen.
tly, at first, then harder, and at
length make the funniest face you
can imagine by trying to do that
which is, of course, impossible. Then
others will try until half your guests
are poking their tongues out Of the
corners of their mouths and trying to
curl them around their cheeks until
their ears are reached. Then, when
they are all looking like comic masks,
you calmly put out your tongue, and
touch your ear with your finger. The
effect of this on those who have vain
ly tried the trick will be well worth
the trouble of talking about the ant
aofar

MANAGEMENT OF BEES.

In late issue of the Ame,16an Bee
Journal Edwin Bevins claims to have
discovered two alternative ways in
which laying worker colonies can be
disposed of so as to get all the service
out of the bees that they can render,
and yet keep the number of the COL
onies up to what it was before. One
way is to place the hive containing
the laying workers over strong col
ony with a fertile queen, placing a
newspaper with a small hole in it be-
tween the two Eives. The bees will
unite peaceably, and when consider
able worker brood appears in the up
per hive the hive can be placed on an
other stand and the bees will rear a
queen from the brood, if the old queen
is left in the lower hive; or a fertile
queen can be introduced about three
days after the removal of the hive.
The other plan involves the taking of
a couple of frames of Matching brood
from hive and placing them in an
other hive over strong colony, with
a frame having wire cloth nailed to
both sides of it between the two hives.
Then a fertile queen and her escort
are released on the two combs, and in
a few days there will be nucleus
strong enough to take care of the
queen. This hive is then set down
by the the side of the hive holding
the laying workers. Every two or
three days frame with its bees must
be transferred from the laying worker
hive to the nucleus. By the time all
but two of the frames are placed in
the new hive the queen is at work
there, and everything is harmonious.
AS regards the two frames taken to
form the nucleus, they can be return
ed to the places from which they were
taken, or these places can be filled by
the frames remaining unused in the
LAYING worker hive.

sMARTLY DONE.

Not long ago the police raided
certain confectioners's shop, which
they strongly suspected was being
used for the purpose of betting.
There was only one customer in
the shop at the time. He was small
boy, who watched the proceedings
with evident interest.
"Well, sonny" said a good-natur-
ed sergeant, "what do you want
here?"
my cake" said the youngster,
pointing to a substantial-looking
plum-cake on the counter. "It is
paid for, f" and Mr.. X-"-the pro-
prietor of the shop-"wasj just a-wrap-
ping it up when you nabbed him."
The officer handed over the cake,
and the youngster willingly obeyed
the order to "trot off"
It was some considerable time later
that the police discovered there was
more in that cake than met the eye.
1t was, in fact, cleverly construct.
ed dummy, and the artless small boy
had carried off every one of the In
eliminating slips of paper relating to
that days bets. The raid, needless
to add, was a complete failure.

A REASON FOR SLOW MARRYING 10 AD-
VANCRD.

In recent mdSaZluS dI tlClC d uuAu-
lister of the Gospel discusses the ques-
ton "why women do not marry" or.
if they do, put it off frequently until
they are over thirty. The reverend
gentleman assumes that every normal
woman desires marriage as intensely
and probably as early in life as she
did a hundred or a thousand years
ago. But the spirit of the age affects
her conduct very materially. Wo-
men with an enhanced sense of equal
rights are unwilling Ito sacrifice her
own individuality on the one side or
to become the economic slave of any
man on the other" Luxurious liv-
ing has destroyed the strenuousnesss
of will that sustained the women pio-
neers of this country up to recent
period. Higher standards of living,
which cost money, have since prevail
ed, with the result that marriage has
become an economic or business ques-
ton for all but the very rich or the
very poor, and is not simple ques-
ton of the affections, as in the Gold
en- Age.
1--WE seem," says the reverend
gentleman, "now to have reached the
point where large number of young
men and women are ready to sacri-
fee the thing they do need, namely, a
pure and healthy domestic life, in the
mad and vain endeavor to maintain
an artificial standard of living, which
has no rational justification in their
physical or mental natures, and which
is never justified by realized happi-
ness of which they have dreamed and
for which they have vainly longed.
But he is fool who for the sake of
more stuff to eat and drink and wear
and misuse is willing indefinitely to
postpone a pure domestic life. On
| the other hand he has well nigh mas
tered the secret of happy life who
marries at twenty-five, whatever his
income may be, and who at the same
high resolve to spend each year few
dollars less than his income"
The alternative chosen by many
women is to become self-supporting
| in various commercial and industrial
occupations. A thousand employ
ments are now open to girls who as
| pire to an independent income. These
employments not only FL! up the day,
but the mind, so that Cupid finds his
arrows repelled by well-tempered
armor of Indifference. Women oi
wealth go into various lines of char
liable, literary, scientific or religious
work, which take them from home
and exercise the mind and heart
Life is more complex than formerly,
and the bachelor girl without difficult
ty finds an interesting non-domestic
| career.

ON THE FARM.

One should always farm in such a
way as to maintain the fertility of the
soil. If the farmer raises and sells
off the farm grain and hay to such
an extent that there is not enough fer
tilizing material returned to the soil
to preserve its fertility, he is on the
road to ruin as far as the fertility of
the land is concerned. The time will
come when either he or those who
come after him will find themselves
on poor, worn out farm that refuses
to yield them support, and the farms
will have to be abandoned. The only
road to successful farming lies in
keeping some kind of live stock to
consume the greater part of what
grows out of the soil, and carefully
saving and applying the manure.
The man who thinks his soil mex
haustible is mistaken, and if he lives
on it long enough will find it out.
The farm is the farmers bank, and
fertility is the cash deposit which may

much money in bank but that he,
in time, would get to the end Of it, if
he continually checked out more than
he put in. 1t is advisable to all local.
tiles to raise different crops on the
farm and practice regular system of
rotation, rarely having the same crop
on any given field more than one
year without some other crop inter-
vening. And in this rotation clover
ought to come in every third or fourth
year. A crop Of clover will add ma
terially to the productiveness of the
farm. Its long roots generate the
subsoil, thus breaking it up and i'm
proving the mechanical condition and
bringing up fertility from below,
where it has, to some extent, been
carried on when there was surplus
of water descending through it. 1t
is also one of the very few plants that
has the ability to extract nitrogen
from the air and deposit it in the soil.

public agents in Europe by authority
of the Government as the plan of the

The other report, in 1874, repeats vir-
tually the same statement crediting
the final plan to Major Ellicott. That
Ellicott could have formed the mag

the mind of the versatile and accom-
