THE SHADOW PLAIDS.
A Pretty Yelling Made UP to Initiate
Muslin and Black and Cream De-
signed for Travelling Wear.

Very soft yelling in shadow plaids
is made up into soft frocks to initiate
muslins. These are especially eff
fective in the cream and blue, black
and white, and pink and cream checks.
One of the smartest designs that
serves for travelling, mountains, sea-
shore and general morning wear is
shadow plaid in black and cream A
circular skirt is cut by five-gored pat
tern, perfectly fitting at belt, and very
full from edge of corset. 1t just es-
capes ground. AS trimming the skirt
has two straight bands four inches
wide, edged with white cord These
bands are quite far apart and do not
cover the front width They are An
ished in blunt points and triangle Of
bone buttons. The waist has no full
ness at shoulders, is cut on the bias
of the plaid, is slightly double breast
ed, finished with six bone buttons and
black cording.
There is three-inch chemisette and
stock of heavy Torchon lace Well
below this is two-inch ruff1e of the
yelling, headed with broad band Of
applied linen embroidery. This ruffie
does not quite meet in back or front,
but covers the top of the sleeve. The
cuff is of embroidery applique and ex-
tends to the elbow. With this is worn
a high belt of soft rose pink leather
and hat of the same shade of horse
hair, trimmed in shaded pink roses.

HEALTH AND BEAUTY.

When using pumice stone for super
fluouS hair wet the stone and treat a
small piece of skin at one time. Do
not rub vigorously, or a sore spot will
result Afterward cover with pure
emolient.
A tired woman will find it very re-
freshing after day of nervous strain
or over-eKertion to take a very hot
bath, with some aromatis mixture add
ed to it, just before dinner. 1t will
take all the worn look away.
When the cold morning bath is Gus
tomary, at least three hot baths a week
should be taken. The best time for
these will be when dressing for dinner
in the evening. The feet must be
bathed night and morning under any
circumstances.
If you meet with bitter disappoint-
ment don't fret, don't cry over it. If
you do you pay penalty which you
can i'll afford. No woman can fret and
nag and worry and keep away the
marks of age-or retain her beauty
and power to please.
If people would study the various
vegetables, fruits, cereals, ETC., as to
their medicinal qualities in adjusting
ailments of the human body they
would rarely ever resort to such meth
DDS for relief as taking pills, paregoric
or patent medicines, which only give
tempoTary relief.
Brain work should never follow a
heavy meal, unless onc has just COM
pleted long brain rest. After good
nights sleep and bath the system
is in the right state for substantial
meal and brain work following this
will be well done. Things are very
different three or four hours later.
Now the brain is not so fresh and the
system has no great need for food.
Periodical washing is always essen
tial to purity of the scalp. Without
such washing it is not possible to keep
the hair and scalp free from destruc-
tive bacteria. If, on account of illness
one may not wash the head the use
of any lotion or pomade is wrong, be-
cause there is always an unabsorbed
remainder and this must in process of
time undergo decomposition. Frequen-
cy of washing must be determined by
the state of the hair. also by the char
acter of any remedies used. In some
cases weekly washing is needed; in
others it will suffice to wash fortnight
~, or every third week.

ferent character. 1t is estimated that
5000 bees make fairly strong colony,
and at this rate the SO hives in this
roof apiary shelter about 100000
bees. The hurrying crowds on Friend
street know nothing of the great army
of these buzzing insects sailing
through the air many feet above the
street.
Many colonies of bees are used by
greenhouse men, who keep them in
their hothouses for the purpose of
fertilizing the plant blossoms, which
the bees accomplish by Carrying pol
len from one flower to another.
Some fruits and vegetables will not
produce crop unless cross fortified
in this manner This benefcent serv-
ice is performed all ullwittingly,
however. The bees seek the blossoms
in search of nectar and pollen for
their own use.
They are provided with two stom-
achs. The nectar which they suck
from a blossom goes into the first
stomach, and is there partly trans
formed into honey What is needed
for immediate use in order to sustain
the life of the bee then passes on to
the second stomach, and is taken into
the system. The rest is given up and
packed away in the cells of the honey
comb.
The pollen is gathered in little
baskets attached to the legs of the
bees, and in flying from flower to
flower little of this pollen is spilled
from the baskets and the work OF
fertilization is accomplished.
It is well understood. now that the
female bees do all the work of honey
gathering. There are only few hun
dred drones or male bees to a hive,
and at the end of the season they are
driven out to die, only the working
bees and queens remaining through
the winter.
In the spring the queen begins to
lay eggs at wonderful rate, some
times producing several times her
own weight in eggs in 8 single day.
She has the power OF laying male or
female eggs at will and keeps them
separate. The idea that the queen
directs all the activities of the hive
and rules the colony with an iron
hand, to speak figuratively, is err
roneous.
The queen is not a ruler; she is
simply an egg layer, but as she lays
all the eggs for the colony it is neces-
sary that she be kept in the best OF
condition, and for that reason the
other bees treat her with great con-
sideration, feed her, coddle her and
make her life as easy as possible.
There is widespread belief that
honey is greatly adulterated and that
even the combs are artificial-in fact,
statements to this effect are frequent
ly seen in print. AS matter of fact,
such a thing as an artificial comb
is never sold, for the reason that no
such comb has ever been invented that
the bees will make use of.
1t is a common practice to place
ready-made foundations in the hive
for the bees to fill with honey, but they
invariably are made from pure bees
wax, that the bees made in the first
place, and the bees work it over care
fully before filing the cells with
honey.

And I may take mine ease at last;
Quiet and peace my friends shall be.

All, what may be more fair than these
The hungry heart of man to please!

Come, joy of life. with me abide,

TO AVOID GETTING STUNc.
Some Hints as to the Proper and Safe
Way of Handling the
Busy Bee.

A great many people are stung
through their own carelessness. often
have seen beekeepers, while was show
ing them bees, stand directly in front of
the hives. and they didn't seem to think
they were doing anything wrong till the
bees reminded them that they were in
the way by attempting to sting them,
says correspondent in Farmer and
Breeder. If you want to observe the
bees, always stand directly behind the
hive, then you seldom get stung in at
tempting to open the hive. This is I'M
necessary, for if you go gently and loos-
en- the cover without Earring the hives
or its inmates you will seldom ever set
stung.
1t is always best to have lighted
smoker with you when opening hives,
but the use of too much smoke often
makes bees sting. OF course, where
there has been robbing going on in the
yard smoke is necessary. for these rob-
bers will pounce onto the bees just as
soon as you raise the cover, and in times
like this you had better postpone open
ing the hives till robbing has subsidized.
Then, again, I notice that very mary
people hold combs too near their faces.
This is bad policy. Alwa5s hold the
comb above or below your breath, for it
you breathe on them they get angry at
once. Then, again, when you lift out q
comb always be careful not In crush any
hes, for if you do it will cause them to
sting you right away. Some bee keep.
ers use wet towel and lay over the
frames of a hive when they want to ex-
anime the frames This is effectual in
driving them from the top bars of thu
frames, but look out when you take it
off. They are prepared for fight, and
the chances are you will get stung before
you close the lid
Some people always get stung when
lear bees. This is through the scent OF
their bodies, which the bees are quick
to discover. Their sense oil smell en-
ables them to distinguish AM different
scent and what is not to their liking they
resent with a sting. Then again bees
seem to object to color. A person
wearing dark coat or hat will rouse the
anger Of the bee. Their sight is very
acute. / have seen flocks Of chickens
running among the beehiyes, some
white, some black, and the white ones
can stay anywhere around the entran-
ces, but the black ones are soon driven
away by the bees. Again, some clothing
irritates the bees worse than others.
Anything that has rough surface will
cause the bees to be very angry. have
many times had people tell me how cross
their bees were, saying they sting them
through heavy buckskin glove. Now
buckskin glove is the very worst to use
among bees. The oiled duck glove is the
incest thing to use if you are afraid OF
getting your hands stung.
