Bees usually supersede their queens
before they are too old for service; and
when an apiary is once stocked with a
good grade of queens, the bees can, as a
rule, be depended upon to supersede
their queens at the proper time.

one person who proved the rule, de-
clared to her that she was mad.
But Marjorie only smiled, and quiet
ly went on with her preparations, aid
ed and abetted therein by the eXcep-
ton, Frank Ashton, medical student
at st. Paul's, the hospital Marjorie pro-
posed entering. And not to a living
soul did she explain the true reason
for the step she was taking.
Time went on and Marjorie struggled
bravely against the inclination to go
home the end of the first week,
when footache and backache made life
scarcely worth living, and, finally, in
her fourth year, gained distinction in
the shape of gold medal and the sis
tership of a ward.
Although Frank Ashton was long
since qualified he still remained at the
hospital, ostensibly to specialize, but in
reality to watch over sunny-haired,
broWn-eyed Sister Marjorie, whom he
had loved for years. Marjorie frankly
told him that she liked him, but that
was all.

To Keep Syrup From
Fermenting.

Prof. Stockbridge, Of tue Forida
experimental farm, says the great
obstacle in the manufacture Of
syrup was its quick fermentation
and how 10 overcome it. He says !:
II started on supposition based
on the fact that if we would take
out the impurities in the sugar it
could not ferment. The fact is, by
what practical means can We take
out tue impurities in the syrup. /
have tried about everything l have
heard Of to extract the impurities.
BY an accident discovered very
simple thing that would do the work
the loog. grey moss, the Spanish
moss, so-called. This Is an abso-
lutte and positive prevention Of
fermentation of syrup; and the way
ls.to fill barrel in your mill with
this dry moss, and allow the syrup
to run through it. 1t will produce
3 syrup that will not ferment,
which cannot be made to ferment,
aud which ! challenge anybody and
any chemist in the world to compel
to ferment.

A Word To Farmers

e
There never was time when it
was more to tue farmers interests
to bring his produce, Of every kind
to Covingtor, :han just now. This
town is full to ovesfowlDg with
strangers and they are ravenously
hungry for country produce. Chick
ems, eggs, butter, potatoes. cushaws
aud all other produce OF the farm
bring = good price and find a
ready market. while, on the other
hand, our merchants having no long
haul to distant railroad station,
but having q cheap water route to
New Orleans, can afford to pay
more for cotton than can the mer.
chants Of other places.
Now as to any risk you may run
in coming here: In the first place,
there is not q single case OF yellow
fever here, or anywhere else in this
paaish. In regard to New Orleans,
it might be we'll to note that out Of
28O, 900 people they have had only
about 20o0 cases, and large pei
cen: OF those were among Italians.
II you were to come here even or
Wednesdays. the probabilities are
that you might look all day to find
. single man who had this yeal
come in contact with case Of the
fever. Then again, the fever is MOI
what it once was. DR.. Sexton, o1
New Orleans, says that above Cana
street, the death rate is about one
death in 100 cases. Surely you art
not afraid of such fever and less
so should you be to come to Gov
