THE HONEY COMB PACKING CASE.

if was first printed, some Of the roads
were inclined to, consider that all
comb honey in shipping cases with
glass front was in glass, and, conse-
quently, the freight rate was pushed
up one notch; but after considerable
explanation we showed that, evidently,
such classification referred to honey in
bottles; that comb honey in shipping
case with glass fronts ought to go as
second. class, because the percentage
of. glass was very small to the amount
Of wood. All the railroads, / think,
now accept shipping cases with glass
fronts as second class. But the bee
keeper must not make the mistake of
having such honey billed Gin glass" or
else it will go at first class rates.
The Aspinwall case is very unique
one; and if the discrimination against
glass fronts had continued the all
wood case with the lettering would
have been the solution.
The atwood case can be made con-
sierably cheaper, and l do not know
why it would not be just as good. II
the freight handler cannot read he
ought to be bounced from the payroll.
Shipping cases with glass fronts have
been broken into and the fine cakes
of honey despoiled by some big fin
gers, time and time again. The Aspin-
wall case would prevent anything OF,
this kind. /
The arrangement of the no-drip
cleats in mortises or slots in the ends
of the case is very unique. 1t could
not, however, be very well applied to
a glass-front case showing four sec
tons six deep. But where the cases
are two-row, like the sample here
shown, there will be no trouble about
mortising for the cleats.

upon them; rain falls heavily, the ar
tillery Of Heaven crashes with detona-
tons that shake the foundations Of the
mountains, while the flashes of cleo
tee fire are terrifying.
1t lasts nearly an hour, and a deluge
alls that converts puny mountain
brooks into raging torrents-then the
tropical storm moves away over the
high peaks that inclose the valley, and
again silence broods over the scene of
the late struggle.
OF course, our friends have little
heart for scenes of pleasure. but after
mature consultation it is thought best
all around that Dick and Pauline be
married by the padre who has officiat-
ed at the mine. They will not make
the occasion one of merriment-Paul-
ines nerves have been too recently
and cruelty wounded for that, but it is
better that Dick may be recognized as
the controlling spirit of the mine.
They sit together in a room of AL
exanders house talking over the situa-
ton. Dick, 1t may be noticed, has
something on his mind; several times
he starts to speak and by accident is
interrupted; 1t does not take much to
interrupt him at present to all'appear-
ances.
Somehow the conversation takes a
retrospective turn, and Pauline, in a
reflective way, says:
ut has always appeared strange to
me that the Project of Paris, with all
the force at his command, was unable
to supply me with any information
concerning Beulah. He seemed conf
dent that he knew where Antoinette
Duval might be found, and gave me
every assurance of success, but it
wound up in a failure"

Her words are followed by a scene
of emotion as Pauline bends over
Juanita and, taking her in her arms,
kisses her fondly, her tears falling like
raindrops on the upturned olive face,
so faultless in it's rounded contour
the one so fair, the other so dark, and
yet sisters.

sobs.
The old senior has fallen back, and
Dick with one glance sees that he has
passed away.
Can nothing be done to save her?'
he says, feeling worse than ever be-
fore in his life.
"It is useless, know that have re-
ceived my death; little while and
shall pass away from you. Sister, let
me die in your arms"

last finds her, but oh, the terrible pain
of this meeting that is but the pre-
cursor of the sad parting.
Il have some knowledge of medi-
cine, let me see what can be DONE
says Colonel Bob, gravely.
The girl looks at him gratefully but
shakes her head.
1T would be useless; besides, when
l remove my hand from the wound,
life goes out. Give me few more
minutes to look into my sisters face;
oh. how strange it all seems-how hap
by | am to know that there is some
one who loves me, who will think OF
me-"
Pauline weeps more violently than
before-Dick winks very hard to keep
back the tears, while the valiant Col.
onel Bob, to hide his emotion, turns
end makes a rush toward the little
naturalist who has ventured to show
his head and shoulders from under the
table, but who vanishes within his
shell much after the manner of tor
toise drawing in head and feet in
times of danger, when he sees that
fierce terror of New Mexico descend
ing upon him.
AS Colonel Bob, having furtively
drawn the sleeve of his coat across his
eyes, turns again, he sees that all is
over; Dick is leading the almost faint
ing Pauline from the room, followed
by the hysterical Dora, while Antoin-
cite Duval bends over the lovely mo-
tionless form of the girl who gave her
own life to save that of the man she
loved.

Mrs. Richard Danvers.

Where the tumult of battle ragged
Iuch a short time before, fearful 81
lence reigns. Men go about with Ian
terms, searching for the wounded, who
are carried into one of the mine
- houses to receive attention from the
company's doctor, who most certainly
earns his good salary on this night at
least. The dead are removed at once
and quietly buried, and they are not
all on the side of the Mexicans, either.
1t has been sad. night for Ell Dorado,
but the lesson has been so severe that
it may be effectual.
= Dick has been deeply affected by the
sad scene he has just witnessed, but
when Dora has led her sobbing mis-.
outside to see about certain things
that should be done, and is just in
time to see a figure come sprawling
from the window, landing in a mud
hole with a splash, while the voice of
Colonel Bob calls:
Hope that will teach you a lesson,
you imp of London assurance reck-
on you'll fight shy of women folks in
general and the charming Dora in par
ticular after this" ..,..i..,sss..,

says Dick, whereat the New Mexican
sheriff laughs harshly.

and then begs his comrade to come
out and lend helping hand. A storm
is rapidly approaching, and before 1t
bursts upon the valley every wounded
man to be, found should be provided
with shelter, while the fallen must be
placed in their last,resting-place.
Thus the night passes away and
morning comes at, last. "A new day

this season aims to give the average
yield per acre of the principal farm
crops grown in Wisconsin, the quality
of the same-upon basis of 100, rep
resenting a high average for term
of years-and the average price of the
same on the home market. Yields
have been uniformly good, as general
ly favorable crop conditions have pre-.
vailed throughout the state during the
entire season. The yield of small
grains was diminished in the south
ern section during the early summer
and higher averages are received from
the central and northern sections. The
corn crop of the state is the best for
long term of years, the crop being
fully matured even in those parts of
the state where it has not been con-
sidered safe to attempt to cultivate It..
Our figures relative to this crop look
large, but we are satisfied that they
are not overdrawn. The potato crop
matured in fine form. There is little
complaint of blight or rot, though in
most locations considerable damage
was reported from grub worms. New
ertheless, the crop would have been
large and fine but for the severe frost
early in October. 1t is estimated that
hardly one-third of the crop has been
secured at that time, and from one
third to one-half of the tubers then
in the ground were destroyed. In adj
dition to the loss of crop the liability
to mix frosted potatoes with sound
ones has added immensely to the work
of preparing crop for market and has
unsettled prices for the time. Aside
from losses by frost, the crop remains
larger than that of last year and is of
better quality, and prices will doubt
less advance for clean, well assorted
