Did you ever notice how trouble or
discomfort grows when you talk of
It?
However little it may be in itself,
just put 1t In words, and observe to
what proportions it swells.
You may want to impress people
with the fact that you really have got
something to worry over. But what is
the use? II does not endear you to
others 1t is, on the contrary, much
more likely TO make your company less
agreeable even to those who love you.
And by much expatiatIng in 1t, you
grow to believe your trouble a great
deal more formidable than it actually
is.
If things really do worry and annoy
you, at least don't allow them to get
frmer hold by giving them voice. This
Is the time for your communication to
be yea" and may" ReSolutely close
your lips. Ignore the annoyances en-
.irely, so far as speech goes. And you
will presently be surprised to find them
melted away.

Then, if you are employed In an office
or factory, try to make it a point to
open the widows and thoroughly air
the room two or three times a day.
Stand straight, hold your shoulders
back, and give yourself chance to be
a healthy woman.
Don't be afraid of water. Drink
plenty of 1t, and take as many baths
as you can. Learn few physical Gull
ture exercises and practice them night
and morning says Woman's Life.
This may all sound rather unlnter-
estlng to you, but If you follow these
few suggestions you will be healthier,
happier and better-looking.

Smoke In Handling bees.

How differently men use or misuse
smoke when handling bees. Some men
even ask me if | ever smoke in the
entrance" As a rule, such men will
jar the hives in taking off the cover,
they pry or pull off the super with
snap, says an exchange. About this
time the bees, angry bees, begin pour
ing out at the entrance and from the
top of the hive and then the bee
keeper begins using the smoker; but
the bees are mad now. and no amount
Of smoke will pacify them.
The most important place to use
smoke is at the entrance, and 1t should
be used there as the first step in open
Ing the hive. Subdue the bees first,
then all the Earring will only make
their subsection the more complete. So
many times has some man cautioned
me about attempting to handle some
colony, saying that those bees were
perfect tigers and that | would be
stung to death. l always say: Give
me the smoker" / give them q good,
thorough smoking at the entrance be-
fore attempting to open the hive. |
then open the hive carefully, using
little smoke If there is any sign of
obstreperousness.
AS a rule I pass the ordeal without |
J sting, while the owner looks on with |
The whole secret lies in
the bees before opening the
hives. Smoke the bees first, and then
you can usually handle them in peace
md comfort.

dts of India, Taranath Tarka Vach-
aspati, the compiler of Sanskrit
dictionary, not only gave him the
sacred Brahmin thread, but adopted
him into his own gotra-a most
unusual honor. Aside from his work
as a scholar in India, Col. Olcott
nearly thirty years ago started an
educational movement in Ceylon for
the benefit of the Buddhists, which
caused the establishment of $50 schools
and three colleges, with 10000 pupils at
the present time. He also founded four
free schools for the pariah outcasts, at
tended last year by nearly 1000 pupils.
Col Olcott was born in Orange, n. j.,
in 1882 and was graduate of the Col
lege of the City Of New York. In 1853
be became the agricultural editor Of the
New York Tribune. During the war he
gave up his newspaper work and acted
in special capacities for both the Army
and Navy Departments, rising to the
rank Of Colonel. Just after the close
Of the war he was admitted to the bar
and in 1873 was commissioned by the
President to report on trade conditions
between this country aud India.
In 1875, when the theOsophical craze
had obtained good fOothold in this
country, Col. Olcott, who had long been
a student Of its teachings, was one of
he most earnest apostles of the move
nent here. With Nine. Blavatsky he
founded in New York the Theosophical
Society, which now has its headquar-
ers in India. He was the author Of

Elbow sleeve Is Passing.

There is every indication that the
reign Of the elbow sleeve is drawing to
a close. The sleeves on the new gowns
are short, but come well below the
elbow, and the close-ftting cuff of
tucked chiffon and lace lengthens them
still more. 1t has entirely lost any
smart effect, except in some elaborate
gown with which elbow sleeves are APP
propriate. For midsummer and In the
