BOYS. Oace ia a while some oue whose ap¬ ple trees have been clubbed,whose silk hat has been demolished by a snow- bail, or whose front gate has myster¬ iously disappeared overnight, writes sn indignant letter to the newspaper, expressing the opinion that boys of the present day behave much worse than those ot an earlier time. A sym¬ posium usually results, in which the boys get pretty hard "sage, with only an occasional word of cheer to keep them from becoming too much depress¬ ed over their own degeneracy. No one excuses the misdeeds of the youngsters; but the good people who are so much disturbed by what they regard as the increasing deplorable state of morals and conduct amoog the boys are merely growmr old. Whatever their years may bo, they are forgetting what the eternal boy is what he was in their youth, what he always will be. A harum-scarum, mis¬ chievous, thoughtless creature, ever ready to harass and despoil his crab¬ bed and suspicious elders, he is yet singularly amenable to goodnatured and generous treatment. Those who remember their own juve¬ nile peccadillos will not readily be¬ lieve that the boys of to-day can con¬ ceive or execute much more in the way of mischief. Have melon patches and fruit trees ever been safe from levy? Is the game of tick-tack of recent inventions"-' Let us not forget that Tom Sawyer and his mates lived more than a generation ago. It may be that less outward deference and courtesy is shown by the rising generation to its elders than'used to be Uie case. If that is so, it is not much the boyi as their parents who are at fault. To mind and to speak respect¬ ful! v were Ullage that children used to l>e taught pretty generally. It would be a pity if parents should grow too lazy or too forgetlull of the uses of discipline to exact these simple virtues from their offspring. .'lt cured me," or "It saved the life of my child." are the expressions you ir every day about Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Rem¬ edy.

The Minnesota Experiment Station has founu that treatment for Ameri¬ can Foul Brood ls best done when honey is abundant, and in the evening. Ilemove diseased comb, and shake the bees into their own hive, having first placed in the hive clean frames wlih foundation starters. Let them build comb for four days. On the sraalag of the fourth day take out the eombi which have been started, and whh li may be partly tilled with diseased honey, shake the bees on to new- frames with foundation starters, de¬ stroying the comb aud honey Which they first made before other bees have access to it. This, the officials of the station state, should effect a cure. One's hands should be thoroughly Washed, aud the tools used In this work carefully cleaned with bolling water or alcohol to prevent contami¬ nating another colony. The hires should also be disinfected previous to inserting the second set of frame- with starters preferably by placing straw in same and burning, ettghtly charring the Interior. The alighting board and entrance should be disin fected In the same way. All Infected honey and comb should be destroy, ii by burning, at night, to prevent rob bing and consequent spread of dis ease. If a bee-keeper bears in mind the In¬ fectious character of this disease, pre¬ cautions to be observed in handling diseased colonies will naturally .sug¬ gest themselves to him. He should also bear in mind that where a colony is dwindling from the effect of Peso] Brood, it should be carefully guard.kl against being robbed, sim ie robbing may be the most prolific cause of spreading the disease. Winter Pastages. Bees often starve In the midst of plenty. They winter In lots called "seatns" between the combs, and may be seen packed like slates upon a house roof, the top row removing the food from the cells above them to feed themselves, and by passing it down, those below. While the weather re¬ mains mild the bees are able to move about from comb to comb in search of food, or with the object of bringing to the center combs food stored in the outer frames; but this activity oeassi as soon as really cold weather sets in and they then pack themselves close together for mutual warmth. Then, as the food around them ls consumed, they die simply on account of the cold air by which they are surrounded; and they cannot pass around or under the frames to a probable abundant supply close by. Though they are prevented going around or under the frames a provision may be made allow- lng them to pass over the topbar In the warmest part of the hive. HUS ie done by giving what are known as "winter passages." The old method now almost discarded, was to cut a hole through the comb In each frame near the top bar. A more effective passage could hardly be devised, but apart from spoiling the combs it is a tiresome and troublesome operation, and is therefore not reconmeaded. A simple plau ls to lay across the top- bars four pieces of wood half an inch square and about six inches long, half Inch apart. If the quilts are then laid evenly across, effective pssssajcM Un the bees will be provided. Then again a cake of candy laid upon the frame s when closing up the hives in October will be equally satisfactory, for pas¬ sages will be fonaed se the candy is consumed over the bars.

Suddenly there came a lusty call for "Symonds!" and tba ruddy-cheeked young fellow sprang to obey the sum¬ mons, tossing aside the crumpled paper that had held his impromptu meal. A draught of wind drew it into the aisle and to th* feet of the waiting man. It was an old newspaper and its title, The Weekly Clarion, lay up¬ permost and blackly conspicuous, as if to attract his attention. But, ab¬ sorbed in thought he idly watched its fluttering pages some minutes before the staring letters Impressed them¬ selves on his inner consciousness. Th. n, stooping, he read the name of the town printed beneath the title and his heart gave a quick throb of home¬ sick louging.lt waa that of his boy¬ hood's home. Boarding a car he soon reached his office. He spread the paper out on his desk and scanned the columns with the eagerness of a boy, laughing from sheer happiness whenever a familiar name met his eye. But as he turned the paper over his face sobered, for here was bad news. The old Meredith farm "and the appurtenances thereof" (as the rural reporter gave lt) was go¬ ing to be sold for taxes at public auc¬ tion! Sold for taxes! What a pitiful tragedy of grind'ng poverty those three short words re¬ vealed to the astute mind of Peter Vanhuysen. How plainly they told him that his little schoolmate, Mildred Meredith, was In want; that the sweet, brown-eyed girl who In the old days use' to call him "Peter the Great". because she said he was so fearless and strong.was about to become homeless, and as friendliness as he had been in his first years of indigence and discouragement before his feet had found the firm ground of success. Why, lt was horrible -lt must not be! He would buy tbe place himself and make her accept lt. Surely she could not refuse when he told her what pleasure it would give him to lend a helping hand to almost the only friend he had in the world. He shut his deek with a bang, strug¬ gled Into his coat while giving his gaping office boy a rather Incoherent explanation in regard to this unex¬ pected call out of town, dashed down¬ stairs, hailed a taxicab aud was whirled away to tbe statirm, where he boarded the tirst outgoing tiain for Elmville. It was dark when he got off at the lonely station, and still darker in the deserted street leading to the weath¬ er beaten house where old Billy Fer¬ guson still dispensed cheer to the few who craved the hospitality of his roof. The morning broke gray and sodden .the sort of day that tums a country town into a veritable valley of humili¬ ation to the city dweller and as Peter plodded through the slushy snow to¬ ward the Meredith farm he almost re¬ gretted the quixotic idea that had brought him back to the place where ghosts of the past stalked forth to greet him at each fork of the road. But when he saw how small was the gathering of possible purchasers and how scattered the bids he was glad he was there. He swung Into the game with the same determination to make things "go" that he had always found to be such a valuable asset in his busi¬ ness career, and by a word here, a hint there, soon had the bidding brisk, the competition keen. Then, when he had "run the price up on himself," he quietly outbid his boldest competitor and became the owner of the rambling gray house and ita contents. Stand¬ ing in the door he watched the motley array of vehicles creak out of sight be¬ hind the wall of mist rising from the sloppy road then turned to inspect the silent rooms. There was the well room, where he and Mildred used to lean over the curb to watch their own exaggerated, reflections winking back at them from the black water in the well's cavern¬ ous depths; and there the kitchen, where he could almost smell tke hot "nut cakes" with which Mother Mere¬ dith used to regale him; and., lust be¬ yond, the living room, with Grandpa Meredith's bedroom openiag out of it. And last, across the tittle square entry, was the "best" room. He gave the door a push. It opened unexpect¬ edly from within, an* there stood a woman gazing at him with wide, frightened eyes. It was Mildred, but so changed from the light-hearted girl he remembered, that for a moment he did not know her. But she recognized him at onoe, and with a low cry of joy placed botii slender hands In his. And as they stood with clasp****" hands and questioning eyes, Peter Van huyBen knew that lt was not phil¬ anthropy which had brought him to Elmville, but lover-love quiescent tilt suddenly quickened into life by the dire need of ita object. And so whet* (with, a woman's desire to delay the question she yet longs to hear; Mil¬ dred asked him what he waa going to* do with his new possessions) Peter replied decisively: "1 am going to give the farm to my wife. But the appurtenance*.at least, one of them.I am going to keep for my very own so long life shall last." And the blushing "appurtenance" standing before him smiled a sweet approval of his wise decision..MARY L0UI8H: BUZZELL.

BOYS.Oace ia a while some oue whose ap¬

ple trees have been clubbed,whose silkhat has been demolished by a snow-

bail, or whose front gate has myster¬iously disappeared overnight, writes

sn indignant letter to the newspaper,expressing the opinion that boys of

the present day behave much worse

than those ot an earlier time. A sym¬

posium usually results, in which the

boys get pretty hard "sage, with onlyan occasional word of cheer to keepthem from becoming too much depress¬ed over their own degeneracy.No one excuses the misdeeds of the

youngsters; but the good people who

are so much disturbed by what theyregard as the increasing deplorablestate of morals and conduct amoog

the boys are merely growmr old.Whatever their years may bo, theyare forgetting what the eternal boy is

what he was in their youth, what he

always will be. A harum-scarum, mis¬

chievous, thoughtless creature, ever

ready to harass and despoil his crab¬bed and suspicious elders, he is yetsingularly amenable to goodnaturedand generous treatment.Those who remember their own juve¬nile peccadillos will not readily be¬

lieve that the boys of to-day can con¬

ceive or execute much more in the

way of mischief. Have melon patchesand fruit trees ever been safe from

levy? Is the game of tick-tack ofrecent inventions"-' Let us not forgetthat Tom Sawyer and his mates livedmore than a generation ago.

It may be that less outward deference

and courtesy is shown by the risinggeneration to its elders than'used to be

Uie case. If that is so, it is not muchthe boyi as their parents who are at

fault. To mind and to speak respect¬ful! v were Ullage that children usedto l>e taught pretty generally. It would

be a pity if parents should grow too

lazy or too forgetlull of the uses of

discipline to exact these simple virtues

from their offspring.

Best Done When Honey ls AbundantIn the Evening.

The Minnesota Experiment Stationhas founu that treatment for Ameri¬can Foul Brood ls best done when

honey is abundant, and in the evening.Ilemove diseased comb, and shake thebees into their own hive, having first

placed in the hive clean frames wlih

foundation starters. Let them buildcomb for four days. On the sraalagof the fourth day take out the eombiwhich have been started, and whh li

may be partly tilled with diseasedhoney, shake the bees on to new-

frames with foundation starters, de¬stroying the comb aud honey Whichthey first made before other bees haveaccess to it. This, the officials of thestation state, should effect a cure.

One's hands should be thoroughlyWashed, aud the tools used In this

work carefully cleaned with bollingwater or alcohol to prevent contami¬nating another colony. The hiresshould also be disinfected previous to

inserting the second set of frame-with starters preferably by placingstraw in same and burning, ettghtlycharring the Interior. The alightingboard and entrance should be disinfected In the same way. All Infectedhoney and comb should be destroy, ii

by burning, at night, to prevent robbing and consequent spread of disease.

If a bee-keeper bears in mind the In¬fectious character of this disease, pre¬cautions to be observed in handlingdiseased colonies will naturally .sug¬

gest themselves to him. He shouldalso bear in mind that where a colonyis dwindling from the effect of Peso]Brood, it should be carefully guard.klagainst being robbed, simie robbingmay be the most prolific cause of

spreading the disease.

Winter Pastages.Bees often starve In the midst of

plenty. They winter In lots called"seatns" between the combs, and maybe seen packed like slates upon a

house roof, the top row removing thefood from the cells above them to feedthemselves, and by passing it down,those below. While the weather re¬

mains mild the bees are able to move

about from comb to comb in search of

food, or with the object of bringingto the center combs food stored in theouter frames; but this activity oeassias soon as really cold weather sets inand they then pack themselves close

together for mutual warmth. Then,as the food around them ls consumed,they die simply on account of the coldair by which they are surrounded;and they cannot pass around or underthe frames to a probable abundantsupply close by. Though they are

prevented going around or under theframes a provision may be made allow-lng them to pass over the topbar Inthe warmest part of the hive. HUS ie

done by giving what are known as

"winter passages." The old methodnow almost discarded, was to cut a

hole through the comb In each framenear the top bar. A more effectivepassage could hardly be devised, butapart from spoiling the combs it is a

tiresome and troublesome operation,and is therefore not reconmeaded. Asimple plau ls to lay across the top-bars four pieces of wood half an inchsquare and about six inches long, halfInch apart. If the quilts are then laidevenly across, effective pssssajcM Un

the bees will be provided. Then againa cake of candy laid upon the frame s

when closing up the hives in Octoberwill be equally satisfactory, for pas¬

sages will be fonaed se the candy isconsumed over the bars.

"APPURTENAN¬CES THEREOF.-"

OE JK a8While wattins for the man to be at

liberty whom he had come to see,

Peter Vanhuyaen strolled down to thelower end of the market where,(screened from view by empty boxes,

a teamster was snatching a hastylunch.

Suddenly there came a lusty call for"Symonds!" and tba ruddy-cheekedyoung fellow sprang to obey the sum¬

mons, tossing aside the crumpledpaper that had held his impromptumeal. A draught of wind drew it intothe aisle and to th* feet of the waitingman. It was an old newspaper andits title, The Weekly Clarion, lay up¬

permost and blackly conspicuous, as

if to attract his attention. But, ab¬sorbed in thought he idly watched its

fluttering pages some minutes beforethe staring letters Impressed them¬selves on his inner consciousness.Th. n, stooping, he read the name ofthe town printed beneath the title andhis heart gave a quick throb of home¬sick louging.lt waa that of his boy¬hood's home.

Boarding a car he soon reached hisoffice. He spread the paper out on hisdesk and scanned the columns with

the eagerness of a boy, laughing fromsheer happiness whenever a familiarname met his eye. But as he turnedthe paper over his face sobered, forhere was bad news. The old Meredithfarm "and the appurtenances thereof"(as the rural reporter gave lt) was go¬

ing to be sold for taxes at public auc¬

tion!Sold for taxes!What a pitiful tragedy of grind'ng

poverty those three short words re¬

vealed to the astute mind of PeterVanhuysen. How plainly they toldhim that his little schoolmate, MildredMeredith, was In want; that the sweet,brown-eyed girl who In the old daysuse' to call him "Peter the Great".because she said he was so fearlessand strong.was about to becomehomeless, and as friendliness as he

had been in his first years of indigenceand discouragement before his feethad found the firm ground of success.

Why, lt was horrible -lt must notbe! He would buy tbe place himselfand make her accept lt. Surely shecould not refuse when he told herwhat pleasure it would give him to

lend a helping hand to almost the onlyfriend he had in the world.He shut his deek with a bang, strug¬

gled Into his coat while giving his

gaping office boy a rather Incoherentexplanation in regard to this unex¬

pected call out of town, dashed down¬stairs, hailed a taxicab aud was

whirled away to tbe statirm, wherehe boarded the tirst outgoing tiain

for Elmville.It was dark when he got off at the

lonely station, and still darker in thedeserted street leading to the weath¬er beaten house where old Billy Fer¬guson still dispensed cheer to the fewwho craved the hospitality of his roof.The morning broke gray and sodden.the sort of day that tums a countrytown into a veritable valley of humili¬ation to the city dweller and as Peterplodded through the slushy snow to¬ward the Meredith farm he almost re¬

gretted the quixotic idea that hadbrought him back to the place whereghosts of the past stalked forth to

greet him at each fork of the road.But when he saw how small was thegathering of possible purchasers andhow scattered the bids he was gladhe was there. He swung Into the gamewith the same determination to make

things "go" that he had always foundto be such a valuable asset in his busi¬ness career, and by a word here, a

hint there, soon had the bidding brisk,the competition keen. Then, when hehad "run the price up on himself," hequietly outbid his boldest competitorand became the owner of the ramblinggray house and ita contents. Stand¬ing in the door he watched the motleyarray of vehicles creak out of sight be¬hind the wall of mist rising from thesloppy road then turned to inspectthe silent rooms.

There was the well room, where heand Mildred used to lean over thecurb to watch their own exaggerated,reflections winking back at them fromthe black water in the well's cavern¬

ous depths; and there the kitchen,where he could almost smell tke hot"nut cakes" with which Mother Mere¬dith used to regale him; and., lust be¬

yond, the living room, with GrandpaMeredith's bedroom openiag out ofit. And last, across the tittle squareentry, was the "best" room. He gavethe door a push. It opened unexpect¬edly from within, an* there stood a

woman gazing at him with wide,frightened eyes.

It was Mildred, but so changed fromthe light-hearted girl he remembered,that for a moment he did not knowher. But she recognized him at onoe,and with a low cry of joy placed botiislender hands In his.And as they stood with clasp****"

hands and questioning eyes, PeterVan huyBen knew that lt was not phil¬anthropy which had brought him to

Elmville, but lover-love quiescent tiltsuddenly quickened into life by thedire need of ita object. And so whet*

(with, a woman's desire to delay thequestion she yet longs to hear; Mil¬dred asked him what he waa going to*do with his new possessions) Peterreplied decisively:

"1 am going to give the farm to mywife. But the appurtenance*.at least,one of them.I am going to keep formy very own so long life shall last."And the blushing "appurtenance"

standing before him smiled a sweet

approval of his wise decision..MARYL0UI8H: BUZZELL.
