Honey Bee’s Restless Life,
It Begins Work When Only Three Days 0ld and Its
Life Ends After Forty-Five.
G. W. Reynolds, of Los Angeles, Cal.,
one of the oldest traveling men in the
United States, is 71 years of age. Mr.
Reynolds has a ranch, of which he enjoys
telling even more than he does of the ex-
periences through which he has passed
during his half century upon the road.
The ranch is near San Diego, Cal. The
chief product is honey. This product is
gained from two apiaries, which Mr. Rey-
nolds visits every time his business permits
him to go to Southern California, states
the Denver Republican.
‘In my apiaries, which are cared for by
my son,’’ «aid he, ‘‘there are 140 stands of
bees. The honey season lasts from April
to July. This season my bees yielded 40,-
000 pounds of honey, which sells in that
country in bulk lots at four cents a pound.
Two of the hives gave over 500 pounds
each. For ten years I have been interest-
ed in bees in a small way, and I take
greater interest in them every year. A
hive or stand of bees is worth $250. In it
are the queen, the drones and the workers,
a total population of from 20,000 to 25’'000
bees.
‘“This very good sized colony,’’ he con-
tinued, ‘‘resides ir a hive or wooden box.
In the hive are a dozen frames 13x7 inches.
In these the bees make and deposit the
honey, a foundation of wax having been
first placed in each frame by the beekeeper,
so that the bees may have something to
build upon. The honey is taken out of
the frames every other week during the
honey season. While doing so there is
little need of protecting the hands. The
bees seem to be most inclined to sting on
the face. So, as a precaution the man
who is removing the honey from the hives
wears a straw hat, from which is hung a
silk veil, like they have to do up in the
Klondike country to ward off the summer
mosquitoes.
‘“The queen is an ahsolute monarch
within her dominions. She is the undis-
puted boss of the job, An ordinary bee
lives during the working season only 45
days. Young ones are being hatched out
all the time. A bee goes to work at the
tender age of three days, and hustles like
a veteran 42 days. Then it is just natur-
ally all tired out, I suppose, for it dies.
The queen lives longer, and when a young
queen comes into existence in the hive she
drives the-old queen out. . Her .lojal.sub-
jects follow her in her banishment, and
that is what makes the swarm.
‘In Southern California the bees make
water-white honey ‘when the black sage is
in blossom. When the whité sage is flow-
ering the honey has an amber tinge. In
winter the bees make no honey. Seventy-
five carloads of the article are shipped out
of San Diego county in good years.”
Absentee Landlordism.
Harper's Weekly is recognized as one of
the most conservative of American journals.
It is never knowingly radical. When,
therefore, it endorses indirectly an econom-
ic doctrine of the most radical character,
everyone will rejoice at the aid to progress,
though inadvertently given.
In discussing the famine in India, in a
late issue Harper's Weekly says:
“The cause, plainly stated, for the terrible
condition of the Indian people is absentee
landlordism, with its consequent drain of
the resources of the country to maintain a
foreign domination. As an instance, taking
the financial year 1889-90, the net amount ot
the land revenues of India was $97,500,000,
while the amonnt expended through the
Indian office in London, in England only, on
account of India was $117,250,000. These
figures are official. From this it will be seen
that not only was the whole land rent of
India taken to be spent in England, but over
$2,000,000 more that had to be taken from
other sources. This may make it understood
how it is that the India people are insuffi-
ciently fed and clothed, and consequently
short-lived.”
Absentee landlordism is the curse of Ire-
land also. - Tt-is what ails the West and
South in this country.
If absentee landlordism is condemned,
it can only be done on the ground that the
rent of a land-belongs to the people of the
land, the people who create the rent by
their presence. From the condemnation of
absentee landlordism to the condemnation
of any and all landlordism is a logical and
necessary step. Is Harper's Weekly pre-
pared to make it?
That such a journal should give an ex-
planation of the Indian famine which by
.| nplication concedes the wrongfulness of
laud monopoly shows the wonderful spread
of reform ideas and proves the vital im-
portance of the land question.
Owns Fabulous Wealth.
Senora de Cousino is the Richest Woman in the World.
The richest woman in the world is said
to be the Senora de Cousino, of Chili and
Peru, who is.a widow on the other side of
50. Her wealth sounds like that of the
princesses of the fairy tales beloved of our
childhood, as report states that the senora
owns three palaces, a fleet of ships, silver
mines in Chile, vineyards and a stock farm
near Santiago, potteries which supply all
South America with earthenware, coal
mines of immense value, all the land,
houses and public works at Lota and near-
ly all the copper mines in Chile and Peru,
and she is supposed to supply three-fourths
of Europe with copper. Her immense
wealth is doubtless largely owing to her
shrewdness, as, though she inherited the
greater part cf it, she has doubled the orig-
inal amount f her inheritance. The Sen-
ora de Cousino is tall, dark and handsome,
so it is within the bounds of probability
that she remains a widow from choice.
Her annoal income is no less than $8,000,-
000.
A Parson’s Story.
An itinerant parson tells that way out
‘Yin the backwoods’ he came, one day, to
a settler’s house,” and entered to have a
talk with its inmates. The old woman of
the house became much interested in the
preacher’s discourse, and requested that he
conduct family worship. She also insisted:
upon hunting up her family Bible, to be
used upon the occasion. .
She left the room to look up the Bible,
but seemed to have hard work finding it.
The minutes passed, and she came not.
The preacher had time to grow impatient
before the old woman reappeared with a
few tattered leaves in her hand.
She handed them over with an apologet-
icair. “I’m awful sorry,’”’ parson, she
explained, ‘‘but the fact is I didn’t know
I was so near out of Bibles !"'—-Harper’s

An Improved Governor.
Preserves Uniform Speed Under
Loads and Changing Pressures.
Widely Varying
Recent developments in conneciion
with electric lighting in'office buildings
insist on such exacting service as to al-
low only the minutest variation of
speed under widely varying loads and
changing pressures. Not only must the
speed be uniform, but it must remain
so during the period of tke change. To
meet these new and rigid requirements
a governor has been devised which in
every way fulfills the demands referred
to, with the additional beauty of ex-
treme simplicity. This governor, which
is an adaptation of the Rites governor
system, not only regulates to the very
highest degree of perfection but with

an extraordinary rapid adjustment and |
without the slightest instability or surg- |
ing.
Technically stated the centrifugal
element upon which the degree of the
refinement of regulation of all governors
depends is combined with an inertia ele-
ment relatively so great that instant
and extreme changes of load are imme-
diately provided for without waiting
for the otherwise necessary manifesta-
tion of centrifugal force. The entire
governor consists of but a single moving
piece, suspended upon one pivotal
point, thereby reducing the friction to
a minimum, and with no joints to in-
terfere with the best action of the gov-
ernor. The suspension pin or pivotal
point ismade of hardened crucible steel.
The suspension pin eye is lined with
phosphor bronze, and the little lubrica-
tion that is required is accomplished by
sion grease cup, into a number of re-
cesses arranged around the bore of the
bushings.
A Commercial Laboratory.
There has been established at the
Philadelphia Commercial museums an
important and valuable acquisition to
the already large collection of valuable
exhibits. This will be the addition of
a laboratory of tests and technology as
an adjunct to the scientific department.
It will not be an exhibit in the ordinary
sense of the term, but a department
that will have for its object the exami-
nation and analysis of raw and manu-
factured products which may be sent to
it from any of the countries already rep-
resented in its collections or from pri-
vate individuals who wish to determine,
through chemical and other tests, the
commercial value of the materials pre-
sented. The services of this important
department will be at the disposal of
any person or firm desiring tests or an-
alysis, providing they comply with the
requirements of the department relative
to the manner of sending samples and
more particularly to the injunction
stated, that no certificate given shall be
used in any way for advertising pur-
poses.—American Machinist. :
To Revolutionize Microscopy.
Professor Elmer Gates of Washington
says he has'worked out a process by
which objects can be magnified to a size
300 times greater than by any of the
he claims, will revolutionize microscopy
and will advance science to a point
hitherto undreamed of. His discovery,
he says, will be of special value in bac-
teriology and the study of the cellular
tissues. The professor declares that he
has succeeded where all other scientists
have failed—in discovering a way by
which the magnified image projected on
a lens can be magnified by a second as
if it were the original object. To do
this has been the aim of scientific pho-
tographers and microscopists for many
years. Professor Gates does not divulge
the details of his invention.—Indian-
apolis Journal. :
Electrical Safe Breaking.
In recent experiments an arc of 40 to
50 volts, with a current of 800 to 500
amperes, is said to have penetrated in
three to ten minutes safe walls from
8 to 6 inches thick. A rough steel
ingot, perhaps 6 by 7 by 10 inches, was
penetrated with a diagonal, jagged hole
from 134 to 8% inches in diameter, the
thickness of metal pierced being about
8 or 9 inches. Who will now warrant a
burglar proof safe?
Scraps of Science.
Men on an average weigh 20 pounds

Weak and inflamed eyes are relieved
by bathing them in salt water.
Severe ivy poisoning is quickly re-

Wine of colchicum root relieves ob-
stinate sciatica in five to ten minim
doses three times daily.
Boiled potatoes are much slower to
digest than roasted or baked, the for-
mer requiring 81 hours and the latter
from 2 to 2%.
In a case of twins their photographs
and measurements were closely alike,
but the minutie of their finger prints
were quite different.
The lake of Uramia, in Persia, con-

The notion that you could detect the
existence and position of a stream of
water flowing underground at a depth of
109 feet or more by the peculiar behav-
ior of a hazel twig held in your fingers
has been looked upon in modern times
as a ridiculous superstition. Scientific
people, and particularly the geologists,
have discredited all stories of this sort
s0 long and so decidedly that other folk
have been ashamed to evince faith in
them.
Now, however, a professor of physics
in the Royal College of Science For Ire-
land, approaching the subject with a
distinct prejudice antagonistic to the
theory, has been led to change his mind
by an extended investigation. Hisname
is W. F. Barrett, and the subtitle of the
treatise in which is embodied the result
is *‘A scientific and historical research
as to the existence and practical value
of a peculiar human faculty, unrecog-
nized by science, locally known as
dowsing. ”’
The first great step in this work was
| to collect all available narratives in re-
| gard to the use of the divining rod.
In time Professor Barrett was con-
| fronted with an amazing quantity of
evidence. Scores, if not hundreds, of
these tales are given in his treatise.
Here are three samples: A sanitarium
was to be built on high ground in Som-
ersetshire, England. The site was ap-
parently a dry one. Three professional
‘‘dowsers’” were sent for separately,
each unknown to the others and each
working under the conviction that he
alone was employed. All three pointed
to the same spot. A well was sunk there
and abundant water was found. Wil-
liam Ward Spink, a justice in British
Columbia, walked about over his
grounds for an hour, blindfolded and
carrying a divining rod in his fingers.
Every time the wand dipped an attend-
ant drove a peg into the earth. In many
cases the justice would pass over a spot
where the rod had moved before, and it
would invariably give the same sign
again. He dug wells at only two of the
places indicated, but got water in both.
This man declared that if he stood over
a garden hose with a divining rod in
his fingers he could tell by its conduct
when the water was turned on and off.
At Newport, Monmouthshire, a well
was sunk to a depth of 51 feet without
success. Local experts, noting the char-
acter of the soil, then pronounced the
quest hopeless. A Cornishman who
was present advocated a trial of the di-
vining rod, with which his boy, aged
11, bad had some successful experience.
The lad was sent for. In his hands the
twig gave distinct signs. But the peo-
ple who would have to pay for the ex-
cavation were skeptical and hesitated.
The Cornishman offered to take the con-
tract himself and stipulated that he
would demand no pay if no water was
found. The job proceeded on that basis.
At a depth of 48 feet the diggers struck
a gushing vein and were obliged to flee
for their lives.
The typical divining rod is shaped
somewhat like a wishbone and is about
a foot long. The tip of one prong is held
in each hand, and the hands are kept
eight or ten inches apart. The elbows
are usually in contact with one’s sides,
and the forearms extend straight for-
ward horizontally. The twig itself
stands almost vertically in front of the
dowser’s chest. In the majority of cases
reported the upper part of the rod sway-
ed toward the operator’s body, but in a
few instances it moved in the other di-
rection—namely, downward toward the
earth. The violence of the movement
seemed to vary greatly. If the twig was
so held that it could move freely, it
would perhaps revolve on an imaginary
axis extending from one hand to the
other. It is related that on some occa-
sions, when the twig could not revolve,
it would be badly twisted and bent and
would even be broken. Much variety is
discernible in the accounts, both as to
the way of grasping the rod and the
latter’s behavior. :
Although Professor Barrett doesn’t
attempt fully to explain these phenome-
na, he has clear convictions on one
point. ' He is confident that it is the op-
erator, not the rod, that discovers the
water. The movement is not due in
genuine cases, he believes, to any at-
traction or repulsion exerted upon the
twig (or the substitute therefor) by the
hidden stream, but to muscular action
exerted unconsciously in response to
some inward inspiration. Some psychol-
ogists have been accustomed of late
years to assign many human sensibili-
ties and activities to a part of the spir-
itual nature that lies below the level of
consciousness and which they call the
‘‘subconscious self.”’ ‘‘Subliminal’’ is
another common name for it. Professor
Barrett is inclined to think it possible
that the faculty which some people
seem to possess of finding water and
metals in the manner described resides
down in the ‘‘subliminal,’’ but further
investigation is unecessary, he admits,
to establish that theory.—New York
Tribune.
Twinkling of the Stars.
A discovery of much interest to as-
tronomers has been made by Dr. L. L.
J. See, who is in charge of Lowell ob-
servatory at Flagstaff, A. T. The cause
of the twinkling of the stars has always
been a mystery, none of the theories ad-
vanced having stood the test of thor-
ough investigation. Dr. See has found
the cause to be the presence in the at-
mosphere of innumerable little air cur-
rents or waves, which dart through the
air and canse a break in the light from
the star. The result is that to a behold-
er on the earth the star has the familiar
appearance of twinkling. These little
air currents can be distinguished
through the 24 inch telescope very
plainly on nights when this twinkling
is observed most by removing the eye-
piece of the instrument.
or liver. The dry tongue occurs most fre-
quently in fever and indicates a nervous
prostration or depression. A white tongue
is diagnostic simply of the feverish condi-
tion, with perhaps a sour stomach. When
it is most discolored and yellowish
brown, it shows disordered diges-
tion. Dry and brown indicate a
low state of the system, possibly
typhoid. When the tongue is dry and red
and smooth. look out for inflammation.
gastric or intestinal. When the papilae on.
the end of the tongue are raised and very
red, it is called a strawberry tongue, and
that means scarlet fever. Sharp pointed
red tongues will hint of brain irritation or
inflammation, and a yellow coating in-
dicates liver derangement. When so much
can be gained from an examination of the
tongue, how important it is that the young-
est child shold be taught to put it out so
that it can be visible to the uttermost point
in the throat.
OLD PEOPLE.—OId people who require
medicine to regulate the bowels and kid-
neys will find the true remedy in Electric
Bitters. This medicine does not stimulate
and contains no whiskey nor other intoxi-
cant, but acts as a tonic and alterative. It
acts mildly on the stomach and bowels, add-
ing strength and giving tone to the or-
gans, thereby aiding Nature in the perfor-
mance of the functions. Electric Bitters is
an excellent.appetizer and aids digestion.
Old People find it just exactly what they
need. Price fifty cents and $1.00 per bot-
tle at F. Potts Green’s Drug Store.
—— "The only way to protect the birds
is to teach the children to know and
love them. All efforts thus far to induce
women to give up the use of plumage for
their personal adornment have failed, but
if they had any real love for birds they
could not wear their stuffed skins on their
bonnets,’
——Indigestive poisons are the bane of
the dyspeptic’s life. When sick. see if
your sickness is caused by indigestive
poisons. If so take Shaker Digestive Cor-
dial. This is the only certain way of being
permanently cured, because it is the only
way that gets rid of the poisons. You

W HAT IS CATARRH?
A DANGEROUS DISEASE AFFECTING
THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE.
Catarrh is an inflammation of the mucous mem-
branes and may affect the head, throat, stomach,
bowels or bladder. But catarrh in the head is
most common, often coming on so gradually that
It has'a firm hold before the nature of the trouble
is suspected. Catarrh is caused by a cold or sue-
cession of colds, combined with impure blood.
When chronic it is liable to develop into consump-
tion. It is therefore .
VERY DANGEROUS.
The one true remedy for catarrh is Hood's Sarsa-
parilla, because, by thoroughly purifying the blood
Hood's Sarsaparilla strikes at the root of the troub-
le and removes the scrofulous taints which cause
in. It reaches the delicate passages of the mu-
cous membrane, soothes and rebuilds the tissues,
giving them a tendency to health and ultimately

-““I had catarrh and sick headache and my face
was one mass of pimples. I began to take Hood's
Sirsaparilla and I have been greatly benefited
by it. Ihave now no more headache or catarrh,
and the pimples are nearly all gone from my face.”
