Masketable Hosbt. —Of late year*, Ihc tendency amon^ bee-keepers nas been to neglect comb-honey, and work almost exclusively for extracted, The latter is more rapidly secured, and it requires less skill to succeed in obtaining a good return in extracted honey. The experience of practical men, however, r ay well induce bee keepers to consider t ? advisability of working for comb-honey. This always if properly secured, finds ready sale at the highest prices. One man, in Illinois, with 174 colonies by the spring count and 206 in the fall, se cured over 16;000 pounds of eoney, which •old for $3,000. At present, the market demands honey In sections. Even the so called prize sec tion, which is Si, by inches, is found too large, and our wide-swake apiarists have used generally the one-pound section which is 4J inches square. This season, the experience in the Boeton and Chicago markets shows that even a smaller—a half pound section—is to take the lead. It will be advisable for bee-keepers to arrange to secure this year’s honey, in part, at least, in sections of this smaller size. Tin or wooden separators, which have been used between the sections to secure straight combs, that oould be aMpped ea sily, are expensive. Borne of our best apiarists find their use unnecessary. The secret of this seems to rest with the depth of the section. The usual depth bra been two inches. By making the sections from 11 to 1} inch deep, so that the comb shall not be so thick, the even combs are secured without separators, especially if use is made of comb foundation. in arranging to change the form of sec tions, ig any thus decide, let it be remem bered that, the square form is not essential. Even the prize section is not square. Many contend tnat a rectangular secuon, longer up and down, is Worked in lHitter by the bees, and more quickly capped over, and filled to the edge,than is one that is square, it is worth while to think of this as we plan lor the next harvest. It is is hardly necessary to say that sections cannot be too neat and clean. Hot Beds and Cold Frames.—The site for a hot bed or cold frame should be on sandy or gravelly, or well drained soil, convenient to water, well protected from north and north-west winds, not only free from overhanging trees and the shade of houses, but open to the sun from its rising to its setting. Unless the aspect of the bed be a point or two eastward of the south, the plants crowing at the eastern end will be dwindled by the shade of he frame. The site having been chosen, the manure is placed either on the surface, or in an excavation about six inches deep, in the shape of a solid parallelogram, extend ing m length and breadth one foot beyond the dimensions of the frame to be placed upon it. The frame should be as wide as the length of the sash, and its length will be determined by the number of sashes. ISo bed should be constructed,if avoidable for less than four •‘lights,” and the longer it is, the more heat will be developed, and the more in amount will be retained. For a cold frame, the soil should be elevated six incaes above the general level and finely graded up and raxed. Glass is the propei A.aterlal for sash, and the cheapest in the end. Frames covered with cotton cloth may be used as a substitute, however. To render the cloth more tran- sulent, the following ingredients may be used; one quart pale linseed oil, four oun ces resin, and one ounce sugar of lead.The sugar of lead shall be ground with a little of the oil, then the remainder of the oil and resin should be added, and the var nish applied with a wide brush while warm. The following directions apply to the cu'd frame alone: According to the nature and size of the seed, and the character of the soil, the seeds are to be sown from a quarter of an inch to an inch deep, in urills thiee or tour niches apart across the bed, and more thinly at the back and front, than near the middle of the bed. Each variety should be sown in separate cold frames, or, when not practicable,only such should be sown together as require about tbe same degree of heat to germinate and particularly such as demand tbe same management and protection, until the plants are removed. How to Stop a Runaway Horse.—Sev eral yeata ago I attended a lecture given by Uarey, tbe celebrated horse-trainer, in the course of which he claimed that any runaway horse could be controlled with a knowledge of the proper treatment, and what 1 learned from him has served me on more than one occasion during the many years I have driven around New York. Rareys directions were as follows: First, to know that the harness is all right, and that the bit and lines are ot proper strength never to drive with a slack rein.and always to keep the feet untramu.eled, ready for any emergency; second, as soon as you find that tbe horse is ruuning away, with ail the power of the right arm jerk the horse head to tbe side of the neck, at the same time springing to the lett of the ve hicle ready" tb' jump. As soon as done immediately jerk the horse’s head to the left side of the neck and change your po sition to the opposite side of tbe carriage. Repeating this with all one's strength and as quickly as possible, the horse must stop his speed. Under this treatment it is im - possible for him to proceed, but it must be done quickly, so as not to allow tbe horse to straighten nis position or to turn around. I have ueen run away with sev eral times, and have always tried Rarey’s plan with success. A writer in the Fruit Recorder makes the statement that one ot the nelgnbors planted some cabbage plants among his corn where the corn missed, and the but- tertlies did not find them. He bar there fore come to tbe conclusion that if the cab. bage patch were in the middle of the corn field the butterflies would not find them,as they fiv low and like plain sailing. A. J. Dowmno, who was one of the best horticulturists America baa ever known, said: “If I were to preach a ser mon on horticulture, I should take for my text. “Bur the soil.’ Frequent and deep stirring will enable one to grow fine vege tables on comparatively poor and slightly manured soil, while without it one fails to gain the proper advantage, even from tbe richest and finest soil.” Am Iowa correspondent of the German town Telegraph makes bis granary dis tasteful to rats by “daubing all the angles on the outside of the bnildsng with hot pine tar for the width of three or four inches, and also any seam or crack where a rat or mouse can stand or gnaw.” Farmsmtikb says that the best method of storing thoroughly dry and clean wheat is in sacks isolated from each other, care being taken to keep a sufficiently low temperature in tbe granary. DOMESTIC. Kbbpino the Room Wabm.—The oil ing of the cracks of the windooa, by the use of rubber weather stripe keeps ont currants of cold air. In the absence of these strips, paste strips of paper in the cracks. Pieces of beard or of scantling, covered with carpet, placed at the bot toms of the doors, will keep draughts of cold air from the feet. But we need Uv>t only to keep out the cold, but to keep in the heat. In homes where there are nt inside shutters, and there is only the glass, with perhaps an outer blind between the room and “all out doors,” a great deal of heat passes of£ The hanging of a curtain at the window will prevent this in a great measure. In the absence of anything else, a news paper pnt up at the window may be used, and will answer the purpose of throwing the heat back into the room as well as a heavy blanket. In this, as in other matters, the little leaks are constant sources of loss, and seed look ing after, A big handed sawyer named Shaw, Put his finger too near the buzz-saw, He saw his mistake. But each pain and acho, Bu Jacobs Oil cured in his paw. A rheumatic old man named Meeker, Was sick a whole yeur in Topeeker, He there would have died, But St. Jacobs Oil tried. It sent him back cured to Osweeger. A new industry in Japan is said to be that of lacquering plaster, causing it to resemble marble. On a basis of clay this lacquer-work is especially novel. The olay is baked after the fashion of porcelain, and the hardness and ring of the material oombiue with the skill of the lacqnerer to produce a result only distinguishable from marble itself by the expert. “An excellent mantlepieoe of this description may be obtained,” says the Japan Mail, “for about $25, which is less than one is obliged to pay for anything respectable in Kcyaki,” The invention does not appear to have been received with favor thus far, but it is believed that the result must ulti mately prove very remunerative for the inventor.

Doctors may disagree as to the best methods and remedies, for the cure of constipation and disordered liver and kidneys. But those that have used Kidney-Wort, agree that it by far the best medicine known. Its ac tion is prompt, thorough and lasting. ty With Diamond Dyes any lady can get as good results as the best practical dyer. Every dye warranted true to name asd sample. Sav» the Bread Crumbs.—The waste of bits of bread in some families is un pardonable. Every fragrant of clean bread, if no bigger than a pea, should be saved and used. If attention be given to this, the quantity of ornmbs that wonld otherwise be wasted, will astonish one who tries it. Do not allow the crumbs to mould; place them in a plate in the stove oven with the door open, until they are quite dry. Then roll the ornmbs until they are as ftue as meal, and keep in a carefully closed vessel; a fruit can is excellent. Crumbs prepared in this way, are useful to bread chops or cutlets, oysters for broiling, egg-plant for frying; they make the most perfect of bread puddings, and are unequalled for stuffing.

J. 0. BTOETZEL, 683 Fulton street, Chicago, 111. It is a i;ood plan when making dres ses for a very small boy to make two pairs of sleeves. Jonah’s gonrd did not grow faster than do the arms of a healthy infant, and it is frequently a cause of dismay when dresses that should be worn for six months answer only for three. It is a simple matter to rip out the small sleeves and sew in the large ones if they are already made. Wlndow shades are being made of some lighter colored material than has heretofore prevailed—a pale cream or fawn-color, for instance, This is done to permit hand-painting ornamentation upon it, a pastime which will no doubt be an enjoyable one for those sufficient ly talented to undertake it. The light tones of blue, lilac, etc., are, of course, as popular as they have at all times been. ftatlafhrtory Evidence. S. W.Gr&ham, Whole<«)<} Druggist, of Auntin, Te*., writes: "I have been handling Dr. Wu.

Durno's Catarrh Snuff cures Catarrh and all affec tions of the mucous membrane. Hebe is a suggestion which should be borne in nund: When you have the wood-work in a room painted, It is a good plan to have about two Inches of the floor painted also; have the paint the same color as that of the baseboard; then if, when changing carpets, the car pet wiU not oome close to the wall, the little space left will not be so unsightly. Square dining tables will be the most fashionable this season. They are elabo rately and artistically carved. The carving inclines almost entirely in the direction of the Renaissance and the free use of animals’ heads and paws. Fruit and other carvings from floral or vegetable objects seems, in a measure, to be avoided.
