WHY DO BEES SWASH? : Whydo bees-; swarm? is a very simple question to answer. In the first place, Wfr .they are built on .that plan, and, next, when the honey-flow is good, they commence to rear queens, and a few days before a queen is ready to "break her shell" and come out, she makes a piping noise, resembling the peeping of a young chick. The old queen makes for the young queen-cell, and will destroy the queen if the "bee-guards" do not prevent her. But, if they prevent it, the old queen ^ kicks up a muss in the hive, and the / workers catch the excitement and begin to fill up -with honey?not "brood food'' ?the old queen leaves, and the filled bees follow. To prevent swarming, persons who use the frame-hive can do so by raising out the frames and finding the queen-cells. Cut them out, and there will be no swarming, if they are kept cut out. |rr This is the only preventive. I've kept bees eighteen years, and can control the. swarming every time.?frame Farmer. THE ROPE CURE FOR KICKERS. mL. y. Daring the last thirty-five years a neighbor has cured over twenty horses of the kicking habit, without failing in any case attempted. Following is his method: Take a half-inch rope that has been stretched until it cannot stretch any more, tie it around the horse six inches back of the pad and bellyband of the. > harness; insert a short stick and twist it np nearly as tight as the rope will bear without breaking, and tie the stick so that it will stay.

As time went on, the feeling grew upon him so mueh that he couldn't sleep, and he asked some of his neighbors to inform upon him, so that he could pay the penalty and in that manner ease his mind. But his neighbors refused to do this, and as a last resort Farmer Gunclerson in- : formed upon himself. The other day he went to Norristown, and, telling the Presiding Judge his crime, the latter went with him to a magistrate, where Gunderson swore that he had violated the law.

Babylon was the paradise of architecture, and driven out from thence the grandest buildings of modern-times are only the evidence of her fall. The site having been selected for the city, two million men were employed in the rearing of her walls and the building of her works. It was a city sixty miles injcircumference. There was a trench all around the city from which the material for the building of the city had been digged. There were twenty-ftve gates on each side the city; bet-wen every-two gates a. tower o? defense springing into the skies; from each gate on the oue side,* street running straight through to the corresponding gate on the other side, so there Were -fifty streets fifteen miles long. Through the city ran a branch of the river Euphrates. This river sometimes overflowed its banks, and to keep it from the ruin of the city a lake was constructed, into which the surplus-water of this river would rim during the time-of freshets, and the water was kept in this artificial lake until time of drought, and then- this' water would stream down over the cily. At either end of the bridge spanning the Euphrates there was a palace?the one palace a mile and a half around, the other palace seven and a half miles around.

There were pumps worked by mighty machinery, fetching up the water from the .Euphrates to this hanging garden, as it was called, so that there were fountains sponting into the sky.

You cannot always depend upon earthly balances. A pound is not always a pound, and you pay for one thing and you get another; but in the balance which is suspended to the throne of God, a pound is a pound, and right is right, and wrong is wrong, and a soul is a soul, and eternity is eternity.

But, my friends, thai is not the kind of balances I am to speak of to-day; tliat is not the kind of weights aad. measures. I am to speak of that kind of balances which can weigh principles, weigh churches, weigh men, weigh nations, and weighr/orlds. "What!"you say, "isitpossxble that our world is to be weighed?". Yes.

That is ou one bide. That side comes down, and the church, not being abje to stand the test, rises in the balances. It does not mike any difference about your magnificent ma? chinery. A church is built for one thing?to save souls. If it saves a few souls when it might save a multitude of souls, God will spew it out of His mouth. "VVeiglied and found wanting!

This last cam* down, all the brilliancy of the scene vanished. What is that voice coming up from Sedan? Weighed and found wanting. But T must become more individual and more personal in my address.

Axe you faithful in a thousand relations in life?' "Yes." "So far so good. But now, before you get out of this scale I want to ask you two or three questions. "Have your thoughts always been right?" "No," you say "no." Put down one mark. "Have you loved the Lord with all your heart, and soul, and mind, andstrengtn?" "No,"you say. Make another mark- "Come, now, be frank and confess that in ten thousand things you have come short?have you not?" " Yes." Make ten thousand marks.

I put on your side the scales all the good deeds you ever did, all the kind words you ever uttered; but on the other side the scales I put this weight, which God says I must put there?on the other side the scales and opposite to yours I put this weight: "By the deeds of the law shall no flesh living be justified." "Weighed and found wanting-. Still, the balances of the sanctuary are suspended and we are ready to weigh any who come. Who shall be the next? Well, here is a formalist. He comes and he gets into the balances, and as he gets in I see that all his religion is in genuflexions and in outward observances. As he gets into the scales I say: "What is that you have in this pocket?" ' Oh,"hesays, "that is Westminster Assembly uatecmsm." J. say: "very gooa. ?ma.b have you in that other pocket?" "Oh," he Bays, "that is the Heidelberg Catechism." "Veiy good. "What is that you have under your arm, standing in this balance of the sanctuary?" "Oh," he says, "that is a church record." "Very good. What are all these books on your side the balances?" "Oh,"' he says, "those are 'Calvin's Institutes.'" "My brother, we are not weighing books; we are weighing you. It cannot be said that you are depending for your salvation upon your orthodoxy. Do you not know that the creeds and the forms of religion are merely the scaffolding for the building? Tou certainly are not going to mistake the scaffolding for the temple. Do you not know that men have gone to perdition with a catechism in their pocket?" "But" says the man, "I cross myself often." "Ah! that will not save you." "But," says the man, "I am sympathetic for the poor." "That will not save you." Says the man, "I sat at the communion table." "That will not sgve you." "But," says the man, "I have had my name on the church records." ''That will not save you." But I have been a professor of-religion forty years." "That will not save you. Stand there on your side the balances and I will give you the advantage?I will let you have all the creeds, all the church records, all the Christian conventions that were eve? held, all the communion tables that were ever built, on. your side the balances. On the other side the balances I must put what God says I must put there. I put this million pound weight on the otner side the balances: "Having the form of godliness, but denying L1?

Yes, here comes a worldling. He gets into the scales. I can very easily see what his whole life is cjade up of. Stocks, dividends, percentages, "buyer ten days," '"buyer thirty days." Get in, my friend; get into these balances and be weighed?weighed for this life and weighed for the life to come. He gets in. I find that the two great questions in his life are, "How cheaply can I buy these goods?" and "How dearly can I sell them?" I find he admires Heaven because it is a land of gold and m oney : l n n mtlbO MO CCU5J . I find from talking with him that religion and the Sabbath are an interruption, a vulgar interruption, and he hopes on the way to church to drum up a new customer. All the week he has been weighing fruits, weighing meats, weighing ice, weighing coal, weighing confections, weighing worldly and perishable commocCiies,~nQ.t realizing the fact that he himself has been wei^?v-your side the balances, 0 worlding!

But it does not add one ounce, for at the very moment we are congratulating you on your fine house and upon your princely income God and the angels are writjug in regard to your soul, "Weighed and found wanting." But I must go faster snd speak of the final scrutiny. The fact is, my friends, we are moving on amid astounding realities. These pulses which now are drumming the march of life may, after a while, call a halt. We walk on a hair hung bridge over chasms. All around us are dangers making read]'' to spring on us from ambush. We lie down at nigilt, not Knowing wnetuer wt? sutuu uun m the morning. We start out for our occupations, not faiowing whether we shall come back. Crowns being burnished for thy brow or bolts forged for thy prison. Angels of light ready to shout at thy deliverenCe, or fiends of darkness stretching up skeleton hands to pull thee down into ruin consummate. Suddenly the judgment will be here. The angel, with one foot on the sea and the other foot on theland, will swear by Him that lin eth forever and ever that time shall be no longer: 'Behold, Heopmeth with clouds, and ev ery eye shall see Him." Hark to the jarrine of the mountains. Why, this is the setting down of the scales, the balances. And then there is a flash as from a cloud, but it is the glitte r of the shining balances, and they are hoisted, and all nations are to be weighed. The un forgiven get in on this side the Daiances. They may have weighed themselves and pronounced a flattering decision. The world nay have weighed them and pronounced l-hem moral. Now they are being weighed in God's balances?the balances that can make no mistake. All the property gone, all the titles of distinction gone, all the worldly successes gone; there is a soul, absolutely nothing but a soul, an immortal soul, a never dying soul, a soul stripped of all worldly advantage, a soul?on one side of the scales. Pn the other side the balances are wasted Sabbaths,'disregarded sermons, ten thousand opportunities of mercy and pardon that were cast aside. They are on the other side the scales, and there God stands, and in the presence of men and devils, cherubim and archangel, Jle announces, while groaning: earthquake, and crackling conflagration, a&d judgment trumpet, and everlasting storm repeat it: "Weighed in the balance and found wanting." But, say some who are Christians: "Certainly you don't mean to say that we will haV# to get i$to the balances. Our sins are all pardoned, our'title to heaven is secure. Certainly you are not going to put us in the balances?" Yes, my brother. "We must al appear before the judgment seat of Christ, and on that day you are certainly going to be weighed. . O follower of Christ, you get into the balances. The bell of the judgment is Tinging, You must get into the balances. You get in on this side. On the other side the balances we will place all the opportunities of good which you did not improve, ail the " attainments in piety which you must have had, but which you refused to take. We place them all on the other side .They go down, and your soul rises in the scale. You cannot weigh against all those imperfections. Well, then, we must give you the advantage,' and on your side of the scales w?j will nlace all the ffood deeds that vou have ever done, and all the kind words you have ever uttered. Too light yet! Well, we must put on your side" all the consecration of your life, al] tho holiness of your life, al] the prayers of youflife,'"airthe faith of "your Christian life, Too light yet! Come, mighty men of the past, and get in on that side the scales.

If some ane should come and put on the other side the scales all our imperfections, all your envies, ill your jealousies, all your inconsistencies Df life, they would not budge tiie scales wiih Christ on your side the scales. Go free! rhere is no condemnation to them that are In Christ Jesus. Chains broken, prison louses opened, sins pardoned. Go free! Weighed in the balances, and nothing,' nothing wanting. I gj? ?

Will not this whole audience say: "I am insufficient, lam a sinner, I am lost by reason of mv transgressions, but Christ has paid it all. Lord, and my God, my life, my "pardon, my Heaven. Lord Jesus, I hail thee."' Oh! if you could only understand the worth of that sacrifice which I have represented to you under a figure?if you could undc-rtand the worth of that sacrifice, this tvnole audience would tnis moment accept Christ and be saved- 1 We go away off, or back into history, to get sorna illustration by which vre may set forth what Christ has done for us. "We need not go so far. I saw a vehicle behind a runaway horse dashing through the street, a mother and her two children in the carriage. The horse dashed along as though to hurl them to death, and a mounted policeman with a shout clearing the way, ana the horse at full run, attempted to seize those runaway horses and to save a calamity, when his own hnrsfl fell and rolled over him. He was picked up half dead. Why were our sympathies so stirred? Because he was badly nurt, and hurt for others. But I tell you to-day of how Christ, the Son of God, on the blood red horse of sacrifice, came for our rescue, and rode down the sky and rode unto death for our rescue. Are not your hearts touched? That was a sacrifice for you and for me. O Thou who didst ride on taered horse.of sacrifice! come this hour and ride through thli assemblage on the white horse of victory.

The principal speaker was Professor Lewis Maclouth, President of the South Dakota Agricultural College at Brookings. There were hundreds of artesian wells, he said, in the valley of the James River, each including a large flow of water from an average depth of 1000 feet. The power thus obtained was now utilized to run steam presses, electric-light dynamos, mills and factories. An inexhaustible supply of water and of water power could VkA i'n fKic t*o 1 l\rr on in tAUi ^ 1JUV4 XAO. lilW 1 WJ uu am crease ia the number of artesian wells. Some of the wells already flowing gave out 4000 gallons a minute. If the yearly flow of those wells could be saved and stored in reservoirs,to be used as needed, so as to supply in the growing season the deficiency in the natural rainfall, it would add enormously to the development of agriculture and turn the entire James River Valley into a luxuriant garden. One thousand such wells, Professor Maclouth says, would add $400,000,000 to the value of the land in that region. The committee saw the working: of an artesian well that supplies water and water power to this city. Four large hose pipes were connected with the street hydrants, and threw into the air a stream of water eighty feet high.?Mw Tori Sun. Queer Invention*.
