TWILIGHT.
Still in the .--eat a berry colored bar
Ot sunset plooms. Against it one lone fir
Darkens deey boughs. Above it, courier
Of dow and dreams, burns dusk's appointed
star.
Like fairy bombs exploding in a war
'Twixt elves and gnomes the fireflies flame,
the chirr
Of crieket wakes, and each green chorister
Of marsh and creek lifts a vague voice afar.
And now, withdrawn behind the woodland
belts,
A whippoorwill, where, with attendant states
Of purple and silver, slow tlio great moon melts
Into tlio night, to show me where she waits,
There at the lane’s end. by the old beech tree,
Who keeps her lips, sweet ns a flower, for me.
—Madison Cnwcin in Chap Book.
TRAMP AND ARTIST.
“Thank God for all things beauti
ful, ” cried the artist
“Thank God for my good dinner,”
said the tramp.
Then she wiped her mouth on the
back of her rough hand, and tlio artist
felt for his pipe.
He found it and fumbled for some
matches, laying palette and brushes
carefully on the ground.
The matches found, he struck one.
Encountering in the process a glanco
from curious eyes, ho seut the box spin
ning in their owner’s lap.
“Join me?” ho said, and, the tramp
acquiescing with a nod, tossed a ciga
rette after it, as he hud some time Ijcfore
tossed her his luncheon out of the wal
let at his foet
She picked it up and fingered it, then
placed it somewhat gingerly between
her lips.
It was a maiden effort. That was evi
dent. He laughed when tho thing rollod
smoking to his feet.
Presently the girl’s gazo wandered to
the canvas.
‘“ls that me?” she asked and paused
anil flushed resentfully.
“A doubtful likeness, since you fail
to recognize it. ” He laughed.
“It looks,” sho said and stoppod.
“Well?” ho urged, expectant of a
qnaiut criticism.
“Like a play actress —in tights, M tsbc
finished, frowning heavily.
Ho chuckled. The remark amused
him. Ho knew so many “play actresses
in tights” who would shrink from con
tact with this dusty waysido wanderer,
yet in turn this vagrant shrank from
them. Sho resented oven tho rosom
blance of a curve. The thing was hu
morous.
He turned and glanced at the canvas.
Yes, he had outlined the figure some
what daringly, but then it was that
grand sweep from knee to -shoulder
which had first attracted him. Ho hud
passod her earlier in the day, sitting by
the roadside combing out her lmir—had
passed her, with his still buoyant step
and knapsack strapped to shoulder,
humming gayly. But—struck by some
thing in the girl’s attitude—he had re
traced his steps and asked hear to sit to
him.
She still regarded tlie picturo, lines
of dissatisfaction puckering her brows.
“Well, ” said the artist.
“Them boots of mine,’’ she answcrod.
A pause. “Couldn’t you rub ’em out?”
persuasively. “I’ve got a better pair,
spring side uus, in my bundle. ’’
The artist shook his head. They were
bad boots, he conceded, but good art.
“Is it for the Royle academy?’’she
said.
“What do you know about the Royal
academy, pray?”
“Oh, nothin, reely, but I’ve been
there once afore. ”
“I thought you told mo this was
yonr first sitting?”
“So ’tis —to remember; I was a baby
the larst time. Father t-ook me. ’E was
a artist too. ’E wos a reel on, though,
not a paivement chalker. ”
Ho laughod.
"That’s understood, since be was a
Royal academician. What was his
name?"
“I ain’t a-goin to tell.”
“What was the subject?"
“I wos—in long clothes. Mother re
members it. It -wos the time ’e come to
see ’er, an she saw the picture after
ward in a winder in Pall Mall. ”
Ho was embellishing his signature
with a fiourish of the brush when a
thought seemed to strike him and hold
him by the wrist.
“What was it like? Did yonr mother
ever tell you?”
“ ’Courso she did, lots of times. Sho
was proud to think ’o’d noticed me. I
wos lyin a’moat naked on some workus
lookin steps, an my eyes wos wide open,
lookiu up’ards at the stars. ”
“ ‘The Love Child!’ ”
“That’s itl You’ve.aoed the picture
too?”
“Often, ” quietly. “It’s copied quite
a deal. ”
His hand was growing careless; it
swerved, and tho brush flipped. The
girl cried out; there was a daub across
tho canvas.
“There now,” regretfully, “you’ve
mado a smudge tv rest your name. ”
The artist did not answer. His silence
and abstraction were taken as dismiss
als. She bitched up her bundle, wish
ing him good day.
“No, wait a bit. ” Ho got up for the
first time and came and stood before
her. “'Won’t you shake hands before
you go, my—my dear?"
Bewildered, but gratified, she gave
him hers at once. It was rough and
sunburned and perhaps not overclcan,
yet there was a curious resemblance be
tween the tramp’s hand and his own.
He dropped it hurriedly.
“How old are you, my child?”
“Eighteen come Chris’mas. ”
His eyes were on her face. They
studied it intently.
■ “Ah-h!” he said and dropped a few
steps back. “Well, goodby. Good luck.
God bless you. ”
Her eyes filled with tears.
“What are you crying for?*’
The tears brimmed over.
“At you. You spoke so kind. You
made me think of mother. ”
“A hint for your future guidance. ”
His voioe was hard again. “Never trust

worst sort. ”
Tho change in his tone depressed her.
Sho sighed forlornly. “Pore mother
told me that ”
His glance foil to earth. A pink tip
ped daisy was peeping above tho grass.
Ho ground it into the sod with the too
of his heavy boot
“Goodby again. ”
She took his proffered hand.
“Stop that I can’t bear to so* a
woman cry. ”
Stop it she couldn’t, but she crooked
her nrm und hold it boforo her fuco.
“Life’s so ’ard, ” sho moaned. “Peo
ple is such ’ogs, nn, oh, I’m so lonely
since my poro mother died. ”
He stood beside her, listening to her
sobs.
“My dear,” ho said at last, “we are
all lonely—you on tho high road, I in
tho cities, ‘poro mother’ in her grave.”
He paused, laying a hand on tho girl’s
heaving shoulder. “Loneliness is the
common lot; wo carry it hidden in our
souls through life. Even in crowds it
cries out eoaselessly above tho din. Wo
can make a noiso to drown it, we can
bury it deop down, wo can call onr
friends together and smoko and drink
upon its tomb—it will creep out in tho
nighttime, when tho others are all
gone, and, climbing on to onr pillows,
sit and jabber to us in the dark. But
life has to bo lived through,” throwing
back his head, "its prizes fought for,
squabbled over, and errors, I suppose,
must be committed by tho way. There’s
truth so brutal it might almost keep one
good. Tho man who ‘sees life’ isn’t ask
ed to pay tho piper; tho ‘wages’ are ex
acted, but it’s the innocent who pay. ”
Tlkj tramp’s tears were dried; sho
was lost in admiring wonder.
“Take my advice, my dear,” said
the man, with a curiously gentle smile,
“the advice of a man who might almost
be your—father: Go on being respecta
ble; stay innocent—keep good.”
He patted her shoulder, then gave it
a gentle push. And so they parted. Ho
watched her tramping down the long
white road.
“Confound her eyes!” he muttered.
“That’s why they haunted me!”
She trudged on with her bundle. His
eyes followed almost yearningly. She
rounded a bend. The tramp looked back
"Li/.!” ho murmured half uncon
scious. "Poor, pretty, foolish Liz!” His
own voice roused him. He smiled into
vacancy. “That was the name I I
thought I had forgotten. ”
The road turned. Kho disappeared
from view.
Ho whistled, frowned and finally
shrugged his shoulders.
“If she’d only been a lady,” present
ly. He was staring at the canvas. ‘ ‘ Bah 1
What nonsense 1 A tramp! Her mother's
child!”
He fell on one kneo and began pack
ing up his traps.
“Life's so ’ard, an. peoph is such
’ogs.”
His laugh rung out, ' *t it "/r-s’fc a
merry one. Picking up tbo pickin', he
held it in both hands.
“Goodby, young mournful 'h*
said. “Good luck go with you. Yon’vs
given me a heartache, but l wish you
well. ”
His face twitched. He laid the can
vas gently down.

A BEE’S RESTLESS LIFE.
It Bezhis Work When Three Day# Odd
and Dios at, TY-ily-Cvs,
G. W. Reynolds of Los Angelo
0:10 of the oldest tra-i.Ting men in the
United fUntc-s, has a ranch of which he
enjoys tolling even more than ho does
of the experiences through which he
has pass'd during his half century upon
the road. Tho ranch is near Am Diego,
Cal. Tho chief product, is honey. This
product is gained from two apiaries,
which Mr. Reynolds visits every tint*
liis business permits him to go to south
ern California.
“In my apiaries, which aro eared for
by my son,” said ho, “there are 140
stand of bees. Tho honey season lasts
from April to duly. Last season my
bees yielded 40,000 pounds of honey,
which sells in that country in bulk lots
at 4 cents a pound. Two of tho hives
gave over 500 pounds each. For ten
years I have been interested in bees in a
small way, and I take greater interest
in them every year. A*hive or stand of
bees is worth $3.50. In it are tho queen,
the drones and tho workers, a total
population of from 20,000 to 25,000
bees.
“This very good sized colony,” he
continued, “resides iu a hive or wooden
box. Iu the hive aro a dozen frames IS
by 7 incites. In these tho bees make or
deposit tho honey, a foundation of wax
having been first placed in each frame
by the beekeepor, so that the bees may
have something to build upon. The
honey is taken out of tho frames every
other week during the honey season.
While doing so there is little need of
protecting tlio hands. Tho bees seem to
bo most inclined to sting ono in the
face. So, as a precaution, tho man who
is removing tho honey from tho hives
wears a straw hat, from tho brim of
which is hung a silk veil, like thoy have
to do up iu the Klondike country to
ward off the summer mosquitoes.
“The queen is au absolute monarch
v.’ithin hor dominions. She is tlio un
disputed boss of the job. Au ordinary
bee lives during the working season on
ly 45 days. Young ones aro being hatch
er'.! out all tho time. A bco goes to work
at the tender ago of 8 days and hustles
like a veteran for 48 days. Then it is
just nattlrally all tired out, I suppose,
for it dies. Tho queen lives longer, and
whon a young queen cornea into exist
ence in tho hive sho drives tho old
queen out. Hor loyal subjects follow
hor in her banishment, and that is what
makes tho swarm.
“111 southern California tho boos niako
wntcr white honey when the black sago
is in blossom. When the white sago is
flowering, the honey has an amber
tinge. In winter tho bees make no hon
ey. Seventy-five carloads of tho article
are shipped out of Sun Diego county iu
good years.”— Dcuvi Republican.
