The Old Failing,
Yesterday fnorniug a man whose
very look proved how hungry and
pemiilcss he was, halted before an
eating stand at tho Central Market
to let his month water for a while.
The woman knew his worth and
called out: ‘Come, bo jogging
along. You won't get any food
here unless you've got tho cash.'
‘My dear woman/ he confidently
began, as lie drew nearer, ‘I aui not
hungry; Ijnst loft the breakfast ta
ble, after the heartiest meal I ever
ate, I was not looking at your
beautiful moats, your lovely cakes,
or rich and juicy pies, but atyour
se,f.‘ ‘\Y hat are you looking at me
I was wondering ‘ be safd,
‘if you were any relation to Lady
Clare, of England. You have the
same brown eyes, 9:11113 bountiful
hair, same sweet accent.* ‘I never
knew her/ replied the woman, ns
her lacc began to clear up. Didn't
eh ? Well, I never met two faces
nearer alike in their sweet express
ion. I wish I had your portrait
printed on ivory...l really wish I
had.' Sire handed him a halt pie
and a piece of meat, and as 110
sauntered off she began hunting
round for a piece of broken mirror.

• Do Queen Boos Sting’?
Decent investigations indicate
that the sting of the queen bee is
different in its structure from that
of the worker bee, and intended for
a different purpose, Tho sting of
the queen bee is only used to poison
a rival queen, and is not Capable of
inflicting wounds on the human
flush. If this is true, it will relieve
amateurs of much anxiety iu hand
ling queens. What say Major
Byrd and Dr llrown on this sub
led.
Commenting on this, tbe editor
says: “It is a well known fact that
bees invarm only when honey has
been abundant for a considerable
length of.time. It is also a fact
that, when taken in time, nine times
out of ten, swarming may bo pre
vented by giving more room iu the
hive, und various other expedients,
fully explained in all tho latest
works on bee-keeping.
For Exterminating Bcd-
Bug‘3.
One ounce of corrosive subli
mate, half a pint of alcohol. Wash
the bedstead thoroughly in strong
salt and water. When dry, with a
small brush or feather apply tho
mixtara to all the crevices. Be
sore the poison has dried in before
you make up the bed, or it will
I-.-avo uu ugly stain on tho mattress.

Twenty DoM.Aiis Itnw vltli. -En
quirer Sun: A gentleman iu Con
yers, (la,, offers the above sum as a
reward to any person who will, on
sight, read tho following without
mispronouncing a word: One
morning I found myself in a queer
locale amid a vast re.t ol burning
sa .ds. To inv relief 1 descried an
oasis, but alas! it turned out to be
a mirage. I could sec, as I thought,
cascades, geysers, and gewgaws in
describable. When I complained
to an Edomite of such a deceptive
laud, the untoward fell nv treated
me wilh contumely. 1 was only
saved from the puissant blows of
the nuisance, by tho timely appear
ance of a chamois which leaped up
fr m the font of a pyramidal cy
press, at which lie tired his fusee.
This perverse creaturo was s j mad
dined at my escape that be com
mitted f.'lo.dc-So. He was ill - pro
tege of tho king, and had been for
some time his employe in deci
phering cruciform inscriptions, and
may have been a Chaldean. Though
cleanly dressed, he a was not cleanly.
Now seeking a recess by a stream
filled with animalcules, I wrote ar
exquisite essay, drawing upon my
fertile brain, which I read each al
ternato day for a week, and then
wrapped it up and placed it in an
alcove for sale-keeping.
A Dl'UctoL's D,.sii —Boil new
potatoes and early beets separately,
but at the Jsame time; when thor
oughly cooked, slice separately,
and whilo still hot put a layor of
beets iu a deep dish, sprinkle light
ly with paper and salt, then add a
layer of potatoes, sprinkle wit )|sa!t,
and pepper and lay on thin slices
of new sweet butter; then slices 'of
beets and potatoes with sail, pep
per and butter as before until the
dish is full. Over the whole pour
enough thin sweet cream so that
after filtering down through the
beets and p tatooa, a few spoons of
it will be found ii# tbe bottom of
in- dish. Serve while still quite
warm. You will be sure to repeal
this dish sral times each year.

Sir John Mason, vvlio died in London

A well known capitalist of Macon, and
who generally knows whereof he speaks,
predicts that ttio cotton receipts at Ma

At twenty a man is sure that he

ns much as he once knew.
Tho total number of pupils at
Wesleyan Female College, Macon,

The practice of feeding stock on
the ground is not economical. If
you feed out doors, provide racks
to hold the feed. Tho actual loss
to tho farmer, oftentimes in a siire
glo season, exceeds the cost of the
necessary racks for effectually sav
ing this waste. Any farmer with a
little lumber, a saw, hammer, nails,
and ux and auger can make one.

One thing which commends tho

declares will never tell a lie like the
gas meter. The electric meter
stops measuring thy instant ihe

is not yet a fixed fact as a cheap il

and so gas stocks will keep up un
