HEIDELBERG’S STORK.
The Famous Bird Has Returned to It:
Nest, and the “(hole Town
Is Rejolclng.
Many of our young friends no doubt.
have heard of the famous stork of
‘ Heidelberg, which, it is said, has for
nature of the ruins, it was evident that .
they were,--the remains of substantial
houses, in which well—tO-do people had .
lived. A crumbling parish church .- .
stood in the midst, and this the party
had the curiosity to enter. They found '
it entirely dismantled and the walls ;
fast falling away, but in'on‘e corner of :~
the desolate place two little waifs had ,
taken refuge. They, like refugees of ‘
old, had sought sanctuary in the church,
and found it.
'A girl of 12, with her knees drawn up, -
sat- on the floor by an empty can and an ;
old iron kettle. She had a mop of black
hair and luminous dark eyes, which
showed no lack of intelligence, and
shone with unusual brilliancy out of
her .pinched face. Huddled close to her
was a boy of five, with the same dark
features and the same look of patient,
hopeless endurance. A small bundle
of rags, on which they sat and slept,
completed the list. of their possessions.
A few questions,_._ says the Cincinnati
Commercial Tribune,.drew out their
story. Their mother and father had
died of the fever, they had no relatives,
no friends, nowhere to go, no one to
succor them. They had lived in the

buried. They had subsisted on what

age the masculine part of bread winner,
had gone forth to glean scraps of food,
no matter what, so long as they could
eat it. She—the woman—had been
true to the feminine role, the role of
self-sacrifice, for, while the boy was
still plump, her features and limbs
were emaciated, and starvation looked
from her eyes.
Her feet were drawn up and were
stiffened from sitting forever in that
one position, and she was unable to
stretch them out. Their names were
Sabrina and Guillermo Hernandez.
They made no complaint; they
garded it as entirely natural. They did
not expect anything else, and had lived
on, day after day, kept alive by their
instinct of self-preservation, their keen
intelligence dead to the possibilities of
life.
The kind-hearted nurses melted over
the pathetic story, and they determined
to carry the children back to camp.
There was nobody to raise any objec-

being translated to paradise. A little
tent was pitched 'back of the nurses’ .
row at the division hospital. and the
children were washed and clothed and
fed, 'and were given, besides scientific
care, the love and tenderness which is
even more of a blessing to orphaned
childhood.
Guillermo soon'became strong, and.
clothed in a beautiful new sailor suit,
presented a wonderful contrast to the
ragged, hungry little being of a short
time since. But Sabrina, though she’
rewarded the kindness lavished upon
her with gratitude, had gone one step
too far on that long, painful way which
leads to death and starvation. All they
could do was to lessen her sufferings
as they watched her waste away. She
showed the utmost intelligence of mind
and an inexhaustible patience, for she
had been well drilled in all the grades
of physical suffering. She retained her
brightness until she breathed her last
tortured breath. and the Wasted body
was still.
Guillermo came north with the
nurses. He is to spend his summer in
Virginia. '

chimney of a certain house in that city.
Of course it migrates every .Winter to a
[more comfortable climate, but as soon
as spring arrives so does a. stork that
at once locates on that. particular chim-
iney, and the residents insist that it is

It is a fact that many years ago the
chimney was removed in order to make

some repairs on the house, and the nest
wns‘put on a. chimney of'another house,
and when Mr. Stork returned he showed
that he did not like the change at all,
and positively refused to settle at. the
new location. ' His, dissatisfaction
aroused public interest and sympathy,
for the Heidelberg people are proud of
their stork; hence it was arranged that
his nest should be replaced in its origi-
nal position. This met with his ap-
proval, so he settled down and began
business at the old stand.
This stork has now returned to
Heidelberg after the winter, so writes
n. Correspondent from that city, and, be-
sides many Othcr signs of good fortune,
his advent. is a. sign that good weathe
has come. 1
Some years ago his mate was shot,
and for two years (a reasonable length
of time) he, seemed inconsolable over
,her loss and for a. time it was feared
that he would die. It is-true that he has
now another mate, but it is very ap-
parent that he is not so dcvoted to her
as he was to No. 1, and it was noticed
that he did not spend so much of his
time at home as before. The reason of
. 'this was understood when accidentally
it. was discovered that he'had yet an-
other mate in a. neighboring town.

A New Method for the Treatment of
Persons Afflicted with Nerv-
ous Maladies.
An English physician claims to have
discovered a new and efficacious cure
for persons afflicted with nervous or
mental maladies. If such persons, he
says, can only procure pleasant dreams,
they will soon regain their health, and
his aim is, therefore, to furnish them
with delightful dreams.
For this purpose he uses a soft leather
cap, which covers the patient-’5 head
and ears and leaves only the face un-
covered. Beside thc ears are placed two
metal plates, which are joined by a
rubber tube in a phonograph. The pa-
tient rests on a. divan in a dark room
and in front of him is a» sort of magic
lantern. from which are projected at
brief intervals various enjoyable pic-
tures. In this way, it. is claimed, the
eyes of the sick person are delighted,

while at the same time his ears are
soothed by the vibrations of the phono-
graph.
As a result weariness comes upon him
and is soon followed by slumber, and
i: is while he is dozing in this manner
that happy dreams are evoked, thanks
‘ to the phonograph and stereopticon.
After this light slumber comes a deep
sleep, which, we are assured, is always
most beneficial.
Several tests of this kind have been
made with success, and it. is ,said that.
not only are tired nerves refreshed by
this method. but the patient’s body
also rapidly increases in weight.‘ That
pleasant sounds and sights are soothe
ing to the nerves we have. all known
for a long time. but' that pleasant
dreams have a tendency to make per-
sons fat will certainly be news‘to the
‘ general public.
Fresh Air ls Cheap. 'l‘oo.
There’s nothing like fresh air and
plenty of it for health and, beauty.
Every apartment or house ‘should be
thoroughly aired every day.'winter and
summer, and beds should be left Open
for an hour or two. The lazy housewife
neglects to turn the mattresses every
day, ’but the Wise ones know that her
family will be far less likely to be nerv-
ous and tired if this is done.

It Should Be Avoided: u Possibleycn
Cool Day: and Rainy Day:
in Summer. V '
No one should think of Opening the
hives and working with bees in. cold
weather in winter, or in cool yveathe‘
in summer. There are but few days
during the-“winter that line can do any
successful work with bees, says a writer
in Texas Farm and Ranch, and that is
only an occasional day" that- is warm
cnough for them to fly, and at any other
time it will be a detriment to them
to molest them. Bees should remain in _
absolute repose during all cold weather.
There should not be a path or road—
way near where the hives are sit-
ting that is to be traveled by either
man or beast during winter. The jar-
ring that hives frequently get from
heavy winds is very injurious to them.
Not only in winter,”but in spring and
summer there is a. wonderful difference
in results by handling bees at the
proper time. All handling of bees on.
0001 days and rainy days ought to be
avoided if possible. It makes bees irri-
table tO be thus handler], and-iiivith but
little effort we can have theufiita fight-
ing pitch. , This is also trucir'yfvhen‘han-
dling them early in the morii‘ifig" or late
in the evening. The proper: time to
work with bees is on bright days, and
from nine o'clock a. m. to four o’clock
p. m. Much better work can be done,
and with greater satisfaction, when the
bees are busy at work gathering honey,
and the more busily they are occupied
the less liable they are to show any ope
position. During the honey season bees
may be handled right along every’day
without the aid of smoke, and much
better work can be performed without-
smoke. if we but go about it in a proper
manner. Handling bees at the time
above referred to, and doing the wgrk
carefully so as to avoid arousingthem
by rough usage, we can almOst dispense
with the bee smoker during the honey
season and get along much better with-
out. it. To use the smoker whenev’i’ar
we handle a colony of bees is to, Whip
them into subjection, which is abso-
lutely wrong, for if the little fellows
want to be on friendly terms with us,
and allow us to handle them thus, why
should we make battle with them and
whip them into subjection, without any
provocation on their part? Such treat-
ment would seem that we had less in-
telligence than they. '

NOTES FOR THE APIARY.
The greatest hindrance to large honey
crops is letting the bees run short Of
stores in spring. - '
When the brood-chamber becomes so
full of bees that they are somewhat
crowded for room, additional space
should be’hdded.
We cannot look for much surplus
honey if we allow the bees to swarm at
will, because excessive swarming will
be the rule with them.
_ A colony that is slow in building up
now may have a defective queen or may
have none at all. An examixmtion'will-
usually disclose the trouble. _
Cross, stinging bees are usually the
result of improper handling. Rough
treatment will not succeed, but will ir-
ritate the bees almost. beyond pedemp-
tion. In handling do not kill '0. bee if’
you can possibly avoid it. a
NO one can get. aong without a bee’
smoker when working with bees; even
a specialist does not think ofhandling
bees without it. The smoker is indisj
pensnble, and many fail to perform the
work necessary by .being without one.
It. is a very erroneous idea. that some
'people have, that bees are always look-
ing around for some one to attack and
sting. Bees as a rule do not vanturc an
attack on anyone or anything. They
Simply defend, when attacked, in a.
vicious manner, and only make a de-

How to Continue Ducks.
Use wire netting 18 inches wide. Ev .
cry six or eight feet nail b sharp-point-
ed stake to the wire. The pointed end
should extend down below the bottom
' edge of the‘wire, 10 or 12 inches. Such
a fence is easily set, and-when not want-
’ ed the stakes can be pulled out, and the
wire and stakes can be pulled up and
put away for; future use. The apple'
orchard or a portion of it, if in grass,
will make a good place for the ducks.
It is best'to build the pen where there
are some trees. on account of the wel- ,
