The Taaaltr af MlMrUMMi Of what value is it that our "gild ed youths" have larger fortunes and consequently wider opportunities for social and intellectual enjoyment and advantage if they have not the cul ture of mind and heart which ena bles them to profit by their fortunes! Of what use has been the toiling and the moiling, the striving and delving, to amass riches for those who have not refinement of nature, good man Ben, good morals I What happiness can it bring to the parents who in the evening of their days are compelled to see that while they have been paying close heed to their financial affairs, the sons and daughters for whose takes they have stinted their own pleasures and stunt ed their own finest feeling hare de veloped only into selfish, indolent, careless animals, to whom the pos session of money means nothing bet ter than big dinners and balls, mag nificent dressing and lavish display I Shall not such parents remember, when it is too late, that our largest interests are those of heart, mind and morals, that our smallest axe those of material possessions I Har per's Bazar. Impiwvtac tha Bm. Among the many insects indispems aUetoman are the cochineal bug, the silkworm and the honey bee. To the latter Dr. Lamborn's attention has recently turned, doubtless with a view to bringing about the advent of the much talked of "coming bee." Although , apicultnn is the oldest economic pursuit, it is only within the last century that much erientiflo thought has been directed in the per fection of the stock. Much has been accomplished in the line of developing a gentler bee, but at the expense of other qualities. To evolve an ideal bee some points must be considered hich have hitherto been overlooked. A combination of desirable points of various races and an elimination of objection's must require much pa tience, time and money. Entomo logical News. Tha Pablla TraUUtor.

"Jason," said Mrs. Calliper to her husband as they eat at dinner, "when I was coining twok from Cometville the other day, after my visit to Mrs. Gratebar, the train buy went through the care, as usual, with papers, maganinea and candy, and when he was making the trip with the candy he threw a package into the lap of a Utile girl who was sit ting with her mother. They were nice looking people, but it seemed to me somehow as though they were very poor. Ilmagiuedthntahewasa widow and that site had to look out now for every ptrany. Well, the lit tie girl picked up the caiuly package and looked at it all over aud read what it said on it aud finally she said to her mother: " 'Mamma, can't I have this candy P "And hef mother said softly: " 'No, dearie. I wih you could, but mamma can't simr the money.' "The little girl didn't say a word more. She jtwt held the jiacknge and kept it ready to hand to the train boy when he should come along. It was plain that merely to hold it was a pleasure. "Sitting in the next sea back of the mother and her child was a woman who couldn't help hearing what had been said. She had of course kept quiet but when she saw the little girl Hitting there holding the candy she couldn't keep still any longer, and she leaned forward and said: " 'Madam, I don't wish to intnido, but it would afford me great pleas ure if you would permit me to buy the candy for the little girl.' "Of course this was an intrusion, Jason, but the mother couldn't fail to realize from the woman's voice and manner the spirit in which the offer was made, and I am glad to say that she accepted it with a smilo aud a pleasant 'I thank you,' and the lit tle girl looked up, smiling, and said, '80 do L' And so you see, Jason, the little girl got the candy after all."

The uses to which asbnstus is ap plied are so varied that the mining of the mineral has become quite an extensive industry. In the majority of mines the stone is blauted out, ma chine drills boing used to bore the blast holes. Tha crude asbestus iu the most modern plants is carried up an inclined railway to a stone crusher, where it is broken with the adhering rock into pieces not much over 14 inches in size. From thecrusher the ore drops on an inclined sieve, which is shaken continually by suitable machinery, the loose liter and dust going directly to the cleaning and grading machines) while the larger pieces are dropped on a revolving table, where the worthless rock is removed by hand. The larger pieces are still further crushed and sorted, the objoct being to procure a clean titer free from dirt The chief difficulty in this method of preparing the material lies in the fact that if asbestus is crushed with a considerable amount of stone until the latter is reduced to powder the long and most valuable part is partially destroyed, while if the stone is not entirely reduced bo fore grading it a large amount of waste is the result.
