II will Stop at the National Hotel One Day, Tueadny, Nov. 12th, 'SO. Cross Eyes Straightened, Eyelids liaised. Sore Eyes Cured, and People Made Beautiful. Cancers and Devouring; Monsters Removed anil the Sores Healed. Deformed Feet and Crooked Lege Made Per fect, and Every Clais of Human De formities Successfully Treated. Dr. Ilartman has finally agreed to stop at Owosso. He will take a sun of rooms at tho National Hotel where he will mactice Tuesday. Nov 12th, 8:00 a. rn. to 8:00 p. m. Dr. Hartman has positively no equal in his snecialties tho Eve. Ear. Cancer. Cripples and Chionio Diseases. Wp reproduce tho following report of cases from the Detroit t reo rress of September 22 : Mr.Tames Van Valkenburg, North ville, Mich., had a cancer at his lower hp for several years. It was an angry, ulcerating, eating sore, and resisted every effort he had ever made to Ptop it. He felt sure that if it was not soon removed that it would eat away his whole lip and finally, doubtless, his life. Seeing Dr. Hartman was coming to Detroit lie consulted him. Mr. Van Valken burg was so favorably impressed with the Doctor's manners and his seeming familiaritv with cancers that he at once placed himself under the doctor's treatment. He made two applications, one on two consecutive days, which gave neither pain nor suffering in any way, and in a week or so the cancer was removed, and now the place is filled up and healed perfectly. Indeed there is scarcely a mark left. He feels that die never can say enough in favor of Dr. Hart- man's treatment, and he says he does not believe it will ever return. Dr. Hartman saya it will not, and he believes him firmly. Mr. C. Sanford, of 308 Canfield avenue, Detroit, has been a well known resident of this city for 28 years, whose business has been that of keeninc a restaurant. Some five years ago a small sore came at his ear, which gradually larnrpil lind was verv nainful. It grew outwards to the extent of fully half an inch and then spread out over his temple. He had been advised by physicians to let it go, as there was no euro for it except to cut it away, and if that was done it would be sure to return soon aud. complete his de struction in short order. He was sure he could not last long any more in this condition, so he consulted Dr. Hartman at the Plankinton Hotel. That distinguished specialist at once . made an application of his lapara, and repeated it tho day following, and in a week the whole cancer came away, and now it is healed up, with scarcely the least scar to tell the fearful tale of his five years of suf fering. Dr. Hartman's applications gaye'Mr. Sanford not the least par ticle of pain. He used no knife, no plaster and no. chemical. Mr. San ford and his wife, as well as their friends, are perfectly dumbfounded at what Dr. Hartman has done, and the painless manner with which it was done. Mrs. 11. Lamme, 170 Illinois street, Detroit, has been an intense sufferer with scrofulous cancer for ten years. For a.long time her suffering was confined to the internal organs. At first she noticed the glands of her neck highly inflamed and enlarged, and then the disease broke out in her throat, tho tonsils became swollen, and finally broke, ulceration followed and 6he thought sho would surely die. But finally her throat got bet. ter, and she began to get hopes, when suddenly her breasts enlarged and great, hard lumps made their appearance in them. But before they had developed into open ulcers similar enlargements made their ap paarance in her liver, bowels, and in tho pelvic organs, causing her often to pray for death to relieve her of her misery. The worst, however, was yet to come. The bones of her legs and arms now became diseased, open running ulcers followed, and her body became a mass of corrup tion. To all this cancer suddenly broke out at her nose and spread over both cheeks, her physicians turned away and said 'her case was hopeless, and thus between life and death she continued to b?ar her suf ferings until Dr. Hartman came ' to the Plankinton Hotel. He wastfm mediately consulted, and the con se quence is Mrs. Lamme is relieved of all her sufferings the bone sores are healed, the swellings and absesses of all her internal organs aro healed, and all her infinite sufferings are entirely relieved ; and what is better than all the above, the cancer has been removed and all the sores it had caused are entirely healed. Sho now eats heartily and sleeps soundly all nisht. Before Dr. Hartman com menced his treatment be rarely slept an hour in a whole night. She says : "Tell all the siek if they in tho least doubt the above lo call at 170 IUm ois si reel, and see for themselves." Mr. Casper Wieberhaus, 220 Cal houn street, Detroit, had a very large cancerous tumor behind her left ear. It was closely adhering to tho bone and took considerable force to detach it. Dr. Hartman. removed it in less than a minute, and although it was quite painful while it lasted, Jurs. Wieberhaus was not in the least dis tressed from the operation. And in five minutes after it was removed the was as well and happy as ever in her life. Tho place where the tumor was has already heaieu, wun but the least tear remaining. Mr. William C. Ilumsey, ot Howell, Mich., a nroininent man of that place. havinjr filled a number of positions of trust in llio county, had a caucer on both temples for many years. The one on the right 8Hlo hud become very angry and was rapidly destroying till tho tissues over the temple. Dr. ilartman made his usual ap plications, which gave neither pain nor suffering, and, although not more than twe weeks have elapsed, the cancers have been destroj'ed and the sores penectiy healed. Mr. Ilumsey is very highly pleas ed with the result of Dr. 11 s treatment. ' Mr. William Lyons, of Windsor, Cana da had a cancer at the side of tho nose, close to the eve. for about fourteen yeais. At first, aud for a number of years, only a small sore, which had resisted every effort that was made to cure it; During the past year, aud especially the past month, it grew very rapidly, and was ulcerating deeply into the substance of the nose, anu fearing that it might soon reach his eye sight, and maybo his life also, and having heard so much ot the wonderful cures mat Dr. Ilartman was performing, ho placed himself under his treatment, which was commenced just ten days ugo. Tho doctor made two applications, neither or wmcu was painful, and 6trango to say, the can cer is not only cured, but the placo is en tirely healed. Such cures as this and many others that Dr. Hartman has made while in Metroit would seem almost in credible, wero it not for the fact that the persons themselves are living and can be seen, as their names and addresses are riven in full. Mrs. J. M. Jones, 73 Grand River ave nue, Detroit, had a very troublesome can cer under her arm for several years. Every physician that she consulted wanted to remove it with the knife. Being averse to having it. cut out, sho called on Dr. Hartman nt the Plankinton Hotel, who, with only two applications, removed it entirely without the knife, without any Blaster and without pain. Mrs. Jones says r. Hartman's method of curing a cancer is something wonderful. iShe knows this from positive experience, as she ouco had a cancer removed with a plaster, which gave her such intenso pain and suffering that sho thinks she had never entirely re covered from the depression caused by the plaster. Mrs, Jones says she would ad vise all persons afflicted with cancers of any kind to always visit Dr. Hartman be fore trying either a plaster or a knife. Mrs Sarah Dicker, of 409 Francis street, Jackson, Mich., had a cancer on the nose for eight years. Sho had done everything that her doctors could prescribe to remove it, from cancer plasters to caustics ot vari ous kinds, but all were utter failures. She finally placed herself under D. Hartman's treatment, and the consequence is that her nose is rapidly healing, and will soon be perfectly well. Miss Margaret Casey, 319 Wabash ave nue, had a cancer, on her upper eyelid as large as a hazel nut, and as hard, too. It had been troubling her for three years. Dr. Ilartman removed it in a minute, and now it is quite well. Cross Eyes Straightened. Mrs. B. V. Woodward, of Pontiac, Mich., had a stroko of paralysis two years ago. All the muscles of her eyes wero paralyzed except the two internal recti muscles, which drew the eyes toward the nose and back toward the back part of tho eyes. They were firmly fixed, and she found it impossible to turn them in the least outward. This gavo her a most unfortunate appearance, and rendered her vision almost; useless, as sho looked more backward than forward. No oculist could bo found that would undertake to do anything for her. She felt, however, that if anyone could do anything for her Dr. Hartman could, so sho called on him at the Plankinton Hotel in De troit. He at once said he could turn tho eyes to the front and hold them there, and that eventually she could turn them in every direction again. Hartman operated on them, and now they are as straight as ever, and if ever a patient was pleased with her physician she is the one most pleased. Airs. John Bradeu's daughter, of 228 Mt. Klliolt street, Detroit, a beautiful young lass of ten summers, had cross eyes nearly all her life, and not only sho herself desired it, but both her parents as well felt it their duty to take her to Dr. Hart man and have them straightened, which they did, and a happier young lady and parents never lived. Miss H.ster Wright, of the Michi gan Exchange, Detroit, had conver gent strabismus nearly all her life. Dr. Hartman straightened her eyes in less than half a minuto and with out the least pain. A faco already beaming with beauty was made most beantifuljand her heart most happy. Mr. Charles A. llunzinger, of 242 East Winder street, Detroit, had his eyes turned outwards six years ago, by an accident. It was a great mis fortune to him as it caused him con stantly to lookn two directions. Dr. Ilartman operated on Dotn eyes, and now they are perfectly strait ht. Miss Anna Stingman, of Dundee, Mich., was cross-eyed all her life. A half a minute with Dr. Hartman and they were straight and natural. To say she is pleased and appearance greatly improved is putting it mildly. Miss Kate E. Cronenworto, 588 Fort street. Detroit, whose eyes were turned apart outwards, called on Dr Hartman and in half a minute they were straight and her heart tilad- dened. Mr. Edwaad Hooker, teacher in one of tho Nchools of Alpena, Mich., had his eyes turned outward, diver cent strabismus, all his life. Ho call ed on Dr- Hartman at tho Plankin ton Hotel in Detroit tho other day, and had that surgeon operate upon them, and in an instant they were straight and perfect. Mr. Hedker is a gentleman of intelligence and know how to appreciate tho doctor lor his slcill and expertness. Mr. Jacob Griffin, of Elmer City, Sanilao county, Mich., had been troubled with cross-eves (convergent strabismus) for thirty -ft vo years. Dr Hartman straightened the eyes in less than a minute, and that without tho least particle of pain. Mr. Griffin had another trouble in his other eyo that came from' a slight accident some years ago, which caused a film of thin skin (pterygium) to grow over his eye, and would have event ually made him blind. Dr. Hartman removed tho pterygium also. Mrs. Mary Ampers?, 80 Pleasant avenue, Detroit, Michigan, had her eyes turned outwards (divergent strabismus) for forty two-years, giv ing her a strange appearance. Dr. Hartman operated on them both in less than a minute, and, without pain both eyes were as straight as any one's. Mrs. James McCoy's daughter, of Porter street, a little lass of twelve summers, had the misfortune of hav ing her eyes crossed ever since she was two years old.1 She went to Dr. Hartman, at the Plankinton hotel,and had them straightened. Mr. W. Anderson, 690 Twenty fourth street, Detroit, was cross eyed from his youth. Six years ago, he wenttothefprincipal oculist of Pitts burgh, Pa., and had his eye operated on, but unfortunately the operation turned the eyo too far in the opposite direction, giving him an outward squint, which mado him look much worse than before tho operation and almost made his eyo blind. He went back to the same oculist to have the mistake corrected, but the doctor told him he was sorry to say it, but the truth was now that it was too late, as no operation conld ever bring it to its right place. Yesterday . he called on Dr. Ilartman, who told him ho could bring it to its natural posi tion by a double operation and a lig ature, and make it perfect. He told tho doctor to go ahead, which he did, and m two minutes, without pain, the eye was perfectly straight. Mr. Anderson said the Pittsburg oculist worked at his eye at least half an hour, and the pain was terri ble, while Dr. Hartman's operation was perfectly painless. Mr. Ander son is delighted, and invites all doubters to call nt his house, 696 Twenty-fourth street, Detroit. Mr. Frank Brockmiller, 500 Ma comb street, Detroit, Mich., has been suffering from convergent strabismus (cross eyes) nearly all his life, and as a consequence his sight becamo much impaired. Dr. Hartman operated on them without the least pain, and, to use his own words, "they were straightened before I was aware of it." His appearance as well as his sight is greatly improved. Miss S.E.Nixon, 54 Stimson street, Detroit, was greatly disfigured bv an eye that turned upwards towards the nose. The sieht of the eye, too, was greatly unpaired. Dr. Ilartman ope rated on it and in less than .half a minuto it was perfectly straight and sight much improved. She was de lighted. And well she might be : than now there never was a prettier face. Mr. S. E. Mctcall, of Pike, Wis., had a crooked eye, strabismus, nearly all his life, which greatly disfigured his facial appearance, and caused him for that; reason to be anxious to have the deformity corrected. Dr. Hartman operated on the eye, which is now as straight as any eye that was never crossed, and he Is pleased bevond measure. Master Fred Brockmiller, (brother of Mr. Frank Brockmiller) of 506 Ma comb street, Detroit, also had a squint eye turned to the inner corner toward the hose. After he bad seen his big brother's eye straightened he took courage and had Doctor Ilartman operate on his eye also. It did not take quite half a minute, but while it did last the young man sat as still and brave as a soldier. A happier boy never lived. Mr. Alexander Frazier, a Wood ward avenue car-driver, whose resi dence is 1355 "Woodward avenue, was born with hypermetropic eyes, and not wearing glasses, as he should have done from his youth, both eyes alter. nately turned inward, which not only mtrred his appearance, but it also im paired his sight. Dr. Ilartman ope rated on one eye, which will correct the deformity of both eyes without an operation on the other one. Sure it is that the improvement to his sight, as well as to his appearance, is wonderful. Mr. Clark Pierce, 75 years of age, of South Haven Mich. His eyes were crossed, Dr. Ilartman straightened them in half a minute. His ter ducts were closed. Dr. Hartman opened then and now the tears no longer flow over bis cheeks. Mr. Frank Brown, of Williamston, Mich., had convergent strablsum, that is, the eyes were turned inward toward the noae. I hey had been 'in that conditlou since lie whh 11 ihm child. Pr. Hurt nun ope n led 011 I hem in his usual skillful manner, and now they uro as straight as an yon s eyim. Mrs. 8. Ilumtnway, of Cook avenue, near woouwurd avenue toll jrate. Detroit. Mich., has h:id quite an experience with cross eyes. Wiieu quite u small girl her rignt eyeimu turned inward toward tho inward corner of the eye, which gave her n very unprepossessing appearance. Her parents were exceedingly anxious to have the deformity corrected, and took grcU pains to inquire for the best oculist in America. Not being ablo to judge of quatincuuons themselves they siiUmitted tne matter lo their family physician, who, after caretuJ inquiry, told them that Dr. was unquestionably as eood, if not the best in the country. (She gave tho name of the oculist to Dr. liarlman, tmt as he makes it a point never to reflect on tho professional character or qualitlcal ions of any physician or surgeon unless first assailed by them, ho does not not give the name.)' This celebrated oculist operated on her eye, hut the operation proved 10 be an utter failure, as it turned the eyeii.ill outwara toward tho outer corner of the eye, where it remained asrirmly as if she had been born so. After a time she re turned to him to hiivo it corrected. He told lier'l": wis sorry, but that It was im possible to ever mako it any better, and thus it rem lined for more than twenty years. A few weeks a?o sho came to Dr. Ilart man, who, alter an examination, told her that he could make it as perfect as any eye by performing a double operarion. This was an agreeable surprise to Mrs. Heminway, and 6ho lad him operate at once, and now she has A3 perfect a pair of eyes as any lady could desire. No one could bo more gtateful than she for what Dr. II ir I man has done for her. Miss Florence Itobinson, of Bellevue, Mich., had cross eyes fiom infancy. About one year ago she had them operat ed upon by ono of the best oculists In in Detroit, but the operation was unfortu nately a failure, as the eyes were very far from straight. She was greatly mortified at the failure, and was not satisfied to let them go so if there was any possible chance of having the deformity corrected. She culled on Dr. Ilartmnn at tho Plank inton Hotel In Detroit, who mado them perfectly straight by performing an opera lion of his own, which requires great care and skill. Tho operation was a grand" suc cess, and, to uso her own language, nothing could be more satisfactory. Mr. Edward Vouvllla. of Mead, Mich., whose eyes had been crossed for many years, though calling on Dr. Uarlmaii, he seemed to bo very much afraid to have his eyes operated upon, but finally he con cluded to have it done, and in a half a minute they were made perfectly straight. He lelurncd home the same day, and nothing was heard from him until to-day, when Mrs. Maria Craudall. of Mead, Mtch came to Dr. Ilartman to have a pterygium removed from her eye, which he did in h minute. When taking her leave she inad vertently remarked that she had seen Mr. Vouvilla a day or so ago to ascertain what was the result of Dr. Hartman's operation on his eye, and she lound it was so perfect and satisfactory in every particular that she at once decided to call upon the doctor and have her eves operated upon also. Mr. James McBride, of Midland', Mich., had cross eyes from infancy, which great ly marred his appearance and more or less affected his sight. Ho called on Dr. Hart mau while practicing in Detroit to ascer tain if anything could be done to improve them. Dr. Hartman informed him that his eyes could bo mado straight without the least doubt, after which Mr. MclJrMe was anxious to have him proceed at once, which he cheerfully did, and in less than half a minute the eves wero as straight as any other person's. The . improvement which be made in the young man s appear ance was really surprising. Ho said he would not havo his eyesjfas they were before if he had to go a thousand miles to sec Dr, Hartman. Mr. John Kiddle, of 201 Fourth street. Detroit, whose eyes had been crossed for more than twenty-three years, called on Dr. Hartman while in Detroit simply to consult him, as he had often consulted oculists, but he had never had sullicicnt confidence inspired to have them operated upon, But us soon as Dr. Ilartman told him that he could certainly make his eyes straight he had implicit confidence in what he said, and had him operate on them at once. His eyes are now perfectly straight, and a moro genuinely grateful nod happy man cannot be found any where. Mr. F. C. Phillips, of Flint, Mich., had divergent strabismus, that is, his eyes wero turned outward instead of inward. Dr. Hartman straightened them in less than ono minute. Films. Mr. Clarence Conlisk, of La Salle, Mich., had two pterygiums,one grow ing over each eye. They were quite thick and fleshy. Dr. Ilartman ope rated and removed them, and now his eyes are clear and he can see as well as ever. But for the operation he would certainly have lost the sight of both eyes, and once totally blind from this disease no operation can give sight. , The following are cases treated from Michigan over a year ago, to show that Dr. Hartman's operations and treatment are permanent: Mr. Charles Hendricks, of Bayfield, Wis., whose eyes were turned out ward, also called on Dr. Ilartman about a year ago. Mr. Hendricks says, under date of Au ust 22, 1889: " Tour operation on my eyes was en tirely satisfactory, and th operation was performed in a most skillful man ner. No one seeing my eyes now would for a moment suppose that they had ever been turned apart." B. B. Hart, of Watersmeet, Mich., whose 1 4-year-old son had cross eyes since an infant, submitted his eyes to the great skill of Dr. Ilartman about a year ago. Mr. Hart says under date of August 29, 1889: My son's eyes are all right; you could not tell that they were ever disfigured. My son's eyes are strong and beautiful; we are wonderfully pleased with the operation." Mr. Henry Kreuger, of Marquette, Mich., who, too, bad his eyes straight ened a year age they had been cross ed for some twenty years says, under date of August 24, 1889: S. B, Hartman, M. D.Dbah Sin: I see by a Detroit Sunday paper that you are stopping in Detroit, and that you are making cross eves straight by the wholsale there. When you ope rated on me you remember that I was much afraid that they would get crook ed again or that the operation would be followed by a stare; but now, a year having elapsed since the opera tiou, I am happy to say my eyes are still perfectly straight and there is no stare at all. The sight of the weak one is as strong now as in the strong eye, I am very much pleased with your operation and its result. I would not for all the world have it again as it was. I had no trouble at all with it after the operation and in two weeks if. wa as clear as ever. I mostheartilv advise all persons with crooked eyes to go to yaa and have them straightened. One nunared donas to get rid ot such an unsightly defect to one's looks is mining, lours truly, Hrnby Kreuger. Catarrhal Deafness, D. Hartman Deab Sin : The noises in my ears, drums beating. crickets chirping, distant waterfalls, have all left me. II. Kirtland. '' Petoskey, Mich. S. B. Hartman. M. D. Dear Sir: I can hear the watch tick ten inches from my left ear and four feet from my right quite distinctly. Your medicine is helping me wonderfully. c. bHELDKN, Hager Mich. Club Feet. Mr. Blaise Goetchy, of Hancock, Mich'., brought his little daughter to Dr. Hartman about a year ago. Her two feet were turned inwards so that she walked on her outside aknkles, with the soles of the feet and toes turned inward and backwards club feet. Dr. Hartman at once ordered a set of braces which in six months turned the feet and toes beautifully outwards, and as straight as any feet. He then ordered and sent them an other set that she is wearing now. These are raising the toes and bring ing down the heels, which will soon make the feet perfect. Mr. Goetchy says: " We are very much pleased with Dr. Hartman s treatment. Chamuion, Mich., August 24, 1889. Dr.S. 13. Hartman Dear Friend: Seeing that you are in Detroit, it oc curred to me that people having de formed and lame children would doubtless like to know the result of your treatment in cases of that kind. My 12 year-old daughter had club foot for many years, caused, doubtless, from paralysis when an infant. We hadjtried every means that the doc tors prescribed, but nothing did her any good whatever. When you were on your last summer's pleasure tour to the north I took her to you. You applied an apparatus to her foot, and now it is turned outward as far as it should be, and is as straight as any foot. In fact, it has been so for sev eral months back, when you sent us another appliance to elevate the toes and bring the heel down We are very much pleased with your treat ment, and can recommend you heart- ily4in the treatment of cripples. Yours truly, li,D. Uerry. Crooked Legs. I had chronic inflamation of the knee joint. My leg, was drawn up so that 1 could not get my toes within twelve inches of the floor. I was treated for one month by Dr. Ilart man, and my leg is perfectly straight and all soreness of the joints gone. Charles Spauldino, Grand Rapids, Mich. Hip Diseases. Miss Minnie Heckelhacker, of Iron Mountain, Mich., met Dr. Hartman a year ago while on his way to Lnke Superior. She had been crippled for quite a long time from hip disease. Her leg could not be brought back into line with the healthy limb except by bending her back forward very much. It was also much shorter than the well one. Dr. Ilartman furnish ed her an appliance that corrected this misfortune to a very great ex tent, so that she now walks very much better. Stammering. Dr. S. B. - Hartman Mr Dear Benefactor: I 'am happy to inform you that your one hour's instruction has enabled me to talk perfectly, and the only thing I can compare my feelings to is one who has long been in prison and was suddenly released. You can never know how grateful I feel toward'you. With heartfelt thanks, Iam yours, most sincerely, CJZRO LiULL, East Manville, Ottowa Co., Mich. Da. S. B. Hartman Dear Sir : Your method for curing stammering and stuttering is Infallible. I. have talked perfectly ever since your short instruction. I am the wonder tf all my friends, and all I can say is, God bless you. Sincerely yours, Geo. Wagner, St. Johns, Mich. Chronic Rlienmatlftm.

As soon as tho first yellow tint be gins to show on the oats the village beman r.f tho Borderland thinks it time his bkeps were away to tho moor land, for then the flower harvest is al most over, end tho heather is coming' into bloom. lie has been making pre parations for months in anticipation of an event of importance to his pock et and associated in his mind with mystery and romance. A few bee keeper! are to fortunately placed that they can convey, the sleeps by train, ana it was once common to employ donkeys. Tho long cart borrowed from n neighboring- farmer is now most generally used. It is brought down after dark, when the bees, alter tho completion of their day's work, have retired for the' night, and the owner has foiled their egress with a piece of perforated tin. Where a number of villagers havo each a hive or two they combine to employ sev eral carts, arid the scene before de parture is very animated. When all is ready the procession moves off alonjr the dark road, ren dered darker by the elms on either . side, but the villagers let it be as lato as possible for tho sake of coolness, and also tuat day may break before they come to the path perilous among tho hills. At dawn tho summer an gler, as ho is casting his first llyou tho hill stream, and wondering as ho does so whether rain or sunshine is portended by the night cap on the hill nnd tho ribbons of mist waving above the pine tree, will catch a view of tho carts slowly rumbling along a wheel track midway between the woody hlope and tho water. Men and horses all look tired and draggled, but their journey is well nigh at an end. A few miles moro and the welcome saluta tion of tho shy dogs in the glen which see strangers so seldom will announce tho end, of their labors. In a very' brief space of time the hives cro placccl on their stands within a disused sheep fold, and tho bees aro let out. After ono sweep round, in which they seem to take their hearings, the industrious and business like insects settle down to wprk, and within an incredibly short space of time they may be seen returning with their bur dens. It is usual to pay tho shepherd a small sum half a crown or so to keep an eyo on tho sleeps, and I have counted from COO to 1,000 under one man's charge. The field of heather, extending over many thousand acres, is visited by the convoy, and old hands will tell at ouco by tho very huo of it if thero is any honey ; if tho night has been dewy, however, and the morning- balmy, one's boots are whitened with pollen whilo walking through it. On such a day the stream of bees from the fold to tho heath is so largo and continuous as almost to darken the air; and so intent ou their work are they, that, like men in a hurry, they will hustle against any obstacle, with this difference, how ever, that ho who happens to be the obstacle is suro to be stung;. Yet it requires all their industry, , for tho harvest is a very brief ono. When the autumnal winds are driv ing before them the first shower of withered leaves; when tho harvest wages havo been paid and the kirn dance held; when the children are be- ginning1 to look for' blackberry and azel nut, the beekeepers will come back for their hives. Gloomily they will travel homo in mist and rain if the season has been cold and the skeps aro empty; but far other will they fare if the season has been good, and twenty pound tops are common, whilo thero aro top swarms that will turn the scale at forty. Scots Observer. Making Turkish Hues. . An exact reproduction of how Turk ish rugs aro made in the east in given in a show window on Broadway, near Twenty-second street. A genuine Turk attired in a purple tunic reaching to his feet, and tied about tho waist with a gai dy sash, with his head encased in a maroon fez, is giving the exhibi tion. Tho loom on which he works is composed of two uprights of un dressed wood. Between these uprights at top and bottom run two rollers at right angles. Over these rollers is stretched a network of cord. Two smaller sticks aro introduced between the interstices of the network, one . half way down and the other a few inches above the lower roller, which serve to keep the network taut and also act as a guido for the ye. The operator sits, tailor fashion, on a Turk isn rug, and within his reach are skeins of worsted of various colors. Threo or four strands about three inches long aro taken at a time, Theso are . twisted about a single cord, tied and then cut off to make the requisite length of the fur of the rug. The next cord is similarly treated and so on until tho width of tho rug is completed. The worker carries the design in his head, and produces his patterns by tho use of different colored worsteds. Tho operation is a very slow one, and a skillful worker cannot accomplish moro than two inches on a rug of or dinary width in a day. New York Evening Sun. Attacked by Squirrel. A little son of Charles Sumner, not quite 2 years of age, while out with his mother and sister in close vicinity to their home was attacked by a largo gray squirrel. The mother attempted to scare him away, but instead of run ning off, the animal climbed up the littlo boy's dress to his face and bit and scratched in many places, making the child scream with fright and .'pain. Tho rhih fell to the round, hnt tht squirrel still held on, and the mother was compelled to use considerable force to remove him from the child, receiving herself some severe bites. The squirrel was afterward shot. Uanton (Mass.; uor. uoston Herald. j
