From the time that the bees are removed from winter quarters until the main flow, a large amount of brood rearing yhould be encourag- ed. says A. H. W. Birch, Apiarist of the Experimental Farms Branch. If, however, there be a dearth of nectar between fruit bloom and the main flow, feeding to stimulate brood rear- ing will be necessary. See that the queen has ample room in which to lay; if extra room is needed, a second brood chamber is given above. As the flow may come with a rush, enough supers should be on hand to take care of the crop. It is usual to allow three deep supers, or their equivalent, to each colony but this will vary with location. Indications of the commencement of the flow may be recognized at the hive entrance in the greater ac- tivity of the bees and in their heavy appearance when alighting. Inside the hive are further indications in the presence of white wax and new honey shining in the cells. Another good indication, and an accurate one, is a colony on scales. The object of all manipulations is —to promote contentment among the bees, which is the keynote in pre- venting swarming, and to keep the workers together in a working mood. To promote contentment, ventila- tion is given when necessary by rais- ing the hive on one inch blocks which are placed between it and the bottom. Upward ventilation may be given by turning back two inches of the quilt in front and raising the cover there with a one inch block of wood. Make examinations every 9 or 10 days to provide room for storing and to head off swarm preparations. In supering, before giving the first super the queen is put in the lower brood chamber with an excluder above; if the weather is warm so that there will be no chilling of brood. the honey super is placed next with the upper brood chamber on top; otherwise place the up ,er brood chamber next with super on top. When a super is about one-third full, which can be judged by its weight, it is raised up and another one is placed between it and the brood chamber. Supers should be left on till all honey is cap- ped over or at least two thirds of it is; tris is very important, as uncap- ped honey is unripe. In examing, if eggs are found in queen cells, destroy them and make a note of it on the record card of the colony. On the next examination, should eggs in queen cells again be found or larvae in queen cells, the colony should be immediately treated for swarming. One of the methods of treatment, and a very good one, is that in which the cells are destroyed aria the queen removed. (The queen and one frame of the brood being us- ed to form a nucleus.) Nine days later all .queen cells are again de- stroyed and' a Laying queen given. It is advisable always to have in the apiary for emergencies spare young queens whether they be home reared or imported. Whatever method of control is used the object is not to divide the colony. If a natural swarm emerges, hive it on the old stand, leaving the parent colony alongside for seven days that its field bees may strengthen the swarm when it is removed. o 9.9 , Ottawa, Ont.—The oldest Canadian historical document is among the other treasures which Dr. A. G. Doughty, Canadian archivist, will bring back to the Dominion from England with him this month. Its date is 1542 and it was signed by de Roberval at Fort France. It is the pardon of a man accused of murder and will easily claim the pride of chronologeial place in Canada's re- cords, bringing them back, as it does, to the time of Jacques Cartier. SUNDAY AFTERNOON (By Isabel Hamilton, Goderich, Ont.) If I were a voice—a persuasive voice, That could travel the wide world through, I would fly on the beams of the morn- ing light And speak to men with a gentle might, And tell them to be true. I'd fly, I'd fly o'er land and sea, Wherever a human heart night be, Telling a tale, or singing a song, In praise of the Right—in blame of the Wrong. If I were a voice—an immortal voice, I'd speak in the people's ear; And, whenever they shouted, "Lib- erty," Without deserving to be free, I'd make their error clear. Fd fly, I'd fly on the wings of day, Rebuking wrong on my world-wide way, And making ail the earth rejoice--- If 1 were a voice—an immortal voice. (Charles Mackay).

We learn from the first chapter of Luke that John's birth was foretold by the angel Gabriel; that he was the sots of Zacharias and his wife Elizabeth; that the name, John. was given to the child by his parents in accordance with a divine command, and in spite of the strong objectio'r of 1:insfolk and neighbors. We are not told how his boyhood and early manhood were spent other• than that "the hand of the Lord was upon him" (v. 111) "and the child grew and, waxed strong in spirit" (v. 80). A tinie must have come, however, when he felt he must break away from the life in his father, the priest's home. .As a priest's son his birthright entitled hint to follow in his father's footsteps and enter upon the duties of the priestly office; hut he broke awa, from this and went forth to a life of solitude to be trans- formed into a prophet mightier than any of Old Te-tantent times., While in the wilderness, separated from his fellows, he e'ame into close fellow- ship with his God. Locusts and wild honey were his food, and he was clothed with a •loose cloak of woven camel's hair bound about by a leather girdle. How long he remained there is unknown but at last the day came for his showing unto Israel. Chapter 3 : 1-3. We have here a statement of the exact time at which John began his public ministery ushering in a new dispensation, It was in the reign of the Roman Emperor, Tiberius Caesar, to whom that nation that had been such. It was that part of the Holy Land which the children of Israel took possession of first, when they entered under the leadership of Jos- hua. It was fitting that the gospel banner should first be unfurled in that same part of the promised land. He came proclaiming a new baptism. For the origin of baptism we have to go back to the Mosiac law. In Israel washings were the means appointed for the restoring of the person who had incurred ceremonial deflilement, to his place among the worshipping congregation. If the Jew needed cleansing to fit him to perform his religious duties. much more neces- HELP FOR YOUNG WOMEN Viking, Alta.—"From the time I was 15 years old I would get such sick feel- ings in the lower part of my abdomen, followed by cramps and vomiting.

Lord came to Johft shoe ing are that whom the Lord fits for special work he ,can and does bring out of most obscure _places; and this is but one of many 1natanees of tide kind recorded in the Scripturee. John was called irate a particular 616- trict to do a special work. "Re came into all the country round Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;" (verse 8) of Israel, and placed himself under the 'wings of the Divine Majesty, and take the yoke of the law upon him voluptary circumcision, baptism 'and obation are required." Long before the time of John, pro- phets had seen that for a true cleans- ing the nation must look to the Mes- sianic days when God should "open a fountain for sin a d uncleanness sprinkling His people With clean wa- ter, and putting a new heart and a new spirit within them." It was John's privilege 'to declare that the Messianic days were near at hand and that he had come to prepare the way for His coming. 'Verses 4-6. This passage was taken from Isa. 4 p0.3. The laago was such as was familiar to the Jews and such as they would easily understand. "In the vast deserts that Iay between Babylon and Judea, he is represented as lifting up his voice, and with au- thority, commanding a public road to be made for the return of the captive Jews, with the Lord as their deliverer Prepare his ways, make them straight, says ha; or, as Isaiah adds, Let the valleys be exalted, or filled up, and' the hills be levelled, sed a straight, level highway be pre- pared, that they may march with ease and safety. As applied to John it means, that he was sent to remove obstructions, and to prepare the peo- ple for the coming of the Messiah." (B) . WhenarnesJohn came preaching he bap- tized those who professed repent- ance, in order to impress them with the idea that they must be re -born before they could enter the kingdom. The essence of John's preaching, the text of all his sermons was: ®Re- pent ye, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand," He chose no smooth - sounding words, but, with loud voice, he called upon the multitude that came from Jerusalem and from Gal- ilee, civilians and soldiers, Phari- sees and Sadducees alike, to turn from their evil ways; and then when many of them presented themselves for baptism he expressed his aston- ishment that sinners so hardened and so hypocritical as they were, should have been induced to flee froth com- ing wrath—"O generation of vip- ers" (verses 7-9). To the Jewisa mind it was a most astonishing thing that they should be spoken to in such terms. According to the com- mon belief all Israel would have a place in the Messiah's kingdom as descendants of Abraham. But John preached a different doctrine; being a son of Abraham would count for nothing; for of the very stones of tlfe Jordan God could raise up children to Abraham. Privileges of birth would avail them nothing if there was not righteousness of life. Luke 7 : 24-28. Herod had thrown John the Bap- tist into prison on account of John having reproved him for marrying };is brother Philip's wife. From there he sent his disciples to ask Je- sus if he were the Messiah or should they look for another. Aa an answer Jesus, in their presence, performed wonderful miracles and then told them to go back and tell John what they had seen. Turning then to the people he began to instruct them re- specting the ,true character of John. He did this by inquiring why they had gone out to hear him preach. The Jordan overflowed its banks an- nually and great quantities of reeds or cants grew on the banks of the river andthese being of a fragile nature were easily swayed by the wind. Did they think that was the sort of man John was? Next he inquired if it was the clothing he wore that attracted them? Soft clothing would not be found out in the desert; neither would any one not possessed of a hardy character, fitted to endure trials and privations and so qualified to be the forerunner of the toiling and suffering Messiah. He then in- quired if they went out to see a pro- phet. I1 so, they were correct in their judgment. Not only was he a prophet but there was none going before him who was greater than he. Isaiah had been distinguished above all others for the clearness With which he had foretold the coming of Christ. John had surpaasect_�hhim, for he lived in the time ofearjst. Jo - sus then quoted words from the pro- phet Malachi and said that prophesy was fulfilled in John. There *as not among all men a greater prophet than John the Baptist, but "lie that is least in the kingdom of heaven is ' greater than he." This no doubt meant that those who sojourned with Jesus during his three year's NAB- istry and received 'instruction from him were to be regarded as greater than the prophets who foretoldhie coming and than John who, was his heraid. WORLD MISSIONS Missionaries Forerunners of Christ When Dr. Lews entered Africa in 1871, the whole of the interior, thea practically unknown, was given oder to the forces of Savage lawlessness; It was a vast region, where cruelty, suffering,' and bloodshed prevailed unchecked, It was a country -where. the thoughts and desires of the heart were evil continually. It as only. with the advent of the C istian re ligion that the bonds oft past and the authority of their cue were broken. That spiritual powe which has redeemed as large a section'tif wayward ,humanity acted like magic upon the primitive heart of Central Africa. Before Christ the most sodden chief and his wildest 'warriors booed with a kind of instinctive reverence; and, in leas than fifty years His teaching has transformed the lend. Men still carry spears, but it is to ward off the wild beasts. The faces of the womee are free from the old sullenness and au picion, and bright with a new light. From every vil- lage the laughter of children rings out at davit] and dusk. All this is rhe result of the freedom brought to the land by the mitsionarles of Christ—the messengers of peace on earth, good will to mien. y •(Laws of Livingstonia).
