The Brussels Post, 1887-8-5, Page 60 THE BRUSSELS POST HOW 4'0 BE !APPS', Keep your temper. Practioe strict temperance. Never be in an unfitting hurry, Persevere against discouragement. Rise early and be au economist of time, Never acquiesce" in immoral or pentoions opinions. Mniutaiu dignity without the ap. pearanoe of pride. Be guarded in discourse, attentive andslow to speak. Think notL•ieg in condnot unim. portant or indifferent. Manner is something with every. body, and everything with some. Preserve seif•possession, and do mot be talked out of conviction. Be punctual and ,methodical in business, alai never procraetivata. Be' not forward to assign reasons to those who have no right to ask. Oftimes the blackness which we believe to see in others is only our own shadow. Live within your income ; be ever saving; avoid as much as posstblo either borrowing or lending. WOW!'ll REMEMBERING. That the tongue is not steel yet it cuts. That cheerfulness is the weather of the heart, That sleep is tho'lest sttmulant ; a nervine safe for all to take. That cold air is not necessarily pare, nor warm air necessarily im. pure. That a cheerful face is nearly as good for an invalid as healthy weather. That there are men whose friends are more to be pitied than their enemies. That advice is like Castor oil— easy enough to give but hard enough to take. That wealth may -bring luxuries, but that luxuries do not always bring happiness. That grand temples are built of small stones, and great lives made up of trifling evente. That an open mind, an open baud, and an open heart would everywhere find an open door. That it is not enough to keep the poor in mind ; give them something to keep yon in mind. That men often preach from the house tops while the devil is crawl- ing in at the basement below. That nature is a rag merchant, who works up every shred and odd and end into new creations. That life's heroes and heroines. are those who bear their own bur. done bravely and give a helping hand to those around them. That, hasty words often rankle in the wound which injury gives, and that soft words assuage it ; forgiving euree, and forgetting takes away the soar, PRACTICAL RECEIPTS.

In sections where dark honey is gathered this month, the nice, white clover and basswood honey should be taken from the hive before it is soiled, or before it is injured by ad. mixture with the (lather. Buiee taken off in June or duly should be carefully examined, and if worms are found, the honey should be fumigat ed with sulphur. When clerk honey abounds, it is well to take the full frames out of the have and set away for winter stores, replacing thein by frames of foundation. We advise this very strongly, wheu bees eau bo.seoured in the fall from neighbors who have made a pr,ntioo of de- stroying their bees. So also where aster, goldenrod, smart weed, or other autumn flowers abound, which produce nine honey ; this can be saved, and the less salable buck- wheathoney be substituted for winter. Continue the brcod-rear ing this month, even if it shall be necessary to feed, as successful wintering depends on the care of the bees during this month and the next. If the honey harvest has closed, see that all empty cells are in the Centre of the brood, next where the queen may deposit her eggs. After the flowers have finished secreting nectar, the bees are much more dif- ficult to handle, and are more in. alined to robbery' than at any other time. Therefore, in removing box- es, be as gentle as possible, and smoke them well before opening the hive. •If any stocks are weak, build them up by inserting frames of brood from others. Keep entrance contracted as a safety "againstrob. bene. If surplus boxes are on they must be kept warm, to aid wax• working. NOW TILE AMEItIUAS-PRESIDENTS ECONOMIZED. James illontoe died in New York insolvenh. Buchanan left over $250,000 to his nephews and nieces. Martin Van Buren did not save much outof his salary, but left $800,000. Adams was poor, but by his wise, able management he sever suffered want. James K. Polk left about $10,- 000. As he had no children, Mrs. Polk received it all. Fillmore left the White House a poor man, but by a second marriage became wealthy. Pierce did not do as well. Fifty thousand dollars was his limit, with no one to inherit it. Of the earlier Presidents, Wash- ington was the wealthiest. At los death his estate was valued at $800,- 000. When Jefferson entered the White House he was a wealthy man, but be loat hie property and died insol- vent. John Tyler went to the White House a poor man, but managed to save enough out of his salary to live in comfort. President Arthur was a very high feeder, He spent a great deal of money on his table, and managed to save nothing. Andrew Jackson was counted a rich man in his day. Tho Hermit- age, which he left, to his adopted son, is now the property, of the State. President Cleveland will probably' not bo able to save more than $100,- 000 out of his whole term, if he saves that much. Mrs-, Hayes ran the financial end of the honeo during Hayes' admin. ietration, and that she is a financier is proved by the amount saved out of his salary. ' Garfield was not in office .long. enough to save much money. He left about $40,000, and gifts Mrs. Garfield has received have made her a wealthy woman. ' Madison was wealthy when he became President, and loft a hand• some estate, which Mre, Madison's eon, Payne Todd, squandered, and left her a'poor woman.

Many girls !night acquire a thorough knowledge of one of the languages, or perfect herself in music or painting, besides storing her mind with good literature, in the time which she spends before her mirror or dallying with her dressmaker: Woman has always loved to or. Lament herself, and doubtless al- ways will. The women of ancient times had their bracelets, earriuga, and orisping pins. And, judging from the pictures recently taken from the tombs, had artists to de- sign their gowns ; while we have only dressmakers to deform an.
