not, it forcibly exhibits what most peo-
pie call the "instinct" of bees. In a
hot dry valley i'll New South Wales the
bees suffered last year from long con-
tinued drought. This year says con-
temporary of that colony, the wonder
full little fellows have made provision
against another like trouble by filling
large number of external cells in each

and the accused who pleads drunkenness
in extenuation will find that it adds to
the gravity of his offense.

EATING IN THE WEST INDIES. Strange
as it may seem at first sight, everybody In
the West Indies eats very large meals.
The climate is so hot that you must take
food freely to make up for losses, and the
appetite has to be stimulated by great
variety of dishes, as well as by the
copious use Of those very insidious cap
sicums, and the still more delicious little
red and yellow bird-peppers. A few of
these tempting fruits are placed in salt
cellars at every meal, and with the bright
tropical flowers which invarisbly garnish
the table in pretty specimen vases, they
give general air of pleasant esthetic re-
finement to the whole arrangements.
Breakfast is a really solid and substantial
repast, usually put off till half. past 10 or
IL o'clock, the pangs of pressing hunger
being stilled before the early morning can
ter BY cup of coffee in the bedroom.
With it sometimes comes 3 cassava-cake,
one of the best Jamaica institutions, made
by the negro villagers from the roughly
scraped meal of the arrowroot plant. This
meal is rolled into thin paste, and then
baked hard and dry into round cakes,
about the thickness of Scotch oat-
meal hammock, but much more delicate in
taste Belgravia.
