The Bee's Sting.

If We press the abdomenen Of the

the sharp, dark-colorcd instrument was

the case. The real sting is a very
slender instrument. and armed on one
edge with row Of harhs. - exactly does
the sting resemble the many-barhed ar.
row Of certain savage tribes that. If the
savages had possessed microscopes, we
should certainly have conjectured that
they borrowed the idea Of the barb from
the insect What we see with the un-
aided eye is simply the sheath Of the
sting. Many sayages poison their
arrows and spears, and here also they
have been anticipated by the insect.
But the sting is infinitely superior to
the arrow poison. No poison that has
yet been made, not even the terrible

called. can retain its strength after

venom Of the sting is never exposed to
the air at all. II is secreted by two
long, thread-like glands, not nearly so
thick as human hair. and is then re-
ceived into little bag at the base Of
the sting. When the insect uses its

\ curious fact in connection with
the land war" in Ireland il. that the
operations Of both tenants and land
lords have been sustained from outside
sources. America has contributed the
bulk of the money TO the land league.
and England has contributed the bulk
of the money to the landlords defense
association. Last year it cost $50. 900

otherwise could not have been served.
Some Of the men engaged in this work
narrowly escaped with their lives. but
they achieved what they set out to DO.
The association provided buyers at

but for this precaution. No man re-
siding in the vicinity of forced sale
for arrears OF rent could afford to even
make bid, much less 10 purchase.
The property-defense man. on the
other hand, were ready to purchase,
and 10 remove the cattle If necessary.
At first they were permitted to do so;
but, when it was found that they were
able, the farmers arranged TO have the
cattle bought in. Had it not been for
the property-defense association the
Irish landlords could not have collected
much from the tenants during the last
few years.

LADIES' DEPARTMENT.
An Interrupted wedding.

A most remarkable hitch took place
at wedding ceremony in the town of
Aastad. Mimi. which is thus described
by "A correspondent Of the st. Paul Pio-
neer-Press: A large party of friends
had assembled at the house of one Of
the towns wealthy farmers to witness
the ceremony of couple about TO be
married. The Lutheran minister was
to perform the rites, and, in accord
ance with the rules of the church
asked the groom if he was hcart-frcc.
"l es,' came the answer, when the
company were thrown into constcrna-
tion by the voice of young lady pres
ent. You lie. sir" cried she, in ac-
cents not to be mistaken. The words
acted like bombshcll thrown among
the former happy throng, and when
the minister asked for an explanation,
letters were produced to prove that she
was also engaged to the young man
and the affair looked rather critical for
the time being. The rejected sweet
heart, however, after cXpostulation,
consented to the ceremony being per
formed, if the gentleman would apollo
gize and ask to be forgiven, which hc
humbly did; but the minister had by
this time left in disgust, and trouble
again stared them in the face until
justice of the peace was found among
the invited guests, and the fond lovers
were made one according TO the laws
of Minnesota.

How Canada Got It's Name.

The origin Of the word Canada is Gu
rious enough. The Spaniards visited
that country previous to the French,
and made partial searches for gold and
silver, and finding none, they often
said among themselves "a can nadia"
(There is nothing here). The Indians.
who watched closely. learned the SEN
tence and its meaning. After the de-
parture of the Spaniards the French
arrived, and the Indians, who wanted
none of their company, and supposed
they also were Spaniards come on the
same errand. were anxious TO inform
them that their labor was lost by tarry-
rying in that country. and frequently
repeated to them the Spanish sentence
"a can NADIA" The French. who knew
as little Of Spanish as the Indians. sup.
posed this incessantly-recurring sound
was the name of the country and gave
II the name Of Canada, which 1t has
borne ever since.
