A little yellow busy bee, which had
been loafng the greater portion of the
day around the sirup bottles in a neigh

into a shaying-saloon on Common

that a small thing can cause a great

While the German proprietor Of the
Barber shop vas shaving a fat man,

bee came and buzzed around the ear
of the fat man who became nervous
and slapped at ii furiously. Then the
bee scared around in a short ci1cle,

and rest on the German BARRIERS nose,
who in turn wiped the air with both
hands in a foolish attemp. to kill TIE
annoying insect, but the bee darted
at him and he lodged behind the chair
and yelled to the shop boy. Hans,
come here right away and make de
bee 60 away" Hans obeyed instruc-
tons, and seeing the bee humming
lszily around, he opened on it with a
wet towel. and the first swSsh ne made

About this time the bee, who should
