fue, ignited the wood work.

OF CHICAGO.

This is an independent popular month
ly magazine devoted TO health, hygiene
and preventive medicine. Each number
has forty pages, the size of Harper's
Magazine, and sixteen departments.
The paper and print are superior. making
it one of the handsomest journals pub
lished. It numbers among its contribu.
tors some of the most eminent physicians
and hygienic writer's in America Under
its several departments will be found the
best instruction in the simplest language.
The wise counsel it gives and the pre-
ventive measures it teaches are capable
of f.sparing many case of illness, end
possibly death. Invalids may gather
from its crowded pages the soundest
advice and the latest and best methods of
treatment. It is the exponent of 10 ism,
or hobby. 1t is, however, an uncom-
promising enemy to .quackery wherever
found. Such periodical is invaluable
and should be welcome visitor to every
intelligent household in the land.
The publishers of the Health Journal
are employing in each county of the
state one agent on a good salary (from
nine to twenty-five dollars week.
To obtain an agency one should ad-
dress The Peoples Health Journal Com
pany, Chicago, Illinois, and send with
their application one dollar, and the
names of five well known respectable
citizens as references In case your
application is rejected the Health Journal
will be sent to you one year in lieu of
the dollar. They have very wisely
adopted this plan to avoid trihers and
secure good responsible agents. The
publishers of the Health Journal will
send sample copies for twenty cents; none
free.

How Bees and Other Insects are Beguiled
to Garry the Love Tokens ofVegetation.
In these days of popular science it
is hardly necessary to make more than
passing reference to the part which
the bee plays in nature. In the vege-
table world it is a vital necessity that
the fertilizing pollen from the stamens
the pistils of other flowers, and the
mission of the bee is to 1nconsciously
carry the precious dust from blossom
to blossom in her search after the
tempting drop of nectar with which
the shy fowerets reward the winged
bearer of their love messages. A
wonderful and fascinating chapter in
natural history is that which treats of
the relations existing between flowers
and insects. Flowers may be divided
into two classes, those fertilized through
the action of the wind, and those in
which fertilization is effected through
the intervention of insects or like
agency. Darwin and others have
shown what interesting stratagems-
flowers of the latter class resort to in
order to secure the services of insects:
in this respect. Every little foible and
weakness of the winged visitor is pam
dered to. What is commonly called a.
flower is indeed nothing more than O.
skillfully devised trap to attract the
attention of insects, and the insure
their services toward fertilization. Our
little friend the bee is aesthetic in her
tastes, and behold the varieties of
flowers vie with each other to beguile
her attention in the display of the
most artistic blending of colors and
beauty of design. She likes sweet
scents, and the laboratory of nature is
called upon to distil the choicest per-
fumes TO humor her. But these are
but an advertisement for the nsctar
which it is the principal object of the
bee to obtain, and when she has
alghted in search of it, it is only to
find that the flowers have in many
cases devised the most exquisite little
is unconsciously compelled to effect
the object toward the fulfllment of
which they have indulged in such a
lavish expenditure of beauty and sweet
ness. 1t is all effected in the simplest
manner through the great law of
natural selection, here seen in opera
ton in its severe simplicity; for the
flowers of those plants which present
the greatest facilities for fertilization
get their seed set, and so insure the
continuance of their species, while the
unsuitable and unaccommodating
kinds remain barren and are gradually
weeded out In the babel of tongues,
and since first he found a voice, the
poet has sung of the loves and sorrows
of mankind, but nature stiQ waits for
him to interpret her heart; if he ever
learns to do so, there will be a new
song in his mouth, for he will have
