forbidding the sale of cigarettes TO
children has been had III Brooklyn.
and the offender has been compelled
TO pay a fine Of $50. This looks as
though the law was not going to be

victions VIII be required to put stop

swarm of bees with the mower a few
days ago IN his fathers grass field
below town. The bees had settled
in the grass and had already built
some nice honey combs. They got

team till finally he got the horses
stopped without any damage being
done. His father afterwards hived
the bees which seem TO be doing
well.-Mt. JOY Herald.
