A few evenings ago several gentlemen
were in conversation in a quiet retreat
when the subject of hunting for honey
came up and one of the party related
his experience when boy, in discover
ing colony of bees in a large tree, anG
extracting the honey. A professional
gentleman, one of the party, rather alb
stractedly here interposed a question

1t is a wonder the society for the pre-
vention of cruelty to animals never in

1t is a historical fact that woman is a
curious creature. From the time Eve
plucked the forbidden fruit down to the
present day curiosity to an inordinate
degree has been symbolic of the weaker
sex. And yet through all the dark ages
no woman was found who would admit
that she was possessed in the least de-
gree of curiosity. 1t remained for Water
bury to produce for the admiration of
the world "a woman who without blush
admitted that she and her sex were curl
Gus. 1t happened in the police court
the other day. A young woman was
telling what she knew of breach of the
peace that occurred on Bank street. 81
was in bed" she said, "but hearing the
noise, hastily dressed and went up stairs.
OF course, being woman, wssEcurious
and wanted to see what was going on "
The court smiled and the prisoner was
fined $40 and costs.

A contemporary report of the late in
church says the concluding prayer was
of twenty-five minutes duration. AS
the last pastor was settled there for
twenty years, the prayer evidently
thought he would not have another
chance for twenty years to repeat him
self. When boy at school in Pennsyl-
vania, the writer stood at the door of
a Lutheran church for fifty-five min
utes, waiting for the conclusion of the
opening prayer before entering the
church.

He is a slow man indeed who affirms
that judicious advertising does not pay.
Let the sceptic look around him, in any
city or business center, and note the
most successful business men there.
Who are they? The careful and judi.
cious advertisers invariably. 1t is when
trade lags, when things are generally
quiet, that the experienced modern ad.
vertiser gets in his work. He under.
stands thoroughly that his plan then is
to create a demand where no demand
exists. During the quiet season the
merchant has also more time to attend
to the subject.

The report of the board of compensa-

it is in order for the road board to order
the street worked without unnecessary
delay.

ITS SIZE AND SUBJECT,

The painting is but Fl l-2x25 1-2 in
ches in size. But art is not measured
by inches. Here is brief DESCRIPTION
of the picture: .5'.I q
1t represents a young man and a
maiden Pausing from their work in
in the field to listen to the tolling of the
".Angelus," themselves joining in even
ing prayer. The sun has already sunk
below the horizon. The sky is sill
luminous with the warm golden light
which gives q peculiar glowing light to
the surrounding fields. The Young
couple have been busy harvesting the
potato crop. They stand quietly in the
foreground. their figures clearly cut
against the vivid background. Their att
titudes express the devout religious SEN
timents of rustic piety. Both send in
silence feeling prayer to their Maker.

The Churchman New York; justly SAYS:
"Such picture can never lose it's

The price paid for it by the American
Association at the auction rooms in Par
is. $llO 900, has been justified by all
who have wisely examined the great
painting, while. as says
Public Opinion, ''The good, sweet and
gracious influence this painting has ex-
erted in the world is incalculable." So
great was the influence of this picture
on the Parisians, that those present at
the auction sale burst into tears when
they saw that the American bidders
would probably remove it from Franco.
