The honey bee has 1ong been a type
of the industrious worker. but there are
few people who know how much labor
the sweet hoard Of the hive represents.
Each head of clover contains about
sixty distinct flower tubes, each Of which
contains "A portion Of sugar not exceed
ing the ve-hundredth part Of a grain.
Some enthusiast who has watched
the bees movements concludes that the
probosci, AZ the insect must therefore
be inserted into five hundred clover
tubes before n grain Of sugar can be
obtained There are seven thousand
grains in a pound, and, as honey CON
tains three-fourths of its weight of dry
sugar, each pound Of honey represents
two and "a half million clover heads
sucked by bees.-YOuth's Companion.

Much Gold Used for Gliding.

Gliding OF metals and porcelain con.
suInes large amounts Of the ~precious
metal. About 1000 ounces Of fine gold
are used in Birmingham every week,
and in the StafIordshire potteries some
eve to ten thousand ounce of colo
are used per annum. Photographers
employ a great deal of this metal in the
shape of chloride of gold, or sci dor,
a compound salt used for intensifyine
or toning the Photographic image.
The production of gold leaf is a very
important industry. The product If
extensively used for gliding picture

Orators and Big Mouths.

All good orators have most abnor-
mally wide mouths. This is the direct
consequence Of their habit of using
sonorous words, and speaking with de.
liberation and correct pronunciation.
If II practices this before the glass
ope can see that the muscles in the
cheeks are stretched more than ordi-
narily, and the mouth is extended a
great deal more than in every day con
~versation. Then, too, nature has
something to do with it. A large
mouth, like a prominent nose, is a sign
of power. But all men with big mouths
are not orators. Thank heaven for
that Free Press.

SURPRISED IN A DOCTORS OFFICE.
Other Startling Things Than skeletons
Sometimes Pound In Closets.

Sometimes Pound in Closets.
A peaceful and unoffensive citizen
was seated one evening in a doctors
office in a neighboring city. He had
called on professional business. but
that had been disposed Of. and as the
doctor seemed TO be in no hurry he
fingered for "a friendly chat, although
disturbed az intervals by the suspicion
tina; perhaps the amounto Of his bill might
be gagged by the length Of the visit.
In moving about the Office looking for
some little article which he desired, the
doctor at length threw open the door
Of a cabinet which occupied the space
in the upper part of one corner Of the
room. The visitor opened his eyes in
wonder.
Ii was not a skeleton upon which
his gaze fell. Do not be alarmed, gen
tie reader. There was nothing 50 hor-
rible TO be disclosed-at least, in that
closet. No. the lights Of the chande-

CAPTAIN HOWARD ON THE OYSTER
QUEsTIoN.-The Cambridge Chron-
icle says that Capt. Thomas @. b.
Howard of the oyster navy, who
lately made a cruise of inspection
over the Chesapeake, found a heal
thy and vigorous young growth in
many places, holding out a good
prospect for three or four months
profitable work next year. Captain
stko*ard is opposed to the sale or
lease of the natural oyster rocks,
and does not deem it necessary for
the preservation of the value of the
oyster industry. He thinks, how
ever, that the time for dredging
should be considerably shortened,
for few years at least, and that il
this is done and the present culling
law is strictly enforced aud forbid
den grounds properly protected, the
oyoster beds will recuperate in a way
that will surprise those who deem
that the oysters are extinct and that
only private cultivation can restore
them. He does not see any serious
objections to leasing out the barren
grounds.
