While in Maine last summer heard
good story that was new to me and may
nave never appeared in print. In the old
days of wild bee hunters Zeke Trask was
among the most successful in capturing
the hiveless swarms, and even after his
keen eyesight began to fail he was wont to
boast of his ability to follow toll bee"
in its flight. A toll bee is one that has
been captured and placed in little glass
box with some honey. AS soon as he gets
his load the lid of the box is opened and
the bee allowed to fly away, whereupon it
makes "bee line" for its home and the
hunter knows which direction to take TO
find the wild swarm.
Zeke had Dragged about the keeuness OF
his eyes until those who knew he was slow
ly but surely growing nearsighted were
Disguised and resolved to trap him. Jim
Onslow, a keen old fellow, arranged the
plan, and it worked to n charm. One day
Jim pretended he wanted Zeke to watch a
bee for him, and although the boaster tried
to get out of it Onslow would not accept
any excuses. Quite a party gathered to wit
ness the affair, knowing there was some
kind of joke at the bottom Of it.
When everything was ready, old Jim
said:
Watch him sharp, Zeke. Don't let him
slip We. Now" And he snapped the cover
of the box wide open, having first showed
Zeke the bee inside
In moment Zeke began whirling round
and round, rs If he was following the circle
