Bees gorge themselves with honey, then
hang themselves up In festoons or curtains
to the hive and remain quiescent for hours.
After time wax scales appear forced out
from the wax pockets. The bees remove
these scales with their natural forceps,
carry the wax to the mouth and chew IL
for time, thus changing 1t chemically.
Thus 1t may DO seen that waxmaking is a
great expense to the colony, for It costs
not only the time of the workers, but &c Is
estimated that 81 pounds of honey are re-
CURED to make one pound of wax.-Chi-

GOMEZ AND sOOVEL.
An Incident Which Reveals Characteristic
Traits OF Both Men.

Traits of Both Men.
Mr.. Scovel, who made the invasion with
Gomez and saw more of him than any 9TH
or correspondent, played part in a scene
that opens another side of Gomez oharac-
ter 1t was In the days of doubt, and
Gomez, probably under great pressure,
gave loose rein TO his always fiery temper
Scovel had won the confidence of both
the general and his staff. He heard the
whisperings about the campfires and saw
the sullen looks. One day Scovel wrote
letter TO his paper. 1t recounted in glow
ing colors the successes of the march and
the hopes of the Instruction. He closed
somewhat as follows:
"The success of Cuban arms depends
upon the unity and corporation of the
rebel forces The temper of the commander
in chief has lately become SO uncontrol-
liable as to endanger good feeling among
the officers and act as a disorganizing ele-
ment. But surely the old commander,
who has given the best years of his life to
the Cuban cause, will restrain himself In
time" e.
Scovel handed this letter to the inter-
prefer to translate aloud to the commander
In chief and sat down near by, nerviDg
himself for hurricane. At the closing
passage the old general, whom no Cuban
had ever dared criticise to his face, became
aspen with rage. He listened with every
muscle taut, while the interpreter hesitat-
ed, mouthed and stammered over the clos
ing lines.
There was q moment of silence. Then
Gomez arose. He went over to where
.Scovel still sat, put one arm over his
shoulder and patted him, while moisture
welled under his spectacles and one tear
slid down his furrowed cheeks to the white
mustache below. Next morning before
marching Gomez ordered an assembly, and
as publicly as he had reprimanded others
he apologized to his officers in the presence
of all the forces. Flints March
ing With Gomez"

Anirnnls "LOOkn Questions.

Unlike children, animals do not ask
questions. They only ''look" them.
and though they constantly and
anxiously inquire what is TO be done,
how it is to be done and the exact
wishes of their masters, and occasion
ally even of other animals, the inquiry
is made by the eye and attitude. A
terrier, for instance, can almost trans
form his whole body into an animated
note of interrogation.
OF the two remaining forms of
speech-statement and request-the
animals make very large use, but en-
ploy the latter in far greater degree
than the former. They use sounds for
request, not only in particular casesin
which they desire something to be
done for them, but also in great
number of cases in which the request
is form of warning-"Comel" "Be
CAREFUL" 'Look oat!" "Go aheadw
"Helpw The speech which indicates
danger is sufficiently differentiated.
Birds, for instance, have separate
notes of warning to indicate whether
the danger is in the form of hawk or
cat, or of a man. If a hawk, cat, or
owl is on the move, the birds, espe.
cially blackbirds, always utter a chat
tering note, constantly repeated, and
chickens have special sound to indi-
cate the presence of hawk. But
when disturbed by man the blackbirds
have quite different sound of alarm
and the chickens also. Animals on
the march are usually silent; but the
hamadryad balloons use several words
of command; and the cries of cranes
and geese when flying in ordered
focks are very possibly signals or or

A BALLADE OF LOVE AND THE TIDES.

Over the sea my sweetheart sails,
Swept hither and yon by the varied gales.
Over the sea my sweetheart rides,
Tru sting her all to the changeful tides,
oh, danger and death be blind 20 her!
oh, waters and winds, be kind to herl
Bring all good things destined to her
As over the sea she sails.
Over life's sea my sweetheart rides,
And ever my spirit with her abides.
Over life's sea my sweetheart sails,
And never my prayer for her safety fails.
May sorrow and shame be blind to her!
May all good things be kind to her!
And gladness he ever destined to her,
As over life's sea she rides.
Over the seas my sweetheart sails,
And Gods love tempers the varied gales.
Over the sea my sweetheart rides,
Gods finger restraints the changeful tides.
Since the heavenly love is not blind to
her
Must all good things be kind to her,
And gladness be ever destined to her,
As over the seas she sails.

The Philippine archipelago includes
nearly 600 islands, of which, however,
only thirteen are OF considerable size.
The largest of these, Luzon, has an
area of 10000 square miles, which is
nearly as large as that of Virginia.
Manila, the capital, has population
of 3O0,O 900 and a large amount Of
wealth. Its trade in sugar, tobacco
and hemp is very large. The second
island of the group in size is Nun.
danao, with an area of $1,000 square
miles. The total area of the Philip
pines is about $50, 200 square miles,
or more than three times the area of
Cuba. The total population is fully
5000, 900 and is badly mixed. There
is as great variety of religion as of
blood. There are Mohammedans,
Buddhists, Shintoists and few Chris
tians. Though Spain has possessed
these islands long time comparative
ly few Spaniards live there. The
natives hate the Spaniards heartily,
and in some of the islands the life Of
a Spaniard is not safe. Instructions
have been even more frequent in the
Philippines than in Cuba. In fact
there has for century past hardly
been a time when there was not re-
volt in some of the islands.

1t is very proper that indecent books
should be excluded from public IL
braries, and for that matter from pri-
vate ones also; but touching the
former the wrong means are used to
accomplish the end desired Instead
of simply excluding the Objectionable
volume, without comment or discus
sion, a set of high sounding resolu-
tions must be adopted by the Library
Board and published to the world.
Curiosity is an inherent attribute of
human nature, consequently the pub
lie generally. who perhaps would
never entertain a thought touching
the book, are aroused to hunt it up,
and by personal examination satisfy
themselves as to the correctness of
the Judgment of the board Mr.. Ed
ward Everett Hale sums up the whole
matter in nutshell when he says:
''Nobody is so happy as the nasty
publisher Of nasty book if the direc
tor of a public library is foolish
enough to say it is nasty" Hereafter,
suggests the st. Louis Star, let Lii.
brary Boards simply exclude the book
without comment, and the end will be
accomplished without bestowing upon
the publisher class of advertising
that money cannot buy.
