AnImmnrfnI Orntion.

The funeral Grafton of Pericles Is
pretty nearly what was actually spo-
ken, or else it is the substance of the
speech written out in the historians
own words, says James Ford Rhodes
in The Atlantic. Its intensity of feel
ing and the fitting of it so well into the
situation Indicate it to be living con-
temDoraneous document, and at the
same time il has that universal appli-
cation which we note in so many
speeches of Shakespeare.
y few years after our civil war a
lawyer in city of the middle west
who had been selected to deliver the
Memorial day Grafton came TO friend
of his in despair because he could write
nothing hut the commonplaces about
those who had died for the Union and
for the freedom of n race which had
been uttered many times before. and
he asked for advice.
Take the funeral Grafton of Pericles
for a model was the reply. Use his
words where they will fit and dress up
the rest to suit our day"
The orator was surprised to find how
much of the Grafton could be used bod
ily and how much, with adaptation
was germane to his subject.

A certain congressman went home al

had made n night of it with some
friends. He knew that his conduct

his better half. and so, as he ascended
the steps of his modest home, he rack

lady's wrath. As he entered the hall
he saw an umbrella. Instantly IL oc'

Force of Habit.

In 1927. just after Dan Dougherty,
the Irish pugilist. fought his famous
fight with Jem Belcher. the English
fighter, on the curragh of Kildare, near
Dublin. he became involved in n con-
troversy with an unknown. The lat
ter was not a pugilist, and, not wishing
to take any advantage OF his opponent,
Dougherty consented to fight him with
pistols. The two met by appointment,
but their seconds. unknown to them.
extracted the balls from the pistols
and substituted blank cartridges. BY
the terms of the agreement between
the principals Dougherty's opponent
was to have the first shot. The natu-
raj instinct prevailed even on the duel
Ing ground. and as the fighters oppo-
nent raised his arm to fire Dougherty
elevated his right arm, as If TO ward
on blow, evidently intending to stop
the bullet from hitting him in the face.
After this who can say that fighters
are not dead game en?-Kansas City

Fool the Bees and the People.


people buy comb honey" said a
man from the country, believing that
the fact that it is sealed by the honest
little bee precludes the possibility of
fraud. The fact is that the bees of
many professional honey raisers do
nothing the livelong summer but pack
glucose into their hives from an open
barrel that is left standing close by
The bee will not search fragrant flow
ers the livelong day for a trifling
amount of pure honey when he can get
glucose. The honey men see that there
is plenty of glucose handy, and instead
of one pound of pure honey they aid
the bees in putting ten pounds of glu-
cOse On the market.
Human ingenuity has not devised q
way for making and sealing the honey
comb, or the bee would be dispensed
with altogether. In handling the glu-
cOse the bees give it a honeyish flavor,
and if you complain to the bee man
that it is not as sweet and sticky as it
should be he will tell you that it is the
early crop and that the heavy rains
make it thin.
huOW udn WHO keeps 0O nlNeS
of bees on the roof of his store in the
city, and by hustling up plenty of glu-
cose he gets enough honey out of the
buzzing slaves TO do a wholesale busi-
ness in honey. Why, his bees never
saw a flower and would shy at hon
eysuckle if they happened to come near
one. He will not even let the poor
things have a recess to get a drink of
water, but keeps a pan of fresh water
near the hives for them to drink.
