BE A GOOD BOY GOODBY!

How oft in my dreams go back to the day
When stood at old wooden gate
And started to school in full battle array,
Well armed with primer and slate,
And as the latch fell l thought myself free
And gloried, l fear, on the sly,
Till heard kind voice that whispered to me:
''Be good boy! Goodby"
E'Be good boy! Goodby! 1t seems
They have followed me all these years;
They have given form to my youehful dreams
And scattered my foolish fears;
They have stAid my feet on many brink,
Unseen by blinded eye,
For just in time would pause and think:
''Be good boy! Goodby!"
Oh, brother of mine, in the battle of life,
Just starting or nearing its close,
This motto aloft, in the midst of the strife,
Will conquer wherever it goes
Mistakes you will make, for each of us errs,
But, brother, just honestly try
To accomplish your best. In whatever occurs
''Be good boy! Goodby!"

WINGS OF THE HONEYBEE.
A Microscopic View of One OF Ma
lures Wonderful Schemes.

At a meeting Of the New York Mi
croscopical society the president of the
organization exhibited. besides other
things, the honeybee's wing, showing
the booklets by means of which the
lower of the two wings of the bee is
joined to the upper wing in flying, thus
making them practically single wing.
The upper of the two wings is about
half an inch in length, the lower little
shorter. The wings come together
where they are joined to the body;
they are otherwise separate. When the
bee goes into its hive, it folds it's wings
together. one leaf over the other, so
that they will take up less room. When
it goes abroad. it spreads it's wings and
couples them together with the hooks.
When looked at under the microscope,
the upper edge Of the lower wing is
seen to be REINFORCED as though it had
an extra plate or rib stretched along
there, and to this rib, spaced apart at
regular intervals, though they are all
contained within a total space of little
more than quarter Of an inch, there
are attached 10 or 20 tiny, bony hooks.
There is little thickening at the base
of each hook, where nature has
strengthened it, and one is inclined to
regard the hooks as inset separately
and to look for the rivets wherewith
they were secured to the plate or rib
from which they spring.
The lower edge Of the upper wing, as
looked at under the microscope, is seen
to be curled up into a flange or trough.
When the bee comes out of the hive, it
hooks the hooks on the upper edge Of
the lower wing into that f1ange or trough
at the lower edge Of the upper wing
and so makes the two wings practical
