OF course women have to dispose of

woman ever propose? asks masculine

and very prettily did Queen Victoria full
fill the task, says the Washington Post.
But the sex is so good natured in help
ing lame dogs over a stile! An Irish girl
did it in this way. She thought that her
boy was slow in coming to the point,
so she said, "If were you, Jack, and
you were me, we'd be married long ago.
Another shy man said to the lady of his
choice, II wish we were on such terms of
intimacy that you wouldn't mind calling
me by my first name" "Oh," she an

me-" Shakespeare's heroines are remark

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 it's hive, it folds its 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 total space of little
more than a 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 dange or trough.
When the bee comes out of the hive, it
hooks the hooks on the upper edge of
the lower wing into that fiange or trough
at the lower edge of the upper wing
and SO makes the two wings practical

WAS A PREHISTORIC TUsK.
Supposed Tree Root in the Maud of a Wis
cOnsin Greek.

Baraboo, Wis, May ia valuable
find was made near the home of Jo-
seph Carbary at Spring Green, this
county, recently. For several years the
family had seen what was supposed to
be a root Of a tree sticking out Of the
mud in the bottom of Bear creek. The
other day while the children were
playing about the creek they put a
rope around the supposed root and
hauled it to shore. 1t proved to be a
large tusk, evidently of some animal
that lived in these parts in the pre-
historic age. 1t was thirty-seven inches
long, twenty inches in diameter and
weighed forty pounds. Mr.. Carbary
also secured pieces Of the other tusk
and is going to dig for the rest of the
skeleton.

Wild With Eczema
Fire Could Not Have Been More
Painful.

g After spending two years in TAX
ing all kinds of medicines that were
suggested for eczema, but without

Hoods Sarsaparilla. The result was
wonderfully gratifying. Her limbs

ease, and there were times when fire
could not have been more painful.
She was, in fact, almost wild. Two
