stuck in the bottom OF cell. In three
or four days the lsrvs is hatched. and
being bountifully fed by the young bees
who are the nurses. it grows very rapid
ly and soon nearly fills the CELL The
bees add supply Of food and cap the
cell with wax. In due time. about
three weeks after the egg was laid. the
full grown bee emerges. When the
outside bees observe that the nymph is
gnawing her way out, they each as they
pass by give nip or two at the opening
which thus soon becomes large enough
for her to pass through. She steps out
and looks about in half dazed way for
a moment. then carefully removes the
veil from her head, and deftly makes
her toilet.
She then reminds me OF q little Qua
ker maiden, being light colored and
fragile in aspect like plant grown il
the dark with her dainty wings, which
have never yet been spread, folded so
demurely by her sides. You know the
bees require large wings for their long
flights, but as they often have to work
in cell, they have pair Of wings on
each side which they hook together and
spread out as one when flying, but when
unlocked slip one under the other so
they take up little room as they go into
the cell. OF course we could not see
these hooks except with the aid of a
microscope. But We could, with the
naked eye. see their dear little tongues,
Doesn't that seem almost incredible?
There were openings for ventilation in
the top and ends of the hive, which
we're covered with wire netting, and il
a lump Of moist sugar or a string wet
with honey were held close to one OF
them, the bees would be at once at
tracted and dart forth their tiny red
tongues, which should think may be
an eighth Of an inch in length and as
large as fine sewing needle.
1t is because you have 80 wide a cir

Besides all the work which the bees

have an observation hive Of bees in
my room window. The sides are glass,
thus giving an opportunity OF observing
all that goes on in the interior OF the
hive. A narrow board was securely
screwed on the window sill for the win
dow to shut upon. There was a bole
in this board just large enough for the
extension OF the bottom board OF the
hive to pass through, and through this
was the exit for the bees. So you see
there was not the least chance for the
bees to gain access to my room. and l
could enjoy watching them without fear
of being disturbed by them.
They never showed any indication Of
fear either. In fact, did not appear con-
scious of being observed.
Every recollection Of them is 90
charming that / scarce Bnow where to
begin. or what to select for description.
There was but one frame Of comb in my
hive. 90 it only housed few thousand
bees. There was one queen, perhaps
score of dronea, and The rest were work.
ers. When my nephew brought them
to me and had set up the hive, asked
him to point out the queen to me, but
being in haste he merely told me that
l would know her as soon as saw her,
without any showing This seemed to
me very doubtful, but it proved to be
true. She was little larger than the
workers and more slender than the
drones. and had an entirely different
air. 1t seems absurd to epeak OF state
illness in the movements of such a little
thing. and yet it perfectly describes her
carriage when she was walking about
inspecting her field Of operations. Her
soul duty and occupation is laying eggs.
And you will say that this is quite
enough to expect Of her when you
realize that an active queen deposits
probably hundred thousand in a sea-
con, and each one Of these is in a cell
by itself. She carefully inspects a cell,
and when it is empty and in satisfactory
order, she turns and deposits an egg in
the far end Of it, and at once passes on
to the next. Several bees attend upon
her constantly, and every few minutes
feed her. At frequent intervals she
becomes apparently quite exhausted by
her efforts, and it is very amusing to see
the lackadaisical manner in which she
