be proud Of. The other day he decided

took It to well known Broadway

told Jones when the latter modestly
asked the cost,of putting the watch in
good running order. Leave 1t and come

Jones did 50, and caught his breath

he took his watch and fed. At noon

Force Of Habit.

Speaking of force Of habit. some
years ago there was an iron railing
around the capitol grounds at Wash.
ington. The appropriation bill provided
Tor q Waterman to close and lock the
gates every night at q certain hour and
open them at a certain hour every
morning. In the course Of time the
railing or fence was removed, but the
gates swung between their Egyptian
pillars for a long time. and al that
time the watchman came and went
regularly, closing and opening the
gates according to law and drawing his
salary.

Ringing Bells to Swarm Bees.

Rlng1nG Bells to warn Bees.
It is a foolish notion to suppose that
the ringing Of bells or Hanging" Of TN
pans will cause a swarm Of bees to
settle, says Country Life In America.
The real origin Of this custom dates
back to the reign Of Alfred the Great,
who. in order to prevent disputes re-
garding the ownership Of swarm, or
dered that the owner should always ring
bell when his bees swarmed. and ever
since then the good farmers wife has
been rushing out with ringing be..s
whenever the bees swarmed. and the
fact that they settled verified, in her
own mind. the belief that the bell did 1t.
