he had sister as beautiful as himself
whom he loved very dearly. NarclSsus

QUEEN BEES.
Wonderful Provision of Nature by
Which They Are Made.


A marvellous phase of bee life is the
power which they possess to raise
queens. or mother bees from eggs or
very young brood that would in the
ordinary course produce work ers,
which are neuters, or undeveloped fe-
males.
If by any chance a queen is killed or
lost the whole colony would perish
were it not for this wonderful pro-
vision of nature. Much perturbed at
first at their loss, the bees after some
hours settle down and deliberately
build a pear shaped structure known
as queen cell. This is much larger
than an ordinary cell, rough, rregu-
lar and strong.
In this the selected eggs, or larvae,
are lavishly supplied with "royal jel-
ly," which is highly stimulative and
in which the baby queen literally floats
during her period of growth. The re-
suit is that certain organs and Ova-
ries which remain dormant in work
er bee are perfected, and the new
queen hatches out in about fifteen
days, or six days sooner than the
workers.-London Answers.

THE PORCUPlNE.
Only known Creature That Eats The
Foliage of the HemlOrk.

"Ycu don't have 20 skirmish around
much to get feed to fatten one OF these
hemlock porcupines on" says an old
woodsman. Just sprinkle some salt
over a stick of cordwood or saw log for
that matter. and he'll eat the whole
business and enjoy it as you would
mince pie" The customary diet OF
these animals is hemloci browse. They
make themselves home in Il hollow
log or under the roots of some old tree,
but always within reach Of big hem
lock.
The hcmloCk is their pasture, and
they make beaten paths going to and
fro between the tree and their home.

Headdresses In Africa.

The married women and the men of
the upper Mobangi wear their hair
long and in braids, which are profuse-
ly adorned with colored beads woven
in and out among the locks. This Golf
fure excites the astonishment Of all
travellers who see it. Coquetry is the
privilege of the sex under the tropics
as we'll as in civilized lands, and the
women are very proud of their head
dresses. The arrangement Of their
hair requires number of days, and
While it is in progress or when they
fear that it will be disarranged they

The First Coal In Engla nd. i.

1t was to supply the wants Of smiths
and lime burners that English coal
began to be Systematically dug about
A. D. 1900. This mineral fuel suited
the requirements of their crafts even
better than wood. An unwonted and
widespread demand for fuel for these
purposes doubtless sprang up at this
period In connection with the numer-
GUS feuda castles and ecclesiastical
buildings which were being erected
throughout the kingdom. Not only
We're smiths and lime burners the sole
patrons Of coal at this early stage,
but for long time subsequently they
