In The DAYS before surnr.

once upon time. when there was no
such thing as sugar-loverS Of lollipops,
only think Of it-bees were OF much
greater value than they are now. for
honey was then the chief if not the
only sweetener, and wax was largely
used in the making Of very fine can
dies for affairs and royal banouets
Some of the laws Of old Ireland so
green and Of little Wales dealt with
the subject Of bees, which shows how
important as well as industrious were
these busy insects. Every owner Of
bees was required to distribute some of
his honey among his neighbors every
third year. Why? Because his bees
had gathered their honey from the
opening flowers on his neighbor's
lands. There was nice sense Of JUS
tee for YOU. And some there are that
would like 10 see il applied all round.

large audience was present. Bishop
CandleR's sermon was remarkable for
it's plainneSs, simplicity and marked

will simply say that the bishop preach
ed Christ and the atonement as the
only salvation from sin and emphasiz-
ed the fact that no other sort of
preaching was accompanied with re-
suits. His special talk to the young
ladies brought out a tremendous truth
that was worth his visit had nothing
else been said. On one occasion in
Georgia, his native State, the bishop
and a certain politician were to speak
on education from the same platform.
The politician urged his hearers to
educate their sons and daughters, or
they would be hewers of wood and
drawers of water all their lives AS
Bishop Gambler arose to speak, he ad-
vanced to the edge of the platform
and remarked that there is a guam

cut and lots of good water to draw,
