An Insect Curiosity Shop.

Properly considered, beehiyt
Is q wonderful shop, and each ind,
vidual insect is a curiosity. The in.
habitants of a hive are classed al
drones, workers and queen. The
queen Is the mother Of every insect
In the hive, unless she has been in
stalled instead Of a queen who has
died and left the hive without a
mistress. This queen bee is the
wonder of the whole insect tribe as
far as egg laying is concerned, often
depositing 1000 eggs a day for days
IN succession during the most pro-
ductive season. The chief wonder
connected with the worker bee is
the admirable manner in which his
body is shaped and fitted with in
strumentS for honey gathering.
These natural instruments consist
Of cups, combs, brushes, knives, fun
nels, scrapers, ETC., each Of which is
worthy of a week Of careful and
painstaking study under a high
grade microscope.

Upset Clerical DAINTY.

The minister who had the repu

weeks. But it YVES one of those
times when my sense of humor got

The problems of life and death
which, to say the least of it, puzzle
most people, are lightly disposed Of
by the child. A little girl, coming
in contact with death for the first
time in the shape of lifeless bird
that she found in the wood, ran
with 1t to her nurse, according to
the London Chronicle. "What can
be the matter with itp" she cried in
amazement. The nurse, Of course,
improved the occasion. "The bird
is dead" she said portentously. 1--WE
must all die some day." The little
girl looked at the small corpse in
her hand contemplatively, then
dropped it with some disgust. ''You

marked. 81 shan't."

born at the gates of this old town,
and the boyhood days of both were
spent within its borders.
In December, 1851, Lieutenant
Burnside returned from the Mexf-
can war to Liberty for a visit, and
while there he met O young woman
from Kentucky. He fell in love al
most at first glance, and the affec-
ton appeared to be Yeciprocated.
They became engaged, and prepare
lions for the wedding were made in
the Kentucky home Of the promised
bride. The ceremony was to take
place in a church, and numerous
guests had assembled to witness it.
Burnside and his sweetheart
marched down the aisle to the music
OF wedding march and took their
places before the altar. The clergy
man received the VOW from the
bridegroom and turned to the bride |
to ask if she was ready to take him |
as a husband. The assemblage was
astounded when the woman before
the altar stammered, "Nop and
broke the hand clasp. She then hur-
red from the church, followed BY

In Morocco iron is considered ,
great protection against demons
who are the lineal representatives
after all, Of the hostile spirits
hence 1t Is usual to place knife OF
dagger under q sick mans pillow,
his illness being, of course, attribut-
ed to demoniacal possession. In In
dis the mourner who performs the
necessary but somewhat dangerous
duty Of putting fire into the dead
mans mouth carries d key or a
knife in his hand to keep off the
evil spirits. In short, bit of iron is
= very useful thing to have about
you at any time if you desire TO es-
cape the unfsvorable attention of the
ghosts, the trolls, the fairies and the
demonsgenerally. Thisis goodreason
for buyingA pocketknife. 1t is also
. reason for mailing up a horseshoe.
"But why horseshoe in particu-
lar" you ask, more than any other
edd piece Of ironp Well, primarily
the good luck depends more upon
the iron as iron than on the special
Ghape or function of the horseshoe

But there are also many reasons
why the superstition should happen
70 fix itself more particularly upon
horseshoes. We must remember that
In Europe at least 1t Is the cattle,
the horses and the domestic beasts
n general that are specially liable
to the hostile attacks of 'the little
people" Therefore the elves and
trolls are most likely to be dreaded

horses and cattle most do congre-

The fiery darts of the evil ones on

Toward the latter years Of tn,
Duke of Wellington's life It was
next TO impossible to coax or vince,

the stratagems used to get a reply
from him TO letters failed. He either
did not answer them at all or di-
rected his private secretary to do so,
and thus the famous signature of

ly priced by collectors.
