fered to wait for the money until such
a time as the government would be
able to pay its obligation or else to re-
ceiye it in treasury notes, which were
practically worthless under the circum-
stances. ~
Like many of those who were the
most ardently DESTROYS of the success
of the new government and willing to
sacrifice all their. own personal inter-
ests for the country, Stephen Girard
was foreign born. He had come to
America from France penniless boy,
and by industry had succeeded in MAX
ing himself one of the wealthiest of the
Americans Of his time.
In 1893, when yellow fever cpl
demic had broken out, Girard nursed
tho sufferers and established and or
gnnized hospital for them, Although
personally of peculiar Temperament,
Girard was always open handed and
great-hearted In all public affairs. BY
bis will he provided for many chart
ties, the most lasting of which has been
the Girard College of Philadelphia for
male white orphans.
The United States owes much to Ste
pllen Girard for the opportune financial
assistance which he rendered to her.
Eut even more she owes him for his
splendid example of the greater patri-
otism which sacrifices all self-interest
TO the greater cause of country.

After slumbering more or less quiet
ly for few years, the romantic tale
that the bees drop into each cell Of
honey small drop Of. poison from
the sting before sealing up the cell,
using the sting as a trowel to work
the wax, seems to have started anew
its rounds of the public press. To any
who have sent in clippings Of the kind,
possibly wondering what foundation
there may be for the yarn, it may be
said on the authority of bee expert
that it is all a work Of imagination, Its
originator apparently seeming to think
it true, but never Offering particle of
proof. or course, none of the papers
that gave it currency will bother them
selves with contradiction, and the
only thing that can be done is patiently
to allow it to run its course and die
out, only to be resurrected seven years
later by some penny a-liner who has
nothing else sensational on hand.
