Wild Ones All Descended from Those
Once Domestlcated.

All the honey bees 10 this country
having originally been imported from
Europe or Aisa there is no racial diff
ference between the wild ones and the
domesticated; those that live In trees
are simply the descendants OF those
that from time to time have taken
French leave from their owners
hives and reverted to state Of ma
ture. The vast bulk Of the wild bees
are OF the German or black race, while
the standard domesticated bee is the
Italian; but that. however. is only be-
cause the Germans were the first to
be introduced here. Just when the
Germans came is In doubt, but 1t was
some time in the seventeenth centu-
ry; certainly it was not until near
the close of the eighteenth century
that any lees were found west OF the
Mississippi. The Indians used to say
they could mark the advance OF the
white man by the appearance OF bees
in the woods. The Italian bees were
first imported in 1860. Better temper
ed and more Industrious than the Ger
mans, they have become popular with
apiraists; but as many still keep the
German bee, and others have the by
brid formed by the crossing OF the
two races, while countless Italians
now have taken to the woods, there to
breed more bybrids. it is clear that
there is no sure way of distinguishing
between the Wild bee and the domesti-

PENALTIES OF GREAT PLACE.
Thrice Servants Those Who Have
Risen to High Estate.

Men in great place are thrice SER
vants--servants of the sovereign or
state, servants Of fame. and servants
OF business: so as they have no free
dom neither in their persons, nor in
their actions, nor in their times. 1t Is
a strange desire to seek power, and
to lose liberty. or to seek power over
others and to lose power over a mans
self The rising unto place is labori-
Gus, and by pains men come to greater
pains, and it is sometimes base and
by indignities men come to dignities
The standing is slippery and the re-
greet is either a downfall or at least
an eclipse, which is a melancholy
thing. Cum non sis qui fueris, non
esse cur Wells vivere." (Since you
are not what you were, there is no
reason why you should wish to live.)
Nay. retire-men cannot when they
would, neither will they when it were
reason; but are impatient of private
ness even in age and sickness which
requires the shadow; like old towns
men, that will be still sitting at their
street door, though thereby they offer
age to scorn.-From Lord Bacon's

Business OF the Evans Ice Co.
Sold to Syndicate

M. n. Ray, E. L. Walker and D. L.
Snow Are the Men Interested In the
Transaction.
An important business transfer has
taken place during the last few days, in
the sale of the business and good will of
the Evans Ice company to a syndicate of
business men who will form a corpora
ton and greatly enlarge the business
during the coming yeal. The men who
are known in the transaction are M.
II. Ray, e. l.. Walker and ID. l.. Snow.
These will probably interest at least two
others with them and become lncorpo-
rated at once. The trade was made early
in the week, a price being agreed upon
for the good will of the business and
the purchasers were to take all the prop
erty of the selling company at an APP
praisal to be made by Ezekiel Eddy
of Rutland and ID. NJ. Clough Of
Windsor, men thoroughly familiar with
the ice business. They came here Wed
nesday and their appraisal is considered
as entirely satisfactory by both parties
to the agreement.
The business is the only ice trade
which has been carried on in the village
the past few years, except a dealer from
North Walpole who has done a limited
trade. 1t was established by the late Ira
l.. Earle and the ice houses were at first
located near his residence on Earle street.
1t was later owned for a time by Charles
w Butterfeld, from whom George f.
Evans bought it about 10 years ago and
conducted it until his death in October,
1904 His heirs then formed a company
that has done an increasing and sue
cessful business the last three seasons.
The new owners come into possession of
an exceedingly prosperous and well de-
veoped trade with large possibilities be-
fore them. 1t is probable Mr.. Snow will
resign his position as janitor of the village
school buildings next April and devote
his whole time to this business.

City a Traction Partner.

Mayor Reyburn signed the new ordi-
nance Monday making the city of Phila-
delphia a partner In the management OF
the city's street railways, with the pros
pect of becoming the owner of them in
fifty years. The mayor and two men
appointed by the councils Messrs. Wolf
and Carpenter, represent the city on the
board of the transit company. The city
is to have half of the profits over 6 per
cent and retains the right to regulate the
operations of the road touching public
health and safety. The company is re-
quired to retire its $50. 0U0 900 capital by
means of sinking fund inside the fifty
years, and must pay a graduated charge
for paving and car licenses. All the
capital must be applied to improvements,
while the city will have the right to take
over the whole property any July l. with
six months notice, by paying the out
standing capital. No further obligations
may be assumed without the consent of
the city. This measure, which was
fathered by the Retail Merchants asso-
citation, was opposed by the city party
and other reform organizations as a sur
render of the city's rights

In the good old days our brave pioneer
ancestors wore bucl0skin clothes trimmed
with long fringe or fur, and for weapons
they carried long rifles with barrels made
of imported horseshoe nails, the wooden
stock trimmed with brass and ornamen-
ted with eagles, 'coons, deer and other OBJ
jects cut from shells and set into the
wood They also carried long hunting
knives and buckskin or leather bullet
pouches, often beautifully decorated with
patterns OF colored porcupine quilts and
glass beads, or made of some expensive
fur. Their powder was carried in cow
horn powder TASKS scraped smooth with
pieces of broken glass, and with the
surface engraved in rude designs Of suns
moons. stars and figures Of DIg game.
In the leather belt which encircled the
waists and belted in the wamus they car
ried trusty tomahawks, and like their
neighbors, the redskins, many of the pic
turesque old fellows were expert in the
use of these little camp-aXes as weapons
of offense and defense.
The great Daniel Boone himself car
red an ak of this kind and the trees he
blazed with his tomahawk to mark the
boundaries of land were so well known
as Boone trees" that in after years law
suits were decided by the Identification
of the blazed boundaries as the ones
made by the stroke OF Boone's toma-
hawk.-tDan Beard in Woman's Home

Truth hates delay.
1t is hard to find virtue and there is

We cannot expect to comprehend any

truth leads guided by what is reason
able, rather than by what Is certain.
Nature does not give virtue, but 1t Is
an art to become good.
He gives no promise of remaining
virtuous who is so by accident. Virtue
must be learned.
How has the first knowledge of good
ness and virtue come to us? Nature
could not teach us this. She gave us

| that goodness and virtue are known by

In order to distinguish good from bad,

The souls which are carried up into

| 1t is in vain to hope that virtue will

must work for her though in truth the
labor need not be great, If we begin to

We must learn virtue by unlearning

The noblest virtue is not fostered by

but only OF intention.
What a paltry innocence to be as good

ness of the nose, pain across the eyes,
discharges and droppings into the throat,
coughing spasms and general weakness

satisfied with the results.
Start using the Hyomei treatment and
you will have quick relief; stoppage and
filling up in the nose will cease; there will
be no more droppings into the throat; the
breath will become pure and sweet; ca
tarrhal germs will be destroyed and
their growth prevented.

Guessed Her Age.

Among the corps of instructors in one
of Washington's high schools is a woman
highly esteemed as a teacher of Ameri-
can history The class under her care
had under consideration one day topics
concerning the civil war, when one lad
volunteered, in illustration OF some point,
a lurid account of a battle, in which, he
claimed, an uncle of his had participated.
The teacher interposed to observe that
the anecdote could hardly be true, as
the uncle in question was near her own
age. and she was not born until after
the close of the war.
At this the boy seemed a trifle cha
grined at being so evidently in the wrong.
After a few moments of embarrassed 81
lence, he said, with the native air OF
one who has much the best of the stu
alton:
