Bee Comb.

Bee comb or beeswaX, the material
of which the honey cells in the beehive
are composed is Il wax produced by Il
system of chemistry carried on in the
"waX pockets" which are located in the
abdomen of all working bees. 1t is Il
peculiar substance and is said to be
analogous to the fats of higher ami
mails. Originally it was supposed that
this wax was taken up in an almost
pure state from the flowers by the
bees, but experiments carried on by
the leading botanists and chemists of
the world conclusively prove that the
bee is capable of celebrating his pecul-
lar wax, although confined to Il diet
purely saccharin in its nature.
