Marvel at
Weeqvahic
Low Prices

Cannot understand how it
can be that cut glass of such
high quality as Weequahic
can be sold at the prices we
place on it?
If you have been in the
habit of buying at retail
stores and paying the
usual retail prices we don't
wonder. Here, remember,
we retail cut glass OF our
own making at wholesale
prices, and no dealer sells
better cut glass than Wee
quahic, no matter what
price he asks.
A few items that serve as
price hints:
Spoon Trays or Holders, $3.50 up
Decanters. $500 to $500
Fern Dishes $50. $50 to 800

Honey is a very economical food,

Honey, when taken from the hive,

The nectar-laden bees,
Home coming through the trees,
Wing this refrain; Toll is not in vain,
For work is king Of ease"
The manufacture Of comb honey is
monopoly of the bees. But we might
Include in that also all pure honey.
No art of man has yet been able to
make a pure article of honey. How
ever, until the passage of the pure
food law there was an abundance Of
limitations Of honey on the market.
This could only be said Of the liquid
honey. No one has ever been able to
initiate the comb honey. There is a
standing offer of $1,000 for a pound of
comb honey made without Intervention
of bees. If anyone says there is spur
ious comb honey on the market, tell
him to put down his 25 cents for
pound of it and then make $999.75 out
of it by turning it in to the American
Bee Keepers Association.
Both the color and flavor of honey
is as varied as the color and perfume
Of the flowers from which it is gath
cred.
The light colored honeys are made
from white clover, linden (basswood),
sage, sweet clover, alfalfa, willow herb,
etc, etc. The dark colored honeys are
gathered from heartsease, magnolia Cor
poplar), horse mint, buckwheat, etc.
Sometimes people get a taste for
some one of these fiavors, and prefer
It to any of the others. There is no
doubt that the light-colored honey
gives the better appearance. but sorcs
of the dark honeys are of very fine
flavor.
AS a pure food, nothing among the
sweets can surpass honey. 1t is a
well-known fact that the carbohy-
drates or sugars are necessary to the
human body. Most sweets are what arc
called "cane sugars" or double sugars.
These must be broken down into grape
sugar or single sugar This process Of
passing from the double to the single
or the cane TO the grape is usually ac-
complished by the saliva. and unless
the saliva becomes thoroughly mike
before 1t passes into the stomach. there
is a feeling OF heaviness and a ten
dency to dyspepsia. Now In the case
of honey the bee has done all this work
necessary to reduce the cane sugars
to grape sugar. AS soon as the nectar
is gathered from the flowers and stored
in the honey sac of the bee this trans
formation is begun, and while the busy
bee is flying home from the field she
is at work completing in her honey sac
the change of this cane sugar into a
single sugar-or grape sugar. The
honey then is deposited in the cells

NEW YORK.

Continued warm, unreasonable weather
and the approach of the national election
tend to hamper distribution OF season.
able merchandise, the purchase of any
but immediate necessities and the prsJec-
ton of new enterprises. On the balance
industry is slightly more active, some
branches of the iron trade having in
creased forces. While building IS mere
brisk but at the same time drought or
low water in various navigable streams
tend TO affect such lines as coke. water
way navigation and paper mills. Kali
way tonnage is heavier, and current
gross earnings show smaller decreases
thar for any time in the past ten msnfhs.
Summed UP, caution still prevails, but
confidence is very strong. and therefore
natural conditions. together with light
stocks. should produce Il marked degree
of expansion after the turn of the new
year. Until then repression seems to
be the policy, the hand-to-mouth buying

QUESTIONS ABOUT THE FARM.
President Asks Many and the Com
mission Il Busy.

President Roosevelt wants to know
why. To receive this information q
commission on country life, consisting
of six members, is now conducting an
investigation. After the farmer has
made known his advantages and draw
backs. other citizens are to be asked
whether they like their job, their home,
their %ncighbors and why.
Some of the questions now going over
the thousands of rural routes are as
follows:
Are the farm homes in your neigh
borhood as good as they should be under
existing ,~onditions:'
Are the schools in your n~eighborhood
training boys and girls satisfactorily for
life or the farm"
40 the farmers in your nciShborhood
get the returns they reasonably should
from the sale of their products"
do the farmers in your neighborhood
receive from the railroads, highroads,
trolley lines, etc, the service they rea-
sonably should have?"
DO the farmers in your neighborhood
receive from the United States postal
service. rural telephone, etc, the service
they reasonably should expect?"
Are the farmers and their wives in
your neighborhood satisfactorily organ
lied to promote their mutual INTEREST,""
"Are the renters of farms in your
neighborhood making a satisfactory liv.
ing?"
as the supply of farm labor in your
neighborhood satisfactory"
