PHILOSOPHY TO THE RESCUE
Pat Went Without His Steak, but at
That Everything Was Not
Lost.

Charles Nagel, secretary Of com
merce and labor, says the Irish race
has, in addition to its sentiment and
romance, lot of philosophy as one
of its characteristics.
THE best illustration | ever heard
of this" he explained to a dinner
party one evening, was the case of
a poor Irishman who had been given
a fine, juicy piece of steak. Being a
religious man, he placed the steak in
front of him, and there, in the shade
of the trees surrounding his benefac-
tors house, he folded his hands,
closed his eyes, and gave thanks to
heaven for the meal. When he was
in the attitude of prayer a dog rushed
up and captured the steak. Pat
looked around In time to see the food
disappearing oyer the hill.
THANK heaven he exclaimed,
again closing his eyes, he left me my
appetite!'"-The Sunday Magazine.

The successful manipulation Of
bees depends entirely on a knowledge
OF their habits. This is not generally
recognized, and most of the literature
on practical ~beekeeping consists Of
sets OF rules to guide manipulations.
While the method usually answers.
1t Is nevertheless faulty, in that with
OUT a knowledge of fundamental prin.
eiples OF behavior. the bee keeper is
unable to recognize the seemingly abb
normal phases of activity, and does
not know what to do under such
circumstances. Rules must, of course
be based on the usual behavior. BY
years OF association the bee keeper
almost unconsciously acquires a wide
knowledge Of bee behavior, and con.
sequently is better able to solve the
problems which constantly arise.
However, 1t would save am infinite
number Of mistakes and would add
greatly to the interest of the work
II more time were expended on a
study Of behavior; then the knowl.
edge gained could be applied to prac.
teal manipulation.
A colony of bees consists normally
OF one queen bee, the mother of the
colony, and thousands of sexuaIly I'm.
developed females called workers.
which normally lay no eggs, but build
the comb, gather the stores, keep the
hive clean, feed the young. and do
the other work of the hive. During
part of the ear there are also pres
ent some hundreds of males, or
drones. whose only service is to mate
with young queens. These three
types are easily recognized, even by
a novice. In nature the colony lives
In a hollow tree or other cavity, but

which form their abode are com posed

NORESHADOWING already what
we may expect for the coming
fall season, the hats for late
summer indicate that we shall have
many bonnet-like shapes, tall crowns
and large hats few in number as COM
pared to small and medium-sized
models. Outing hats for July and Au-
gust are of felt in white or light
%colors, such as Alice blue, champagne
and the seasons beautiful pink tones.
These are either all felt or felt and
hemp combinations and are trimmed
with scarfs, bands, soft d~raperies Of
chiffon and wings or ribbon. They
are exquisite and, it must be con-
fessed. fragile in the matter of keep
Ing clean. But they remain present
able for some time and are cleaned
with fine sandpaper. Everywhere the
hoating white veil accompanies these
cool-looking creations of the milliner.
The wells are of lace, in several va.
%rieties. in coarse silk nets and In
chiffon. They are all washable and
add immensely to the attractiveness
of the hats and the complexion. for
they are worn either over or of the
lace.
More pretentious millinery is shown

in the trimmed models pictured here,
One of the con~e-shaped hats, OF
which we may expect to see numbers
during the fall season, is shown in
the illustration. 1t is trimmed with
a full ruche of silk 'pinked" at the
edges and laid in q%uadruple box-plait-
ings. Velvet fruit, like plums, cher.
ries or even apricots. set in these
ruchings make a trimming chic and
striking. Velvet fruit, in fact. is de-
veloping SO much popularity that II
will probably stay with us and add a
charming note to winter millinery,
and hats made Of felt in the shape
pictured here are quite like to be
trimmed In the same way.
A model of black hemp, with a mod
erately tall crown. is also shown. 1t
Is calculated to pave the way for ex.
tremely ~high-crowned models, or
crowns trimmed extremely high.
which Paris says, are to be a vogue
for winter. This s~oft-crowned model

the brim edge and is finished with a
cluster of outstanding plumes at the
back. An ornament made of plated
ribbon finishes the trim, poised on the
crown at the right side.

A Curious Fashion,

The latest models in skirts or in
costumes with attached skirts and
waists show the skirt decidedly short
er in front than at the back. a differ
ence which. in the walking length, is
very noticeable. Even ballroom gowns
are cut on the same lines.

Ing. When the hive is nearly filled
with bees and stores. or when a heavy
honey flow is on. the queen begins
to lay eggs in the larger cells. and
these develop into drones or males
Continued increase of the colony
would result in the formation of
enormous colonies, and unless some
division takes place no increase in
the number of colonies will result
Finally, however, the workers begin
to build queen cells. These are larger
than any other cells in the hive and
hang on the comb vertically. In size
and shape they may be likened to
a peanut, and are also rough on the
outside.
In preparing for swarming the
queen sometimes lays eggs in partly
constructed queen cells, but when a
colony becomes queenless the cells
are built around the female larvae.
The larvae in these cells receive spe-
cial food, and when they have grown
to full size then, too, are sealed up,
and the colony is then ready for
swarming.

Making Use OF Garden Waste.

During the summer there is a
great deal of waste in the garden that
may be made good use of when fed
to the hens. Hens will eat almost all
kinds of green food. vegetables and
fruit.
When the peas have been picked
from the vines 1t hardly pays to burn
the vines as so much rubbish when
hens are especially fond of them.
The same thing may be said of
beans. beet tops. cabbage. etc. Every
suburban home should have a flock
of hens; 1t is surprising how little it
costs to keep a small flock of hens
when the waste of the garden and
kitchen is fed them.

ton the size Of the cells Is controlled
by the bee keeper by the use of a

wax on which are impressed the bases
OF cells and on which the bees build
the side walls.
When the activity of the spring
begins, the normal colony consists OF
the queen and some thousand of work
ers. AS the outside temperature
raises. the queen begins to lay eggs
in the worker cells.
These in time develop into white
larvae. which grow to fill the cells.
