OBJECTED TO "coW MUSIC"
and ar Appreciation Of What
IL Correct.

Cow music was never intended for
bees, and Capt. George Sinclair of
the North Side police station and
Patrolman J. A. Larson, both expert
bee trainers, proved it beyond dis
pute the other day when a hive of
bees swarmed from a hive on the sta
ton roof.
Music or any noise that will dis
tract the attention of the queen bee
is supposed to be the best agent for
settling a swarm of bees. Captain
Sinclair was a piper in a company
of Queen Nctoria's Highlanders,
and so when Larson told him the
bees were swarming he grasped his
bagpipes and went to the station
yard.
The old ballad 'When the Rye
Come Hame' was the air the captain
selected. As the people rushed from
their houses to hear the pipes the
bees settled as predicted by the cap
tain, but they mistook the limb of
the law for the limb of a box elder
the captain had eyed during the per-
Torrance and settled on Larson. The
bees clinched their hold and the
stingers didn't stop at mere gar
ments. :
A change in the program failed to
relieve the situation for Larson. BY
shaking himself vigorously, imitat-
ing as nearly rs possible the motion
of a tree branch when shaken by a
b~eekeeper, Larson induced the bees
to 60 into the hive.
Ammonia, hartshorn and other
antidotes for bee sting decorate the
mantel shelf in the Larson home to-

VIII Pay Well to Teach Children the
Habits Of Nsatness, System
and Order.

To teach children habits of neat
ness. system and order, avs Orison
SWEET Marden in an article in Sue
cess Magazine, is to insure some de-
gree, at least, of success. sNet they
are often brought up amid disorder
and confusion, allowed to throw
things down just where they use
them, and to form ~slovenly and slip
shod habits. They are not taught to
put things where they belong, and
consequently they grow up shackled
With handicaps which they can rare
ly throw off.
If there is any delusion in the
world, it is that doing "things just
for now,' dropping things wherever
one may happen to be temporarily
saves time. On-the contrary, this is
I great time waster and a great de-
moralizer Of character. A bad habit
not only tends to repeat itself, but TO
increase the tendency in that direc-
ton.
II YOU were not taught the beauti-
full lesson Of orderliness in your
youth, teach it to yourself now.
