A cCoRDING to the recent testimony
~ of various doctors and their pa
tients some really wonderful cures
of rheumatism and sciatica have been ef-
fected by the sting Of the bee. In one
case a person crippled by rheumatism for
fifteen years was completely cured after
he began to keep bees and was continu-
ally stung by them, while in another case
q lady who had been crippled for four
years by an attack of rheumatic fever
had bee stings applied tc the various af-
fected parts and within a fortnight the
stiffness and pain left her feet, ankles,
elbows and finger Joints.
And there are several authentic cases
of people over eighty years of age who
have suffered for years from rheumatism
being completely cured by this novel rem
edy.
The explanation lies in the fact that
the bee, when it stings, injects a large
quantity Of formic acid into the body.
This acid, as has been shown by expert
ence with hundreds of cases, is the best
Gntidote for the poisons in the system

The Japanese vegetable more nearly rel
sembles the taste and appearance Of as

plants. Its growth also is somewhat
similar. To make udo perfectly palatablst

DRUNKARDS Are Now BEING
CURED By BEE STINGS

which stifen the muscles and joints with
rheumatism.
1t is affirmed. too, by physicians that
inebriety, as well as rheumatism. may be
cured by bee sting. This discovery was
made quite by accident in London hos
pital. Five men were being treated for
chronic rheumatism. Four of them had
been hard drinkers for years and one was
a confirmed drunkard.
Bee stings were applied to them, and
the rheumatic condition promptly sub
sided When they were finally discharged
they found that the treatment had done
more than cure the rheumatism; it had
destroyed their taste for alcohol. Even
the sight of drink nauseated them, and
since leaving the hospital. several months
ago, not one OF them has touched liquor.
The hospital physicians, who were as
greatly astonished at this unexpected re-
suit as their patients, have set on foot a
widespread investigation into the effects
of bee stings on drunkards to see whether
they are an infallible cure for inebriety.
Facts already brought to light show
that an intoxicated person is quickly so
6ered by bee sting, and that drinking
men who take up work among bees, where
they are frequently stung, soon lose their
old craving for alcohol.

ORIGIN of
HAT Raising

VIIHY do men raise their hats? When
" a gentleman raises his hat he does
It simply as a mark Of respect,
but the custom originated long ago in ths
time when men wore heavy armor,
When knights went to war land thaA
seemed their chief business), they worsI
heavy steel armor from head to toe, to
protect them from the spear thrusts Of the
enemy. The head and face also were.
covered, with place to breathe through
and two little holes to see through. The
only way one knight could be distin-
guished from another was by the plume on
his hat or the crest he wore, each family
having its own particular mark. Naturally
when a knight came into a castle he took
OF, for comfort, the armor covering Of
his head, and so originated the idea Of
tipping the hat, which in this day has BE-
come q common mark Of respect to ladisA
