scrapers all around curious people watched
him at his novel undertaking.
1t is suspected that the bees escaped
from hive in one of the suburbs. They
were first noticed when they hummed by
the windows of Office buildings in black
cloud. After buzzing about for more than
an hour, they settled on the roof of the
Central Club, two-story structure be-
tween two sky-scrapers. The bees clus-
tered in thick mass around chimney.
1t seemed evident that something
ought to be done. Regiments of bees are
valuable, and when they go off somebody
at home worries.
Mr. Deacon-who knows bees and their
ways-made his exit to the roof with
packing-box. Scooping up handfuls of
bees, he transferred all of them to the in
terror of the box, which he then muffled
with canvas. The job took him nearly an
hour. The city-bred watchers in neigh
boring offices were surprised that Mr..
Deacon didn't get stung. When they
asked him the reason, he replied:
Bees never sting while they are swarm
ing-that's all"

"Of course" says the Wish-Shop-
keeper, seven in this delightful brand-new
thorns with the roses. The other morn

a woman who was standing beside me

very ironically: What sort of business,

such name as Serena!"
She Restores Tattered Maps
MRS. LAWRENCE'S jobs restoring old
A'A books, maps, and documents whose
owners have given them up for lost. In
her tiny office she will show you books
hundreds of years old, whose leaves are in
tatters and dropping from their bindings,
that are brought to her to restore. And
restore them she does, yet without sacri-
ficng any of the ear-marks of age.
Maps are often sent to her that are
nothing but odds and ends of paper stuck
into an envelop.
These are laid out carefully and matched
"a work that takes infinite patience;
after which the whole is backed with a
transparent silk, so that when it is finished
the original map is all there, in perfect
condition and without crease or blemish.
After the Paterson (New Jersey fire a
few years ago, Mrs. Lawrence was called
upon to restore many of the city records
and maps. These were received in a con-
dition that would seem utterly hopeless to
any one else. But Mrs. Lawrence restored
the whole collection and her reputation
has become international.

ERE are two New York women
whose ways of making good have
been exactly opposite. Mrs. Charles
<. Lawrence does only one thing, and
does it better than any one else in the
world. Miss Serena Coggswell runs what
she calls Wish Shop, where they claim
to be able to carry out any wish you can
think of; and consequently she never
does the same thing twice.
"You can have anything you wish for
here, says Miss Coggswell, "from a COM
plete wardrobe to a complete pantry or
complete library; from ideas as to how
to get rest from your children to ideas
about novel childrens parties; from meet
ing friends at the train to home-hunting.
The Wish Shop
IN this shop of Miss Coggswell's there are
not any shelves of goods. This mer-
chant never has to take stock" or "close
out old stuff" A woman wanted her
baby taken from New York to Mexico.
They attended to the matter at the Wish
Shop. A woman whose position makes it
necessary for her to appear frequently on
public platforms confded her troubles to
the Wish Shop. She had to look well, but
she just couldn't stand shopping, or even
deciding between two gowns. They took
her in hand at the Wish Shop and fitted
her out completely. A person came into
the shop who had trunkful of family let
tiers of good deal of historical interest,
but was appalled, by the magnitude of the
task of sorting them for preservation.
Some one from the Wish Shop went down

LONG DISTANCE.

President Wilson called up Sal
Francisco the other day, and sale
hello, or some other important mes
sage. Then Mayor Mitchell of New
York extended greetings to the mayor
Of San Francisco, and the transcon-
tinental long distance was on the job
1t is considerable distance, too, as one
realizes in travesing it in a parlor
car; it was much farther in the old
days Of wagon freighting across the
plains, as many Of the old settlers of
this section know, but it is no stride
at all for the telephone, which is new
er than railroads and more wonderful
even if less important. But, as great
as are the strides of "long distance"
the telephone is developing to such
an extent that there is no reason to
think it has reached the limit when it
spans continent; the oceans are
larger and less steady, but it will be
their next turn. 1t is easy to believe
that the present generation will live
to see the day when the president can
"call up" the ameer of Afghanistan
or the viceroy of India as readily as
he now halls the mayor Of San Fran
cisco, and there are possibilities in
wireless telephony which may surpass
the present achievements of wireless
telegraphy, and enable one to talk
with friends at sea without resort to
key and code. A wonderful invention,
indeed, and so new that its further
development is assured.
And it is helpful in many ways, as
well as wonderful. When it covers
the world as it now covers the coun-
try, it will make the peoples of the
earth seem closer to each other, and
less strangers, and when nations are
better acquainted they are apt to feel
more friendly, which should help
some in the great plan of peace the
world hopes to see follow this era of
war. To make the world neighborly
will at least help to make it more
friendly and that, as well as to facil-
itate business, will one day be the
province of "long distance

HEIPi

Efficiency is all right; a degree of
gertrude is desirable as result of
all our acts, but the 2 million pins
shirt manufacturers put into every
garment they send out looks like over
doing the matter, and demands the
attention of our esteemed legislature.
This is not the plant of bachelor
by long shot. Testimonials, if de-
manded, can be obtained from millions
of tired, fretful and overworked mar
ried men everywhere. 1t isn't posi-
BILE to find all the pins. The moment
you think you have, new line of
glittering intrenchments confronts
you, and even with these carried in a
last desperate assault, the chances are
you will be sniped from ambush, if
not at the moment you slip-on, the gar
ment, then an hour or so afterwards,
under circumstances that prevent you
either "holering" or "cussing," or
even explaining if you do. Patience,
fortitude and restraint of the very
highest order are required in attack
ing newly purchased shirt
The lesson is a needed one; per-
haps, in time, resignedly, step by step,
we may learn the use of each partic-
ular pin, but personally we rebel. Not
in a lifetime could we be convinced
that there is aught of either utility
or sense in the pin which is placed
at the point Of contact between the
two tails of shirt and which, do
what you will, has habit of linger-
ing. This country needs less eff
cheney and more common sense. And
if Senator Hayes and Representative
Tyler want to do something worth
while for suffering humanity they will
tackle this plague of pins in shirt. :
