For Its Size, Sting of
Bee Is Most effective
Internal Machine Known

In proportion to its size, the sting OF
the hOneybee is probably the most ef-
fective internal machine in existence,
says the Popular Science Monthly.
The stinging apparatus is smaller than
that of a rattlesnake, yet single sting
has been known to kill man. When
we realize that it is almost invisible,
and consider what it can do, we cannot
fail to be astOunded. 1t seems the
very quintessence of devilishness.
The honeybee's sting is complicated
so complicated that many words and
much ink have been used in discussing
it's construction and use. 1t is gener-
ally conceded that the sting consists
of three parts, the principal one being
a sheath within which move two barb
ed lancetS. Like the barbs of a fish
hook, the lancets are not easily eS-
tracted from the flesh into which they
have been driven. The sheath and the
lancets combined form a hollow tube
through which the poison flows from
the poison sac. Two hairy, soft pro-
jections, evidently very sensitive, in
form the bee when she is in contact
with stingable object.

Red Men of the Western
World Had a Universal
Language Centuries Ago

A white man who visits a foreign
nation finds 1t hard and sometimes i'm
possible to make his most ordinary
wants known. The red man has no
such difficulty; the problem of uni
versal language was solved centuries
ago by the savage inhabitants Of this
western world.
Should an Indian from northern
Alaska go to Patagonia, he could by
means of this universal language con-
verse with his southern brethren al
most as easily as he could with his
neighbOrs at home. That would also
be the case If he visited Central Amer
lea or met the tribesmen Of our own
western prairies and mountains.
When this language was invented no
one knows, but every Indian learns 1t
in addition to his own. Recently two
chiefs of different tribes met in the
geographical society rooms in Washing
ton and held a conversation that last
ed nearly three hours, and yet neither
one knew a word Of the others Ian
guage.
This universal Language is, Of course,
made up of signs. For example, If an
Indian Is passing through a strange
country and sees other Indians at a
distance, he makes the peace sign
that is, he holds up his blanket by
two corners so that it covers his whole
figure. The same thought is ex-
pressed by extending the hands, palms
outward, slightly inclined from the
face. Any Indian would understand
either one of these signs.
Then there are the abstract signs by
which the "savages" can express their
thoughts with regard to the great spir.
1t, heaven, good, evil, life and death
sickness, health, riches and poverty
Life is expressed by drawing an imag
mary thread from the mouth and death
by chOpping this thread off. Another
sign of death is to hold the tips OF
the fingers of one hand against the
palm of the other and let them grad,
ually slip downward and at last drOI
beneath the palm. - Youths Com

Industrial Illness

A recent health report, to which at
tention is called by the New York Med
tcal Record, estimates that there are
from 25,OOO,O0O to 100000 of indus
trial workers in the United States and
that each one Of these loses from eight
to nine days work a year from ILL.,
ness. 1t proceeds to show that this
would make an annual loss of 6OO. 1000
years and this could make an economic
loss of $3600O0,OOO. supposing the
wOrkman's average pay was $40 a
month-a very low estimate. In many
cases investigated among industrial;
workers 1t has been found, says the
Record, that disease has been the re-
suit of neglect Of personal hygiene
rather than of inattention to any sani-
tary precautions connected with the
particular occupation. It is held that
the fundamentals of hygiene should be
ta9ght in the home and in the school,
and that when we consider that about
one-third Of our school children be-
come industrial workers the import
ance of including personal hygiene in
every public school curriculum becomes
evident.

YOUR MAIL
BY DR.. SAMUEL G. DIXON,
Commissioner of Health of PennsyI.
Vana,


Commissioner of Health of PennsyI-
Vania.
DO you read your morning mail at
the breakfast table? Have you ever
used a knife or fork to open your let
ters! 1t is not an uncommon practice,
and yet an uncleanly and dangerous
one.
The post office is essentially a public
utility, and it is universally used by
all classes Of people. A common point
of destination may put my lady's
dainty note beside dirty scrawl from
the vilest of slums
Millions Of pieces Of mail matter are
handled. A certain number of these
come from people who are suffering
from all kinds of diseases, some of
them lOathSome and infectious.
Stamps and envelopes, contrary to
hygienic rules are for convenience
sake, frequently licked. Despite quar-
| antine precautions, mail sometimes
comes from houses where cases of
communicable diseases exist which
have not been reported.
Mail bags are not subjected to regu-
lar disinfection, and are not so cleansed
as to make them safe from the danger
of becoming a factor in the transmits
sion of disease.
During the recent epidemic of in
fantile paralysis, many of those work.

ion that it may be carried by third
person. Is it unreasonable to pre-
! sumo that the disease may be carried
through the mail?

Whv Labor Is Scarce.

Here is one reason which you may
have overlooked why labor is growing
scarcer every day in the United States
We have now in Pennsylvania alone
225,000 automobiles. One-third of them
are pleasure cars driven by chauf-
feurs, an army of $4,000 able-bOdied
men removed entirely from produc-
tive work.
The army of pleasure car chauffeurs
in the whole country must exceed half
a million men-all nonproducers. In
deed, there is another great big army
of men building pleasure cars to he
operated by these other nonprOduceN
of essentials.
They used to complain in Germany
that every taxpayer had to carry SOL
der on his back. We vary it in the
United States by carrying a chauffeur
on our backs. says "Girard" in the
Philadelphia Ledger.

How 1t Is Done.

A man, engaged in buying necktie
for himself, turned the pile over and
over and at last put aside two as not
worthy of further consideration. The
salesman placed the rejected ties in
a separate box. The man asked wheth.
er they had been placed by mistake
with those he had been examining.
"Oh, no." was the polite response
"but we have orders when five or six
men turn down a tie to take it out
and put it aside"
"What becomes of them"
Eve sell them to women who come
in here to buy ties for men,"

One day it took about five minutes
of argument and appliance of the rod
by his mother before he was finally in

then it was not easy.

her with a lordly sir "but won't do
