MAKING ESDEN CHIN "A.

You have read fairy tales of the
accidental discovery OF marvellous
scientific truths. for which wise and
learned men had been seeking by all
the approved methods of science. Did
you know that the discovery of the
material which makes translucent
chinaware possible was due to the
vanity of man-not mankind. which
includes woman. but to masculine
man? 1t came about in a remarkable
devious manner, beginning and end
ing a little way from the spot where
Dresden china IS still manufactured.
The man who identified the long
sought substance was an eminent
chemist, John Frederick Boetcher;
but the scientist would never have

THE FOOD VALUE OF HONEY
Natural Product That Has Been IN
Use for Ages.

Honey, as an article of food, has a
value that is well established and un-
questionable. Apart from its pleasing
taste and odor, it has specific quail
ties that enttle it to high place in
the list of natural food products.
After 1t has been collected II does
not need to be subjected to any addi-
tional treatment to be made fit for
use; it is in reality a natural" prod
uct. Its use as such has been known
from the earliest times and its popu-
larlty will undoubtedly remain unim-
paired while the need for human food
endures.
The quality Of honey Is greatly af-
fected by the source from which the
bee collects 1t, for 1t takes easily the
REGULAR flavor of the plant that pro-
dces 1t. So far as taste Is concerned,
the Eastwood tree stands easily first,
and buckwheat just as indisputably
last in the order of merit as pro-
ducers. Honey has the great recon-
mendation that most Of the work Is
dore by the bee. care being taken to
give them Towering plants from
which to collect the honey and con-
venient places in which to store 1t.
Industrious as the bees are, they pre-
fer to operate without having to pro-
vide themselves with receptacles and
one of the ingenious practices in bee
keeping is to furnish them with boxes
or frames that are easily removable,
and when the full boxes are replaced
by empty ones the bees work on until
they are all filled or the season comes
to An end.
