Short-lived Pin,

Scientific curiosity has led French
investigator to look into the old ques-
ton of the fate of the ordinary brass
pin. By series of experiments con-
Quoted on his own estate, he discOv-
cred that pins, like human beings, go
their way and are resolved into dust.
Hairpins, which the eXperimenter OBJ
served for 154 days, disappeared at
the end of that period, having been
converted into ferrous oxide,
brownish rust, which was blown away
by the winds.
Bright pins took nearly 18 months
to disappear; polished steel needles,
nearly two years and half; brass
pins had but little endurance. At the
end of Is months, steel pens were near
ly gone, while their wooden holders
were still intact. Pencils suffered lit

Among the countless temples of
Egypt there are few, and one of
them the most magnificent of all, the
temple of Amen-Rra at Karnak, that
seem to be related to the sun.
Any temple in the latitude of
Thebes that points within 26 degrees
of east or west will catch along its
axis the rays of the rising or the
setting sun on one day or another of
the year; but these temples have
special Orientation.
They point to the sun at the SOL
stices. at midsummer or midwinter,
the days when the sun rises and sets
farther north or south than at any

Infancy of the Candle,

The primitive candle of England
was rush soaked in melted fat. In
Mongolia and India mass of grease
was burned on the end of splint or
stick. By these steps it Is seen that
man was beginning to apply his in
genuity, after having found that lights
could be had, and to realize their
value. In England plan was evolved
whereby Il cord saturated with wax or
fat was coiled about vertical stick
which also supported an iron holder
for the end of the wicklike cord.
Dipped candles with cotton wick
soon put in their appearance in the
United States, followed by nodded can
dies. Some recent examples of mold
ed candles of stearine, paratiin and
wax are shown in museum collections,

A PrOgressive's View.

In declaring unequivocally 70.
the reelection of President vii
son, Judge Charles R. Spence
one Of the leading Progressive.
of the State, says:
"The nomination of Mr..
Hughes by the Republicans can
not serve to mask the batteries
that are behind him They are
still manned by the old guard
and the munitions are still sup
piled by the great favor-seeking
corporations, which have not
been neutral in recent years
when the Republican party has
been in peril The personnel and
directing forces of the recent
Chicago convention demonstrate
this to every unprecedented OBJ
server.
"The character of the organ
ization is precisely the same now
as it was in 1912. If those who
then Joined the Progressive
movement were justified in their
revolt, they are all the more
justified now in preventing the
return to place and power of the
men who were so thoroughly re-
pudiated by the country in 1912.
"The trouble is that we do not
know where Mr.. Hughes stands
upon vital questions.
1--WE know where President
Wilson stands. A Progressive
administration in the
same length of time could not
have placed more laws upon
the statute books in line with
principles and policies than
have been enacted during Presi-
Wilson's term"
There may be some Progress
ives who will support Mr..
but not a one of the
Spence kind, who were actutated
by principle in deserving the re-
publican party, will.

Lesson From Maine Election.

An analysis. of the Maine
election results gives the repub-
licans doubtful comfort and the
democrats considerable comfort.
Taft and Roosevelt in 1912 had
a total of 1926 votes in excess
of Wilson's vote. In 1916 we
find this plurality cut virtually
in half.
Fifty-siX years of solid repub-
lican electoral voting by Maine
was the states record until 1912
when Mr.. Wilson's plurality was
a scanty 1920. But in the
September election of the same
year, 1912, the republican candi-
date for governor, the party
split, got 1926 plurality. Of the
four congressional districts of
the state, the democrats carried
only one in 1914.
Though the republicans now
brag about a reunited party, the
fact is that the, democrats in
Maine in the recent election
gained a considerable percentage
of the Progressive vote, despite
the urgent appeals of both
Hughes and Roosevelt, while
President Wilson remained at his
duties in Washington.
Cutting down the republican
majority in Maine gives the
democrats assurance of still
greater gains in the western
states where the Progressive
party was born of principles and
not of personal popularity.
In Maine Roosevelt swung his
personal followers in line for the
Republican ticket, but he could
not swing a good element of real
Progressives who, like Judge
Nortoni and many other Mis-.
souri, Bull Mooser, are support
ing President Wilson.

Fall Management of Bees.

1t is not generally known that
the Missouri bee collects and
stores under favorable condi-
tons nearly a million dollars
worth of honey each year. Ac-
cording to the records of the
Missouri Beekeepers' Associa-
ton there are approximately
100000 colonies of bees in the
state owned by 100000 beemen
and beekeepers. There is a dis
tinctiOn between a beekeeper
who cares for his bees and a bee
man who merely owns the bees,
and unfortunately the latter is
in the majority. Those who
are in the latter class probably
have a few prehistoric gums or
boxes with cross ticks nailed in
side or possibly even movable
comb hives tilted over on one
side and without shade except
for that furnished by weeds
which are allowed to grow up
around them.
Even with all of the neglect
which the bees receive they help
materially to increase or rather
save the products of the state to
say nothing of their immeas-
urable value to horticulture and
agriculture in the polarization
OF fruits. In proportion to size
there is no comparison between
the value of the products of the
Missouri bee and the famed Mis-
souri, hen and at the same time
the bee feeds itself. However,
the bee is a more delicate crea-
ture than the hen and cannot
withstand the too often mex
cusable neglect which it re-
ceives.
If you are a beeman now is the
time to consider plans for get
ting your bees ready for what
may be a long cold winter. With
the first killing frosts the bees
chance to store further supplies

vided with supplies and a suit
