WORRY OVER SMALL THINGS
Unfortunate Habit of Making Noun
tains Out of MolehIlIs All Too
Common With All.

"One of the foolishest things we NOR
tails do" said Mr.. Gratebar, sis to make
mountains out of molehills.
Half the worry and distress in the
world comes from this unfortunate
habit. It breeds distrust, creates hard
feeling. breaks up friendships. makes
discord in families, 1t makes misery
all around, and all this in nine hun
dred and ninety-nine cases out of
thousand for just nothing.
"The commonest form of molehill Is
the spoken word Somebody says some
thing to us that we think is mean, or
that we think is suspicious, or lack
ing in appreciation, or twitting or sar-
castle, and right away we begin to
brood over 1t, to let 1t ranlzle in us, to
magnify it, to make mountain of 1t.
ut Is at least an even chance that
the little thing of that sort that dis
tresses us so was never meant that
way at all. But suppose it was meant
to be sharp. What of II? We are all
human, and the best of US are liable to
! make little slips at times and say lit
tie thoughtless things that we ought
not to.
"But why should we make noun.
tains of such molehills. of things that
would have been forgotten the next
moment If we did not dwell on them
keep thinking of them and brood over
them until finally we magnified them
into great grievances?"

BEES KNOWLEDGE OF TIME
Experiments Seem to Prove Them En-

Beyond Belief.

Bees, said to be the most intelligent

edge of time, says the Philadelphia
Record. Professor Conklin of the Uni

serts. that bee flying half mile
away from its hive returns safely to it's
shelter. It observes closely the land
marks passed on the outward journey.
An owner of several hives of bees,
noting the diligence they observed in
their work, was induced to investigate
II time could be accurately gagged by
his swarms. For several weeks he had
his meals on the terrace of his house,
breakfast being served promptly at
seven o'clock when preserves were
used as a light repast.
Most OF the contents of the table
were allowed to remain until lunch
con. Mt 10 a. m. At noon the mid
day meal was served, but without
sweets. At 4 p. m. there was light
lunch, with sweets. which remained
on the table for half an hour or so.
As further inducement a dish of
stewed cherries was put to cool on a
window nearby. and in a few hours the
whole swarm of bees were sucking the
sweet juice.
This melted the bees to visit the
window regularly. The dish was aft
erward moved to the table, and was
discovered by one of their number.
On the morrow several companies were
at the feast. and every day the number
increased. At first the bees arrived at
all hours but soon they realized that
there was nothing doing" between 10
.. m. and p. M. so the visits ceased
except at the meal hours.

RETURN TO WAGER OF BATTLE
Warfare of the Future Likely to Be
Restricted to Comparatively
Few Combatants.

A day, not far removed, may come
when the embattled hosts of rival ma
tons will give place to wager of
battle to decide the conflict. The bat
tie will then be confined to the COM
batants alone without violent interfer-
ence with the peaceful pursuits of
noncombatants or destruction of their
property.
First, however, we must evolve
great engines of destruction so per-
feet that a few skilled heroes will di-
rect each one of them. These war ma
chimes will be so costly that only a
few great powers Will have the re-
sources to construct and maintain
them. Wise legislation and skillful
systems of taxation will be necessary
to organize the whole people for their
support. A chosen few, picked from
the whole nation, will man them, men
in the full vigor of their strength,
physically perfect to endure the terri
BILE strain, and powerful Of brain to
meet and surmount every intricacy of
mechanics and every difficulty of
strategy.
Above all, these hero supermen
must be of such answering character
that they will, day In and day out,
without surcease, devote their unfiag-
ging zeal to the great task of defend
ing the civilization for which they con-
tend. The evolution and the increas-
ing economic burden of maintenance
of this machinery will make war the
luxury of the most powerful states
and will cause the area of war con-
stantly to recede. Small nations will
no longer be able to maintain military
establishments, and eventually the mil
lions of men who now battle upon the
field of honor will have been replaced
by q contest among few men In con-
troll of stupendous machinery.-Ellery
G. Stowell in the Century Magazine.

SIMPLY PLACE OF DEsoLATIoN
Little for the Traveller to Enthuse Over
When He Visits the Old City
of Jerusalem.

The allies advance in Palestine has
taken them through Jerusalem and the
little village Of Jericho. The plain of
Jericho, the scene of so many historic
incidents In the past, is once again
caught In the old glare of the spot
light. Such light reveals too plainly
the hopeless poverty of the people. the
cracks and holes in the rough walls of
the novels, the fields and gardens, fall
len by neglect into a riot of weeds and
wild flowers growing rank.
1t Is better to look at Jericho at sun
set, and not too critically even then. In
q soft light the wretchedness of the
matched huts is less insistent. the jas
mine and oleanders seem sweeter and
the ragged Bedouins acquire pictur-
esQueness In spite of dirt and squalor.
1t is only short walk through the
plain from this Jericho of the present
to the two other sites which have
borne the same name. One, the Jericho
Of Old Testament, destroyed by Joshua,
is only memory, its reality proved by
bits of unearthed walls and pottery.

stones and battered towers. The palms
for which 1t was famous are gone, with
the palaces and circus which they
shaded. The plain of Jericho is a will
derness, bound to civilization by its
many highways and its tiny village. A
few miles to the southwest lies Jeru-
salem, connected with the village by
the robber-infested road along which
the good Samaritan travelled. All about
the plain rise the cliffs, mounted by
steep and winding trails. 1t is not an
attractive region, but even If 1t were
more wild and desolate than it is 1t
would still be much visited, for at
every step are landmarks of history.

ASCRlBED TO FALLING STAR
Mystery Crater In Plain of Arizona is
Thus Explained by Biologists
of Prominence.

About forty miles from Flagstaff
Ariz., In the midst of a great plain,
there is a saucer-shaped hollow or
crater about three-quarters of a mile
across and 600 feet deep. The rim
OF the crater rises between $50 and
2OO feet above the surrounding plain.
Rocky fragments are scattered about
for several miles around the crater.
Among these rocks many fragments of
meteortc Iron, some containing black
diamonds, have been found. The in
ner walls show that the crust of the
earth was broken when the crater was
formed, yet no volcanic rocks exist
there.
Biologists have offered theories to
account for this phenomenon. One is
that an immense meteorite made the
hole, and that the meteoric fragments
mentioned are remnants of the falling
star. Another theory ascribes the
origin of the crater to tremendous
explosion of steam in the rocks be-
meath, and third combines the first
two by suggesting that the blow of
falling meteor, striking the earth's
crust at point where subterranean
water had accumulated In the neigh
borhood Of heated rocks was the cause
Of the explosion.

COLONY OF BEES
IS LIKE MACHINE
Beekeeper Who Knows His Bust
ness Is Thoroughly Sure of
Success.
PROPER HOUSE is IMPORTANT
Greatest Source of Loss is Death and
Weakness Of Insects in Winter
Disease Discharges Many
Beginners.

From the United States Department of
Agricultural
The productive colony of bees is like
a good machine in the hands of q good
mechanic. While energy is consumed
simply to run the machine, a good me-
chanic does the right work at the right
time and obtains the greatest possible
reward in the machines output. So
the beekeeper who has made q study
of the business and knows how proper
ly to direct the energies of the bees is
sure of winning the greatest success.
Many good beekeepers In, the United
States receive a good living from their
bees and have incomes equal to that
of a prosperous farmer in other lines
of agriculture.
Bees should be properly housed in
good hives. Swarming should be con-
trolled, surplus room should be pro-
vided at the proper time, and in abun-
dance. and adequate protection and
care to prevent losses should be pro
vided during the winter.
OF the major sources of loss of bees
the greatest is the death and weakness
| of colonies in winter. By starvation
and exhaustion of vitality the average
winter loss in most localities is fully
| 10 per cent. 1t is not at all unusual
for the honey crop to be reduced one
half by poor wintering, yet this coming
winter loss can be reduced readily tt
less than l per cent.
A second source of loss is from two
infectious diseases of the brood Of
bees, European foulbrood and Ameri
can foulbrood. Within the past few
years many of the states have pro
vided for apiary inspection, and In al
but few states these diseases are suf
ficiently controlled to permit CONNER
cial beekeepers to conduct their worl
with virtually full returns. In spite
of such success the annual loss of colo

MES from disease is probably $1,000
600, and many beginners in Bookkeeping
are discouraged by the disease situa-
ton. This source of loss is therefore O
serious one
When a colony becomes populous
during good honey flow 1t normally
makes preparation to swarm, thus d.
viding itself into two colonies. While
this instinct is advantageous to wild
bees, it results in a reduction in the
honey crop if the division occurs, as 1t
usually does, just before or during the
time when nectar is especially album
dant. Rarely can swarmlng be entire
iy prevented, even with the best of
care, but the proper measure of bee
keepers skill is his success In reduc-
ing this activity. A failure to attempt
this causes untold loss in honey every
year, and the methods of swarm pre-
vention and control can be understood
only by careful study and experience.
The proper giving of room for sur
plus honey is important in this connec-
ton. 1t is an unusually good locality
In which nectar is abundant all sum
mer and this room must be given at
just the right time. This necessitates
watchful study of the nectar-produc-
ing flowers. 1t is quite common prac-
tice for beeheepers to put on one
'super" for the storage of surplus
honey and to wait until this is entirely
filed before giving more space. This
results in the loss of much honey from
lack of storage space, and often too
much is stored in the part of the hive
which should be devoted to brood rear
ing. The proper placing Of room for
surplus honey requires vigilance and
study, and a failure to provide this
room on time and in the proper way
often may reduce the crop to one-third

MINING OPERATOR
KILLED BY BANKER

Ell Paso, Tex, Jan. She was go

This was the reason given today by
William G. Russell, vice president OF
the Lubbock, Tex. National bank. and
prominent cattleman, for killing
Charles Quailey. millionaire mining
operator. The shooting occurred last
night in front of the Sheldon hotel
here, and only a Gordon of police and
soldiers hastily thrown around the
building prevented crowd of 5000
from doing Russell violence.
Russell was denied bail this morn
ing, ana asked for a preliminary hear
ing this afternoon.
The killing Is believed to have been
the outgrowth of a personal encounter
between the principals which occurred
New Years day in a hotel here.
Quailey is a brother of Joe Qailye,
prominent New York clubman.
