BEES HOUSED IN COTTAGES"
Lithuanian Ralsers of Honey Furnish
Really Attractive Homes for
the Insects.

Bcehives In Lithuania are not the
comfortable round iglooliSe huts that
are commonly used In America. They
are built very much like the Lithu-
aninn home. with slantlng gable and
quaint doorway
The cottages which they build are
considerably larger than the round
American hives. Double walls are
built 50 that protective warmth
may be kept in the hives ana prevent
the bees from freeing during the ex-
treme sold Of the long winters. Pine
wood l. always used because II is sup
posed to be greater protection
against cold and because 1t is the most
common tree in the forest lands OF the
country.
Il is 10 the coloring OF the hives that
the Lithuanian asserts his Individual
ity. The life OF the Lithuanian has
been starved Of liberty aud self-ssser-
tion during centuries. He has been
oppressed by Germans and he has
beer oppressed by Russians-not only
his art and his literature but even his
language has bcen suppressed.
During the years Of oppression one
Of ihe chief nInuserueuts and art me
diums was the painting Of hives. The
highest degree OF artistic beauty was
often realized Color combinations OF
originality and richness were striyed
for. And it is notable that bee
farmer tried As many different schemes
as possible. - as to dinerentiate the

HOLD TIGER IN HIGH HONOR
Natives Of the East Garry Their Rev
erence for Monarch OF the Jungle
to Extremes.

OF all the animals deiiied in the
East none is regarded with more awe
than My Lord Tiger Especially
throughout siam and Indo-Chlna, the
tiger is king. Shrines are built and
sacrifices made To him: he Is as sa-
cred from the attack OF the natives
ns is the white elephant of Siam.
II there are fewer tigers In this part
Of the East today II is due largely to
the efforts Of western sportsmen. who
occu slonally can persuade, bribe oi
threaten few natives TO aid them in
"a hunt. Any such lack OF respect on
the part OF the natives is, however
looked upon frowningly by their neigh
bors, who seem to fear that the tiger
will forget the exact individual who
attacked him and remember only the
community.
Native reverence goes so far as to
allow tiger TO prowl undisturbed
about village night after night. at
tarking and sometimes killing those
so unfortunate as to cross his path.
In toe day the sacred beast retlres to
his mountain domain where he stays
entirely hidden until nightfall
It is Obvious that the royal tiger
rules entirely by fear. Awe-inspirlng
he IS himself, and his supremacy Is
helped along by the attitude Of the ma
lives To the tiger are attributed all
manner Of supernatural powers. It is
held that he always knows and tracks
down those who offend him; IL is be
licvcd he can even turn himself into
human being the better TO seek out
his enemies.

Facts of evolution.

The monkey. the ape and the goril-
Ia were all included with man In the
line Of evolution followed by Prof
Elliott smith In a late British Royal
Institution lecture. The domination
of mammals over other primitive ami
mails was given by the senses Of Vi
sion, touch and hearing, and the grad
ual development of these senses and
minor brain faculties could be traced
from the Miocene period to the an
thropold apes and to man. The prim-
tive structure of remote ancestors is
better preserved In man than in any
other mammal His particular group
Of primates has never ucen compelled
tn turn aside from natural develop
ment, while others, like the gorilla
and the gibi on. have acquired special
characteristics Of linn or agility to
avoid extinction. Primitive man prob
ably came into existence somewhere
in the region of Asia between India
and China. He was wanderer, and
had nothing to tx him in one spot un-
I'll he became civilized and regular
