OH GIRLS! BEES
 DISLIKE PERFUME
Those Wearing Sweet Things Warned to Steer Clear Of Them

New York, Aug 4.-Ever since a bee census was ordered in Goshen, N. Y, metropolis of the buzzing honey makers, tender hearted persons have been shuddering at the thought of the danger assessors might undergo in plucking each bee from its work room or den and counting 1t. But they might as well stop worrying, for W. E. Thorndyke, who knows bees from stem to dreaded stern, said to- day that all the census takers have to do is count the hives
 Even if they did have to number each bee it wouldn't be so bad" he said Some men could count them one by one and never have to use a mask. Of course, lot would depend on whether the bees were aristocratic. bluebloods. or hybrids. The hybrids are usually the fierce ones. Still, when it comes to getting intimate with bees. discretion is the better part of valor"
 Dislike Perfume.
 Girls with perfume and men who use hair oil, smelly pomades or ScenIe1 IHlCun DelteT get out Ol lHe way whenever they see bee coming. Mir. Thorndylle says He has the ory that the little honey-make7s just naturally dislike certain odors. When bee likes an odor it noses right in to gather raw material for it's manu- featuring plant, but 1t turns its back on disagreeable smells. And when a bee turns it's back, somebody is liable to experience discomforture.
 Bees have domestic troubles, too, and these often put them in a bad humor. It is to ascertain how many of the baby bees at Goshen are suf- fering from foul brood" and causing worry to their queen and their papa bees that the census was ordered.
 Foul brood Is something like sum- ner complaint among human infants, but more devastating. It comes for impure food given during the period of incubation.
 The adult bees are not bothered by the disease, as they thrive whether the larder contains good food or bad. ! But when the queen bee gets sick, | then the physical strain of weakness | affects the whole hive.

 This is often made, as in the sketch, with sleeves and a sash of some con- trasting material-usually lighter stuff than that of the dress itself.
 The sleeve slit to the elbow or shoulder is seen everywhere and Is usually gathered in a cuff at the wrist.
