KNOW BEES HAVE LANGUAGE
Possible to Distinguish Gamut OF
Sounds, but That 10 the Limit
OF All Certainty.

Certain rs II may seem that the bees
communicate with each other. we know
not whether this be done in human
fashion. 1t Is possible even that their
own refrain may be inaudible to them; ;
the murmur that comes to us heavily
laden with perfume of honey, the &c.
static whisper OF fairest summer days
that the beekeeper loves so well, the
festival song of labor that rises and
falls around the hive In the festival Of
the hour, and might almost be the
chant OF the eager flowers, hymn OF
their gladness and echo OF their soft
fragrance, the voice Of the white car
nations, the marJoram, and the thyme.
They have, however, a whole gamut Of
sounds that We can distinguish, rang.
Ing from profound delight TO menace,
distress and anger; they have the ode
Of the queen, the song of abundance,
the psalm Of grief and the long and
mysterious war-crles. In any
event they seem not the least dis.
turbed at the noises we make near the
hive; but they regard these perhaps
as not of their world, and possessed OF
no interest to them, 1t is possible that
we on our side hear only fractional
part Of the sounds the bees produce.
and they have many harmonles to
which our ears are not attuned.-M

Mango trees line the roads on the

said to have no rival in sweetness,
flavor, dellcousness and food value.
Under these trees the village school
Is kept In the forenoon, and the vii
lage children learn to love them from
their childhood.
Nature Is very prolific In the tropics,
for one mango tree may yield almost
