Berg, nat- uralist, dabbing baking soda on a half score red’ buthps on hand and wrist, “there is one thing a law-abid- 1ng, indlustrious honey bee loathes, it's a phofegrapher.” ' £155 “How come?” Inquired an inquirer, liftingepolite eyebrows. '~ “Flashlights,” |§41d :Miss Berg, ‘em- phatically. And it was flashlights that started a carnival of self-arranged slaughter and.!gent two or three hundréd children and their mothers and teachets milling around a great glassceage in a loop department store. * Insidée the “showcase” was a glass bee- hive and a swarm of sure-enough bees. The swarm belongs to the Society for Visual Education and is part of a nature exhibit installed in the store. It was brought from the Evanston studio of the society by Miss Berg. The puzzers were lured from their winter coma by warmth and food and pet to work making honey in the glass cage for the instruction of public school pupils. Photographers taking pictures of the exhibit aroused the swarm and hundreds began fighting. The colony broke up Into pairs which lashed and clawed: and stung until scores lay dead on the floor. While the excited insects were emerging from the .hive Miss Berk cpened a little door in the outer cage and sought to close the entrance. In an instant her hand and wrist were covered with angry bees which drove their daggers into her flesh. Children and mothers and teachers danced about squeaking warnings. Miss Berg finaily abandoned her effort and the bees fought until exhausted.—Chi- cago Daily News. Objection Overruled. “Hph! Women in politics!” snort- ed the old-timer, *“Makes me sore, I don’t believe in petticoat rule.” “Calm yourself. We don’t wear 'em any more,” replied the modern wom- an sweetly.—Judge.

Since the inaugeration of the protective features of the American ankers Association in 1895, the to- tal reported burglaries and attempt- ed burglaries against non-members have amounted to 2,056, with ag- gregate losses of $3,842, 970.70; those against members were 1,196 with Icpses totaling , $808,641.28, the report stated. Hold ups involving members of the Association since September 1, 3921, amounted to 58 with a loss of $261,709.90, and hold ups involv- ing non-members totaled 28 with a loss of $443,972.30. In the follow- ing states no hold ups were reported; Alabama, Arizona, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia Ken- tucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachu- setts, Mississippi, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, North Car- olina, Rhode Island, South Caroli- na, Vermont, Utah, Wyoming and the District of Columbia. The figures relative to members of the Association were more com- plete, the report pointed out, since members as a rule report all attacks and losses sustained, whereas non- members rarely make such reports.

PIONEER FOR SALE AD PROVES VERY EFFECTIVE “Say tdke that.ad out about the furniture for sale at my store. Peo- ple will think I want to move away from town. They are just bother- ing me to death, and it isn’t my furniture anyway.” Thus spoke Abe Grossman about | a want ad that was run for furni- ture for sale where interested par- ties were to inquire at the store. The furniture was for sale by an- other party who wished to use a well known place for folks to call. Want Ads cost very little—and they DO bring results . HEALTH 1S GOOD FOR FIRST TIHE IN FIVE YEARS Minnesota Man Declares Stub- born Stomach Trouble Dis- appeared Entirely and He Feels Fine Since Taking Tan- lac. «I enjoy good health now for the first time in five years,” said Emil Gilbertson, of Cottonwood, Minn. “Nervous indigestion with kidney pains made me so_run-down I could hardly do my work. After meals I bloated up terribly with gas which | pressed around my heart and hurt me so badly I could scarcely stand it. At night I was so choked up, nervous and racked with pain I couldn’t sleep, just rolled and tossed and even walk- ed the floor, and got up,in the morn- ings feeling like I had just finished a hard day’s work. “But my appetite is back in full| force and I just feel fine since tak- ing Tanlac. My kidneys are all right, and I have been built up in every| way, I believe Tanlac will help any- body.” Tanlac is sold by .all good drug- gists.—Adv.
