Tice bee upholds 1110 reputation for in• dustry throughout the winter months as well as during the summer. Being susceptible to cold, the bee must turn to his colony for warmth. Commun• lent. which in bees Is so 1112017 do- velopei1 in the storing of food and, car - leg for tine young, le also the basis for the heating system. It was found by experiment that only the shell of the cluster made by the bees in cold weather is compact. This is formed by oue to several lay- ers of bees all solidly arranged with tl.leir• heads inward, their hairs inter lacing. This arrangement is perfect for conservation of the beat within. Except for an occasional shifting of position the bees forming the shell are quiet. But within the sllell strange things are going on. It is here that the heat is generated. And the antics are not unllkc our own when we are cold, The bees are pack• ed loosely wtthlu the shell so' that there is plenty of space for mauy bees to be exercising at a time. Rapid fanning of the wings, shaking tbe body from side to side, rapid breathing and other movements are all part of the scheme for raising the temperature, In ono particular instance, wheu a bee had been rapidly fanning with his wings for seven and a half minutes, the thermometer nearest him rose hall a degree 3'.—Pearson's Weekly. 1 1 IOW AUCTION SALE. —OFID — Farm Stock, Implements, and Household Effects.

JOHN PURVI5, Auctioneer Thursday, j i ly 13, 1916 The Mystery of a Duel. Having fought his duel and saved his honor by tiring a shot in the air, the editor of a French provincial newspa per went back to his desk. and the In cadent had. quite left his mind when he felt something strange in his thigh Ile looked and found that he was bleed- ing profusely. A doctor was called, who discovered that a bullet was *im- bedded in the editor's thigh some two Inches deep and required extraction "Why was this not taken notice of on the spot where the duel took place?" he asked. The editor was as much in the dark as the doctor. At the moment of the duel he had fired irate the air, and his adversary also took a distract- ed sort of nim. The editor felt nothing as he left the field and had shaken hands with his antagonist as a•sign of reconciliation. How a bullet came to be lodged in his thigh was simply one of the mysteries of dueling. Johnny Roche's Tower. Standing on the banks of the river Awberg, between Mallow and Fermoy, County Cork, Ireland, is a remarkable edifice known as "Johnny Roche's Tower." The whole tower was built by the labor of one man, who subse- quently resided in it. This individual, who received no education whatever, also erected a mill, constructing the water wheel after a special design of his own. Long before the'introduction of the bicycle be went about the coup. try in a wheeled vehicle of his own construction propelled by foot power. His last feat was to build his tomb in the middle of the river bed. John Roche died, but was not interred in the strange burying place which he select- ed for himself, his less original rela- tives deeming such a mode of sepul- ture unchristian.—London Strand Mag a zine. The Horseshoe Legend. Here is an explanation of the old horseshoe superstition: St. Dunstan was a skilled farrier. One day while at work in his forge the devil entered in disguise and requested Dunstan to shoe his "single hoof." The saint, al- though he recognized his malign cus- tomer, acceded, but caused him so much pain during the operation that Satan begged him to desist. This St. Dunstan did, but only after he had made the evil one promise that neither be nor any of the lesser evil spirits, his servants, would ever molest the inmates of a house where the horse- shoe was displayed. s Tho Coffee Plant's Friend.
