But the hard working "bumbles" and the busy queens have a most dreadful time with their brothers the A.pathus, or as they aro called, when there's a family row on and every- body is mad -the drones. The drones will not work; to their way of thinking the poorest way to get a living is to Darn it. To be sure they have the very good excuse that Nature didn't give them pollen baskets and they couldn't make honey if they wanted to, but the queens won't listen to this. So just as soon as the flow- ers die and honey gets scarce they open the hive -door to the drone, and then such L row as follows.

When your gaze runs afoul of a male adorned with a wrist watch and Pink socks and a purple necktie, think kind- ly or unkindly of him -it all depends upon whether you swear by Thomas Carlyle or Oliver Wendell Holmes, both of whom have furnished intimate descriptions of the "dandy." Says the former in "Sartor Itesartus:" "A. dandy is a clothes wearing man -a man whose trade, office and exist- ence is the wearing of clothes. Every faculty of his soul, spirit, purse and person Is heroically consecrated to this one object, the wearing of clothes wise- ly and well, so that, as others dress to live, he lives to dress." And now look on the other side of the picture furnished by Holmes: "There was' Alcibiades, the 'curled son of Mins,' an accomplished young man, but what would be called a `swell' in these days. There was Aris- totle, a distinguished writer of whom you have heard -a regular dandy be was. So was Marcus Antoninus, so was Sir Humphry Davy, so was Lord Pal- merston, if 1 am not forgetful. Dan- dies such as 1 was speaking of have rocked this planet like a cradle -aye, and left it swinging to this day." -Phil- adelphia Ledger. Frederickfs War on Coffee. In a manifesto issued by Frederick the Great in 1779 the mighty monarch deplored "the increased consumption of coffee by my subjects and the amount of money that goes out of the country in consequence. Everybody is using coffee. This must no longer be. My subjects must drink beer. His majesty was brought up on beer, and so were his ancestors. innumerable battles have been fought and won by soldiers nourisbed on beer, and the king does not believe that coffee drink- ing soldiers can be depended upon to endure hardships or to conquer his enemies should another war occur." Coffee roasting was made a govern- ment monopoly, and a prohibitive price was charged for the berry. "Coffee smellers" were appointed all over Prus- sia to check- illicit roasting. Coffee was therefore ousted from popular fa- vor. -London Chronicle. places where he makes his home he's greatly admired, not only on account a? the handsome fan he Wears on top of his head, but also because a wing or a leg of 1Iacaw 10 very good eating when it's fricassed or fried.

Why pay out money for having your skates sharpened when you can do it yourself? A11 that is necessary is a good rat-tail file'and a piece of tin, Bend the tin around the file as shown in the sketch and then apply the file to the edge of the skate blade, as is also shown. You can get a file for a small sum --less than the sharpen- ing of the skates cost.' And one file can be used to sharpen skates as long as you live. Is "Mona Lisa" a Copy? Another "Mona Lisa," varying con- siderably from the Leonardo which was stolen from the Louvre, is in the novelist, and its discovery has aroused possession of Mr. Eyre, an Isleworth considerable interest in art 'circles. It is et picture of extraordinary in- terest, and shows the columns on either side mentioned by Vasari, the early Italian art historian. These, columns are also shown In a drawing by Raphael of the "Mona Lisa:" Vasari described the portrait of Leonardo as having "so pleasing an expression *ad the smile so sweat that while looking at it one thinks it rather Divine than human, and the fsleWorth champions contend that this can hardly be said about the Louvre pietas, in which the expres- sion has been variously described as enigmatic and euchanitingly diabolical.
