The at Silverthora's, April 4, 5, and 7, Friday, 9 The precepts of Renjamin Kranklin are frtely used in connection with im pressing the lessons of the benefits of thrift. This has been spoiled by the assertion that if everyone were as penurious and close-fisted with their money as the old philosopher advised there wouldn't be enough pennies in circulation to make change at the postoffice and the advancement of the!;' 'n!i; world would be set back to the plane of a community of misers.

From time immemorial, and possibly longer, the bee has been a synonym of pro ductive industry and-a model for man kind. ''H-ow doth the little busy bee, etc."? JJow doth she, imhed! According to recent observations of ineverent, hard-beaded, practical .ohserwrs, t hit is the way she dolh: She goes around gathering honey fur two shining hours, and' thin she sneaks home to the hive and lays inf, stuffing herself from her store 'of sweettj, and la.ily working her wingf just enough to keep herself .cool sweet food being heating, as every body knows. .She arts precisely like the idle xVomeiv we sometimes read about who spend the afternoon dip; ping into a handy bon-bon box and furnishing motive power to a palm leaf fan. ' After a while this gormandizing lethargy palls on Mrs. I See. The con centrated food she consumes pmduecw H i much energy that she just has to get outdoors and work it off, some how. So she proceeds to take the only exercise she knows anything about, and makes her flower-rounds again. Two hours on duty and two off sceniK to be her usual schedule. The ex pei'tn say they have yet to find the bee that puts in an eight-hour day. There is only one hope left tint fti't.
