BRIGHT COLORS ATTRACT BEES.

Honey Gatherers Not Drawn by Nec-tar or Perfume.

The inquisitive modern investigatorlias been prying into the secrets of thelittle bee. His curiosity has been re-warded by the discovery that it is thebright color of the flower and not thepresence of the nectar that attractsthe honey-gatherer. In fact, it is quitepossible to coax the be© away fromdull-colored flowers of nature by arti-ficial flowers of brilliant, hues.

As far as nature's flowers are con-cerned. those of the brighter hues al-ways receive more attention titanthose of subdued shades. Moreover,the belief that, the perfume of flowersattracts bees has also been exploded.It is believed that the attraction exer-cised by the form and color of flowersis approximately four times as greatas that exercised by perfume, pollenand nectar taken together.

surmounted by a cross gules flmbritedor edged of the second, and on theunion with Ireland the red croBS, orsaltier of St. Patrick, was introducedand in this modified form the nation-al flag now exists.

has risen to nstonishing bights in thematter of worldly wealth. Mrs. Con-tractor placed her daughters in the St.Peter’s convent with the desire thatthey should take all the extras am!that, no expense should be spared.

She called recently to see how theywere* progressing.

"The only thing your daughtersneed, Mrs. Contractor.” said the sis-ter in charge, “is ambition.”

“Buy it,” replied Mrs. Contractorpromptly. “Never mind the price, buyit for them."—Lippincott s Magazine.

Decidedly “Willin'.”Miss Maude Adams has a favorite

story about a certain "Miss Johiising”and an uncertain "Culpepper Pete,”once known to her. The man. saysMiss Adams, was an unusually bash-ful person, and she goes on:

“Pete became enamored of a duskymaiden, ami not having the courageto ‘pop’ face to face, called up thehouse where she worked and askedfor her over the telephone. When hegot her on the line he asked:

"‘ls dut Miss Johnsiug?'“ ’Ya-as.'‘“Wall. .Miss Johnsing, I’sA got a

How Gorki Was Liberated.The mystery surrounding the release

from jail of Maxim Gorki, who was ar-rested in St. Petersburg as a revolu-tionist, is cleared. The novelist oweshis liberty to Count Witte, president ofthe council of ministers, who drew tip

a report in which the followingpassage occurs: "A severe sentence ofa long imprisonment might deprive theworld and Russia of a creative geniusfrom whom great tilings may yet heexpected. The unprecedented sympa-thy of which lie is the object is a proofof the attention with which the intel-lectual world iollows the development,of Russia, and of the regard which isfelt for the Russian writer outside ofhis own country.”
