Strength of tho Busy Bee.
Observations made to test this
question showed that bees can carry
with ease twice their weight in honey.
Several bees were caught as they re^
turned to their hives laden Tflth honey,
and, after inclosing them in a little
box, they were carefully weighed.
When the bees unloaded their honey
they were again caught, placed in the
same bos and weighed a second time.
This experiment showed that the bees
when laden weighed three times as
much as when empty. It was, therefore proved that a bee can carry twice
its own weight in honey and can fly
very long distances with that weight.
Ia Mitigation.
"The complaining witness says you
started the quarrel by telling him you
would hate to be found dead with such
a shirt on as he was wearing." "So I
tvould, your honor. I'd hate to be
found dead any way you could fix it."
—Chicago Tribune.

White Han Turned Yellow-
Givat consteruatiou was felt by the
friends of M.- A. Bogarty.r.of Lexington,
Ky., when they saw he was turning yellow. Bis skin slowly changed color,
also his eyes, and he suffered terribly.
His maladyWas yellow Jaundice. He
vyas treated by J,he best doctor's, but
without benefit. Then he "was advised
to try Electric Bitters, the wonderful
Stomach and Liver Remedy, and he
writes: * "After faking two bottles I
was wholly cured." A trial proves its
matchless merit for all Stomach, Liver
and Kidney troubles. Only 50e. Sold
by Lister & Sheeder, druggist.

Cut Both Ways.
In an interval in the drilling one of
the volunteers belonging to *i crack
regiment stepped out from the ranks
to light a cigar from that of his officer. The latter took this evidence
of the democratic spirit of freedom in
good part, hut said by way of a hint:
"In the regular army you couldn't
have done this to an officer, Brown."
"Eight ycu are," responded the private, "but iu the regular army you
could not be an . officer."—Collier's

J. Stout of Consumption has created
intense excitement in Cam mack, Ind.3'
writes Marion Stuart, a leading druggist of Muncie, Ind., ."She only

Yorklown said she must soon die.
Then she' began to use Dr. Kings New
Discovery and gained 37 pounds in
weight*and was completely cured." Tt

Scissors and Cardboard
A Vicksburg woman sat up until 12
o'clock the other night waiting for her
husband to come. At last weary and
worn out waiting she went to her bedroom to retire and found the missing
husband fast asleep. Instead of going
out he had gone to his room. She was
so mad that she wouldn't speak to him
for a week.—Plymouth Mail.
A farmer had rid his place of rats by
sprinkling powered lye in their paths.
Ue claims it poisons -neither the-rats
nor anything else; that when the rats
travel through it, the stuff sticks to
their feet, burning; them and they lick
it off, then getting it on their tongue
and the consequecoe is they go "visiting" and don't return. Simple and
sure remedy.-^-Ex.
An exchange very truthfully says
that the village dealer has about as
hard a row to hoe as any man on earth,
and he has got to look pleasant and
hang onto the hoe handle no matter
what happens. If i< pastor's Salary is a
little short tbe business man must fix
it. If John Jones loses a horse Mr.
Business Man must help to get another.
If a celebration is going ou he must
dig up some more. If a beggar comes
along he is the first man tackled.
An exchange tells ol the following
scheme that is being worked on old
soldiers. Three persons are engaged
in the work. They approach their intended victim and offer to sell him a
book containing his war record aud to
be accompanied by a certificate,, which
w.feen properly filled out will enable
his widow or children to receive his
pension wilhout the usual tedious process. The old soldier has simply to
pay a dollar down and two more ou the
delivery of the book. Our advice to
old soldiers is not to bite.
Tbe following has been going the
rounds and its up to the Plymouth
miuister now: A Northville minister
found his people loo poor to purchase
hymn books* and being offered the same
book by a patent medicine house provided they be allowed to insert their
advertisement, ordered three dozen for
his congregation. He vvas elated upon
receiving them to find no advertisement in the same. The next Sunday
he distributed the books telling his
brethren of his good fortune and requesting that they sing 119. His chagrin may be imagined when they sang
the hymn, "Hark, the heavenly angels
sing, Johnson's pills are just the thing.
The angelic voices meek and mild—
two for a man and one for a child."—
Plymouth Mail.
Prof. McKone called attention to the
peculiarities of spelling of proper names
5'esterday, r,nd then the teacher's institute students registered. The first
card to go in carried the name of
Arthur McGuinnes, and the next name
Mabel McGuinness. This was a stunner, and the professor remarked again
about how proper names are spelled.
Then he found a card with the name
Alice McGioness. He managed to get
through the forenoon, aud at the close
of the session called for anyone who
had not registered to do so. Among
the cards he found one for Elizabeth
McGuinis" and that made him sick.
When he turned up another card and
found the name Clara McGLnis he uear-
ly expired. If he recovers sufficiently
the institute will progress as usual today.—Times.
After all that has been said about
special delivery stamps the ordinary
individual knows very little about
them, or if he does, he forgets tbe
great convenience offered by these ten-
cent stamps. There was a time when
cities made their brags that they had
dispatch companies in their midst.
Here is something that, requires membership fee, and which is just as good,
backed by the government. AU that
is necessary is a special delivery stamp
on a letter, andit will be delivered by
special messenger immediately upon
its arrival in the postolfiee. If a local
drop letter, with one of these special
delivery stamps affixed is put into a
box oc the postoffice it is sent out at
once. Thus for 12 cents, the 2-cent
regular stamp and 10 cent special delivery stamp, a messenger is sent out
with the letter, and upon the delivery
of the letter a receipt is given, if
people want to know to a certainty that
their letters are received tbey should
use a special delivery stamp.—Chelsea
Standard.

Plymouth Binding Twine
A Comparative Statement showing the Cost and Value of Binding
Twine, based on the supposition that a farmer needs, to bind his grain,
300 pounds of Plymouth Sisal, or Standard Twine, which runs 505 feet
to the pound.
Three hundred pounds of Plymouth Standard or Sisal will give him
151,500 feet. *
151,500 ft. of.505 ft. to the lb., weighs 800 lbs. @ 14c will cost $42.00
151,500 ft. of 480 ft. to the lb., weighs 315J lbs. @ 14c will cost §44.19
151,500 ft. of 470 ft. to the lb., weigbs 322J lbs. @ 14c willcost §45.13
151,500 ft. of 450 ft. to the lb., weighs 336"-} lbs. @ 14c will cost §47.13
151,500 ft. of 430 ft. to the lb., weighs 352J lbs. @ 14c will cost §49.33
We have recently tested twine sent us for examination, that averaged
. a little less than 430 feet to the pound.
the PLYMOUTH Twines are the only ones of these grades that run
505 feet to the pound. You saye by buying them, over the lowest
grade,'§7.33 on 300 pounds, or §2.44 per 100; or 2 44-100 cents per
pound. Therefore, if Plymouth sells for 14 cents per pound, the other
should selifor 11 66-100 cents, to be as cheap, and others in proportion
The Moral is. buy PLYMOUTH Twine, and save money, and the
annoyance of loose bundles, caused by poor twine.
