J. Dye & Son farm, for the purpose of per- suading some Joose shingles to aban- don their dissolute ways, and settle down. It requires, concentration, not to say singleness of purpose, to put the fear of the Lord into a flock of shingles whose dispositions have becomes warped and curled at the edges. Mr. Nichols became engrossed in his task, as a shingle savant should. Once in a while he would pause, spit thoughtfully over the side of the barn into an adjacant. pansy bed, after which he would shift his chew, rab his palms on the seat of his navy- blue overalls and resume labor. A feminine bee, buzzing through the summer sunshine, in a yellow and black camel's hair sport sweat- er, caught sight of Mr. Nichols us he bent over his task and made at once in his direction. The bee had mistaken the gable end of Mr. Nichols' personality for a cluster of begonias, Sinking her honey detector into the poeket in which Nich kept his cut plug and his lucky plece, Miss Bee realized almost instantly that her girlish trust and confidence had been violated. Hel hath no fury like a bee bee- trayed, Hastily withdrawing, she fum- bled around in her reticule, took out her grindstone, sharpened the Democratic, or business end of her tail shaft, heated it over a blow torch, backed, off a few paces, start- ed her propeller with an angry buzz and charged. "You cur," *cried the bee, as she struck. "Thy mercy on Thy people, Lord !" cried Mr. Nichols, * As Fabre says: "The bee is small in size, yet perfect in mechanical op- eration." / That is very true. Mr. Nichols dropped his hammer, | From the 1 {Countryside BUNKER'S HILL. Nov. 21.--~The weather has turn- ed quite cold in this district, A aum- ber of the hunters have returned home.

He rose to his full height with a vivid blush on his face, a blister on his personality and in his heart a strong yearning for home. ' And home Mr. Nichols went, but he was never the same again. While the bee had put something into him, it had, at the same time, taken something away. His pride had been hurt. His faith in things had been tampered with. He had always said that nature was grand--and nature had sneaked up behind him on the house top and stung him in the saddest, maddest place a man can be stung. There was but one thing left for Mr. Nichols to do. He did it. He had been stung in July. In Novem- ber, when the frost was on the pump- kin and the fodden in the shock, Mr. Nichéls departed from Kokomo for He died on election day. Along about Thanksgiving time Mrs. Nich- ols and her daughter, known to her friends as Miss Jitney, appeared be- fore the State Industrial Board ask- ing damages under the Workman's Compensation Law. The Board made an award in their favor against the owners of the , Old Man Dye and his young n, "Diamond. Both Mr. Dye and his son were pretty blue. They had contended that a Dee in action comes under the head of An Act of God, like lghtning, or measles, or Fanny Brice's ex-nose. "It was your barn, wasn't said the Board. Old Man Dye said they were dam- right, it was his barn, but it was not his bee. "According to common sense, and in the ordinary dealing between man and man," said the Board, 'that would let you out; but in law it lets you in--for damages. In law, anything that counts is ruled out on the ground that it is incompetent, irrelevant and immaterial." >i it?" be moved to the hospital for an oper- ation is very poorly and word was | VAN RAALTE TALKS ON BEES AND THE LAW "Hell hath no fury like a bee bee-trayed."

"It requires concentration to put the fear of the Lord into a flock of shingles whose dis- positions have become warped at the edges." "But Nichols did not dle from te sting of the bee," said Old Man Dye. "Tnen what did he die of ?" said the Board. Dye said he didn't know. "Very well," said the Board, "the burden of proof is on you. You have not produced the bee to sus- tain your contention. You will therefore have to come across. Heaven may protect the working girl, but this Board is here to see that the working man is not stung with impunity." It was not the money Mr. Dye cared about, it was the principle of the thing. He appealed his case. "The question here," said the Appellate Court, "resolves itself into t considerations: When was Nich- ols stung, and if so, where ? Mrs. Nichols contends that her husband was stung in the month of July. "That's bad." | ~ "Mr. Dye, the appellant, who ad- | mits the sting but denies the place, | has net produced the bee. "fhe tes-| timony 'iscloses that neither has | Mrs. Nichols produced the place that | was stung. | "If we had the bee and the place that was stung we could see if they fit. Not having them, the contention of Mrs. Nichols, the Plaintiff in the original action, becomes Corpus Delicit, Requiescat in Pace, as wel | as Non Compos Mentis.
