THE

HONEY-BEE.

"A bee amongst the flowers in spring, is one of the cheerfulest objects that can be looked upon. Its life appears to be all enjoyment: so busy and so pleased."-PALEY.

[graphic]

"What well appointed commonwealths! where each
Adds to the stock of happiness for all;

Wisdom's own forums! whose professors teach
Eloquent lessons in their vaulted hall!
Galleries of art! and schools of industry!

Stores of rich fragrance! Orchestras of song!

What marvellous seats of hidden alchymy!

How oft, when wandering far and erring long,

Man might learn truth and virtue from the BEE!"-Bowring.

Note.-The lower shelf in the above cut will be found useful for holding one or more shallow pans of water. Vide page 50.
