ADVANCED BEE-VEIL

All Cotton, 50c ; Silk Face, 60c ; All Silk, 90c 



Made oE Imported French Tulle Veilintr: cord ar- 

 rangement which permits wearer to handle bees in 

 shirt-sleeves with no chance of bees crawlinn up 

 and under veil. With a hat of fair-size brim to 

 carry veil away from face, you are as secure from 

 stings, movements as free and unrestricted, and as 

 cool and comfortable as you 

 would be at a summer resort. 



Please send me two more hee-vells. I have tried 

 all kinds, and yours are best of all— N.E. Prance.

Editorial Comment In Bee-Keepers' Review:— 

 The Advanced Bee -Veil Is something- I have 

 worn with great comfort the past few weeks. 

 The peculiar feature of the veil is, the edges are 

 held down firmly on the shoulders away from 

 the neck. This does away with all chance of 

 stings, and the hot. suffocating", uncomfortable 

 feeling found in other veils that are tucked In 

 close about the neck.— W. Z. Hi'tchixsox.

Celluloid Queen-Buttons 



These are very pretty things for bee-keep- 

 ers or honey-sellers to wear on their ro:it- 

 lapels. They often serve to introduce the 

 subject of honey, which might frequently 

 lead to a sale. 



Note. — One bee-keeper writes: "I have 

 every reason to believe that it would be a 

 very good idea for every bee- 

 keener to wear one [of these 

 buttons], as it will cause peo- 

 I>le to ask questions about 

 the busy bee, and many a 

 conversation thus started 

 wind up with the sale of 

 more or less honey; at any 

 rate it would give the bee- 

 keeper a superior opportu- 

 nity to enlighten many a person in regard to 

 honey and bees." 



The picture shown above is a reproduc- 

 tion of a motto queen-button that we offer 

 to bee-keepers. It has a pin on the under- 

 side to fasten it.
