observed a Bombus, which had been stripped by the bees of 

 wings, hair, etc., in their vain attempts at removal, also en- 

 cased in this unique style of a sarcophagus, fashioned by 

 the bees. Alcohol, benzine, gasoline, ether, and chloroform are 

 all ready solvents of bee-glue, and will quickly remove it from 

 the hands, clothing, etc. Boiling in water with concentrated 

 lye will remove propolis completely. Even steam and hot 

 water used as a spray have been found to do the same.
