THE BEE=HIVE CLOCK 



Only $2.50, f.o.b. Chicago, by express. Weight, with packing, about 4 lbs. 

 Ready for delivery Dec. 15. 



We have had made specially for our readers, a bronze-metal Clock, called " The Bee- 

 Hive Clock." It is about 8 inches wide at the base, about 10 inches high, and deep enough 

 at the base to stand firmly on a mantel or elsewhere. It is a beautiful piece of work, and would 

 be both ornamental and very useful in any house, and particularly in a bee-keeper's home. 



The clock part itself is warranted for 3 years to keep good time. So it is no plaything, 

 but a beautiful and needful article for everybody. 



Clocks like " The Bee-Hive Clock " usually sell in the stores at from §4.00 to $5.00 each, 

 but having them made for us in large quantities enables us to offer them at .53.50 each by ex- 

 press, or with the Weekly American Bee Journal a year— both for only $3.00. Either Clock or 

 Journal would make an ideal gift. 



Here is something that surely is appropriate for 

 bee-keepers— " The Bee-Hive Clock." Better get your order in quick— first come first served 

 out of the first lot of Clocks.

Forty Years Among the Bees, by Dr. 



C. C Miller. — This look contains 328 pages, 

 is pound in handsome cloth, with gold letters 

 and design ; it is printed on best book-paper, 

 and illustrated with 112 beautiful original 

 half-tone pictures, taken by Dr. Miller him- 

 self. It is unique in this regard. The first 

 few pages are devoted to an interesting bio- 

 graphical sketch of Dr. Miller, telling how he 

 happened to get into bee-keeping. Seventeen 

 years ago he wrote a small book, called "A 

 Year Among the Bees," but that little work 

 has been out of print for a number of years. 

 While some of the matter used in the former 

 book is found in the new one, it all reads like 

 a good new story of successful bee-keeping 

 by one of the masters, and shows in minutest 

 detail just how Dr. Miller does things with 

 bees. Price, ¥1.00.
