An English Honey-Spoon 



Over in old England they 

 have a handy honey-spoon, 

 or at least a spoon that has 

 a device in its handle that 

 will prevent it from drop- 

 ping down in the jar of hon- 

 ey on the dining-table, thus 

 soiling the fingers and spoil- 

 ing the table-cloth. It is a 

 very ingenious idea, and 

 should have extensive de- 

 mand among honey-consu- 

 mers, especially bee-keep- 

 ers. It is well plated on 

 high-class nickel, and has 

 a beautiful raised design 

 on tlie upper side of the 

 handle, as indicated in 

 the picture herewith. 

 We have secured some 

 of tliese very unique 

 spoons, and will mail 

 itliem at 00 cents each. 

 l( )r, we will send spoon 

 !id the American Bee 

 [Journal one year— both 

 1 for Si. 50. 



The spoon would be 

 fine as a gift for Christ- 

 mas, birthdays, etc. 



The editor of the Bee 

 Journal has used one of 

 these spoons for a num- 

 ber of months in the 

 honey-glass which is al- 

 ways on his table, and he would not like to 

 be without this spoon again, as it is so con- 

 venient, and also unusual in this country. 

 We can fill orders promptly now. You cer- 

 tainly would be pleased with this honey- 

 spoon, and so would anyone to whom you 

 might present it. Send all orders to,
