An English Honey-Spoon 



Over in old England they 

 have a handy honey-spoon, 

 or at least a spoon that has 

 a device in Us handle that 

 will prevent it from drop- 

 ping down in the jar of hon- 

 ey on the dining-table, thus 

 soiling the finders and spoil- 

 ing the table-cloth. It is a 

 very ingenious idea, and 

 should have extensive de- 

 mand amon^ honey-consu- 

 niL-rs, especially bee-keep- 

 ers. It is well plated on 

 high-class nickel, and has 

 a beautiful raised design 

 on the upper side of the 

 handle, as indicated in 

 the picture hL-rewith. 

 We have secured some 

 of these very unique 

 spoons, and will mail 

 them at Qo cents each. 

 Or. we will send spoon 

 and the American Bee 

 Journal one year— both 

 for $1.50. 



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,
