Honey & Beeswax Market Qaotations. 



CHICAGO, III.. Feb. 7.— The weather has 

 been so cold that it prevented the shipping? of 

 comb, and the trade has been llji:ht to local 

 dealers. Choice white comb sells at 14@15c.

 cellent shape. As a rule, dark grades are

 color, 12®13c.

CHICAGO. III., Dec. 37.— Up to the present 

 the sales on honey have met with our expec- 

 tations. We have received considerably more 

 honey than we figured on handling, owing to 

 the short crop report, and we think the early 

 shippers reaped the benefit. However, we are 

 now getting the average price, viz. : Fancy, 

 15c. ; white. No. 1. 14@13c. Extracted, 6@7c.

Doctor^s Y^\r)\z 



By DR. PEIRO, Ciiioag-o, III. 



Bacilli Scare. 



More than ever is the subject of bacilli 

 being written, which adds greatly to public 

 fear. Why is not the fact stated in this 

 connection, that just as many bacteria live 

 to feast on the others, as the big fish live 

 sumptuously on the little fish. 



Use or tlie Tonsils. 



The question as to what the tonsils are 

 for has puzzled the doctors quite as much 

 as the public. The latest assertion is that 

 the tonsils secrete a species of bacteria that 

 prey upon another kind that dangerously 

 infest the throat ; and that diphtheria is 

 often prevented by the tonsilar secretion. 



Adam's Apple. 



What's Adam's apple ? It is that promi- 

 nent lump that sticks out of some people's 

 throats, just above the neck band of the 

 shirt. It is the frame-work in which the 

 vocal chords — the music-box of humanity, 

 as it were — are located. It is claimed that 

 this projection is an indication of superior 

 adaptation for singing. If so, the voice is 

 most likely to prove more effective in the 

 basso range, because the vocal chords are 

 necessarily longer. The longer the chords, 

 the deeper tones.
