BIG BEE RANCH IN 'FRISCO
Public School Principal of Coast City
Harvests a Third of a Ton
of Honey a Season.
There Is a bee ranch with more thao
1,000,000 bees in the heart of one of the
densest residence districts of San Fran
cisco, It is owned by Philip Prior, prin
cipal of a public school, and is in the
little back yard of bis home. For ten
years he has kept his bees there, has
harvested about a third of a ton of
honey each season and ha* been at no
expense for food for his interesting and
Industrious pets Although it Is a dis
tance of two and one-half miles from
the Prior bee ranch to Golden Gate park,
the bees make the trip there, collect
loads of honey and get. back to the hiva
In two minutes, making a bullet-like
flight at the surprising rate of 150 miles
an hour. Mr Prior has demonstrated
this by having an observer watch cer
tain bee-favored places in the park and
exactly timing the arrival there of bees
he purposely sprinkled with flour a*
they issued from a hive He has also
kept time on the absence of the whitened
bees.
BIG PROFIT IN BATHHOUSE
----
Average New York Seashore Resort
Receives Nearly $2,000 a Day
• for Rooms Alone.
If you doubt that the nickel and quar
ter business doesn't pay, consider the
money-making propensities of the aver
age seashore bathhouse around New
York, and make over your opinion. A
representative bathing paviiion has
1,500 bath compartments. It costs 20
cents to rent one. On a medium hot
summer's day some $800 are derived
from renting these rooms, for the corn
part mcnt.s are used In the course of the
day by about 4,000 persons. Bathing
suits rent for 25 cents each There,
would be 8.000 of them for such a pavil
ion, which means $1,000 a day if half of
them are rented once; and it is fair to
assume that, three-fourths of the 4,000
bathers pay five cents for the use of a
comb and brush—$150. A total of near
ly $2,000, to say nothing of the proceeds
from restaurant, bar. barber shop and
Indoor baths .. .j
Italy’s Emigrants.
In the past 30 years Italy ha* sent
more than 2,000,000 persons to th«
United States, says the World's Work, j
A number of these have returned in the
course of time, taking with them care- ]
fully hoarded savings. A very large ’
majority have remained in the United
States.
Japs Drink Much Water.
A gallon of water a day is drunk by
every Japanese who practices, as nearly
all do, the gymnastics known as Jiujitsu.
ASPARAGUS HAS A LINEAGE
komans Held Vegetable in High Es
teem Many Years Before
Christ.
Of all food plants there is none which
ha* been so long known or been pos
sessed of so distinguished a lineage a*
the asparagus, its records reach back
almost to the beginning of authentic his
tory, and it is mentioned by the comic
po*t Cratinus. who died about 41tt> B C.
The Romans held the vegetable *n high
“eteeni. The elder Cato wrote a work
which is still extant. "De re Rustlca.'*
and it treats at lengt h of the virtues aud
proper cultivation of asparagus Pliny,
in bis natural history, written about
60 A. D., bas much to say about it. He
feelingly observe*; * Of all the products
of your garden your chief care should be
asparagus," and he devotes several
chapters to its many good qualities and
the best methods of raising it. Ha as
serts that the soil about Ravenna was so
favorable to its production that three
heads grown tn that district had been
known to weigh a Roman pound. Thi*
pound seems to have been about equal
to 11 ounces in our day, so it would ap
parently have taken four of the stalk*
to have reached a pound of our weight.
The asparagus being essentially a
southern plant, it Is possible that the
stock growing in Italy was of a more
vigorous growth than that of our north
ern clime It is found al! around the
shores of the Mediterranean and
branches off into four or five distinct
species besides t’ne one ordinarily used
for edible purposes.

i Remember the Lesson of the Epidemic of 1898
In all sections where yellow fever made its appearance in
18^8 it will be recalled that persons who kept their
1 liver and bowels strong and active were not affected by the !
i disease; while other, apparently healthy were stricken aown. ;
* . These latter were all more or less constipated, bilious or victim,
: of bad digestion. As a result the blood became impure and
i 1 the vital organs unable to resist the deadly fever germs. Now !
! ' is the time to ge- in shape to resist the disease. Every man
| vou meet may be infected with the germs and if you put your j
preparations oft from day to day you may be tor . -e The
i sensible course is , begin at once taking Prickly —v fitters; •

tional regularity in the bowels, thus permanently removing this disease breeding condition.
Begin the work right Cleanse the system of impurities and get your blood, liver and
bowels in fighting trim. Through the use of Prickly Ash Bitters, the world’s greatest System Tonic and
Biood Purifier, you cun lay in a supply of vim and energy that at this critical time is more valuable than gold.

Bloating after eating. Wind on the Stomach, Indigestion, Heartburn, Headache, Nervous Weakness, Faint
Feeling, Dizziness.
IT IS THE REMEDY to use in the YELLOW FEYER DISTRICT

resists the dbea-e germs. It will also drive out that drowsy, half-sick feelin^, sweeten the breath, remove sal
