The Impetus Whtch Iias Borne It Through Succestsve Stage of Orowth. Now, we don't mean the groat busi ness bustle which belongs to the early fall and winter trado, nor the groat bustle of the humming and whirling iarts of uanufacturing onergy. We mean tho great bustlo of modern fash ion. Nothing has outstripped the bustle in its gig antic stride for prodigious excel Ience. It is paradtoxical that this "out ward form'' of fashion, which has novor been literally in front, has still loft all modistie rivals behind. We can recall when this startlingly reproductive fruit received the distinct nipettus which has borno it through r,ucccs5iVe ;ttges to the present oxtraor (iinary condition of tovelopment. The bustle got a wondrous impetus from an accident and alarm of the war. Wo Iave intently observed its onward mttarch toward immensity for more than t wenty years; and, now that it has grown ltrgo enough to comprehend this cotumentary, we pay to lta historic origin our respectful complimoits. 'l'he bustle of the war period in the Soul i was cut crescent-shaped, was it and-sewed, and was then padded through an optn end with cotton or sawXdust. It was a modest, unobtrusive bustle in its manners and when proper ly aljusted was quite invisible to the wearer and nearly so to the world. Like certain lunar eclipses, it could be v iewel only from a very limited area. When Sherman's Christian battalions wVre beaten through the backways of or ia anl the Carolinas it was tie edt, for prudential reasons, best to depHo it dotuestic treasuro, such as iloney awd valuables, whore they would not, confront thoso patriots. It was not at first suspected that the soldiers would appropriato theso cfl'ects, but it was feared that the gilt bric-a-brao, and brooch, and bracelet jewelry might at tract their admntiration and impede their mtatrch by tonpting them to stop and examine the precious wares. \When brou ht into full relief by pow crful fltht lien es it was at last seen that Sheruiii 's Ciiristian battalions were an atimn '. f itnc ntinent, kleptomaniacs, ail that. new inigenuities would be in const:aii need to escape Iheir keen and neutle nit buds of detoecting the secret p1aeCof iddentct treasures. Ilii p laces were utmuerOUs in truth, but their instincts for stealago were iuite as diverso and quits as ninl v. At this crisis the bustle played a hi9 torie part. It. becatme a safi-despo it for imperil e'd jewelry Issessionts. lioth cotton anti sawdust. bustles were now broligtt into i new use. They were r;tie and rid of their waste, :unti then were rewaldedt, but this time with smttall wares and valued gems. Two :thin rmal eflects followed, the first lein:" a iisturbance of the synmetry :t iratvIty 'of tihe former bustle, the ;.scond in tg a marked incease in its rportions. 'T'iis tade it the more ot isen ble, a id this, too, led to its event tet I tetection by certian of the sol tlierS, wi hicl ii iscoVcry cal uli latecl in the theft of mnianty bustles, together jwith their pritlous and highly-prized con Ienti.

The bustle was the admiration of one of the main thor oughfares of Augusta. Tho lady turned 1 to gaao upon the elegant stationary in the Chronicle windows. Being then on r a profilo the effect was at its best. She t wore a terra cotta chimney of hat and with the prolongation of her bodsy I growing out of the now "pneumatic' bust,le resembled very closely a rural l summer cottage with a stove flue fixed at one end. Modisticiar has indeed trenched closely on anatomical perfec tion when an exquisite fenle form can ho mado to counterfeit a farmi shanty with a ventilating shaft at the gable. The department of agriculture will confer a national blessing by distribut ing the seed of this bustle free. We should like to alternate the pneumnatic variety of adjustable bustle with Ber muda grass or Bermuda onions. (rccnsboro (Ga.) Ilon Journal. Tho Boe's 8t ina a Use ful Tool. A new champion has arisen to defend the honey boo from the obloquy under which it has always rested. Mr. Wn. F. Clarke, of Canada, claims to nave discovered, from repeated observations, that the most important function of the bee's sting is not stinging. In at recent article ho says: My observations and reflections have convinced me that the most important office of the bee sting is that which is performed in doing the artistic cell work, capping the comb, and infusing the formic acid by means of which honey receives its keeping qualitie.:. As I said at Detroit, the sting is reall- a skillfully contrived little trowel, wi h which the bee finishes off and caps the cells when they aro filled brimful of honey. This explains why honey ex tracted before it is capped over does not keep well. The formic acid has not beon injected into it. This is done in the very act of putting the last touches on the cell work. As the little pliant trowel is worked to and fro with such dexterity, the darts, of which there are two, pierce the plastic cell surface and leave the nectar beneath its tiny drops of the fluid which makes it keep well. This is the "art preservative" of honey. A most wonderful provision of nature, truly! Heroin we soo that the sting and the poison bag, with which so many of us would like to dispense, are essential to the storage of our coveted plroduct, and that without theta the beautiful comb honey of commerce would be a thing unknown. If these things are so, how mistaken those peoplo are who suppose that a bee is, liko the Prince of Evil, always going about prowling in search of a victim. The fact is that the bee attends to its own business very diligently, and has no time to waste in unnecessary qual rels. A bee is like a farmer working with a fork in his hay field. lie is fully occupied, and very busy. If mssolestcd or meddlod with, he wilt be very apt to defend himself with the imploneiit he is working with. 1'his is what the bee does; and man, by means of his knowl edge of the naturo and habits of this wondrous little insect, is enabled, in most cases, to ward oil or evade at : aek.
