They are very large and strong. have a helmet made of enormous black pearls. two lofty quivering plumes, a doublet of lrld.% cent. yellowish velvet, 11 heroic tuft and a fourfold mantle, translucent and rigid. While the workers have 12.000 facets to their eyes, the drones are gifted with 2(1.000; while the workers have 5,000 olfactory cavities In their antenna', the drones have over BTMjOO. While the workers are laboring for the benefit of the community the drones sail o!T every bright morning Into space. Irresistible, glorious, and tranquilly make for tbc nearest dowers, where they sleep till the afternoon freshness awakes them.

A curious feature of a model's occu pation Is her p.ning lor an artist who Is painting route mo else. Wealthy people are capricious and often do net care to give long sittings. Therefore*, after the artist has caught tlie expres sion of ihe face, he will call In a model to pose for tlie figure. tbun* models 3*> not .-are to do this, as purt of tltelr eujoyment of their occupation .•onalsta lu roving themselves reproduced on canvas, but there ure others who are* quite willing to help fill out. Various models have curious points of excellence, ami often a painter will employ at different stages In the prog- ress of his work from three to four models for otic figure on his canvas. One model is known for her coloring, another I'cr her bands, another for her hair. An artist generally notea In his address t>ook the characteristics of a model after her name. These quota tions are taken at random from an artist’s address liook: "Fine young Jewess.*’ “English. tall and slim, blood, costume;” 'Hood buck.’’ "Good figure, short legs. Ivory tone." - Cosmopolitan. Ratllsklm Afraid of Cows. It will probably not surprise our renders to hear that most Spanish hull- fighters object to fighting cows. The real reason may. however, astonish them. A sportsmanlike objection to persecuting a female animal has noth ing whatever to do with It. The fact Is that tlie avepage toreador la sincerely afraid of a row. And be has good reason. The cows of the half wild breed used for the arena are much quicker In their movements than are the hulls. Their horns ure more pointed and more formidable. They do not lower tlielr heads to tlie ground, shut their eyes and charge like a locomotive upon the rails, but are alrrt and ready to follow swery move- meut of their persecutor*. Tltelr war like tactics have been adapted not to Mind, bovine frontal attacks, but to the strategy of active and cunning beasts of prey, of which the human bullfighter la only a feeble mimic. If those Wiesp Idols of tl |u Spanish populace would face young and active wild cows which bnd just been robbed of their calves, they mlgtu perhaps forestnll the hutch- j er. hut they weald. At any rats, dp i something ta earn their fennels.— tal ion’s.

April It) Is the great fete day of “Bn- luklt.” or plnce of fishes. This Is a small church situated ourslde the walls of Constantinople, and It enjoyed no particular reputation before the con quest of Constantinople by tlie Turks. At the time of the Invasion, however, a monk wns cooking some fish there when n messenger came and told him tlmt the Turks had entered Constanti nople. The monk did not believe the story and said be would sooner believe that the half cooked fish would Jump back into the water. As he spoke the fish Jumped back )nto the water, and ! since then the place has had a great | reputation for Its healing power*. r j A church has been built over tlie I spring dedicated to “Our Lady of the ! Fishes," and on this day a regular pil- | primage takes place from all parts ot I the town. Many slek are carried thlth- | er. and many miraculous cures are re j ported. The truth of the story Is proved by the presence in a large martde lined , tank I11 the church of the lineal de- { srendnnts of the half cooked fish.
