make wax. The was is an oily :ccrcction
which exudes in small scales from the rings
of their bodies, and is skilfully fashioned
into the waxcn cells. \Vax is really nothing
else but bee—fut, and when made into candles
burns,as we know, with a pure and brilliant
flame.
It is another popular fallacy that bees are
viciously disposed and prone to sting. I may
say with truth, that bees are no moreinclinctl
to sting than a peaceable man. They carry
with thrm, indeed, the daggers with which
nature has armed them for self-defence, but
unless irritated or meddled with by intru-
ders, seldom offer attack. One who is ac-
customed to their habits: may manage a
large apiary, and handle them with impunity.

Moreover, it isby no means certain that
the success of the workmen in demanding an
invariable eight hour rule will be really a
benefit to them. The watchword of the
strikers is “eight hours work, eight hours
sleep, and eight bouts recreation." What
kind of recreation ? If these hours were to
be devoted to real improvement, to the cul~
ture of their minds, to social, moral and re-
ligious uses, no doubt it might be a great
benefit. But to a large majority is not idle»
ness a certain temptation to dissipation and
intemperancc? Dom not even an idle Sun-
day once a week often lead to a “ blue Mon-
day," with the loss of time and wages?
And would not longer leisure daily, expose
multitudes to new perils and temptations?
It is a law of God's universe that work is
noble, that it is a blessing to the workman,
that it occupies his time, dcvelopcs his pow-
ers, and leads to habits of thrift, economy
and manly independence.
But the question is a great and deep one,
and not to be exhausted in a paragraph. It
is cvidcnt that the rclations of Capital and

years to come, not only in [his country, but I
throughout the ClVlllLL‘il world. And in our !
