' rctary of the Nebranka llural Life com
miualon, also of'the Krbrank Beekeepers'
association, but he la better known as
the man who does wonderful stunts with
bees. They swarm on his body by the
thousands, he fills his mouth with them
and generally handles them like the or
dinary person would handle beans, lis
know the bees by naino, almost, and
they take to him as they do to honey
buds. Mr. Odell will give exhibition of
his uncanny power over the bees all
IhrouKh the show.
As the making and marketing of honey
Is a quite profitable and growing Indus
try, plenty of this food of the gods will
be shown. Mr. Odell's Instuctlve demon
strations and talks will add decided In
tercut to the honey exhibit.

two other French factories It ts estimated
that the total output la considerably more
than 22.000 ton annually.
The reduction plant established in 1S&

most successful existence. Starting with

aluminum It turned out no less than 2.&21
tons In th flint nine months of l'Jlo, val

has several branches, all of which are

WHY BANKERS LIKE HANNA
Xeve Yorker Iteuownrd for Caution
in Expressing; Ills fcentl
nent. When Charles A. Hanna makes a state
ment you may bo certain that it will
withstand assault by hammer, file and
add. He is the must conservative man
In New York, and that Is a fairly brosd
statement of fact. Not long ago he was
named as auditor for the New York
Clearing House association, largely be
cause of that peculiarity of his. "We
know," said a banker, "that when Hanna
goes out to examine a bank ha will make
no statement whatever until that state
ment Is Justified. And whatever state
ment he' makes will stand without the
dotting of an I or the crossing of a t."
8oiiie years ago Hanna was named by
the United State government as the re
ceiver for the two big banks that Charles
W. Mors ruined here. Part of his duty
was to give out to the press each day a
statement of the day's findings. "He
was the most cautious man I ever knew,"
said one of the men on the Job. "He made
me think of old Uncle Eph Hasklna, who
held th belt for conservatism In the
Iowa corn belt On day a flock of sheep
passed along th road.
' 'Peal like them sheep been sheared.
Unci Eph.' said a friend.
' 'Well,' said that apostl of conserva
tism, 'It do look like that from thl '.de.'
'VJnc we called on Hanna with a ques
tion. 'You'll have to restate that.' said
Hanna. W restated it. 'I don't lik to
answer that In that form.' said Hanna,

I must not be quoted in regard to this
matter.' We told him that we' thor
oughly understood that. Each of us, in
dividually, and the whole of us as a body,
swore that we would not quote Mr.
Hanna. 'Now,' said he, 'restate your
question." So wo restated the question.
" 'I never heard anything of thla until

. "If working women would wear tailored
gowns and hats to their work Instead of

sooner, and the health of the community

by our dress. When they see the silly
wsy women dress going to business they
do not regard us seriously."
These and other particulars of advice
to working womeu on how to care for
