THE WONDERS OF THE WORLD

This world Of ours is filled with won.
ders. Tho microscope reveals not less
than tho telescope, each at either end Of
creation. In tho insect creation, parlicu-
larly, there is SO much TO know that has
never been dre.mpt-whccls within
wheels, without computation or,number.
Let 10 take rapid glance at the proofs Of
this statement. The polypus, it is SAID,
like tho tabled hydra, receives new life
from tho knife which is lifted to destroy
it. The fly spider lays an egg aslargo as
itself. There arc 4,o41 muscles in a
caterpillar. Hooko discovered $4,000

tains four little masses pierced with a
uultituds of impcrceptiblo holes, each
hole permitting the passage Of thread !;
all the threads, to tho amount Of 1000
to each mass, join together when they
como out and make the single thread with
Which the spider spins its webb; SO that
what We call spiders thread consists Of
more than 1000 united. Lcnwhenock,
by means of microscopes, observed spiders
no bigger than grain of sand, aud which
spun threads SO fine that it took 1000 Of
them to equal in magnitude a single hair.
