How "a spider Spins.

Few things are more wonderful than
the spinning apparatus ot the spider On
the under side Of the creatures body are
placed four or six Knobs, each not larger
than the point of a pm. These are out
lets to certia! reeeptacles within the alb
domen, where the silk is prepared.
When the spider wishes To spin a thread
1t presses the knobs or sPinnerets, with
one of its legs, and forthwith there issues
from each. not one, but a thousand fibres
Of such exquisite fncnessi that il Is only
when the product Of all the spinnerets
are united that they become visible 10
to the naked eye. The thread Of the
spider is thus tiny role Of four or six
thou.and strands. The twisting into one
cord is performed by the Iest, are fur
with three claws apiece. Us
ing these CLAWS as fingers, the little rope
maker twists her groups of thread into
one with surprising rapidity.
