Spiders that Kill Birds.

Everybody knows that spiders catch
Aies and other insects; but that some of
them kill little birds may not be so
generally known. A traveller in Brazil
tells us that he caught one of them in
the very act, while going through a
forest in the Amazons. The spider was
hairy fellow, with body two inches
long, and eight legs measuring seven
inches each, from end to end. The
writer describing the incident, says: Il
was attracted by movement of the
monster on tree trunk; it was close
beneath deep crevice in the tree,
across which was stretched dense
white web. The lower part of the web
was broken, and two small birds,
tinches, were entangled in the pieces.
One of them was quite dead, and the
other nearly so. drove away the mon
ster, and took the birds, but the second
one soon died. The fact of species of
Mygale, to which genus this spider be-
longs, sallying forth at night, mounting
trees, and sucking the eggs and young
of humming- birds, has been recorded
long ago by Madam Merriam and Palisot
de BeauvoIs; but, in the absence of any
confirm alton, it has come to be dis
credited. From the way the fact has
been related it would appear that it had
been merely derived from the report of
natives, and had not been witnessed by
the narrators. The Mygales are quite
common insects; some species make
their cells under stones, others form
artistical tunnels in the earth, and some
build their dens in the thatch of houses.
The natives call them Aranhas caran-
gueijeiras, or crab-spiders. The hairs
with which they are clothed come of
when touched, and cause a peculiar
and almost maddening irritation. The
first specimen that l killed and pre-
pared was handled incautiously, and l
suffered terribly for three days after
ward. think this is not owing to any
poisonous quality residing in the hairs,
but to their being short and hard and
thus getting into the fine creases of the
skin. Some Mygales are of immense
size. One day saw the children be-
longing to an Indian family with one
of these monsters secured by cord
round its waist, by which they were
leading it about the house as they would

Fashion Notes.

Silver jewelry is fashionable.
Soft crowns are very much used on
close cottage bonnets.
Handsome jetted bonnets are worn
with carriage, reception, church, and
full dress promenade toilets.
The half-high silk hats, worn for
driving, are now being used in the
street with both carriage and walking
costume.
The soft-crown turban bonnet with a
band of feathers or of fur remains the
most popular of all with very young
ladies.
Thick, heavy paper in English styles
is fashionable stationery for ladies, in
preference to the thin, fimsy French
paper once in vogue.
The latest boots for ladies have
broad, projecting soles, and button on
the outside of the foot instead of over
the instep, as formerly.
A novelty in artificial flowers is that
of making the petals of satin antique
kind of smooth plush, which makes
rose most natural and soft-looking.
What is called white jet, and is really
very glistening white beads, is used on
white bonnets, and is particularly eff
fective when sewed on white-Spanish
lace.
Clusters of dahlias of variegated
colors from pink to deep red and yell
low are shown in the shops, to be worn
on bonnets or in the corsage, or for
trimming evening dresses.
Handsome table-covers are now made
at home of crimson, olive or deep-blue
felt cloth, trimmed with wide band of
contrasting color, embroidered with
gold-colored floss.
Invitations to entertainments are as
plain and simple as it is possible to
make them. They are worded in the
simplest formula, and are engraved on
small note sheets, or else on the square
cards.
Colored cotton flannel is used for
tides and sofa-pillows. An inner square
of light shade, with darker shade,
is a pretty style. In the tides, corner
pieces of contrasting shade may be
introduced into the border.
Powder is used in way so frank and
straightforward nowadays that one Won
ders at any precaution for concealing
it, but one of the pretty sets of scent
bottles has powder box hidden under
swinging bottle.
A new fancy for trimming fichus of
muslin and lace is that of having vine
of leaves and buds extend up the left
side to the back of the neck, while a
large bunch of larger half-blown buds
is placed lower on the front.
Very young ladies are wearing during
the midwinter season beaver round
hats, with the crown smooth like the
beaver of gentlemen's silk hats, while
the broad flaring brim is of long-napped
furry beaver, which is found to be very
becoming.
Long scarfs of black Spanish lace
are now most coquettishly arranged
over the bonnet, with the front edge
falling over the brim, the other gathered
into the crown behind, and the end
knotted under the chin. This is worn
in white lace on dress bonnets, and in
black for the street.

RELIGIOUS AND EDUCATIONAL.

The largest University in the WORLD
is that of Berlin, with 3,608 students.
The Methodist Missionary Society
has received $10,013, 265 in the las
twenty years.
The Greek Governmental has made
the New Testament in the ancient
Greek a text book in the highest classes
of the common schools.
The Bible House at Constantinople
keeps on sale 1882 different books In
eighteen Oriental languages, and an un.
precedented inquiry prevails for all.
The italian Government seques.
trated and sold, between 1861 and Sep
TENDER, 1879, 1854 lots of church
property, for which it received SAG, 49,.
AL lire.
One of the churches in Norwich,
Conn, fills the position of janitor or
sexton by auction, at which the person
naming the smallest sum secures the
situation. Forty dollars was the annu-
al sum recently bid.
The American Board has expended
more than 81, 200, 600 on missions among
the Indians, and gathered fifty churches
with 1000 members. The mission
among the Dakotas returns eight
churches and 600 members.
Wisconsin has now four State Nor
NAL Schools, and it is proposed to es-
tablish another in Milwaukee. The
four already in operation have an av-
erage annual attendance of 1,600 stu
dents, the demand for admission being
hn Of
satisfy.
About one-fifteenth of the Catholic
population of this country is taught in
Catholic schools, or upward of 405, 900.
Of this number of scholars SO, 495 are
in eighty-three schools in New York,
and 23,085 in 1853 schools in Newark.
There are 140 Catholic schools in Gin
cinnati, with 25,406 scholars, but only
sixteen schools in Boston.
Ohio has now school population
of 1,043, 800. The number of pupils
enrolled in the public schools is 1884,
657; the average daily attendance is
only 459, $3.50. There are 1854 school
houses, and 23,487 teachers. The
school receipts for the past year
amounted to $11, 243, 210.38; the expen-
ditures to $7,71l,325.24. The average
monthly wages of male teachers in
country districts were $50; of female
teachers, 1924. In cities male teachers
received 500; female teachers, $42.
The average levy for school purposes in
the country districts was 80 mills; in
towns, $50.
Persecution in Austria. A recent
letter from Austria, referring to the
visit of the deputation of the Evangeli-
cal Alliance to the Emperor, says:
1.-TWO months have nearly now
elapsed, and matters remain much as
before. Bureaucratic hindrances and
theological jealousies have probably
hindered that speedy remedy which the
Emperor's words and manners seemed
to indicate. The facts of an intolera-
BILE persecution being undeniable, we
feel the time has now come when en-
lightened public opinion may call upon
the Government of Austria, in the name
of right and liberty, to give effect in its
own dominions to that great principle
of religious freedom which with its own
hand it has so lately inscribed upon the
international law of Europe"

A Novel Way to Fish.

THE winter fishing on Chautauqua
Lake is quite a business. Being an in
land lake, it freezes over quicker than
Lake Erie and when the latter body is
open Chautauqua Lake has ice enough
to hold up an army of fishermen. There
are now about twenty scoops" as they
are called, out on the ice. A scoop"
is box about three feet square with a
hole in the bottom. A hole is cut in
the ice and the box placed over it SO
that the two holes match. A man
crawls into this box and it being per-
fectly dark in there he can see the bot
tom as plain as day if the water is clear.
If it is not clear, a newspaper is sunk
to the bottom under the coop and fish
passing over it are easily seen. Through
this hole in the ice wooden fish, prop

The Party He Represented.

One of the sold style" of CONNER
cial travellers was Jack Hazard, of
New York. Jack was passionately fond
of the pasteboards," and would occa-
sionally even indulge in little game
with the boys in the basement of the
store, when not upon the "road." One
morning when thus engaged the sold
man" was heard approaching, ard Jack
stuffed his last trick in his pocket,
chucked the rest of his pack into an
empty case, and the company broke
up. The cause of the intrusion was
soon explained by Jack receiving an
order to start for Philadelphia at once
with samples of new line of goods.
Jack flung the samples into valise,
put on clean paper collar, bought ten
cigars for a quarter, and started at
once. Arrived in Philadelphia, his first
call was on an old Quaker house on
Broad street. Pulling himself together,
Jack marched in, and, laying card be-
fore the senior partner, who was busily
engaged at his desk, said in his most
sanctimonious manner, "That is the
party l have the honor to represent"
The old follower of Penn looked care
fully at the card, and then, fixing his
steelly blue eyes on Jack, handed it
back, saying: elf that is the party
thee represents thee will find Philadel-
phia well stocked with his goods. "
Jack cast one mortified look at the card.
1t was the "little JOKER" on which a
fellow-clerk had strongly sketched the
head and horns of his Satanic Majesty,
and the bold salesman, for once dis
comfted, beat hasty retreat to his ho-
