Spider Webs.
Snow Flake

UNIV 4 teAANs
The delicate fabric of the spiders web, |
so fine as to scarcely be visible without
the aid of the microscope, is miracle of
skill. With each thread composed, not
of single line as is supposed, but as we
learn Of many thousand strands, the
beautiful, glossy net work, dotted with |
dew and sparkling in the sunshine, affords |
traces of exquisite skill and patient toll |
The gauze-like texture of the web of the
house spider as well as the beautiful net
work commonly found among the foliage,
is formed in the same way, and both are
beautiful specimens of what insects can
do.
1t is astonishing to see the instructive
ingenuity they employ for ensnaring flies,
the common object of their pursuit
When fly is caught in the web, the
spider, which is concealed in ambush, in
minute rushes from its hiding place,
darts upon poorunsuspecting creature,
| firmly fixes in it its claws, and life soon
becomes extinct
The subtle ingenuity of these insects
excites popular comment, and much has
been written in fattering terms of the in
ventive power nature has bestowed on
them.
Looking abroad into the world how
often are we reminded of the great ruling
condition of our being, that of activity
and diligence the book of Nature ever
teaches us the lesson.
Day and night, summer and winter,
cold and heat, succeed each other IN
their untiring course. The tides, the
ocean and the rivers ebb and flow; the
endless variety of the vegetable kingdom
is ever changing into new and fresh forms
of beauty flowers, fruits and foliage, ano
all animate things, are seen disportng u
the air, earth and water, joyously obedl
, ent TO the mandate and basking in thu
sunshine of their benefcent Creator.
|, Man thinks he stands unrivalled as al
4 architect and that his productions IA
! transcend the works of the inferior orde
/ of animals. He would be of diferer
9 opinion did he attend to the history {
g insects; for he would find that many
them have been architects from time in
memorial; that they have their house
3 divided into various apartments, an
q rival him in ability to adapt means to II
4 accomplishment of the purposes who
G their nature requires. 40 ea.l ,A8 =

made to raise the remainder of
the amount as speedily as possible,
