A Noted Monarch's Complete Suit of Finest

A Noted Monarch's Complete Suit Of Finest
spider-Thread.
The female is much fercer and larger
than the male. There is peril to the
latter in paying his addresses. 'Love
me or l die is not phrase of poetry
or sentiment with the male spider, but
often is literal statement of the trag-
ical fact, and his usual experience is
that he loses some of his legs in the
rebuffs which he receives. In one
tribe of spiders the female is 1.300
Ptimes larger than the male. Accord
| ingly, there is never any occasion
among them to hold a woman's rights
convention. The SPIDERS thread is
composed of innumerable small threads
| or fibers. One of these small threads
has been estimated to be one two
millionth part of the thickness of a
hair The spider spins three kinds of
thread. One kind is of great strength,
ard of this the radiating or smoke
| lines of the web are made. The cross
lines, or what a sailor might call the
ratlins, are finer and are tenacious;
that is, they have upon them little
|
gum. These specks are put on with
even inter-spaces. They are set quite
thickly along the line, and are what,
in the first instance, catch and hold
the legs or wings of the fly. Once
caught in this fashion the prey is held
secure by threads flung over it some
what in the manner of lasso. The
third kind of silk is that which the
spider throws out in mass or flood,
by which it suddenly envelopes any
prey of which it is somewhat afraid,
as, for example. wasp. A scientific
experimenter once drew out from the
body of single spider $3.50 yards of
thread or spider silk-a length little
short Of three miles. Silk may be
woven of SPIDERS thread, and it is
more glossy and brilliant than that of
the silkworm, being of a golden color.

AT SANTA ANITA.
A Sunday Spent at the Pleasure Resort OF
the City of Mexico.

A Sunday Spent at the Pleasure Resort of
the City of Mexico.
Santa Anita, the first village on the
Viga beyond the City of Mexico, is the
universal rallying point on Sundays,
both for natives and sght-seekers from
the capitol. There is always fiesta at
Santa Anita, and the Indians are for
ever fandangoing, pulque-drinking and
ballad-singing. O On arriving at this
village, the first business of every body
is to secure a wreath of peoples and
corn-howers, whiSsh the women wear
upon their tangtc~, nalr and the men
upon their sombreros though, perhaps,
the "human form divine" thus beauti-
fully crowned may be but partially COW
cred with scant and dirty rags. Lovely
wreaths sell for a mddio (six cents)
apiece; and the woman, young or old,
who is not wreathed before the day is
over is either deep in disgrace or hope
lessly out of fashion. This innate love
of flowers is direct heritarge from
the swarthy founders of the float
ing gardens. History tells us
that the most valuable gift
which Montezuma presented to the
Spanish ambassadors who came to his
court, was accompanied by a rare
bouquet-and strange anomaly it
must have seemed, the love of the beau
tiful combined with their blood-curdling
religion! Baron Won Humboldt re-
marked upon the same peculiarly CEN
turtles afterward, and so have other
writer's on Mexico. To-day those who
sit in the market-places must embower
themselves in green branches garlanded
with flowers, while some prosaic pulque
barrels are wreathed with roses. and
mugs and pitchers are similarly adorned.
The poorest village church has its floor
strewn with blossoms, and fresh bou-
quets are always arranged upon the
affairs before services begin. The babe
at its christening, the child at its contir-
nation, the bride at her wedding and
the corpse in its coffin are alike
adorned.
At the Indian village next above
Santa Anita is rare old church, which
was built by Cortez more than three
hundred years ago, but is still in daily
use. 1t is we'll worth visit, and if the
doors chance to be closed, few cents
will induce the custodian (who lives
conveniently near) to produce the key
and reveal all its treasures of antique
ugliness. In the rear is weed-grown
graveyard with rows of grnning skulls
ranged along the arms of its central
cross, which is surrounded by the usual
heap of human bones. In front of the
church, facing the plaza fountain where
! the women collect with the + water
Jars and linger to gossip, as even Indian
women will-are several blne-painted

An Elderly Traveller Compares American

of money fore we could travel any

compare their brutal way to the deli
cate politeness of our sleeping-car por-

ers borrowed that idea from the Pull
