It seems almost crime for man to
"hide his light under a bushel." If he
has something new, that will benefit the
human race, he should make it known.
Old-fogy physicians tread the beaten
path OF their grandfathers, denounCe
advertised remedies, and never learn
anything new. Medical science knows
no parallel to DIR. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription, compounded by physi-
clan OF skill and long experience, espec-
tally for the malNdies which atflict

Spiders kill their prey by the agency
of poisonous fluid which is secreted
in the gland, and which flows at will TO
the extremity of one of the fauces or
jaws. Some writers have denied the
existence of this poisonous substance:
but the effects which a SPIDERS bite
have been known to have upon a
human being prove undoubtedly that it
is present. Persons who have been
bitten by a very large South American
spider, known as Mygale ftsca, have
felt the effects in the recurrence of
severe pains in the portion of the body
attacked for as long as twelve or even
twenty years after the infiction of the
wound. The stories told of the dis
astrous effects of the bites of the Ia
rantula are, however, quite fabuluus.
Everybody has heard of the belief, held
by the inhabitants of the district around
Tarantum, that if one CHANGED to be
bitten by tarantula, he became sub
ject to dire disease which could only
be cured by musical strains. The dis
ease no doubt existed, and was prob
ably form of bysteria, in the cure of
which music may have proved bene-
fetal, but to saddle an innocent spider
with the odum of producing it was dis.
tinctly unfair. The destructive powers
of spiders do not stop short at killing
insects, for some tropical species habit
ually catch and eat small birds. The
accounts first given of these formidable
creatures were for a long time looked
upon as mere travellers tales, but more
recent observations have fully con-
firmed the statements made by those
who originally described them. The
birds are not caught in snares, for these
spiders spin no webs, They conceal
themselves in crevces or under leaves
and from some such retreat pounce
upon the birds they have succeeded in
approaching. A great deal of their
hunting is done during the dark hours
of night, when they are able to steal
upon their prey without being per-
ceived. They often rifle the nests of
the humming- birds, dragging out the
young and devouring them, while the
distracted parent birds futter helplessly

propriate here, and the strictly utii-
tartan must be sacrificed to the pictur-
esque. In street dress this is all differ
ent; no refined woman wishes to at
tract the attention of strangers by con-
spicuous dress on the street. A street
gown should be so simple, yet so per-
feet in make, that the wearer merely
conveys the impression of being we'll
dressed, though every detail is so
blended in harmonious whole that
nothing in her dress excites special
note. An ideal street dress, in the me-
cessities of the case, must clear the
sidewalk, and it is not unlikely that, in
course of time, some regulation style,
in which there is enough variety al
lowed for individualism of taste, will
be adopted for the promenade. The
walking-gown is made of lightweight
wooden, in refined mixture of beige
and heliotrope. The material is woven
in stripes, running diagonally and meet
ing in the middle. The collar and cuffs
are of dark helotrope velvet. The Sc
verely plain skirt, which falls over a
deep band of velvet at the foot of the
gown, is relieved by slight move
ment " of plaits at the top, draping it
over the edge of the basque. This
gown would be suitable for visiting
dress and for afternoon wear on the
promenade. - Helena Rooce, in Good
Housekeeping.

Different Kinds OF Courage.

In certain club window lately two
army officers were seated holding an
animated discussion, or rather the older
one was laying down the law in regard
to individual courage in war. He main
tanned that true courage was oftener
found in pure American than in any
other nationality, defining it as Web.
ster does as that quality Of mind which
enables one to encounter danger and
difficulties with firmness or without fear
or depression. That Englishmen were
courageous he pronounced automatic,
but attributed it in great part to bull
dog tenacity of purpose. The average
Frenchman's courage was more like
bravery, reckless and daring, and to
some extent relied on the love of pomp
and power. So far as bravery goes, the
Irishman is like the Frenchman-the
same dash, the same self-abnegation-
but it can not be said to rely upon any
thing bui the individual characteristics
of each man. With the Germans two
powerful ingredients in the superb dis
plays they have made are indomitable
pluck and discipline; it acts to them
like backbone. Also their phlegmatic
Indifference to personal danger. The
Scotchman's stolidity of courage is like
unto it. He wound up by saying that
the crazy bravery Of Mahomedans was

His Rudeness Explained,

There was young man on a Mil
waukee avenue car yesterday who was
mad-not simply angry, but mad,
through and through. The car was
crowded, when a corpulent German
accompanied by an equally corpuent
woman, elbowed his way inside. The
woman was not pretty or attractive,
and most of the male passengers did
not even resort to any of the familiar
tricks of the old-time passenger when
he conveniently war IS to overlook the
fact that lady is holding on to strap
while he enjoys comfortable seat. A
we'll dressed young man arose, and,
touching the woman's arm to attract
her attention, politely said: Here is a
seat for you, madam" The woman
started toward the vacant seat, when
her obese male companion, with sigh
of satisfaction, settled down into it be-
fore her. The young man was sur
prised, but his astonisnment soon cave
way to anger. AT first he was inclined
to believe that the putting old Teuton
had made mistake, but he soon be-
came convinced that the action was in
territorial. Tapping the old man on the
shoulder he said quietly: :" beg your
pardon, sir, but gave my seat to this
lady and not to you" ooh, yaw, dot
is all right, mine friendt," blurted out
the old chap, she vos mine Wife,
The young man grasped strap for sup.
port and for moment was too full fol
utterance. A riot was imminent, but
at the next crossing several passengers
alighted and bloodshed was averted.-
