THE INGENIOUS SPIDER AND ITS MENDED
WEB.
the spider can have nothing to eat. To
prevent such an accident requires it's con-
stant attention, and like the captain of o
ship the brave little animal takes up its
position in the centre of its silken home
and remains there until the "blow' is
over Here the spider is in full control
The middle of the web is the central station
to which all news relating to its glistening
domain is sent. Every vibration, even at
the most distant point, is instantly tele-
graphed to headquarters, and if the news
be of vital Importance, the spider leaves for
the scene of danger at once. There it may
find that strand has broken loose which,
unless instantly repaired, will completely
ruin the web.
But sometimes the accident is of such a
nature that to repair the damage calls for
considerable ingenuity. For instance the
lower part of the web is often fastened to q
weed. When the wind begins to blow the
weed gently bows it's head, and the danger
to the web becomes very great; another
bow more loWly than before and the strands
snap, leaving the web tapping like sail
in a wind. The spider hurres down, but
everything is in confusion; the broken
strands are flying in all directions. To
fasten them to the weed again is out of the
question, and yet something must be done,
and done at once. Well, this is the way
one little spider solved the difficulty 1t
quickly lowered itself to the ground and
procured a small chip of wood around
which it fastened a thread. 1t then hung
this to the lower part of the web with a
strong silken cable.
The effect was wonderful. 1t kept the
web firm, and yet gave" enough to yield
to the wind Accidentally it was knocked
Off but the spider recovered it and hung it
as before. The web suffered no further in
jury although the wind blew very hard.
Some spiders use a very small stone in
stead of a chip of wood, and even fasten
the weight to n web which is five or Six
feet from the ground.
