Too Late.

Each on his own strict line we move,
And some find death ere they find love-
So far apart their lives are thrown
From the twin soul that halves their own.
And sometimes, by still harder fate,
The lovers meet, but meet too late.
Thy heart is mine. True, truel ali, truel
Then, love, thy hand. All, no! Adieul

WHY A NETTLE srIYGs.

The leaf and stem of nettle are
literally clothed with erect hollow
hairs. If one of these hairs is viewed
under q microscope it will be seen
that it's free end, after tapering to q
very fine degree of slimness, finishes
at little knob; while in the other
direction, after gradually becoming
more robust, it suddenly expands
into large bulb corresponding with
the poison-gland of the adder. The
point of the hair is very brittle, and
contact with the hand causes the
end to- snap of, leaving a hollow
needle point which readily pierces
the kin, and, pressing upon the
bulbsat the other end, the poison is
forced through the central channel
and inflames the blood. The tender
handed who stroke the nettle are
stung for their pains, because their
gentleness has only served to break
the brittle points and render them
fit for piercing; but the rough
handed break the hairs at their
thickest parts, where they are too
stout to prick.-[Detroit Free Press.

TRAVELLING SPIDERS.

There is a certain species Of spider
which is moved by instinct at certain
seasons of the year to travel, and to
travel distances that no one would
suspect him DESTROYS of covering.
What, then, is their method? The
spider selects the right kind of q
day. one on which there is almost q
calm in the air, or rather one when
there is just the slightest breeze.
He crawls up a tree or flagstaff or
bulrush, or anything that will
give him q free position. He then
begins to emit the free end of web
from his filament bag, and this is so
light and fresh that it floats away in
the air and is carried along by the
light breeze. He may emit 100 or
300 yards, and every now and then
he tries whether there is enough out
and floating to buoy him if he let's
60 his grip on the tree or other ele-
walton. By nice system of calcu-
lation he ascertains just what will
buoy him, and then letting 60 his
hold, the filament is borne of by
the wind and he himself at the end
OF it, and in this way he can travel
miles and miles Detroit Free
