renewal Of coarse and often lire

as Dame Nature. Sometimes she
opens her hands and pours out her
blessings until the barns burst and the
granaries cannot contain, but at others
she fails to send the rains ana the dews
and the genial heat at the times when
most demanded by the exigencies Of
plant life, and then the labor of the
farmer Is all In vain. Dependent as he
is on the vicissitudes Of the season, no
wonder he sometimes becomes a fatal
list and finds signs and wonders where
others see natural phenomena easily
susceptible of explanation.

SHINING a Web,

About four miles from Philadelphia,
there lives an old Frenchman who
earns an honest livelihood by raising
and selling spiders. His trade is chief
ly with the Wholesale wine merchants,
who is able to stock cellar with new,
shining, freshly labeled bottles, and In
three months see them yelled with
filmy cobwebs, so that the effect of
twenty years Of storage Is secured at
a small cost. The effect upon a Gus
toner can be imagined, and is hardly
to be measured in dollars and cents.
1t is a trifiing matter to cover the bins
with dust, but to cover them with cob
webs spun from cork to cork, and that
drape the neck like delicate lace, the
seal Of years Of slow mellowing, that
is a different thing. Not all kinds of
spiders can make webs suitable for the
purpose Of the merchant, and those Sc
lected by the seller are the species that
weave large ones of lines and circles.
They are the only webs that look ar
tistic in the wine cellar or on the bot
ties. The spiders that weave these are
principally the Eperia vulgaris and
Nephila plumipes. The price asked
for them is ten dollars a hundred, and
at an expenditure Of forty or fifty dol
lars the wine merchant may sell his
stock of wine for thousand or more
dollars above what he could have OBJ
tanned for 1t before the spiders dressed
his bottles in the robes Of long ago.

A HANDSOME ARC LAMP.
Which IL Ornamental Enough to b
Hung in a ParIor.

Which IL Ornamental Enough to Be
Hung in a Parlor.
The term "arc lamp" has always
seemed to carry with it an idea Of un-
gainliness-a device having no form
or shape and strung out over 40 to so
inches of space, divided up into sec
tons of chimneys, rods, globes and
sheet-iron drums-for reasons known
only to the manufacturer. The trade
has always looked upon an arc lamp
as a necessary evil. The demand for
something better is universal.
The "A-B" arc lamp is only 80 inches
in length over all and burns from II
to IS hours. 1t is a single carbon lamp
with only one side rod, which causes
only one shadow to be thrown. This
shadow may be taken care of against
the pole or building, leaving the Light
intended for the street entirely unob-
structed. =,
The "A-B" lamp furnished In any
finish desired-black japan, yellow
brass, XVIIth century brass, oxidlzed
brass, oxidized copper, oxidized silver
and aluminium. This provides an arc
lamp good enough to hang In parlor
lit being possible to match any stylo
gas fixture or decoration. The alumni
mum lamp complete weighs only nine
teen pounds. The casing being of cast

mule, and did the work In a mastery
manner that created jealousy among
the mules Of the county.
Satan is seven feet tall and as strong
as an OK, and has the reputation Of be-
ing the Samson Of Georgia. One Of his
feats that attracted especial attention
was where he picked up four men, each
weighing about $50 pounds. Putting
one on each shoulder and taking one on
each arm, he walked off down the street
as easily as an ordinary man would
carry 50-pound sack Of -four. Stoop-
ing down and catching medium-sized
man by the back Of the coat collar with
his teeth, he lifted him from the ground
and walked across the street with him
with as much ease as the average man
would carry a meerschaum pipe In his
mouth. He never wears n hat except
when he comes to town, as he fears 1t
will shorten his hair, and his shoes are
always out at the toes, his feet being
too long for any ready-made pair. Sans
employer has standing wager of 500
that he (Sam) can pull more than any
team Of horses in the surrounding coun-
try. His real name Is Sam Williams.
He was given the name of Sam Satan
when he was a boy on account of his
many mischievous pranks, and he Is
now known by that name and no other.

the glOries of the season when all ma
ture wakes to new life and vigor, but
of all the poets who have celebrated
the season Of the opening leaves and
budding flowers, 1t Is likely that not
more than 1>per cent. lived in the coun-
try or had to take any active part in
the rural duties inseparable from the
youth of the year.
The city resident may poetize and
moralize over the coming of the beauti-
ful spring, but the man who makes his
living In the country has no time for
either poetry or philosophy, for to him
the advent Of spring means nothing but
q great deal of hard work. No matter
how ford the poets may become about
the new birth of the flowers and trees,
TO the farmer this event Is Of signifi-
canoe merely as indicating that the
blowing and sowing must begin. He has
NO time for sentiment, for the spring is
altogether too short for the amount Of
work he is obliged to squeeze into 1t,
and summer treads so closely on It's
heels that before he is ready the heated
term begins. 1t is not likely that more
than once in ten years the farmer sees
summer come on when he is fully pre-
pared for 1t. Not that he Is dilatory,
or that the season is short, but that
there is so much to be done. Someone
defines farmer as "a man who works
as hard as he can all the year round for
his board and clothes, and not very
good board nor very fine clothes" The
definition seems eXtravagant, but that
fact Is due to the circumstance that 1t
ts full Of truth, for the farmers work,
like woman's, is never done, as by the
time it reaches certain stage, it begins
again and goes the same dreary round.
The farmer regards springtime there
fore, not from a poetical but from a
purely practical, point Of view, for it
Is the season when he begins all over
again. 1t is common saying that you
never know how much you have until
you begin to move, and In the same
sense the farmer never realizes how
much trash can accumulate about a
place until he starts to clean up in the

Shoe Cabinets.

The furniture-makers are showing a
beautiful article Of mahogany and
glass which reminds one Of the cabinets
for bric-a-brac, but 1t Is more substan-
tial and its legs are shorter. 1t is
made to hold a woman's shoes and to
stand across the corner of her Dress
ing-room. One Easter bride has such
a cabinet well filed, and 1t is an i'm
portant feature of the trousseau. Her
cabinet has three plate-glass shelves
and a drawer which holds the polish
and small articles for repairs. On the
top shelf is a row Of slippers for even
ing wear. The next shelf holds the pat
ent leather ties, the cloth top boots
with big buttons and the stout little
calf ones for street wear. On the bot
tom shelf is rather motley group
cycle shoes, riding boots, tennis shoes,
tan shoes, hunting boots and soft In
dian moccasins Of tiger skin, beaver
trimmed.

Tree-falling and brush burning are
the preliminaries to the more serious
operation Of grubbing. In point Of gen.
eral unpleasantness grubbing ranks
about midway between cleaning the
fence corners and brush burning, being
a little more troublesome than the for
mer and not quite so hot as the latter.
1t Is, however, troublesome enough to
meet all ordinary demands on the pa

amazement, the root keeps coming un-

Of 1t up through the sod, then 1t breaks,
and you wonder whteher anybody ever

is a singular fact about a patch Of
