the middle again, where she dropped on the
end of her line to the ground and made
fast there. After that she worked accord
ing to the way her people have done since
the days when the wood was growing that
we now call coal. If it be an orbed snare
then all the outer croSsbars are gummed
with beads of tanglefoot for careless flies.
There is a comparatively open space around
the center. so that the scutfie that always
takes place when there is fresh meat for
supper may not wreck the web too vitality,
and right in the center itself is usually a
nice. neat little mat for her TO sit on, made
of dry, unsjcky silk, and woven like a
stained glass windows. Sometimes, instead
of plain radii, she cards her silk into a
fiocklike ribbon and ZigzagS 1t down one
compartment of the web. Some spiders
make an al-rOund snare; some make a

one kin makes a snare shaped like the

drawn up tight between her feet and waits.
a fool fly bumps into the line. She let's
everything go by the run and the sticky
slack falls over the fly. She spreads her
spinnerets and drops a flat ribbon of
threads over it. The more it kicks the
more IL tangles itself. When she can safe
~ do so the spider bites her prey until it
gives up. Then she sucks the. juice out of
it and sits chewing on the torn silk till she
gets all the gum off it. when she throws it
away and begins to repair the web.
Other spiders set their webs fiatwise over
hollows on the ground, a favorite location
being near a path. All the flying and jump
ing things get out of the way when a man
comes along, and, not looking where they
leap, they make business good. OF course,
the man often spoils the web, but la that
doesn't worry the spider any. There's plen-
ty more where that came from, and, any
how, she has TO spin TO pass away the
usEe. oy the way, most of their spinning is
done at night. In the daytime they take
little maps when there is nothing doing.
OF these fiat webs some are spun in bushes,
with a labyrinth of threads running up two
or three feet among the twigs over a sort
of umbrellalike disk. under which the spi-
ders wait. Other little spiders are often
permitted to make use of this labyrinth for
their own needs, or, perhaps, it is too much
trouble to stop the poaching. There is a
good deal of that kind of broad-minded
charity in the world.

Cleveland. in tearing down the enormous

disiguring vacant lots. the roofs of build

1T Is BETTER so.
No Cause for Grief that the 400" Do
Not Repeat Themselves.
EIkhart 0nd.) Review.

Some New York clergymen are lament
ing the fact that fashionable society in
New York, and in fact everywhere, is not
conducive to the raising of children. They
make the statement that in a mile of pal
aces on Fifth avenue, between Fifty-sev-
enth and Seventy second streets, there are
but fifteen children under twelve years of
age. One very fashionable church has over
enc thousand members and but sixty-one
children belonging 70 its Sunday school.
Twelve fashionable churches with a total
membership of 1861 have less than 1,500
children belonging TO their Sunday schools.
What of it? The fact exists, and under
the conditions which rule what is known
as society in New York, or in any of the
great centers of population, and very
largely in the smaller centers or population.
ii is well. These conditions are opposed
not only physically but morally TO the
rearing OF children. The habits of idleness.
OF dependence upon excitement. OF

those conditions which should surround
children who are to be reared 10 good citi-

tual and religious development of modern

phases of temperament. for the roper
rearing and directing of the physical and
moral well-being OF the child. There is far
less danger IN the ~overphysical elements
of the lowest intelligent classes of this
country than in the class which is known
as society. In the former the public school
system develops a liking for progress. and
stimulates the mental forces to over
come the physical, but in the latter the
supreme self-suf1ciency and self-satisfac-
ton seem to outweigh ambition and hope.
and TO encourage the habit OF resting in
present development. The lamentation over
the scarcity of children among those who
are known as the four hundred is worse
than ~groundleSs. The condition is rather
hopeful than hopeless. The great middle
classes are to furnish the citizenship of
the future: not only in numbers. but in
those phases OF intellectual and moral un-
folding which tend toward the elevation OF
mankind TO its highest sphere of action.
