4 Spiders Instinct,

y correspondent sends us a remarkable
instance of adaptation of instinct in a
trapdoor spider. Says the writer: a
friend of mine noticed near his camp a
trapdoor spider ran in front of him and
pop into its hole, pulling the lid down as
it disappeared. The lid seemed so neat
and perfect circle that the man stopped
to examine it and found, to his astonish.
ment. that it was a siXpence. There was
nothing but silk thread covering the tor
of the coin. but underneath mud and silk
thread were coated on and shaped convex
las usual. The coin had probably been
swept out of the tent with rubbish
Commenting on this, a contributor to
Nature says: "As is we'll known, the
doors of trapdoor spiders burrows are
typically made of flattened pellets of
earth stuck together with silk or other
adhesive material. The unique behavior
of the spider in question showed no little
discrimination on her part touching the
suitability as to size shape and weight Of
the object selected to fulfill the purpose
for which the sixpence was used. sgd

There was a foolish kind of hanger on of

had often said, Il wish you would let me
help You in one of your practical Jokes,
Mr.. Sothern." Sothern humored his de.
sire. Mr.. Edgar Pemherton tells the
story in his Memoir of Sothern."
The comedy must for my purpose be
reduced to a paragraph. You know how
fond the professional ventriloquist is of
talking up the chimney to an imaginary
man on the roof Sothern had arranged
for his slavish confederate to mount the
roof by ladder and play the part of the
voice on the roof, which he did to per.

marvellous. Supper being over, the party
adjourned to another room. ut which

Sothern had, however. plotted against

ern, accepting the compliments of his
friends, managed in a short conversation
with the voice on the roof to let his un.
happy confederate understand that as
soon as possible he would 90 out and help
him down.
After a time, just when Sothern was
about TO slip out and release his friend
his host went to the chimney and, all the
more to emphasize Sothern's success. as
he thought, called out, Are you still

WHAT COLOR TELLS IN HORSES.
Arabs Believe the Chestnut Is the
Strongest and Swiftcst

w neither or not a horses color is an
Indication of his breeding and powers of
endurance is a much disputed question
The color theory doubtless originated
among the Arabs, for centuries famous
rs horsemen. Its opponents say that it is
the result of constant observation and
long study, but many competent horse
men deride it as a superstition.
BE this as it may, the chestnut is the
Arab idea of perfection. In this connec-
ton it is significant that the majority of
successful race horses have been chestnut
in color Chestnuts also seem to have
carried off the greatest number of honors
in the show ring. The Arabs, like the
dictionary, make but little distinction be-
tween the chestnut and the bay and con-
siders the latter color about as desirable
as the former. The dictionary defines
bay as a shade of chestnut.
Horses of a rich seal brown are good
to look upon, but among the Arabs rarely
fetch large price, as they are considered
lacking in hardihood, prone to sickness,
with little or no endurance. Roam horses
are by many regarded as very hardy, but
all horsemen do not concur in this opin-
ion, and, as the race horse trainers ex-
press it, the roam color indicates a cold
cross somewhere in the breeding
The black horse is in the American
mind. suggestive of the funeral, which
possibly accounts for some of the pref
udice against it. \ black horse is a
nightmare to his groom, for his coat
shows the slightest speck of dust or dirt,
and little gust of wind often spoils
hours of hard grooming. When a black
horse has been exposed to the sun and
weather for some days, his coat fades to
a rusty, washed out color
White horses always suggest the circus
Their coats are even more difficult to
keep clean than black horses and are
seldom in presentable condition. 1t is
most disagreeable to drive behind a gray
or white horse during shedding time.
Then ones clothing is sure to be covered
with clinging hairs that are very notice
able.
Piebald and skewbald horses attract
too much attention to the rider or driver
to be considered quite the thing and. like
the white horse, remind one Of the saw
dust ring. a mixed coat is a pretty
strong indication of low breeding
There is an ancient tale of band of
Arabs being pursued by their enemies
which sums up their theory about a
horses color. Among the fleeing band
was man with unusually keen eyesight,
and from time to time he would describe
to his leader the horses ridden by the
enemy.
What manner of horses do they ride?"
BLACK horses"
&c mr. of
At the noon halt the leader again ask.
ed, What manner of horse do they ride
now?"
"Bay horses"
Then we must ride harder"
A few hours later the leader asked,
"Are they horsed again?"
"They ride chestnuts."
"Then we ride for our lives"

Americans are always adopting the

Two brothers, grown men now, are fonC

ton is this:
There was an old coffee mill in the at
tic, which, as boys, they greatly desired
to possess. One Of them, Tom by name
sought his mother and begged her to give
it to them.

regretfully. Il should like to, but In

"But why. mother?" urged Tom. "Yor

mo; we don't use it."
"Then why won't you give it to us?"
"Well, DEAR" said the mother gently
