Germany led in it's manufac- ture Our earliest importations were much sought after, and none could be bought with other money than gold coin. A common Head" pencil was al- most worth it's weight in gold. and man who got supply had to be we'll recommended. When a New York mer- chant advertised the arrival of con- signment of Head pencils" the rush to buy was pellmell.

Spiders Tn History.

Spiders have played q greater part in history than most people are aware of. Everybody knows how the pcrse- yerance of a spider encouraged Robert Bruce to regain his kingdom of Scot land. but not so many know that, ac- cortling to Jewish tradition, spider saved David's life. Saul was hunting for him, and his soldiers approached a cave where David was hidden.
