MOST TERRIBLE or DEATHS.
Spiders Bite Probably the Worst
Known to Scientists.

What is the most terrible death in
the world? The following are a few
of the most terrible known TO mortal
man, but as to which of those given
is the worst 1t would probably be hard
to say
One Of the most agonizing deaths
known is caused by small black
spider half the size of pea. 1t lives
in Peru and South Australia, but a
few specimens have reached Europe
and America in ship loads of lumber,
Not long ago a dock laborer while I'M
loading vessel in the Victoria docks
felt one upon his hand. This death
dealer dug its fangs deep into the
mans flesh, and as soon as the poison
began to work he tainted with pain.
He was dead in three days. This

vessels and spreads through all the
tissues, causing the most fearful ag-

lives at least two days. The spider
is generally known as the SPECIFY"
When man who knows what the
bite means becomes the victim he
generally blows out his brains.
Another fearful death' is caused by
eating a grain called i"bhat." This
sometimes gets mixed with rice, which
1t resembles. The plant grows In the
far east, and few grains of 1t will
drive person into a state of violent
mania The victim becomes drowsy
at first and afterwards hilarious then
he goes raving mad, tears himself to
pieces with his fingers and bites
mouthfuls out of his flesh. This grain
Is found only in the remotest parts
Of the east, but both white men and
natives are killed by 1t occasionally,
for the plant grows in with the rice
crops, and there is no way of telling
them apart, except when the grain Is
dried 1t comes out in sort of brick
red color.
There is a South American plant, or
vine, called the "knotter,' which fas'
tens about any living thing that
comes within reach, twining its long
tentacles about a man as a devilfish
might. These tehtacles scar and
burn into the flesh like white-hot
wires, and the victim is dragged into
the heart of the foliage, and his life
slowly drained as the spider sucks
the blood of the fly. Those who have
strong instincts of cruelty, sometimes
force dog or other animal into the
grip of the "knotter" to watch the
effects, which are too horrible to de-
scribe in detail.

Little Ono Wanted to Pick the "Un-

When the first little granddaughter
was big enough to want to pick the

every guileful means to save their pet

reached when 1t was agreed that Har-
riet should let hesgarden plants alone
and pick only "ehildren's flowers" a
descriptive name bestowed at once
alike on dandelions, buttereups,
daisies and cloyers. After this there
was peace in the family. One day

Child Misunderstood.

When Lord Elphiston was in Amer.
lea a couple Of years ago he was en-
tertained at dinner by family the
head of which was to accompany his
lordship on his hunting trip through
the wilds of the northwest. A child
of about five years, named Ethel, dur
ing the dinner was big-eyed and big
cared with wonderment--in fact, com
pletely overawed by the presence OF
the distinguished foreigner. Ethel
heard her mother and father now and
then say, MY lord this, and my lord
that" or "Will you have some of this,
my lord, or some of that?" the dinner
being purely informal one. Finally
when the mother was interested. in the
conversation of another guest, Ethel
noticed that MILFORD was gazing inter
estedly at dish of relish quite out OF
his reach. The chih thought she saw a
chance to. please Lord Elphiston, and
in firm, clear voice, exclaimed:
