1t is no longer possible to doubt
that the natives of New Guinea use
spider webs for fishing nets. A medal
ist of the Royal Geographical society,
who has lately been travelling in New
Guinea, reports that the natives bend
the tip end of a long bamboo rod in
such way as to make a loop five or
six feet in diameter. They set up this
arrangement in the forest where the
spiders are thickest, and wait for the
insect to weave her web in the loop.
The web has a mesh about one inch
square at the outside, which gradually
decreases in size to not more than an
eighth of an inch square at the center
The native uses this as a scoop net as
he stands in the stream and dips the
fish out as they come near. 1t is
strong enough to hold fish weighing u
pound The spider which makes it
has body about the size of a small
hazel nut with legs that spread out
two inches.

an additional touch of youthfulness, so

even larger had it not been for the fact
that about 200 were admitted on rain
checks given last Sunday Rock Is
lands receipts were over 5000 greater
than those at Peoria, over twice as
great as those at Dubuque. and more
than three times those at Bloomington

J. H. Heaton, M. p, to whose I'M
firing effort England and her colonies
owe much of the efficiency Of the
British postal and telegraph service,
was born March II, 1876. He spent all
his early days in the colonies. For
a number of years he engaged in
newspaper work in Australia. 1t was
his experience in the Australian min
ing camps, where he saw how the
miners suffered through the heavy
charge for letters to England that led,
him to begin his postal reforms. In
1885 he represented the Tasmanian
Government at the Berlin Telegraph
conference. After years of agitation
he succeeded in carrying the Imper-
ial Penny Postage scheme in 1898.
Subsequently he introduced telegraph
money orders in England and parcels
post with various foreign countries.
For his work in bringing about re-
forms and improvements in the post
al service the freedom of the City of
London was conferred upon him in
1899.
