Do sp1der, Like NrusfcY

1t has often been said that spiders
are fond OF music, but French inves-
this is not true. He says that their
musical sense must be attributed mere
ly to greed or to hunger. When fly
is caught in a spiders web it buzzes,
and the spider Immediately makes for
the place from which the buzzing
comes. NJ Lecaillou, by experimenting
with a violin, some flies, a piano, yio-
lorcello and cornet, found that only
those musical sounds which resemble
the buzzing of the flies attracted the
spiders. The cornet. for instance, in
variably frightened ii, and SO did the
piano.

NEW YEARS AGAIN.
Time for Resolving to Do the Best
You Can.

You Can.
New Years is upon us again. Let us
take up the line of march and make the
best progress we can through another
year. Humanity does not shape an edify-
ing course. Day after day, year after
year, it blunders along, as any days his
tory spelt out in the newspaper will at
test. To blunder along seems TO be about
the best the best of us can do, either az
individuals or as a nation. 1t is not
ideal, but it will answer, if so be we can
keep pointed in the right direction and
proceed in a sagacious spirit, sharing the
road with the rest of the folks and not
less compassionate of their deviation than
of our own. The greatest goals that men
have reached they have reached by being
stronger than their mistakes. SO it was
with Lincoln: so with Washington. The
great difference between wayfarers, be-
sides the disparity in locomotive power, is
that some manage to hold to the right dl-
rection and to maintain in spite of blum
ders the essential spirit. That sort inva-
riably get somewhere where 1t is worth
while to arrive For the others, speed is
nothing if the direction is not right. And
to carry along a great load of baggage
is far less advantageous than it might be
if our Job was a permanent job, and If
every man of us was not under contrct to
drop every shred he has and run when
ever his hour strikes.-Harper's Weekly.

holds the contents of Santa Claus pack.
They look at every object on the table
and then march back. The company now
divides in half, one-half leaving the room,
the table and its contents having been
covered. Those remaining choose some
object which they remember seeing; the
piano begins to play again and the others
return. The leader gives to the returning
party a word which rhymes with the OBJ
ject chosen. Thus, if it was ball, he
might mention the word hall" The re-
turning party now proceed to guess what
object has been chosen, and they express
their guess by acting in pantomime. They
do not all suggest the object in the same
way but each according to his individual
fancy, but they must all agree upon the
object they will guess. If wrong they go
out for another trial and so on until
guessed, when the other half of the com
pany goes out and they remain and select
the object for the others to guess.
Hiding the Mistletoe.-All form in line,
single file, and march about the room or
several rooms until the music stops. They
then proceed to hunt the mistletoe, which
the leader carried in his hand and con-
cealed somewhere during the march. The
finder must effect return to the starting
point without being touched by the leader.
Santa Claus Sleigh.-Six girls are har-
messed to a little sleigh or sled, and the
white ribbon reins are held by seventh.
The sled is filed with small parcels in
colored papers containing Christmas
or any tri1es as favors. The party
goes round the room several times. dis
pensing the favors to the young men, who
proceed to select partners and dance until
a signal from the leader calls all to march
around the room and back to their places.
Snowball.-A large white ball of tissue
paper is suspended well out of the way of
bric-a-brac. The young girls take turns
at shooting at this ball with small rub
Der ball. When hit with sufficient force
it breaks and out falls a shower Of small
er white balls, perhaps popcorn balls.
which are gathered and presented as fav-
Drs for the next march or dance. As
there should be only about half as many
balls as there are couples dancing, this

Christmas Advice for Millionaire.

Christmas Advice for millionaire.
Although handicapped by your cirum-
stances. it is not impossible for you to
extract some comfort from Christmas
One of the best rules is not to allow your
self to think about your condition. You
would gladly swap places and stomachs
with some poor devil who has to earn his
OWE living. but do not dwell upon this.
Instead. ascertain the address of some
misguided philanthropist who is IN the
habit of giving Christmas dinner to a
lot of ragamuffrns. Get him to take you
to the place and view the moving speeta-
Gle. He will be glad to have you see 1t,
and it will be source of considerable
to you Then, after you have
been driven home, you can estimate the
cost per plate and the number fed, and
easily ascertain how much you have saved
by not doing the same thing. This will
east a gentle glow over the remainder of
your holiday and help you to enjoy what
otherwise might be a cherries Christmas.

Fire Of unknown origin totally destroyed
the works of the Harvard Laundry Com
pany, at 731 Ninth street northwest
shortly after o'clock yesterday morn
ing, resulting in loss of about 81 900.
The flames were first discovered by
Richard Anderson, a switchman employed
az Ninth and G streets. BY the time the
engines had arrived at the scene the
flames had made such Roadway that a
second alarm was sent in.
The quantities of infiammable material
which was stored in the building gave
great Roadway TO the flames, which
spread rapidly, and for tine threatened
the adjoining property. The flames were
finally gotten under control, but not until
the whole structure was completely
wrecked
T. II. Marshall. the manager OF the
laundry company, stated that the loss
to the stock and machinery of the build
ing would amount TO about $1,000. Of
which $3.50 was covered by insurance.

HOME LIFE DISCUSSED.
Meeting Held Yesterday I'm It's
Interest.

Yesterday afternoon a highly interest
ing meeting was held in Hamline NJ. E,
Church, under the auspices OF the Amer
lean Society OF Religious Education, the
object being to increase the interest in
the home as an institution in the forma-
ton OF character.
Judge George W. Atkinson, Of the Court
or Claims, presided with much grace and
dignity. The devotional exercises We're
conducted by Rev. w. F. Locke, pastor Of
Mount Vernon N. Z. Church, who offered
the prayer, and by Rev. Carl G. Doney,
D. D., OF fIamline Church. who read the
Scripture.
Judge Atkinson made the initial ad-
dress IN which he referred to the good
work Of the society and TO the purposes
and plans Of the Home Culture Union,
one of its departments, that had planned
the present meeting. He described the
Christian home as the source Of those in
fuences that go 10 make good society. He
claimed that the men of the future who
are to handle the affairs of the state are
in training to-day by good fathers and
mothers.
DR.. J. E. Gilbert, secretary of the So
ciety, spoke on Man in the Home" He
claimed shat man is obligated to do
more for his home than for any other in
sttution or interest. He should bring
into it his strength, his intelligence, his
virtue, the products of his industry and
his religion. He should become an ideal
or pattern man, no suspicion ever rest
ing upon him, so that wife and children
might point to him with pride. He
should be the house-band. the husband
by his character and wisdom giving
unity, conference, and stability to the
home. The man should find retirement and
refreshment in his home, and 90 thence
10 bless the world.
Mrs G.. T. Smallwood, principal Of
Washington Seminary, delivered an ad-
dress of singular beauty, full of wise
suggestion, on Woman in the Home.
She delineated the wOmanly character in
admirable language, and then showed
how such character may serve the home
This ideal woman, she claimed, should be
companion, a guide, a comforter, a
teacher Under the last head she out
lined the course of lessons which a
woman may give as no other can give
them. on honesty, truthfulness, chastity,
industry, sacrifice. claiming that these
lessons need to be learned in the home.
The large audience manifested its in
terest throughout the meeting by the
closest attention, and at the end many
fingered to congratulate the speakers. It
was announced that other sessions OF the
union will be held.
