SPIDERS aRE
 USEFUL BUGS

1 think it can be said that there never has been one absolutely authcn- tic case of spider bite. The so called spider bites received occasionally, and generally in early summer often in bed. are inflicted by certain blood sucking insects of several species, large and small The mandibIes Of the average sized spiders are hardly powerful enough to pierce the human skin, and an of thc poison contained In an arachnld's glands injected into the flesh Of a human biUg will not make as much fuss as a respectable bee sting Moreover. spiders are not mammal bluodsuckers and wouldn't bite if they could So much for the negative qualities of spiders.
 if it were not for the spiders we should an promptly starvc to death. Perhaps this is a little startling; it is none the less true. To enlarge upon it. certain spiders prey upon certain caterpulars, regularly inhabit their abodes and kin so many Of them that often whole colonies of the insects arc wiped out of existence. These cater pillars normally feed upon the leaves of trees, bushes and shrubs, frequent ly entirely dcnudIng a plant lf they were plentiful enough to exhaust their common food they would turn to the weeds and grasses Without check of any kind they would overrun the earth and destroy every green and growing thing, The spiders be0uu- fully preserve tue balance of nature.- S.

Girls With soyd Names.

Girls with boys names and boys with girls have received them in many instances no doubt by accident. It was so in the case of George Anne Belamy, the famous eighteenth cen tury actress, who played Juliet to Garrlcks Romeo. Born on St. George day, she was to be called GeOrgIana, but somebody's blunder at the time of her christening split this into George Anne. The "corn law rhy- mer." Ebenezer Elliott, had a daugb- ter named Noah, whose passport is said to have given her much trouble abroad. But here, as in the case of other girl Noahs, 1t was only other peoples Biblical ignorance that was at fault, for turn up Numbers xxxvi, II, and you will find that Mahlah, Tir- zah, HOglah Micah and Noah were the daughters of Zelophehad.-LOndon Graphic.
