ElY.traps Of Spiders Nests.

Spiders nests are used in Mexico
as fly-traps. During the rainy season
the villages are invaded by numbers
Of flies and other insects. To rid a
house of these pests, the natives hang
the branch Of tree bearing a spiders
nest to a nail in the ceiling. The sur
face of the nest enlarges cOncentrical-
ly after each capture of an insect
and 1t exercises an irresistible attrac-
ton on flies. When a spiders nest
is opened it is found to be filled with
insects. Experiments made with
paper nests so manufactured as to be
exact copies of the real nests show
that flies will not enter them.
Though very small, and apparently
insignificant, the inhabitant Of the
mosquero attacks insects far more i'm
portant in size than the largest house
fy. The wasp is one Of its favorite
victims, and the wasp always gets the
worst OF the struggle.

TAX ON WHISPERS.
When EneIishmen Paid for Theli
Boards and Their Babies.

Now that we are all crying out
about our heavy taxation found ii Il
teresting lately to come across some
old documents relating to taxes of
former times and reigns. Allowing
for the difference in the value of
money from one period to another,
those ancients leyies seem to have
been pretty heavy and extremely
varied.
Our men folk may be thankful that
they have not now, as in the days of
the eighth Henry to pay tax for the
privilege of wearing a beard, a tax
that was moreover a graduated one,
the sliding scale being regulated &C.
cording to the status of the wearer.
A certain Sheriff at Canterbury, for
example, had to pay three shillings
and fourpence for his whiskers. He
would not have won much sympathy
from Mr. Frank Richardson. Queen
Elizabeth, with even more stringent
notions OH this subject, fixed a SINH
lar tax on every beard of over two
weeks growth.
At a later period ii was decided TO
place tax on the birth of every child
in England, and a sliding scale was
also employed here. The baby of a
Duke born in the year 1885 cost its
proud father G30, while on the in
fant of a commoner the tax was but
two shillings.
Widowers and bachelors who had
decided to retain the joys of single
blessedness were compelled TO con-
tribute to the State, and long before
the HarcOurt death duties were
dreamed of it was also quite a costly
matter to die.
Nearer our own day the window
tax was invented by William Pitt, and
in the reign of George |. it was neces-
sary to have a license TO sell hats,
and there was also a tax on hair pow
der, watches and clocks.-English
Lady's Pictorial.

Learned from the Sand.

Mummy matter Is easy to under
stand when a plain story is told. The
Oldest Egyptians naturally learned
that when dead folk were buried in
hot dry sand, along came wind
storm in a year or so and blew the
sand back to the living with a start
ling reality that often suggested they
were not really dead at all, but that
the windstorm was part of higher
power bringing the departed back to
day and light There was no end OF
salt, soda and borax handy on the
edge of the desert to help dry up and
keep the dead. 1t was only second
nature for initiative man to do what
nature had done, and Egyptians be-
gan to mummify their dead. Egyp-
tians always believed man had two
souls. one (which flew to the gods"
named Ba, and a second soul, named
Ka. which stayed on earth and dwelt
In the body or somewhere around the
neighborhood OF the body.

The DIVING Bell.

The history of diving reaches back
into the dim and distant past. Alex
ander the Great is said to have de-
scended in a machine which kept him
dry while making some kind OF sub
marine investigation. Aristotle men
tions a device which enabled men TO
remain some time under water. In
a book published early in the six
teenth century appears a picture OF a
man wearing a helmet, to which Is
fastened a leather tube foated on the
surface of the water by an inflated
bag. In 1888 two Greeks made sub
marine trip under an inverted cham
Der. which kept them dry. This was
in the presence Of the Emperor
Charles V. and some 10000 specta-
tors.

NOW TO STAND IN A CAR.
Precise Position Of Feet Prescribed
by Brooklyn Expert.

A Brooklyn man who probably
speaks from long experience writes to
Shop Notes Quarterly to give advice
upon how to maintain equilibrium
when compelled to stand In q car.
MANY persons" he says, sway
backward and forward as well as
from side to side. This often throws
them into awkward positions, especi-
ally when carrying parcels, which
makes strap hanging impracticable.
"To overcome the difficulty one
should place the feet seven or eight
inches apart and one little behind
the other, say about three inches,
with the toes pointing out. l have
seen business men reading news
papers and standing In this way when
riding to and from work with little
more inconvenience than IL standing

It is no longer considered good form

ShoeinQ Mules.

The hoof of the mule, being smaller
and tougher than that of the average
horse, does not need shoeing unless
worked on hard roads a great deal. It
is better not to have them shod If con-

used to haul heavy loads on frozen
ground.
