spider bites received occasionally. and

negative qualities Of spiders.
If it we're not for the spiders We
should all promptly starve to death.
Perhaps this Is n little startling; 1t Is
none the less true. TO enlarge upon
it. certain spiders prey upon certain

TWO MEN AND A TIP.
An incident In Broadway Lunch
Room In New York.


4 business man who in his univer
Sly days had been n devoted student
Of ethics sat down in lower Broad
Wy lunch room n few days ago and
saw something that awakened par
t!cular train of thought in channels
unused since his student days.
Directly opposite him two men were
finishing their midday meal. One. n
sprucely dressed chap, slipped his last
drop Of coffee, placed dime on the
table in front OF his empty cup and
dressed, took little longer time over
his coffee before preparing 10 go.
Then just as he was about to rise he
furtively passed his hand over to the
dime in front of his former neighbours
plate and moved it TO n position in
front Of his own. He then walked
hastily out. The waiter moment
later picked up the dime. noting be-
fore whose plate it was. and cleaned
away the dishes. mumbling the while.
Now the former college man is won
dering whether this is not case where
he can aptly apply those words OF
Shakespeare. "Who steals my purse
steals trash. but he that
flches from me my good name robs
me of that which not enriches him

The Ton Hat.

Tall hats. ''pearkin up like the spire
Of steeple II quarter OF yard above
the crowne,' as sixteenth century
writer describes them. were known i'll
the time of Elizabeth, and the puri-
tans affected them until they merged
into the old fashioned beavers of our
great grandfathers' days. Top hats of
silk appeared first In Florence about
1900. and twenty years later silk hats
with felt bodies were introduced into
England. About 1910 the French silk
hat was placed on the market and at
once adopted in the familiar chimney
pot" shape. There were several vari-
cites Of II. such as the Wellington hat.
with the yeoman crown; the AnSleSea
hat, bell shaped ut the top, and the
D'Orsay hat. with ribbed silk binding
and a big bow The color also varied.
Thus the Earl of Harrington started Il
craze for green top hats by wearing
one I'm his garden with the idea OF not
frightening the birds. He also tested
his silk hats by standing upon them.
The top hat. however, was never SO
favored by any great parsonage as to
account for It's general adoption.-Lon-
