Just q Word of Advice.

The rumor that someone not a
newspaper man has had designs
upon an "endowed newspaper" at a
certain range point which has been
the subject of some comment in the
past couple of issues as we'll as in
other range papers, leads us to re-
late the true facts of Andrew Car.
negie's recent flight for Europe in
such a precipitous manner.
Under the influence of the balmy
sunshine of California Mr.. Carnegie
|spat out something about ian en-
dowed newspaper" and ere he had
struck New York his original words
had been twisted and shuff1ed into
such shape that he positively had
to flee for safety. For mighty
army, increasing with every day,
hour and tick of the clock, launched
Themselves on Mr.. Carnegie by
mail, telegram, telephone and per.
sonal call, insisting that each were
qualified to take charge of the pro.
posed protege of Mr.. Carnegie's
liberality.
It wac then that come kind friend
took Mr.. Carnegie to one side and
talked to him in the following fash.
ION: "Now, Andy, you nave certain
plans about your libraries. Yesi
And you don't want to die rich. Yes!
And you would rather give your
money to hero funds, libraries, and
such. Yes?
"Well, that being true, do you
want to see all the United States
Steel bonds melt like snow on a red.
hot stove? No? Then get this en-
dowed newspaper idea out of your
head. Do it quick. You will be
broke higher than kite long before
your time to die if you go fooling
around newspaper Office. You
won't have car fare to Pittsburg OF
the price of a tenement lodging
house bed inside of three years
Don't you know that a newspaper
shop, with tariff. protected wood
pulp and few other things of the
like, can eat up more money than
you can save-unless, mark me
Andy, you are born with nose fol
news and able to fill a Job more diff
ficult than the ambassadorship tc
St. James-in word, be ninety.nine
things at one time and poorer thar
the misguided church mouse. Flee
Andy, while there is yet time"
And Andy, taking the advice, hied
himself to Skibo castle, where he il
safe from the army of would-be edi
tors of an "endowed paper" for nc
editor will ever be able to make the
trip from America to Skibo unit
such time as the big pond freezes
over and one may make the trip or
snow-shoes.

SPIDER INSTINCT.
Cutting a Web Thread to Escape From
an Intruder.


The instinct Of the spider is always
an interesting subject for study. Re,
gently a naturalist placed a small spi-
der In the center OF a large SPIDERS
web some four feet above ground.
The large spider soon rushed from its
hiding place under a leaf to attack the
Intruder, which ran up one Of the as.
cending lines by which the web was
secured 10 the foliage.
The big insect gained rapidly upon
the little one, but the fugitive was
equal to the emergency, for when
barely an inch ahead of the other It
cut with one OF its rear legs the line
behind itself, thus securing its own es-
cape the ferocious pursuer falling to
the ground.
The naturalist says: ut is not the
habit Of spiders to cut the slender
thread below them when they are as.
cending 10 avoid some threatened dan.
ger unless there is a hole close at
hand-and a hole that is known TO be
unoccupied." From this it would seem
that the little creatures action was the
result Of some sort Of reasoning. In
stinct led it to run away but It must
have been something more than in
stinct that led it to sever the line and
80 cut off the pursuit
The same naturalist says that spi-
ders are cannibals and that they are
naturally pugnacious. But they do not
fight for the satisfaction Of eating one
another when two spiders fight
there is generally n very good reason
for the attack and the vigorous de-
Tense that follows.
ut is not generally known that after
a certain time spiders become inca
pabe Of spinning web from lack
of material The glutinous excretion
from which the slender threads are
spun is limited, therefore spiders can.
not keep on constructing new snares
when the old ones are destroyed. But
they can avail themselves Of the web
producing powers Of their younger
neighbors, and this they do without
scruple. As soon as a spiders web
constructing material has become ex-
hausted and its last web destroyed 1t
sets out in search Of another home,
and unless 1t should chance to find one
that is tenantless a battle usually en-.
sues, which ends only with the retreat
or death Of the invader or defender

the left hand finger stuck and pushed
the coin halfway over the die. That
