TELEPHONE OF SPIDER WEB
Large, Ugly Insect Is Easily Deceived
BY Tuning Fork Placed on One
of the Tiny Threads.

A gentleman in Ohio was watch
Ing some spiders, when it occurred to
him to try what effect the sound of
a tuning fork would have upon them.
He suspected that they would take 1t
for the buZzing of fly.
He selected a large, ugly spider that
had been feasting on flies for two
months. The spider was at one edge
of it's web. Sounding the fork, the
man touched a thread at the other
side and watched the result. Mr.. Spi-
der had the buzzing sound conveyed
to him over his telephone wires, but
how was he to know on which partic-
ular wire it was travelling?
He ran to the center of the web
very quickly and felt all around un.
til he touched the thread against the
other end of which the fork was
sounding; then, taking another thread
along, just as man would take an
extra piece of rope, he ran out to the
fork and sprang upon it,
Then he retreated little way and
looked at the fork. He was puzzled
He had expected to find buzzing fly
He got on the fork again and danced
with delight. Evidently the sound was
| music to him.

NEEDLE FLOATING ON WATER
Simplest Way Is to Lay Tiny Piece Of
Steel on Tissue Paper-Latter
Will Soon Sink.

There are several ways of making
a needle float on the surface of the
water. The simplest way is to place
piece of tissue paper OH the water
and lay the needle on 1t, the paper
soon becomes soaked with water and
sinks to the bottom, while the needle
is left floating on the top.
Another method is to hang the
needle in two sings made of threads,
which must be carefully drawn away
as soon as the needle floats.
If you magnetic sewing needle by
rubbing 1t on a fairly strong magnet.
and float 1t on the water, 1t will make
an extremely sensitive compass, and
If you place two needles on the water
at the same time you will see them
slowly approach each other until they
float side by side; that is, If they do
not strike together so heavily as to
cause them to sink.

LEARNING ART OF COUNTING
African Savages Have Interesting
Method of calculating-Use
Both Feet and Hands.

Do you remember learning to
count? | dare say not. But l am
pretty sure you learned to count on
your fingers, or perhaps you were
given bright counters or shells to use
instead
Savages learn to count In just the
same ways; most of them use their
fingers, and SO they learn to count
by tens as we do, and some of them
give their numbers very funny names.
The Indians on the Orinoco call five
"one hand" and ten two hands," But
they use their feet as we'll and call
fifteen whole foot" sixteen zone to
the other foot" and twenty "one
man." This plan becomes very com
plicated with higher figures, for twen-
ty-one is "one to the hand of the next
man"
The African savages count in much
the same way. The Zulu for six is
"tatisitupa," which means taking the
thumb" that is, the man who is
counting has used the five fingers of
one hand. and is beginning to use the
second hand, starting at the thumb.
Some races use the joints, of the
finger instead Of the fingers them
selves. and they are very badly off.
for they can only count up to three
Some Australian tribes count thus
one, two, two-one, two-two, and can
go no further. Other races have only
three words. one" "two." "a great
many"
But savages sometimes use other
things for counting than fingers or
joints. Our own word Calculate"
means working with pebbles" One
African tribe calls forty "ogodze, y
which means String" because they
use cowrie shells strung together by
forties for counting. Their name for
hundred is "yha," which means
heap is. a heap of cowries.
