NJ. Fabre very reasonably concludes that

trate the animal directly and charge IL
with activity, even as the battery charges
an accumulation with poWer? M. Pabre
asks, "Why not live on sun, seeing that
after all, we find nought but sun in the
fruits which we consumer!
The banded epeira Is the handsomest OF
the southern French spiders On her lat
belly, mighty silk warehouse nearly as
large as a hazel nut, are alternate yellow,
black and silver sashes.
The epeira constructs a magnificent
radiatlng upright web. In the lower part
of the web, starting from the centre. a
wide Opaque ribbon descends zigzag-wise
across the radii. This is the epeira's trade
mark. The flourish OF an artist initiating
his creation.
"That the spider feels satisfied when.
after passing and repassing from spoke to
spoke, she finishes her spiral Is beyond
doubt" comments M. Fabre. "The work
achieved insures her food for a few days
to come"
Describing the artistic taste and archi-
tectural skill OF this spider, the author
says:
"The epeira ends her web with a dead
white angular flourish; she ends her nest
with brown mouldlngs; which run down
irregularly from the marginal junction to
the bulging middle. For this purpose she
silk; she then produces silk OF a dark
hue, varying from russet to black. The
spinnerets distribute the material with a
wide longitudinal swing from pole to
pole, and the hindlegs apply it In CAPRI
cious ribbons.
NJ. Fabre has observed that the epeira
Is ambidextrous, a valuable quality In the
struggle for existence to which man has
so far aspired in vain. In whatever d.
rection she turns, she uses the nearest
of her eight legs with the same dexterity.
The spider uses her web in some mys.
terious way as telegraph wire. When a
fly or other possible prey touches the
most distant part Of the web she hastens
to the spot, but If the structure is dis
turbed by man she hides herself. There
Is reason to believe that the web carries
to her news Of just what is happei-ing
on it.
After showing that the spider is a skilled
aeroplan1st, an architect, handler Of all
sorts Of tools and implements Of precision,
NJ. Fabre goes on to adduce evidence from
the form OF the web that this insect pos
sesses a knowledge Of geometry, mathe-
matics and logarithms.
Taken as q whole" he says, "the rope
latticed edihce consists Of a series OF
cross-bars, intersecting the several radiat-
ing lines obliquely at angles Of equal
value
by this characteristic we recognize the
'logarithmic spiral' Geometricians give
this name to tho cuSve which intersects
obliquely at angles Of unvarying value
all the straight lines or 'radii vectores'
radiatng from q centre called the pole.
The epeira's construction. therefore, is a
series Of cords joining the intersections oA
logarlthmic spiral with series of radii.
1t would become merged In this spiral IL
the number Of radli were infinite, for this
would reduce the length Of the rect1linear
elements indefinitely and change this poly-
gonal line into a curve.

One Of the myste-
ries of spider life Is
that the young Of
the turantula and
other species, while
they are on the
mothers back for
months, take no food

vances the interest

energy, thus sug-

spiders have solved
a problem which 1s
regarded as the ulti-

science.

Last Nieht's PLAY.

John Fox's delightful story, ''The
Trail of the Lonesome Pine" drama
tized by Eugene Walter. was presented
at the opera house last night to a
large and very responsive audience.
While following closely the characters
of the widely read novE the company
presenting it last night succeeded in
setting it off in as elaborate scenic
dress as was ever doneswith a drama.
Miss Isabelle Lowe rs June" and
w E. Knobloe as "S1hn Hale, en-
gineer at the Gap" assumed the lead
ing roles and were supported by an
excellent company. The scenery waS
particularly fine, especially in the f1Tkt
act. A magnificent setting is made
for this act, towering clumps of
rhododendron, and the water falling
from it's heights into a purling brook.
The barefooted characters Of June
foreshadows from the first the greatest
OF all the miracles of girlhood-the
dawn of love and awakening of true
wornsnhood The clever dramatist
lends a shadow which runs through
the play like a cloud through sunshine.

and his mountain rival.
The ladies and children of the city
will have an opportunity Of witness

at the usual matinee hour.
