NOT TO BE CAUGHT MAPPING
Uncle Tobe Lived Up to His Reputa-

His Bet.

There lives In certain Vermont
town quaint old character known
as Uncle Tobe." who is so conserva-
tive of action and speech that 1t
is most difficult ct times to get any
thing definite from him. Uncle Tobe.
like the Father OF His Country, has the
reputation of never having told a lie.
and in addition he is SO cautious of
statement that he has never been
known to tell an innocent untruth.
On one occasion his doctor. in con-
versation with friends touching Uncle
Tobe's characteristics, ventured to lay
bet of five dollars that he could cause
Uncle Tobe to tell what wasn't so. A
Eeighbor promptly took the bet.
The doctor walked into Uncle Tobe's
house next morning. and while he was
talking with the old man, the neighbor
who had taken the bet drove up to the
gate. Uncle Tobe went to see what he
wanted, and then the doctor. as he had
agreed to do. went out the back door
and hid in the barn.
Good morning, Tobe," said the Wis
itor. ''is the doctor In your house?"
He was there when l came out"
said Uncle Tobe.

Spiders Wonderful Web.

The spider is SO repulsive as to

spiders can exterminate. The house

execrate the flies, but they would
rather have a million flies than one
spider; yet this infinitely disgusting
creation of incomprehensible nature
produces thread and with magical fa-
cility filings 1t into wonderful web
forms which battle all explanation of
the geometrlcian.
Few of the curiosities of the myriad
insect world are SO marvellous as the
spinning of the spider and the silk.
worm. Many attempts have been made
to utilize the spider for the produc-
ton of silk. but the worm remains
the almost absolute monopolist, though
artificial silks are made from cotton
and other material by an expensive
treatment which are claimed to be
equal to the real article in luster
and elasticity.
