Inaenious Spiders.

Spiders have a number of ingeni-
Gus ways of alluring and catching
their prey. A writer describes an
American spider which haunts ever
green trees and snares its dinner by
means of kind of lasso. The web
Of the spider is triangular in form.
Two corners of the triangle are at
tached to twigs, but the other cor
ner, which ends in single thread,
is held by the spider, perched on a
neighboring twig. When fly strikes
the web the spider loosens his hold,
and the elastic threads instantly en-
tangle the victim.

The girls face went crimson at
the praise and its suggestion, but
she smiled into the freckled face be-
fore she turned to Arthur.
'T shall see that Robert is pun
ished if he repeats his offense," she
promised, "and l don't blame such
loyal little hero worshipsr for de-
Tending his big brother. I don't
blame him one Bit" she added, col
oring again as she let her eyes rest
for an instant on the grave, hand
some face. II shall be glad to see
you should you care to be neighbor-
ly, Mr.. Lynwood. Mother is i'm
proving, but she wishes to be strong
er before she faces the influx of the
kindly and the curious"
"I shall be glad to run in this
evening if | may" was the quick
response, and Arthur was too eager
for an answer to observe the elabo-
rate wink with which Dick favored
him.
The girl gave assent promptly,
and the big and the little brother
bowed. Dick hung back at the Lyn-
wood gate.
'I got something to do" he ex-
planned reproachfully. "You were
late this evening. You always come
home about 5"
"a client came in at the last mo-
ment," explained Arthur. "Were
you waiting to see me?"
"Only about an hour" answered
Dick. t1 figured she would lay for
you at the gate, and I wanted to fin
ish off the job. I'll be home in about
an hour, Art"
He dashed off down the street
and by a circuitous route reached
the rear of the Shelby house, where
the plump and somewhat cherubic
Robert was playing by himself.
He started to run when Dick ap-
peared on the scene, but the more
active lad had his victim pinioned
by the arms, while one mittened
hand was clapped over the squirm-
ing ones mouth.
II amt going to hurt you-now,"
promised Dick. Il just want to
talk to you. You told your sister
that I punched you for nothing,
didn't you?"
"That's just what you did," wall
ed Bob Shelby.
"That amt so," corrected Dick.

added fercely, and the shrinking
lad assured his lord and master that
he certainly could.

explained Dick. you're so soft

owing to the sharp bend that part
OF the continent makes to the east,
is really much nearer to the Euro
