Practically indispensable in the Con.
struction of Telescopes for the
Astronomer

The threads of the garden spider
are fixed by astronomers in their tele
scopes for the purpose Of giving fne
lines to the field of view, by which
the relative positions of stars may be
accurately measured.
For a century astronomers desired
to make use of such lines of the great
est possible fineness, and procured at
first silver wire drawn out to the ex-
treme limit of tenuity attainable with
that metal. They also tried hairs

of the silkworm's cocoon, which are
split into two component threads,
each only 1-200th of an inch thick. But
in 1920 an English instrument maker
named Throughton introduced the
spiders line. This can be readily OBJ
tanned three or four times smaller
than the silkworm's thread, and has
also advantages in its strength and
freedom from twist.
In order to obtain the thread tfls
spider is carefully fixed on minis
ture "rack," and the thread, which az

a viscid liquid, is made to adhere ts
a winder, by turning which the desirei

CHAPTER XIII.

In the colorless days that followed

ing of his final plans. Fortunately
there were few of them; his mind
would never have been equal to intri-
cate detail.
1t was slight consolation to him to
realize that the city had habit of
judging men by personal rather than
by financial standards; for all its
pride and wealth, it would censure him
more for his wrecked personality than
for whatever money losses he had
caused. He was prepared to endure
that censure; and because he under
stood the provocation behind it, he
was all the more eager to aid in the
salvage. There would be more saved
from the underwriting project, he
thought than from his character.
He had deposited with Cullen all he
owned, except for his private belong
ings, his runabout, and trivial sum
for current expenses. The runabout
he would offer for sale; it meant few
hundred dollars more to be. divided
among his contributors. Beyond that
there was nothing else he could re-
store to them.
He didn't believe that Harmon
would ever carry out his promised be-
trayal; not that he had faith in Har-
mons code of ethics, but because he
trusted Harmon's horse sense. If Hill
lizard were alone to be accused, Har-
mon would gain nothing and might, If
he offered any adverse testimony. even
implicate himself. Indeed, If Harmon
should say enough to establish the
proof in the dangerous status of an ac-
cessory before the fact. No ;.

He had tried to explain himself to

ficult to decide whether Carol herself.
in protesting that she wanted to re-
tain him as friend, had meant that
and nothing more, or that and a great
deal more. But no matter what she
had intended to convey. he dared not

go to her again, he dared not see her

but he couldn't lie to her now,
and every word of truth would prove
a boomerang. He was trapped: and
although his heart was breaking for
the love he had almost won second
time, he remained steadfast to the
ideals he had created. If Carol were
to lose him as sutton, she should new
erl know that her first and. foremost
sutton had gone TO the devil.
He told himself fiercely there was
one definite and permanent way out
OF 1t. Nobody would then have
cause to gossip about Dicky Morgan;
