/ SPIDERS THREAD HAS VALUE
Practically indispensable in the Con-
structicn of Telescopes foe the
Astronomer.

The threads of the garden spider
are fixed by astronomers in their tele-
scopes for the purpose Of giving fine
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 fneness, and procured at
first silver wire drawn out to the ex-
treme limit of tenuity attainable with
that metal. They also tried hairs
(1-5OOth Of an inch thick), and threads
of the siIkworm,s cocoon. which are
split into two component threads,
each only 1-20Oth 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 AMI
freedom from twist.
In order to obtain the thread the
spider is carefully fixed on a nainia-
ture ssrack," and the thread, which at
the moment Of issue from the body is
a viscfd liquid, is made to adhere to
a winder, by turning which the desired
length OF firm but elastic thread can
be procured.

cost Of the building is low, h.;;tt the In.

While 1t may be a little early to be

that will not be needed until next
winter, it is wise plan under present
conditions to make arrangements fol
any contemplated building as far In

Contractors everywhere are busy and
material dealers must place their or
ders with manufacturers several
months in advance. This hoghouse
can be built in the late fall or early
winter, so long as the concrete floor is
laid before frost comes. The balance
of the building is of lumber and can
be erected at any time.
Nothing raised on the farm is more
profitable than hogs. These animals
bring high prices, the demand con
stantly is growing and with propet
housing and care a maximum number
of young pigs can be brought to ma
turity. Health is the prime essential
that makes for profitable hog raising
and to be healthy, hogs must be kept
in clean and sanitary quarters.
A hoghouse with a cement floor is
easy to clean. Where water under
pressure is available the cement floors
can be washed and the litter that is

remember very much about Henry
HiIliard It would save such deal Of
needless trouble it would save such a
wearisame amount of shame.
But against the pitiless background
Of the war, self-destruction as a means
of avoiding personal difficulties, self
caused, seemed curiously repellent-
curiously cheap.
No .. it was part of his own
grievance that Carol and the others
must grieve, too; he had dual re-
sponsibility to@society. He had no
right to leave these matters clouded by
any uncertainty of motive. Syracuse
had a right to know the facts; and if
the facts brought pain to those he
loved, why, that was something he
should have thought about in June.
and not in November.
AS he chung comfortless to the last
Shining hours of the reputation he
had so carefully builded, he knew that
it wasn't the punishment of the law
that he dreaded, it was the ostracism
which would accompany it. 1t wasn't
his own shame which gripped him, 1t
was the consciousness of the shame
which would attach to his friends.
And so, for day or two. all his fac
ulties were strung upon the attitude
of the public toward him; he was
watching frantically for the first signs
of adverse demeanor, and bracing HIM
self for the shock which was unavoid-
ably to come For secrets will out,
and although he had no reason to ex-
pect Warning to break his pledge, he
knew that when rainor smoiders

comes-there always comes-a mo-
ment In which it bursts forth in spon-
taneous combustion.
Presently he sensed subtle super
charging of the atmosphere whenever
he met a male acquaintance; he
couldn't deny that the greeting Of his
bankers was suddenly less informal,
more impersonal; he perceived, with a
sinking spasm Of foreboding, that
fewer people stopped to chat with him

The carabaos Of the Philippine Is

colored, and their thick hides are

their thick, long horns give them

are quite harmless under ordinary
