Bible With a History.

THE Bible Of the Rev. John
Newton, hymn-writer and d.
vine, has just been presented to the
library of the British and Foreign
Bible Society. There are many mar
gtnal notes and underlined verses,
which indicate how carefully the
book was read and priced. But
perhaps the most remarkable
thing about the volume is the fol-
lowing inscription which Is writ.
ten on the last page-"Into whose
ever hands this volume Of Inspira-
alton may fall after my death, 1
would gladly drop a single hint,
as caution and as my advice:
The hand that wrote 1t is now
mouldering in the Dust"

Spider Is Flyer

means OF his own devices. Like
man who followed him ages in the
rear, he learned to use silk for his
balloons, but he spun the silk out
Of his own bowels. The silk-spin-
ming power was given TO him that
he might form cocoons for egg
cases. Out Of it he developed traps
and nets for his enemies and his
prey. and gossamers for aerial
navigation. What was that but
intelligence? He also, in some OF
his species, utilized this gift to
form silk divinE-bells in which,
when he has filled them with buh-
bles of air brought down from the
surface, he can live comfortably
at the bottom Of streams.
Naturalists would say that the
female spider is so much larger
and more active than the relatively
insignificant male that | ought TO
have written she" wherever
have used he" above; but we
have been so many centuries glori-
flying man over woman in all thas
relates to achievement, invention,
politics and the management or
life that It has become second ma
ture to project the same favoritism
into the world Of the lower an
imals. where, for fact, the female
Is quite usually superior TO the
male.
Since there seems reason to he
Iicve that the ballOoning art was
of relatively late development in
the history of spiders, why should
we not indulge the imagination by
picturing the sensation in spider
dom when the first eight.legged
aeronaut rode triumphantly up to-
ward the blue sky, borne by a
long, infinitely thin, softly shin
ing thread of the purest silk,
spun from his body?
How did a spider find out that
that could be done? Accident"
YOU say. Well, even so, II re-
uuires intelligence to take q hint
from an accident; and looking at
the matter another way, how
many Of mans foremost inven-
tions have not been the offspring
Of accident? 1t was ages ago that
the spider first learned to navigate
the air, but today the newly
Matched young of a many differ
ent species make n sport Of II,
going up in glistening fleets, so
many spider Children's aerial par
ties.
Is there no sense of JOY in such
creatures? Is II reserved for man
alone to experience the ecstasy Of
breasting the pure air, high above
the world, borne up there by vir-
tue of a little spark Of divine
power in his brain? But the spi-
der has brain, too. He may not
understand specific gravity, but
only the little fellows go up, the
big ones don't try.
These silk-like balloons Of the
spiders, usually called gossamers,
sometimes descend in showers
upon the fields. ION a dewy morn
ing in late summer or early au-
tumn," says H. G. McCook,
"Rlancing over the fields and
along the country roadsides, one
will see their webs, disclosed by
the minute beads of mist caught
by the delicate threads, literally
covering the low heritage. Turn
ing the eyes to bushes and trees,
the branches, twigs and leaves are
seen to be meshed with spinning
work. In short, the whole land
scape Is overspread with the tents
and meshes Of the aranean hosts"

Planning Ahead

elbow room Is limited in both a

dependencies upon those with
whom we deal.
Life is too complicated for any
of us to hew a path ruthlessly 70

without brushing aside certain
obligations and duties to others.
] know a woman Of means and
ability who decided on the future
of each of her children in their
youth. The boy who loved to be
outdoors was to be a landscape
gardener. The girl who was al.
ways making her dolls clothes was
to be a designer. The lad who
loved his music and painting and
who seemed stepped in artistic in
terests was to be a painter.
The landscape gardener is a
banker now. He is doing happy
and constructive work. The
maker of dolls clothes is on the
stage. And the young artist" Is
in the automobile business. Ger
tain forces in these children sent
them in directions their mother
was blind to because she focused
on obvious talents and built her
dreams partly on what she fancied
she saw in her children and partly
on what she desired for them. But
they were individuals and they ex-
pressed their personalities In ways
she did not forseo.
A picnic may fall through be-
cause 1t rains on the day for
which II is planned. A career may
change because of certain condi-
tions which send It off at a tan
gent-or in it's normal high road.
In all our planning II Is well to re-
member the Divine Power and its
unsearchablC ways. In all our
dreaming II Is well to realize the
changeabllity and mutuability Of
human nature.

OF sweaters, and II is inter
estIng TO note the Indian in
fIuence that has crept into the
modes in the past few months,
Even the skirts show the fringed
bottoms and the eccentric Indian
design bordering them.
Tan angora may be fashioned
INTO an attractive sweater for out
door sports wear. favored with
gay Indian design OF bright red.
One straight model comes to the
hips, and no belt is used. With
this sweater a tan skirt Is worn,
cross SHARED in red and fringed at
the bottom. Tan and brown sport
shoes and tan wooden hose COM
plete the costume.
Another smart sweater to wear
over a blouse, with collar and cuffs
outside, is OF dust-colored silk and
wool knit loosely. A stripe OF
orange and one of black is run
through the sweater at intervals.
A skirt of orange is worn,
Blue and white wool create tn
ether fetching sweater made in
striped effect that runs around the
body, worn with a white flannel
skirt with blue border at the bot
tom.
Plain Colored sweaters are not 80
popular this season as last, hut
when worn with a striped necktie
or plaid wool skirt are more con.
servative than ones of vivid d.
sign.
Almost all the newest models
clip on over the head, with long
sleeves and high neck. One gem
orally wears a blouse with these,
Jut many are worn with a collar
and cuff set. Occasionally one
finds a smart coat sweater, and
those sweaters are preferred by
the more mature figures.
Black and white is always con
sidered correct, and one finds many
attractive models made up in these
two tones. Crossbar effects,
stripes and borders are among the
white trimmings that one finds on
black sweaters, and vice versa.
One may choose almost any
vivid color or design this season
and wear It with a skirt equally as
vivid, with bright sprawling pat

satisfied.
Cherry had been enjoying her
self with Alix and Peter; there
was no question of that. She
seemed to grow younger by the
hour. Dinah, whose grins rather
startled Alix. took delight when
ever she saw Peter and Cherry
together.
After the excitement OF her ar
rival had worn off Cherry began
to wonder about Peter; he seemed
so very devoted to her; 30 very
tender. Alix had written shortly
before his departure abroad that
some woman had broken his
heart by marrying. Cherry

knew and wondered more and

was the man for Cherry. Now
that he was married to her sister
she had accepted the fact without
in the least changing her belief.
When she saw them once mors
on the old familiar terms she could
not restrain her satisfaction.
What are you smiling about.

incursions into the sitting room.

queer light had sprung into Chez
