that one strand Of silk which you
see is really not a single strand.
It is many fine strands twisted
together like rope"
How does she DIP that asked
Bobby.
.In this way" I explained:
when the gum comes from her
body, it does not come in one
stream-it comes from many tiny
holes in the spinneret -but stimuli
taneously-at the same moment.
That is the trick. That slender
siIken thread which you see will
hold a much heavier weight thar
you would imagine.
Just then the little spider de-
cided to drop down to the lower
part Of her web, so she just spun
a line and dropped down like a
sailor on q rope. 4
Look at that" exclaimed Bob

~ EAR MISS FAIRFAX:
am q girl of seventeen.
- have been going with a
young man for three weeks and
have fallen in love with him.
My parents and friends object
to my going with him because
he is not Of my religion.
He has asked me to elope with
him. SHIRLEY.
YOUR parents are right Shir-
l. ley. You are too young to
know what love is. And you are
far too young to undertake the
responsibilities of marriage. Be-
sides, you haven't known this
young man long enough to be sure
you love him.
Don't think Of clipping or mar.
rying without your parents con-
sent. Put sentimentality and love
out of your head for the next few
years and have jolly times with
the young people who have your
parents approval.

DIGIT in the corner Of our
porch she was working
how busy she was, that little
spider who had decided to make
her home with US.
''She's going to have a fine pro
protected home said Bobby while
we watched the web increase in
size as she ran back and forth
making the spokes Of her silken
wheel.
'That's a strange thing, Bobby,
said I. "All other insects which
make webs, build them for pro-
lection against their enemies.
Spiders build their webs-not
as a protection for themselves,
but to entice other insects into
tho snare. so that the spiders can
eat them up"
Like a trap said Bobby.

their food" said Bunny. Have

isn't it wonderful how that stuff
to make the web came right out
Of the spiders mouth?''
That's where you're wrong,
! said.
"Why. Foxy Grandpa?" asked
Bobby.
"I'N tell you," I said. "The
silk does not come out Of the
SPIDERS mouth. Now look close
ly. At the end of the spiders
body are tiny organs called spin
nerets."
"Spinnerets, repeated Bobby.
Sounds like a musical instru-
ment."
''Out of these little spinnerets
at the back Of the spiders body
comes a gluey, sticky fluid. The

and. as she goes she drags behind
her a thread. 1t is this gum
which, as soon as it touches the
air, turns into silk.
"Oh!" said Bobby, shaking his
head to indicate that he under
stood clearly.
"And the wonderful thing about
this thread is the strength Of it.

The Biggest and Best Story of
Her Career.

II TIC OtkAC0S anu @S>SS 1850 -
Her Career.
ONE day after the work on the
~ building in the south was well
launched Natalie said: what am
I going to do, Dane, when this
is finished?"
She had her hands clasped on
the table, her face with its pal
lid, cameo vividness, down tilted.
Plans Made.
He leaned toward her: Have
you no plans, Natalie?''
''None that I can count on
"can't you make some?''
ST havey' She drew her. palms
together and glanced at him with
dark. lighted eyes: II have made
plans, Daniel"
''well, then?''
She turned to the chair where
her cloak was thrown, and an
swered with falling voice: Plans
are not enoughi Oh anyone can
plan
She fumbled. reaching for her
coat. The sight Of her distress
fired and drew him. He held the
cloak, watching her profile and
the sad eagerness of her chiseled
lips.
She turned to him with gayety.
He didn't know whether he bent
TO her or she reached to him,
, but they kissed and his hands
were on her shoulders, his voice
husky: Natalie, three things you
must answer me-.
Three things, Dane?''

must visit you in Russia in
the next ten or twenty years?

She pressed her folded hands
against her lips, a stain filing
across her pallor. She looked up
at him with frightened eyes that
had in them a Wild. radiant
prayer: eff I had the courage Z

She noticed his quick change of
color and laughed: '.You blush
with pleasure, merry one? I
thought you might be wishing
to take me to dinner by way of
a surprise
Fine was waiting for Harri-
son. He's late. Come on! Let's

He scrubbed on a card: Called

He stuck this In little metal
frame on the door, caught her
arm and went swiftly down the
hall. She noticed his almost
feverish unrest and the sudden
lapses into profound, troubled
silence when he became momen-
tarily unconscious OF her pres
ence. He reused from these with
nervous seif-reproach.

She never for = moment sus-

never guessed he was agitatedly
seeing Natalie standing before his
closed door, restiiEs s1z&1 kastZ
scrawl and wondering what kind
OF a cad he was to run out OF the
thing like that.
She never dreamed things had
or could reach such pass. She
would have felt besmirched, stain

him SO.
Yet two weeks later the merest
chance recalled this dinner-re-

seemed all about TO die.
Her car was in the shop for

So she decided to drop down in a
