A gentleman was recently watching some spiders, when it occurred to him to try what effect the sound of a tun ing fork would have upon them. lie suspected that they would take it for the buzzing of a fly. He selected a large, ugly spider that had been feast ing on flies for about two months. The spider was at one edge of its web. Sounding the fork, the man touched a thread at the other side and watched the result. Mr. Spider had the buzzing sound conveyed to him over his telephone wires, but how was iie to know on which particular wire it was travel ing?

We draw from deep waters of sorrow Dark wrecks of old failure and fear. And out of Rea silence wo borrow The storm that will never come near. Faith epeeds past the footsteps of duty And halts at the door of a tomb; T 1 louglit pierces the source of all beauty And returns unto dust—’tis the doom Of each man child to strive and to wonder, To p’an for some positive gain, An;l only find mysteries under All life, be it pleasure or pain. Lo, in realms of the mind there is treasure For toilers who dwell in content; There is truth that no science ran measure, And the fearless are never forspent; There is light when earth shadows are falling, There’s reward for the deeds that are done, Where envy crowned virtues are calling, “Through faith is thy victory wonl” —Charles W. Stevenson in Chicago Record. CAR FARES IN GERMANY. The Method of Collection nnd In spection Prevent. Free Hide.. The ehauees of evading fares ou the street cars of G-rman cities are very slight. When a passenger steps on a car, the conductor immediately asks where he is golhg and then prepares his ticket, which serves also as a re ceipt for the fare. The preparation of a ticket consists only in detaching It from a block and punching It or mark ing It with a pencil. This process involves much more work than the simple process of ring ing up the fares, as conductors do iu America, but the task is lightened by the fact that only a certain number of persons are permitted to ride on a car at the same time. The number of sit ting and standing places is plainly marked on each ear. If a car is de signed to carry SO persons, no more than 30 persons will be permitted on that ear at the same time. When any thing in Germany is forbidden, it is settled i nee for all. In order that every person who rides shall get the prescribed ticket inspect ors are employed who spend their time in ascertaining whether the conductors are doing their duty. These inspectors step into the cars and ask the passen gers for their tickets. They note the number of the tickets and whether they correspond with the stubs retained by the conductor. The clerk who gives out the blocks of tickets to the con ductors notes the number of the upper most ticket and at the return of each block collects from the conductor who returned it as many fares as there are tickets detached. The rate of fares varies from 2Vj cents to 5. according to the distance. Small children arc carried for one-half fare, and any one lor the sum of $2.50 may secure a ticket which entitles him to ride as much as he wishes for one month. When a ear is full, the con ductor displays a placard bearing the word “Occupied.”—Chicago Record. Nicknames of Krltlsli Reximcnti, The grenadier guards were nicknam ed “The Conlheavers” because they were at oae time allowed to work iu plain clothes at odd jobs for private employers. The Seventh foot were “The Elegant Extracts” because at one time all their officers “had been chosen from other corps.” The Forty-sixth owed their name of “The Lacedemonians" to their colonel's stirring speech ou the ancient Spartans. Like many other regiments, "The Gallant Fiftieth” re ceived several nicknames-“ The Blind Half Hundred,” frcui_their ophthalmic trembles in Egypt, and "The Dirty Half Hundred” because in their penin sular lights they wiped themselves with their black facings. The One Hun dredth regiment are “The Old Him dred” and “The Centipedes.” The Twenty-eighth were called “The Fore and Afts" because, standing back to back, they repelled a front and rear attack before Alexandria in 1801. The Cheshire regiment has been christened “The Lightning Conductors” because “in the Irish maneuvers of 1S0!> several men were struck by lightning during a night march.”—London News. Tlie Rlns-hnls. The ring-hal does not disdain an in sect diet. Beetles, grasshoppers, lo custs and termites are ail readily de voured. as well as ticks and bots pick ed from the hides of cattle. I have sometimes amused myself by watching the hold yet cautious and gentle ma'ti ner in which one of these ravens will approach a reclining ox and, after a preliminary course of soothing caress es, accompanied by a soft “cawing” note, insert ids head into the ear and dexterously extract the ticks. These birds always seem to have a good un derstaudiug with the older and more experienced oxen, who will, at a hint from one of them, lie down and place themselves in the most favorable posi tion for the extraction of their para sites.—Stark’s Birds of South Africa.
