Spider's Ingenious Web
Woven Afresh Each Night
Master of geometrical precision and
skillful artisan, the festidioras orange -

Tier arrival at a certain 'i(Jcrntleal mo-
.bleet every evening when with amaz-
ing ingenuity she constructs or weaves
"aa. new web over the framework of
her permanent dwelling states an ar-
ticle in Better Homes and Gardens,
Although the framework of the site-
ple structure, which consists of three
spokes radiating from a single point,
is constantly under repair, the finished.
web is never repaired no spatter how
damaged it may nay be, Guy wires are
anchored to leaves, Mears of grass,
with a crow's foot fastening, Then
follow the radial' lines which retrace
the original spokes of the permanent
frame. The dainty tatting wheel In
the center serves as a feast ball. The
last stroke Is billing out the floss eon-
stituting the hub, which leaves an
aperture for the unwary insect to
crawl through and be enmeshed. Then
follows the fastidiously chosen feast,
continues Better Homes and Gardena,
after which' the web is carefully re-
moved and, if no longer of service, de-
voured to make more silk and be
respun later.
Population of Babylon
Has Been Over•estirisated
There have been 1'tt ious attempts,
by comparing its area e 7th the area
of modern cities, to estimate the popu
lation of ancient Batiste). On the low-
est calculation it would be found, sup-
posing it to have borne any consider-
able resemblance to 0 European city,
to have had a population of 5,000,000,
The map of Asiatic Turkey shows
that the extent of country around
liabyloh available for agricultural pur-
poses must have been quite inade-
quete to supply the necessary demands
for anything like such an immense
population. Perhaps, on the whole,
says a recent writer, one nirty esti-
mate the population at from 1,000,000
to 1,200,000. This supposition derives
support frow the fact that Selucia,
with a pnpulgttion of 000,000, is stated
by Strabo and Pliny to have beeu
about half the size .Of Babylon in the
days of her greatest glory, -
.Satisfied With Their Let
The minister of the 'situ k had been
invited to dine with the Jones fancily,
end the four young boys had been told
.0 wait for their repast until the
grownups had finished the meal.' They
were to come in for the "second sere-
ng s -
One of the lads, however, secreted'
ihoself under the table to listen in.
Coiunenting on the four boys, the
minister said to the hostess: "Mrs.
Innes, it is too bad that at least one
f your children couldn't have been
.t girl."
This was too much `for the little
stowaway. Out shot a bristling; little
-ed head from under the overhanging
tablecloth, and a volley of protesting
words
"Well, Tom wouldn't been 'er; Ed
wonicln't been 'erg Tial wouldn't been
'er; and I wouldn't been 'er l I'd like
to know who'd 'a' been 'er 1"
No other answer was needed; the
point Was settled.
Originated Postal System
Hailed by many as the father of the
modern postal system, the one hun-
'redth anniversary of Heinrich von
wtephan was modestly celebrated in
Germany. He came from very hum -
Ole origin and rose to be director of
the Royal Prussian post. The work
for which he is particularly retnem-
'*red was engineering the world pos-
tal union, which became effective on
ttly 1, 1875, after the Berne confer-
ence had sat only a week and a half
'+efore accepting his scheme without
i'hange.
Germans perhaps treasure Von Ste.
Y'au's memory particularly as the
riginator of the cheap -rate postcard.
[deed, his name is closely associated
kh all the postal innovations of his
ime.
Weight and.Health
Recent insurance experience has
town that average weight tables are
• ften misleading. The:average weights
re by no means the !?est weights. At
rges under thirty, the best conditions
pparently exist among those whose
weights ere front five to ten pounds
hove the average. .After age thir-
v, the most favorable conditions
:ire found among those whose
eights are below the average. The
amount below average increases with
advancing; age, and at the age of
illy, persons seem to sae at their
'est when their Weights are as mush
s'20 or 80 pounds below the average.
"surance experienr'e shows that un-
'erweight is definitely an advantage
o far as long fife Is concerned.
Hard to Trace Origin
Dr.Frank S. Vieetelly its his book
in "Idioms and Idiomatic Phrases"
rtes "Let her go, dlalingher1" is an
tmer leanism of unknown origin,
rneed by various persons to different
rntrces. tie quotes, however, 0, E.
infagher of Youngstown, Ohio, who
ote In 1021: "Let her go, Gallagher 1"
vas first seen by the writer (Mr, Gal
rgher) on posters advertising a dance
:t Salamanca, N. Y., about 35 years
ro. . My. fresher was postmaster at
lint^trlace. and working in the post
since were, a number of vers poptilar '
ming ladies who were always aetive
a the socfai Aft'airs of the tows. These
,rosters referred to the girls who

The golf course is ideally situated
in 'tl ( Alps district and will be one
of ths firs: t in the province. Ar-
rangen1nts have been made to have
four of Ontario's leading Amateurs
compete in a foursome for the open-
ing early in May which will be fol-
lowed by a dinner and dance for the
Club members.
Visitors will be gladly shown over
the course from now on and any
prospective members if they wilt get
in touch with Mr. 14lcAvoy, Druggist,
full details regarding the membership
will be explained to there. 13y tak-
ing the road past the cemetery the
course is only six miles distant from
Wingham,
Eastern Canada will have an in-
crease of from 20 to 30 per cent, in
its apple crop over last year, while
a decrease of 22 per cent. is indicated
for British Columbia. The total crop
this year is expected to amount to
8,600,000 barrels, as compared with
3,400,000 barrels last year, and 3,-
200,00 barrels for the five-year aver-
age. Present indications are that ap-
ples will run average or better in size
and weather conditions have been
such that color should be good.
Following the policy of cultivating
new markets abroad, a trial shipment
of 2,000 boxes of fancy peaches from
the ]3eamsville district left recently
for London, England, where they
will be marketed through the Gov-
ernment Trade Commissioner. Every
precaution was taken to ensure that
London
1 arrive on the
they would a v
Y
market in the very finest condition.
Growers of the Grimsby district are
also sending a trial shipment of Can-
adian peaches into the Caribbean
market.
Lovely Skin
Vegetable Pills Did What
Creams Couldn't
"I find (writes Miss E. T. Clapham)
that Carter's Little Liver Pills will do
more to keep the complexion clear and
the skin free from blemishes than all
the face creams 1 have used."
Dr. Carter's Tattle Liver Pills are no
i
ora' nary laxative. They are ALL
VEGETABLE and have a definite,
valuable tonic action upon the liver.

man, euf Bayfield, was dissolved by

Resigns as Traffic Cop '
Major General Victor Williams, 'C.
I41.G., Commissioner of Provincial
Police, Toronto, announces that Con-
stable M. R Hodgson, who some
time ago was kidnapped by bandits
at Walkerton and' forced to drive
them' for miles, has been permitted
to resign from the force. Hodgson,
however, has been given a position as
chauffeur in the Provincial Depart -
merit, and is attached to headquarters
in Toronto.—Walkerton Herald and
Times.
Road Signs Being Changed
Traffic Officer Lever has charge of
improving the traffic signs through-
out the county. The old checker-
board signs at blind corners are be-
ing 'removed and a large board sign,
painted white with :a black arrow
pointing the way the, road goes, will.
be 'installed in their place, It is
thought that this will be much better
than, simply calling .attention to the
feet that something shottid .be looked
for at these corners. Mr: Lever says
when completed Huron will have the
best road signs in the province. ---

FOXTQN—In loving memory of our
dear mother, (Mary Jane Walker),,
who passed away September 30th,

One beautiful evening at the close of
day
A voice was calling that seemed to.
say,
"Ye who are weary conte and rest,
Lay down your head. upon My breast,
Thy days are spent and thy strength
is gone,
And the crown of life hast been won;
Come follow Me and I will guide
Thy footsteps 'over to Jordan's side.”
Sadly missed by The Family.
