MEADVILLE COMMERCIAL COLLEGE, MEADVILLE, PA. THE SCHOOL THAT GETS RESULTS. A FUlilng Spider. A peculiar spider thnt Is found In parts of South America, principally In the vicinity of Buenos Ayres, catches fish at certain seasons of the year. In a shallow part of the stream It weaves between the stones a double sided or funnel shaped net. Into which, running upon the water, It drives little tad poles, well known fishlike larvae of tho frog. The shriveled busks or skins of these creatures, which lie strewn In great numbers about the spider's nest, show plainly that It thoroughly under stands its business. A Painful Dilemma. Senior Partner What are you look ing so glum over? Junior Partner Got n note from ray wife that the pug is lost Now, If I don't sympathize for her a whole lot she will say I am a cold blooded brute, and If I do sympathize she will suspect that I hired some one to steal the dog and am just condoling with her for a bluff. rom.eat.lon.

The ladles of Lamu surpass those of all other nations In retiring modesty, for thoy not only hide their faces, but walk about under a small tent, which requires the assistance of a servant to carry It. It Is not surprising to hear that they have a very bad reputation for propriety, for In Africa female re spectability is In inverse ration to the quality of clothes worn. Eliot's "East Afrlcu."
