my own I still felt so much In the dark

Far up In the mountains of Ceylon
there Is a spider that spins a web llle
bright yellowish silk the central net
of which Is the feet In diameter while
the Hiippuitiug lines or guys as they
aie called measure sometimes 10 or 1
feet nud riding quickly In the early
mot nlng jou may dash tight Into It
the stout threads twining loiind your
face like a lace veil while as the
creatine who has woen II lakes up his
position In tho middle he geneially
catches jou llht In the nose and
though he seldom bites or stings the
contact of his largo body and long legs
Is anything but pleasant If you fotget
yourself and try to catch lilm bite lie
will and though not venomous his
jaws are as powerful as a bhds beak
and you ate not likely to forget the en
counter
Tho bodies of these spiders aio cry
handsomely decotated being blight

upper pint Is eoeied with the most
delicate slate coloted fur So strong ate

has often sat and watched the yel
low monster niensui lug when waiting
for his pioy with his legs stretched
out fully six inches stiidlng across
the middle of the net and noted the
lapld manner in which be winds his
stout tin ends round the unfoi innate
captive
He usually thiows tho colls about
