SAILBOAT SPIDERS
The Queer Discovery That “'u Made by
I Careful "burn".
It was reservml ,for Dr. MeCIIok to Ills-
l'llVl‘l" a mode of locomotion used by some
spiders, but previously unknown to natu-
ralists. When studying the habits of cer-
tain water spiders. he shook the branches
of a tree that stIIod by the water's edge In
order to procure Fpt‘l'lmfillll. A number of
spiders fell, and all traveled back to shore
in ways familiar to the doctor, with the
exception of one spider, \IhIIh seemed to
mow. across the surface of the water \\ ith
out any motion of its legs
“llt'll It approached the shore, the doc
tor placed It for out on the pond again
and watched It more closely. III a few
moments It resumed Its peculiar method of
traveling and he saw positively Ihnt it did
not use Its legs. How, then, did It eross‘
the water? The gentle breeze blowing
against its body could hardly have driven
It at the rate it was going, for that It. was
moving along at a fairly good pace was
erIdenI-le by the little ripplets which
strcauu-Ii out on either side of the circle of
rigid logs.
It occurred to the doctor that perhaps
thisllttlc mariner was sailing under an
Invisible sail. In other words. that per
haps the spider had let out n number of
silken thrcadII as tho aerouaut spiders do.
and that. Instead of carrying it through
the air. they caused It tosklm rapidly over
the surface of the water.
As the curious llttII-cbap approached the
laudagnln, the doctor hold IIIs I'nnoout
about two feet above the hpldcr. III a Ino-
ment It came to u lmlt. The mystery was
BOlle. As ho had suspcetml, the tiny
craft was really sulllug under invisible
soils, and as they came Into contact with
the doctor's vane they adhered to It so
firmly that by a sudden Inowuu‘nt of the
stick the spider was lifted clear out of the
water.
It In just possible that :I gossamer
thread runs from the lip of each leg to the
one next It, thereby forming a IIIIIIInuIIvII
silken final for the spider to stand upon.
