. American spiders and their spinning work. A natural history of the orbweaving spiders of the United States, with special regard to their industry and habits. Spiders. Fig. 250. Latrodcctus mactans, adult female. Twice natural size.' his legs, causing the veins to swell very much. We applied turnip poul- tice to the wound, and when this was taken off a quantity of black fluid came from the sore. During the afternoon the pain in the legs and big toes still continued. Dr. Mohnbeer prescribed a liniment, which, after rubbing well into the legs, caused a black, inky colored fluid to emit itself through the pores of the skin in large drops, from which time my son began to improve, and has continued im- proving ever since, but suffers much from weak- ness. From the time he was bitten on Mon- day till the Friday following he lost exactly twelve pounds in flesh. I forgot to state that when he was first bitten I gave him small doses of brandy, at intervals during the first two days, which seemed to have the effect of greatly relieving the pain.

If they cannot find the insect, they set fire to the house and burn buildings, effects, and everything else. In this case the spider was found, and Dr. Mohnbeer has it pre- Native served in spirits in his surgery. I write this to caution persons to look well to their bedclothes before retiring to rest, as I have witnessed persons suffering from the bite of snakes and other reptiles in Australia, but never saw any one in such agony as my son during the time the poison was taking effect." Notwithstanding this very clear and appar- ently trustworthy account and the examples which follow, M. Lu
