What a pity it is that we sci-A (loin know all the results oi the ilnngzs ue do. We think We arel (lozmz things for ourselves. and: niany times we are doing some- thing ior others, yet do not know ii. Somc times it is something good. and some times it is something had.

Madam Orb is a Spider. She is a spinner or nets. and they arei vrljv lovely nets. Thai is, they are. lovely to see. But thry are not at; all lovely to be caught in as files: and other insects, who are care-l lms and do not always see where. they are iznlnz, find out to ihrlr sorrow. A

She was over a- monc the bushes at the edge of the OH Pasture. How she got there, I don't know. Probably she didn't

know either. Presently, she came to Johnny Chuck's doorstep. There was a big mound or shining yellow sand right in from, or his doorway. It was the sand that he had dug and pushed out by digging his house.

Johnny had a iairly large door- way. when Madam Orb come to this, she paused and looked it all over. What a place that would be to spread a silken net right across that doorway. She climbed all a- round the edge or the doorway. and then she set to work. Who taught Madam Orb to spin those wonder- iul nets oi hers? No one. She was born knowing now. Once she starts work, she kesps right at it until the Job is done. The Great World would be a much better place ii every our followed her example and completed without stopping the work they undertake.

When she had finished, i-here spread right across Johnny's Chuck's doorway was a shining sil- ken not. strong silken threads that giistened in the sunlight as it they were spun from siivar held the net, stretched in place. Then Madam Orb carried a silk line to a snug retreated and (here she set-

He came around to his doorstep and looked at that web.

tied herself 't '1 keeping one o! her feet on that line. She didn't have to watch to see if any- thing was being caught in that net. she would know the very in- stant thei not was touched. Even the smallwt insect caught in it would shake the net at least a tiny bit, and that shaking would travel right along that line one was holding, and she would know that some one was caught. so she didn't have to watch; she could even have dozed had she wanted

to.

Now. to Madam Orb that door- way had been merely a hole in the ground. She hadn't known that it was a doorway. Not that it would have made any difference had she known. To her it was simply Just the best kind or A place to spread I net.

0! course. that net wasn't strong enough to stop Johnny Ohuck. He could have walked right through itt without. knowing ii! was there, except that it probably would have tickled his race and he would have wanted be have gotten rid of it. Johnny was down inside his house when Madam Orb spun that net there. Later he started to go up, and there, shining in the sun. was the silver web of that net.

Johnny saw it. He cropped. He didn't try to break through. He chuckled softly. Then he turned and went back down below and finally went out of one or his back doors. He came around to his door- way and looked at that web. He chuckled.

"Madam Orb has done me a good turn, but I guess she doesn't know it." thought he. ”Any one coming along here and seeing that not a- cross my doorway will think no one is living here. 01' course if I want to use that doorway in a hurry, I can. but I have always got back doors that I can use. so. I'm glad Madam Orb put that net there. I certainly am."

While 'Johmiy sat there on his doorstep admiring that lovely sil- ver net. is small Bee got caught in the net. Instantly. Madam Orb came out from her hiding place and bound that little Bee with

silken threads. She carried it up to her hiding place. Johnny Chuck shook his head. "She did me a good turn. but it was a bad one for that little Bee." thought John- ny. Then he went to get some sweet clover for his dinner.

North-South did well to reach the six-spade contract against East preemptive opening - but, on second thought, perhaps, it wasn't such a good idea to reach the slum. considering South's play!

West, void oi his partner's suit, opened the diamond king. South ruffed and studied the dummy tor some time, but. unfortunately, to no avail. Realizing that West would ruff the iirst club lead, South de- cided to draw trumps and run on his heart winners, then lead some more trumps for good measure - ali in the hope that East would re- linquish enough clubs to let South set up a long card in the suit. East. however. was not so obliging; the situation was quite clear to him, and he held on to tour clubs for grim death. The nsequen was that South lost two club tricks.

Now observer how very simple it should have been lor declarer to collect twelve tricks. After rumng the diamond, he should lead a trump to the board and rut! a sec- ond diamond, then lead another trump and run! a. third diarmnd. Now he could return to dummy in hearts. rui'i' the last diamond, re- turn again in hearts and cash dum- my's last spade, thereby drawing West's last trump. South himself would, 0! course. discard a low club on this trick, and he could then claim the contract with his own remaining heart honor and his ace-king of clubs.

0! course, if West had happened to lead a trump- or 9. heart well, that would have been a" different matter.
