{"product_id":"spider-von-cecil-warburton","title":"SPIDER","description":"\u003cp\u003eTHERE are certain days of the year when the immense wealth of spider industry going \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eon all around us is revealed in a way calculated to strike even the least observant. We all \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eknow¿and derive no peculiarly pleasant thrill from the knowledge¿that we can, if so \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eminded, find abundance of cobwebs and their occupants by visiting the cellar or the \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003etool-house; and probably we have all at times noticed, with a languid interest, large \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ecircular webs on our favourite rose-bushes, with a spider motionless in the centre. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut some spring or autumn morning, when the night has been foggy and the sun has \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eonly just succeeded in dispersing the mists, every bush and hedge is seen to be draped, \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eevery square foot of lawn and meadow to be carpeted with spiders¿ silk. There has been \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eno special activity in the domain of these creatures, but every silken line is beaded with \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003edrops perhaps fifty times its diameter, and what yesterday required careful observation \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eto detect is now visible yards away, and we realise for once something of the prodigious \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eactivity constantly going on though ordinarily unnoted. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd it never entirely ceases. True hibernation, if it ever occurs, is not the rule among \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003espiders, and there is no time of the year when some species may not be found at work. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeat trees or bushes over an old umbrella, or sweep grass and herbage with a sweeping \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003enet in summer, and you will never draw a blank¿some spiders are sure to be found. In \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ewinter such measures are profitless, but if you take the trouble to grub among ground \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003evegetation, or shake fallen leaves over a newspaper, or search under stones or logs of \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ewood you will have no difficulty in finding spiders enough, and by no means dormant.
