WILDLIFE
(Continueed from page 5)
The one spider in South Carolina
which seems truly dangerous is the
one known as Black Widow spider.—
it is very common throughout all this
part of the country, and certainly it
is rarely that it hurts a person, yet
there are cases on record of severe
pains fom its bite.
Certain speo : es known as Balloon
ing spiders will climb to top of a
tall weed or fence-post and spin a,
long thread out into the air, when
it has drifted far enough out into the
breeze to develop sufficient “pull”
the spider will let go of its foothold
and ride away on the buoyant web
perhaps for a mile or farter before it
gets an accidental foothold at some
new place.
It is probable that there are from
300 to 400 or more distinct species of
spiders in South Carolina; as yet no
one in this state has undertaken thor
ough collection and study of them.

Why Advertise Coal
When Coal is Scarce?
That’s a fair question and we shall try to answer it*
As everyone knows help of all kind is hard to get
and our company is no exception to this fact.
Not only is labor to move coal scarce but merns of
transporting it to your home is definitely not what it
used to be. Trucks break down and have to be re
paired under war-time conditions.
By placing your order for coal before cold weather
sets in you give us some margin to overcome the
many handicaps we have to operate under:
Yes, coal IS scarce and it will become more so, but
at the present time we have ample to supply you IF
you will cooperate with us and let us have your order
while the weather is good.
Let us have your order today so that you may have
the satisfaction of knowing that we will take care of
your actual needs in plenty of time for winter.
