E. B. P. Shurley, the jeweler, at No. 82 State street, Chicago, has the unique distinction of being the exhibitor of a female tarantula, and about a hundred juveniles.

The mother ia an unsightly and Vicious-looking spider, with a body an Inch long- and leg's twice that length. Mr. Shurley keeps his pet in a bottle in the show widow, so that pedestrians unacquainted with the tarantula can gaxc upon its beauties.

The name of the South Water street firm that imported it is not Icnoivn, but it is probably offering fruit peddlers special inducements by furnishing: a tarantula with each bunch of bananas. Several doctors who have looked at the specimen say that it is the finest in the United States.

The male tarantula is much larger than tbe female, but its sting is no more deadly. There is a belief among' the natives of some of tlie countries where the tarantula thrives to the effect that tbe sting of the vicious creature puts a a sleep and thiit only musi'v restore the victim. Mr. James, who has read up on the matter, says he does not know how true this is, but.hebeJievestha.tthe sweetest strains of Orpheus' fiddle could not wake a man from a tarantula sleep.

James g-ot his rare insect it was accompanied by a small sac orco- coon. The other day about one hundred young- tara-ntulas crawled out of this cocoon, and there is now nothing to prevent Mr. James from going into the tarantula business. Many people stop in front of the store on State street and gaze curiously nt the 'tarantula colony.
