How did Twain explain the spider in the paper? What did he want to highlight?

Answer»

1. Twain explained that the spider was on the paper to see which merchant was not advertising, so that he could go to that store spin his web across the door and lead a life of undisturbed peace afterwards. 

2. He wanted to highlight that there was no logical reason behind superstitions as the spider just happened to be there on the newspaper by chance.

He also wanted to highlight that we should not believe in superstitions.
