It is unlucky to lay away anything that you wear frequently. It is very unlucky to wear a stuffed bird or part of a bird on your hat. It signifies misfortune for a man or boy to wear a cap while sitting in the house. Kiss the hem of your dress if it is turned up and pull it down for luck. Laying a hat on a bed will bring bad luck to the person who sleeps in that bed.
Long skirts are the sign of bad times.
Never let an inside-out dress fall over your face or this will cause you bad luck. Never pick up a handkerchief that you let fall, or you will have bad luck. Not to wear something new on Easter will cause you bad luck all year. Old friends should exchange dresses for luck. I am finished with you.
