SUPERsTITIoNs REGARDING FRIDAY.-It is strange
enough that Friday is regarded, in all countries
peculiar day. In England it is generally consid-
cred unlucky, and many people will not commence
any undertaking on that day and most sailors be-
leve that the vessel is to be wrecked that sails
on Friday. If marriage takes place on that day,
the old wives shake their heads and predict all kinds
of misfortunes to bride and bridegroom nay, they
even pity all children who are so unlucky to be
born Friday. In Germany, the contrary:
Friday is considered a lucky day for Weddings COM
mencing new undertakings, or other memorable
events and the of this superstition is said to
be the ancient belief that witches and held
their meetings this day and of course while they
amused themselves with dancing and riding on
broomsticks round the Blocksberg, they could have
no time to work any evil.
