LUCKY NUMBERS.

Among the many curious superstltlons which
have retained their hold upon the minds of
men, that of the mystical properties ofnumbers
is as implicitly credited by some people of the
present day as it was when Cheops was building
the great Pyramid more than thousand years
before the Christian era began. A recent
writer in Chambers Journal says:
"Card. players have number of crotchets
of this kind-'luck under the Deuce bad luck
under the nine of diamonds, an even number
for the trump card. One theory says that
even numbers are unlucky, because each can
be divided into two, thereby denoting death
and dissolution. One nation made the year
consist of 359 days, in order that it should not
divide into twelve equal months Some of the
early Christians pronounced for odd numbers,
because God is and 8, and because He made
holy the seventh day. The number Z and its
multiples were on other grounds made lucky;
because human being sheds his teeth at Z,
becomes youth at twice Z, a man at thrice
7, and reaches his grand climacteric at nine
times 7. nsome part of England, the house
wives put their hens on an odd number of
eggs; because with an even number, they
fear there would be no chicks. The current
year of our Lord is always lucky number
in the estimation of some persons. Addison
said, in the Spectator: ri have been told OF
certain Jealous dissenter, who, being great
enemy to Popery, and believing that bad men
are the most fortunate in the world, will lay
two to one on the number 666 against any
other number; BECAUSE says he, it is the num-
Der of the beast" This mystical number has
played a great part in luck speculations.
Some Apocalyptic interpreters will have it
that 666 is the Pope himself; while, on the
other hand, Roman Catholic journalist has
recently strivea to show that if Bismarck
were spelled Bstmark, it would be exactly
equivalent to 666. Number three is greatly
in favor for luck =; school.boys insist thaHthe
third time will be fair, or will result in sue
cess. There is an old superstition or maxim,
call it which we may, that three handfuls of
sand on dead body are as good as a funeral.
The Romans had notions about the breadth
of camp fosse measuring an odd number of
feet; the holding of markets at intervals of
an odd number of days; the taking of the
census at intervals Of an odd number Of years;
the dinner at triclinium or three-sided table,
the Graces being three, the Furies three, and
the Muses. seven. Greek cities had an odd
number of gates The French peasantry have
knack of making out lucky and unlucky
years for great personages by adding togeth.
er the years of our Lord, the digits which
compose that number, the age of the individ-
ual, and the number of years between his
birth, marriage, or some other notable event
in his life-an elastic sort of process, which
can be made to prove almost anything we
wish"

CONCLUSION NEXT WEEK. |

How LONG IT TAKES TO STARvE Tc
DEATH.-Bradley Grant, rich farmer who
lived near Binghampton, New York, commit
ted suicide by starving himself to death. The
time required was just six weeks. During all
this interval he had not taken three ounces Of
any kind of food. On the first day of bis
long death fast, he ate part of an egg beaten
up with little milk. Of this he only supped
two tablespoonfuls. His next meal was taken
fifteen days afterward, and consisted of but
half cup of tea and piece of toast about
the size of mans three fingers. Then he
went without food for twenty days. His last
meal consisted of one ounce of toast, which
he was induced to swallow. A few days be-
fore he died two tablespoonfuls of brandy and
water were forced down his throat This
sums up all the food that passed into his
stomach during the six weeks. He was we'll
off in this worlds goods, and no cause is as
signed for the act He left a wife and an in
FAINT child. He was reduced to perfect skel-
eton before succumbing to his terrible self
imposed privation.

Mr. SEwARD's CooLNEss.-Mr. Seward
won many moral victories in the Senate by
his perfect coolness. Nothing could rouse his
anger or make him forget the courtesy due to
his colleagues, or the proprieties of the Senate
Chamber. A Washington paper says:
Not long ago, gentleman was telling me
Senatorial anecdote of Mr.. Seward, dating
back to antebellum days. Mr.. Seward had
made speech-something about the tele-
graph-when Mr.. Toombs, of Georgia, rose
to reply, and made speech full of personal
abuse of Mr. Seward. He wrought himself
up into rage, and lashed about in the most
aggressive manner. He finished and took his
seat.
AS Mr.. Seward rose from his chair, every
eye was bent upon him with the greatest anx-
iety. With calm, measured step he walked
toward Toombs. Itwas noticed that his right
hand was underneath the rear pocket Of his
coat There was apprehension that he was
concealing pistol, and Mr.. Toombs' friends
crowded around him.
When Mr.. Seward reached him, he drew
out his hand, and opening bis snuff box, po-
litely invited his adversary to take pinch of
snuff:
my God |" said Mr.. Toombs; "Mr. Sew.
ard, have you no feelings?"
"rake a pinch Of snuff, it will soothe your
agitation"
He then returned to his seat, and without
any allusion to Mr.. Toombs or his speech,
made an able argument in favor of his meas.
ure, which he carried, as GOODNESS and self.
possession will always win the victory over
hot temper and passionate invective

NIGHT WORK.

A good medical authority declares that the
mischiefs Of night work, where evil effects
follow, arise more from the insuficiency and
uncertainty of the light used, than from any
other cause. The light should be white,
strong and steady, and carefully concentrated
by shades upon the book, paper, or other OBJ
ject of employment, very different kind of
light from the dull and cloudy yellow just
now furnished by some Of the gas companies.
insufficient, Pickering, or too diffused light is
one of the most serious causes of brain irrita-
tion which affects some of the people COM
PEELED to work at night. The body should be
we'll supplied with nutriment, for it is fact
not sufficiently recognized that mental occu-
patton and night work of any kind make ex-
ceptionally heavy draughts on the physical
strength. To the young, night work-that is,
occupation to late hour-is more injurious
than to the old; and both old and young,
whenever they can, should prefer daylight.
But as in the thousand demands of necessity
as we'll as of civilization, there must be those
who arc compelled to turn night into day,
due regard to the support of nature must be
observed. From six to eight hours of con-
tiuuous sleep in every twenty-four hours is ne.
cessary to every person. He who works till
four should, therefore, be in bed till ten, and
even then should have an hours nap later in
the day before he begins his night work again.
Many cases Of sleeplessness are due not to
overwork but to the overuse Of tobacco and
the abuse of stimulants. He who cannot
compose himself without potation has over
worked himself; and to fall into the habit Of
either excepting up" or Of getting attuned for
sleep by application to the glass is dangerous.
Better not work at night at all than to do it
under such circumstances. The day is the
natural time for labor; and he is fortunate
whose occupation permits this natural arrange
ment as the rule Of his life. Yet, as already
observed, the conditions of society impose
night-work upon many people. And there
are many more who are occasionally COM
PEELED to oresortto it. Man is facile animal;
and by the right use of his reason can adapt
himself to circumstances. But reason must
be consulted and obeyed. There is no "Socie-
ty" for the prevention of cruelty self'imposed
upon the human animal. He must take care
of biz own case, as but few others are likely
to do it for him, or could if they would.

CHAPTER XIV.
THE HAUNTED ROOM.

The troubled day came to close, and
night spread its sheltering mantle once more
over the house at Mossgrove and its quiet and
sombre environs.
The moon arose in its glory, shedding its
silver light over the dusky trees, the winding
river, the sloping lawn and the peaceful stars
looked down with their pure eyes on the ILL.,
fated mansion, where the troubled household
had retired to repose.
Repose! the word seemed a mockery to
more than one heart there. The good, the
