Legends Of the Apple.

The apple, which, as well as we know, is
the first fruit mentioned in the Bible, has been
the occasion of various legends and supersti-
tions In Arabia it is believed to charm away
disease, and produce health and prosperity.
In some countries the custom remains of
placing rosy apple in the hand of the dead
that they may find it when they enter Para
disc. The Greeks use it as a symbol of wealth
and large possessions, thus attesting their es-
TEEN for the fullness and richness of its quail
tiles. In northern mythology the apple is
said to produce rejuyenat.ng power Ger
many, France and Switzerland have numcr-
GUS legends concerning this fruit. In some
it is celebrated as the barbinger of good for
tune, causing ones most earnest desires to be
fulfilled; in others its beautiful properties are
shown forth as bringing death and destruc-
ton; others again speak of it as an oracle in
love affairs; this is especially the case with
the Germans, not only in their numerous
tales, but in some surviving customs In En-
gland, as we'll as in our own country, is known
among school girls the popular use of the ap-
pie seeds in divining ones sweetheart. The
peeljng is also used rs test in this delicate
matter.
