POPULAR EUROPEAN sUPERsrITUTIOy.

Swabian people believe that on Easter
Day, or, as some say, on Ascension Day,
the rising sun leaps thrice Tor joy. Al
ROteubu &, on tue Neckar, the sun is
supposed 10 perform these antics on
Christmas Eve, the period of the winter
solstice. On Good Friday the sun
mourns over the crucitiXion, aud does
not shine until three o'cIock in the alter
noon. In some parts OF Upper SwaDia
public prayer are still offered Up alter
an eclipse. The appearance OF three
suns deuo.es war; they are only visible
at sunrise and differ in siz4. Tue larges
gains the day, practically and meiapHur
ically. AT Herbrecntiugen these suns
nave frequently been seen, and such
was the cas- t just before Napoleou's Rus
sian campaign.
The largest sun was in the northern
direction, and that is why the Russians
won. Tie sun IS obliged to SHINE tor a
short time, at least, every SUNDAY, in
order that the Blessed Virgin may dry
her vail. Three Saturdays in the year,
on which she mOurns, The sun does NOS
shine at all. The stars also played no
small part in the heathen mythology
According to popular belief they are "a

describes the stars as fiery sparks,
which tloated about in the air until the i

gods.
Falling stars are weighty omens, and
whoever behods one ou hit to repeat a
prayer. In Tyrol and elsewhere it is
believed that any wish, expressed while
star falls, Will be fulfilled; a treasure
lies where it falls. The Lithuanian
myth connects falling siars with the
