GLeisure Hour.1
Death and its Superstitions.

Apart from the resurrection, one of
the most powerful arguments, perhaps,
for the Immortality of the soul is to
be found in the universal superstition
connected with death from the very
earliest period. This can only be ac-
counted for from the fact that there
is implanted within a man a powerful
instinct Of his Immortality, which
forbids him to look upon death as the
final consummation Of his being.
Hence it is that he associates with
death certain dread, not only on ac-
count Of its awful mysteriousness, but
owing to its being the crisis Of an en-
tirely new phase Of the souls exist
ence. However apparently powerful
to some may seem the weapons of
modern infdelity employed in assail-
ing the souls Immortality, these have
never yet been able to explain how it
is that the doctrine of the souls ex-
istence after death has not only been
the subject of belief in all ages, but
amid the lowest savages and most un-
civilized tribes of the world. This
statement, too, is happy beyond con-
tradiction. We have only to consult
the histories, both past and present, of
heather tribes, to learn that it is we'll
authenticated and established fact.
Mr.. Taylor, in his primitive Culture
QS71 ii. 19), says: "Looking at the
religion Of the lower races as a whole,
we shall at least not be ill-advised in
taking as one of it's general and prin-
cipal elements the doctrine of the
souls future life The question,
therefore, naturally arises, When
originated this feeling within man
that death does not rob him of his
life? Although, as in the case OF
some of the rude tribes, he may have
somewhat distorted notions in this
matter, believing occasionally either
in the souls re-birth in another place
or it's transference to animals and
plants. The only satisfactory and, in
deed, intelligent answer to this ques-
ton is that this feeling has been di.
vinely implanted within man. Hence
in spite of all his uncivilization anc
ignorance, man justly refuses to see
in death his destruction, and so ht
invests it with that superstition which
its mystic nature suggests. One very
curious notion which we and in thi!
and foreign countries relates to the
exit of the soul from the body a
death, it being supposed that the de
parture Of life is delayed so long al
any locks or bolts in the house are fas
tened. 1t is, therefore, a common
practice, when person is at the poin
Of death, to open every door in th'
house, so that the soul may not b.
hindered in taking its leave of th
body. A reference to this idea occur
in ''Guy Mannering," where it is SAT-
''the popular belief that the protracte'
struggle between life and death i
painfully prolonged by keeping tn
door Of the apartment shut was re
. ceived as certain by the superstition
eld of Scotland" A correspondent o
'Notes and Queries mentions the fol
$ lowing incident, which is an interest
1 ing instance of this curious supersti
ton. He tells us that he had for

WAITING.

BY WALTER LEARNED.
Each day when my work was ended,
saw, as neared my home,
1 sweet little face at the window-pane,
That was watching for papa to come.
The blue eyes closed one morning,
And knew that never again
Should see my baby watching for me,
With her face at the window-pane.
Yet fancied tonight that heard her
Call, just as she used to do,
When She heard my step at the open gate:
Come, Papa. I'm waiting for YOU"
And think that maybe she is waiting,
AS of old, in the soft twilight,
She watched when the long days task done,
To welcome me home at night.
Some time, when my work is ended,
shall see, as 1 near my home,
A dear little face in Paradise,
That is watching for papa to come.
