This is a Lucky Year.

Perhaps it never occurred to you that years
with three eights in are lucky years. They
don't come often, only once in a thousand
years, but 1t is lucky person who lives to
see one of them. There is an old Chadean
superstition that a year with three Fights is
one of unlimited blessings. None but lucky
stars are in the ascendancy, fields blossom
with abundant harvest, the cattle are low
ing on a thousand hills, shepherds lead
their tlocks through green pastures and by
still waters, and business enterprises prosper ;
everything you touch turns TO gold want
and famine skulk in their hiding places until
these days of universal prosperity are over.
Pestilence seals his lips and no foul breath
poisons the atmosphere; mirth holds high
carnival and for twenty moons sorrow and
signing shall flee away. Those who have
faith in this ancient superstition will derive
additional comfort from that construction of
the figures in this year. There are three of Il
kind and one spot. 1t is not the best ar
rangement Of the figurative symbolization
that could be made made, yet it is better than
anything that will be done in the next thou
sand years
