The Relief I.uck.

The belief in luck results from q per-
sistent effort to explain what is to
the majority inexplicable, and we
may suspect that as the inexphcable
is usually attributed to an unseen
chain of causes, a good many sense
less efforts to change the luck-as,
for instance, turning the chair at
whist, or changing ones house-are
Efforts, conscious or unconscious, to
break the chain ofcausality, to defect
the stream, as it were, and make it
pass by US. But this explanation
does not in the least meet the strange
feeling which attaches luck or i'll luck
to Inanlmate things, q feeling which,
avOwed throughout the East, and
nearly universal with the vulgar of
the West, fingers even among the
cultivated to an astonishing degree.
We have met men and women en-
tlrely free from it, or at least so free
that neither they nor we could detect
it; but we suspect the majority of
our readers will admit that they are
aware of its existence in their own
ninds-that is, that they possess OF.
know of things to which in spite of
reason, they attach lucky or unlucky
influence.
The extent of the feeling varies
with temperament, but few are Who'll
ly free from it, and with some it is an
abiding conviction, leading, in the
case of the loss of the thing thus val
ued, to acute mental suffering. 1t is
not all association which induces.
to =
ding RING, or brave officers to put on
a particular sword when going on q
specially dangerous expedition 1T is
not an ineXplicable but continuous
experience. for there has been no eX-
perience. That solution would eX-
plain the belief of NOttinghamshire
that particular house always kills
the first born Of its OWner-whOlly iT-
respective OF descent-While the OWL
Ell is still alive.
That idea, so strong as to affect
the value Ofthe property, is no doubt
the result OF a long series of singular
condolences, the breaks in which,
not being remarkable, have
not been remarked; but
in most cases there is no jUstifying
experience. The vase, or cup, or
Jewel, or house to which q family at
taches honor as in some way connect
ed with the "luck" Of their race, has
never been broken, or lost, or sold;
and they themselves, as they show
their treasure, reject with their intel
lects a belief nevertheless so opera
tive that no price would purchase its
object from their possession. The
man who has kept a lucky coin for
years has never had any luck from it;
it is the miserable often who feel this
charm of the inanimate, and 90 on
for years preserving the article, what
ever it may be, as a kind of amulet
which is to bring the happiness never
yet possessed. Indeed, men have
been known to buy things under a
fancy that they would be lucky to
them, which is to express the belief in
it's fullest and most unreasonable
