Fort Worth daily gazette. (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1882-1891, 1888-12-26

at this little island IN the Pacific ocean,
whence, in due course, it will travel
round to us. But to have thus the start
of the world is not an unmitigated adj
vantage to these islanders.
Suppose one Of them sails east to Amer
lea, what is the result? He will find that
they keep the day there under different
date, and he will have to reckon one day
in his calendar twice over to put himself
right with their notions. On the other
hand, if an American crosses from east
to west this wonderful magic line where
the day begins, ne will find the dates in
this fresh part of the world are one in
advance of him, and he must needs
strike day out of his calendar to keep
up with the times.
This fact was curiously illustrated in
the case of Magellan, the Portuguese cap
tain, who sailed around the world from
east to west in 1922, and having crossed
the magic line of days BIRTH in his
wanders, his calendar became, of course,
Il day in arrear. The sailors were COM
pletely ignorant of this, and finding on
landing at home that their Sabbath was
falling on Monday they accused one
another of tampering with the reckoning.
1t was not for some time that the true
and simple explanation of the wonderful
loss of time was discovered.

HOUSEHOLD SUPERSTITIONS.
St. louis Globe-Democrat.

If the broom falls across the doorway a
stranger is announced.
The hearth has from antiquity been the
most sacred corner of the house.
Hindoos and Mohammedans cannot die
in bed, and the dying Brahmins must be
carried to the banks of the sacred
Ganges.
The ancients dropped q loOking-glass
into the water, and OWNED the fate of u
sick person by the reflection of his con-
tenance.
The bridal ped must, in many parts of
Germany, be made out of the wood of
living trees, dead wood being ominous of
evil influences.
Sometimes door will silently open of
itself without any visible cause. The
Vosgiens consider this an omen of death
to someone in the house.
The Devonshre maiden still stands be-
fore the mirror, with a candle in her
hand, eating an apple, and beholds
therein the face of her future spouse.
1t is held in Devonshire to be disastrous
to anyone sleeping on q featherbed that
has been "turned' on Sunday, and
housewives carefully avoid doing so.
As to the deathbed, there is a supersti-
ton. III Yorkshire that no one can die
comfortably i'll bed, and dying persons
have been dragged out and laid on the
floor to insure them an easy death.
In modern Greece, the mamma or bal-
ing oven, is invested with all the ancient
sacredness of the hearth fire. 1t is
sacrilege to throw salt or other injurious
matter into it, and even to mock or de-
ride it..
In Northamptonshire the straw IS taken
from the bed after death and burned. If
4 footstep is seen i'll the ashes the next
morning, as is frequently the case, the
person whose foot fits it will die next.
In Scotland, where Old customs lin
gered until a late date, the fire was eX-
tinguished on May day, Easter, or st.
John 5 day, and relighted by Il brand
from the fires kindled on those days, as
Il survival of ancient worship Of the sun.

The Lemon Lily.
Vick'S Magazine.

A great favorite with our grandmothers
was the lemon lily, with its starry, odor-
Gus flowers. Then it seemed to lose pres
but it is now restored to favor and offered
to the public under its botanical name,
hemerocallis, or as the golden lily, and is
a most desirable perennial. 1t is really
one of the Ioveliest of the early summer
flowers; graceful in shape, of exquisite
color and rich odor, it beauties the lawn
with its golden blooms, and is especially
adapted TO situation where a mass of
color is desired. The clump of lance-lke
leaves, so wildly green, are ornamental
even when the blOssoming time is past.

Women have more chances of life in their
favor previous to fifty years of age than
men have, but fewer afterward. The
number of marriages is in the pro-
portion of seventy-five to every 1000 iudi-
viduals Marriages are more frequent
after equinox, that is, during the months
of June and December. Those born i'll
the spring are generally of more robust
constitution than others. Births are more
frequent by night than by day, also
deaths. The number of men capable of
bearing arms is calculated al one-fourth
of the population.

A very cufRes n1hbeTFSsfsse 149 ,S57,
which multiplied bT'I 2, 8, 4, ., or 6 =,
gives the same figures in the same order,
beginning at different point; but if
multiplied by gives all mines. Multi
piled by it equals to l42 1851, multiplied
by equals 2S5134, multiplied by equals
42S ,75l, multiplied by equals 81 ,42S,
multiplied by > equals IA ,2S5, multiplied
by equals Sj7 l42 multiplied by equals
999 1899. Multiply l42 ,S57 by s and you
have JAP $50. Then add the first figure to
the last and you have l42 ,S57, the original
number, the figures exactly the same as
at the start.
Another mathematical wonder is the
following: 1t is discovered that the null
tjtlication of 9S7 ,654 1921 by 10 gives
'44+ ,444 ,+t4 AS. ReverSingSthe order of
the .digits anG multiplying lf5 ,456 ,7S9 by
~ we get result equally curious, 5 800, =
500 sos. If we take l23 1856 ,7S9 as the
multiplicand, and, interchanging the fig
ures OF As, take 81 as, fthe multiplier,
6 ,GGG ,6G6 COG. Returningto the multi
plicand, 9S7 ,G54 1921, and taking 81 as the
multiplier again, we get 8 1888, 1913 ,334-
all 3's except the first and last figures,
WHICH together Teau of-tne multlpier.
Taking the same multiplicand IND %,
the half of 81, as the multiplier, we get a
product of % ,GG6 ,6G6 ,G67-all 6's except
the first and last figures, which together
read 27-the multlplier. Now, inteil.
changing the order of the figures ~, and
using ~ as the multiplier and 9S7 ,G5+ 1927
as the multiplicand, we get Il produtT-of
