night in q church or graveyard with q
corpse, because that would be an un-
pleasant and improbable way TO spend
q night. would wear nothing in the
nature of talisman or mascot and
never carried lucky coin. As to sit
ting down with thirteen at a table, that
is one thing would not do. But re-
spect the superstition, not because am
Buperstitious, but because do not want
TO feel uncomfortable. A good dinner
consists in something more than things
TO eat and drink. It's pleasure depends
more on the subtler elements of good
company, minds at ease and attuned to
harmony with the spirit of the occasion.
If your dinner is to be made uneomfort-
able by a mournful or unpleasant feature
of this kind you might better stop at
restaurant and swallow q dozen oysters.
You could at least then have pleasant
chat with the man behind the counter
while he opens your oysters"
