when we ran up the stairs we found the
poor little gal laying in the passageway

next morning, pop came over and told
you, and the little thing was fetched
home" M E
''And very good and kind you have
been, my dear, and we are very CRATE

Then it all came back to me, my
dream, my waking and stealing out to
the head of the stairway, and my vision
of the terrible old woman in the blanket
standing in the corner.
I astonished them and frightened them
both very much by suddenly sitting bolt
upright in bed.

the girl. What did you say about put

Then the girl told me how she had
put white case on the bolster she had
got out for her bed, and how she had
taken a couple of blankets and come up
stairs with them. But seeing that had
fallen into Light sleep and hearing me
moan, she had been afraid of waking
me then, and SO had placed the things in
the corner. intending to come up by

Credunty.


Usually. in bewitching q person, it
was thought necessary to possess some
thing closely connected with the victim,
as lock of his hair, nail pairing or
even a small quantity of his saliva
The belief engendered by the shamans
often had very serious consequences to
innocent persons. If a shaman told a
patient that he was afflicted by disease
which a certain man or woman had
charmed into him, the consequences to
the supposed offender were often seri-
GUS enough, and such beliefs led to many
deaths.
This is particularly the case in Africa,
where the same belief occurs, and thou
sands are yearly sacrificed, because they
are supposed to have afflicted others
with disease spirits, or to be the authors
of misfortunes of one sort or another.
The power too 'thoodoo," that is, be
witch, is believed in by very large
number Of the negroes of this country
In fact, such beliefs are common to the
ignorant everywhere, be they red, white
or black.
We should not be too ready to despise
the Indian who holds them, since faith
in charms, fortune telling and similar
nonsense survives today among civilized
people who ought to know better, and
many are they who thrive by the prac-
tice of such arts. Credulity does not die
with sorcery and barbarism, but lives
ON, and will continue to live until men
grow much wiser than they have yet
grown.-H. w. Henshaw in Youths
