THE "THIRTEEN" SUPERSTITION.
Said to Have Had Its Origin in the Last
supper of Jesus.

said to Have Had Its Origin in the Last
supper of Jesus.
Of all the minor superstitions, per-
haps the most prevalent is the one
which is the subject of discussion in
this article-that of sitting thirteen at
table. An idea of it's prevalence among
all nations may be obtained by advert
ing to the well-lSnown facts that the
Turks have almost eXpunged the num-
ber (1S) from their vocabulary; that the
Italians never use it in making up the
numbers for their lotteries, and that
the thirteenth card in any of the games
bears the figure of death; that no house
in Paris bears the No. 13, and that in
that city the Quartorziemes are recog-
nized persons in society who hold them
selves in readiness to be invited to any
dinner which otherwise would have the
fatal thirteen at the festal board. The
thirteen superstition, briefly stated, is,
that if thirteen persons, either by acci-
dent or design, dine together at the
same table, one will die within a year.
It's origin has been traced back to the
old Morse mythology, in which occurs
the story of the gods sitting down to a
ltdSJ WiUll lLOlNC III llG ' ulndlld, Dali
dur was the thirteenth at the table and
had to die. 1t is hardly likely, though,
/ that so obscure tradition connected
with an ancient faith limited to COM
paratively small locale would be able
to spread its pernicious influence so
| broadcast over the earth. The popu-
larly accepted origin may be taken as
the right one. The Last Supper, which
so Immediately preceded the crucihxion
of the Saviour, must always have ex-
cited a sentiment of awe in the breasts
of the faithful, which in an unenlight-
ened age easily degenerated into feel
ing of superstitious terror. Leonardo
da Vinci, in his famous painting on the
wall in the refectory of the Dominican
convent of Santa Maria-della Oracle, in
Milan, unwittingly, perhaps, gave the
first impulse to the superstition in the
minds of the ignorant masses who be-
held the twelve apostles and the Master
at table. To see before their eyes the
fatal feast itself must have affected
them far more profoundly than could
the most eloquent sermon on the sub
ject. In this picture, too, we see Judas
in the act of spilling the salt; thus it is
fair to presume that both superstitions
have practically the same origin r.

TO TEST MUSHROOMS.
How to Avoid the Poisonous Growt
Which Resemble Them.

HOW TO AVOlu tho POISONOUS GrOwthS
Which Resemble Them.
Poisoning by mushrooms is generally
caused by the disregard of very simple
points of observation. In the first
place, no one should undertake to
gather these excellent foods without
being fully informed as to their shape,
color, odor and taste. There are many
books ing all these in detail, Here
!: iced only be said that any mushroom
't,..rh looks clean and fresh, is not
worm-eaten, has pink gllls under buff
colOred cap, that turns dark when
bruised or matured, has a nutty taste
and pleasant odor, may be presumed
to be good. Mushroom gatherers avoid
fungi growing from what is called a
vulva or hollow cup at the base of the
stem. The writer's test, after noting
the above characteristics, is to taste a
small portion of the cap without swal.

ticle of the mushroom. When the
mushrooms are gathered, they should
all be carefully washed in water con

TORTOISE SHELL,

Ornaments-New Uses for 1t.

Women of Fashion VIII Wear 1t in Their
Ornaments-New Uses for 1t.
Almost two years ago the fashiona-
BILE woman who could not by some hook
or crook possess an emerald or two in
her jewel box, felt that the world stood
all awry, and her life for lack of emer-
aids was but blank, dreary waste of
broken hopes. Every woman she knew
wore emeralds set in some form or other,
and during the craze for the green stone,
diamonds for time lost their prestige.
But the popularity of emeralds was
not long lived, and turquoise came in to
their place. just now, however, far
sighted jewellers are busily polishing
up and setting their supply of topaz for
the time seems ripe for temperance
of the golden stone. Topaz are to be
set with amythists and sapphires to
give the good effects of contrast. Sap
phires more particularly will be ia
vored so nearly does the blue match
the glowing purple of the corn flower.
But Just watch the jewelers. windows
for the topaz and see how wonderfully
it will be set in ornaments of daintily
carved tortoise shell; wonderful combs

sprinlSled everywhere with topaz in
every shade, from pale straw color to
deepest yellow. Tortoise shell is to be
the chosen setting for the new favorite,
and besides the fanciful combs, wonder
full bracelets are being made of the
richly colored shell. Scarcely bracelets
or bangles are these new ornaments,
but old-fashioned armlets that clasp the
| white members above the elbow.
A woman just back from a flying trip
to the French capital wore one of these
armlets at dinner the other night. The
jeweled lace sleeve of her left arm was
much shorter than that of the right, and
just about midway between the shoul-
der and elbow was clasped band of
richly tinted tortoise shell, that broad
ened out on the top side of the arm into
shield-shaped piece, that was carved
and inlaid in fancy gold designs, and
| directly in the center twinkled huge
topaz, The round polished arm gained
an additional glow of pearly whiteness
| against the dark she'll and when in the
| drawing room, after dinner, the other
women wished her to pass the bauble
around for closer inspection, she smil-
ingly shook her head. MY bracelet
she said, lis copied from one worn by
rich and titled French woman who is
possessed of famously beautiful arms
one of which in her childhood was
marred by the physicians vaccination
needle. In consequence of the ugly white
scar she clung to long sleeves, till an
artist jeweler thought out bracelet
design by which the marks could be
concealed. Now if l take my bracelet
off scar just like the one my French
friend suffered from will be seen, so
now there is no need for women, whose
parents permitted them to be SO grossly
maltreated in their infancy, to become
martyrs to long sleeves or faunt their
injured members in the eyes of polite
