The speezinr sup.rstition.

The custom of saying God bless your
when person sneeZes dates from the time
of the Patriarch Jacob. The rabbis say
that prior to the time when Jacob lived a
man never sneezed but once-the shock
consequent was certain death When
Jacob came on the scene he interceded with
the Master and obtained a relaxation of
this rigid law, subject to the condition that
in all countries when a person sneezed he
himself, if alone, or n friend if one hap
pened to be near, should make pious eX-
clamation. This soon crystllliZed into one
general form, that of God bless your
1t is rather singular that this curious
custom is now observed, in one form or an,
other, in most European countries today.
In Germany the sneezer is saluted with
Your good health;" in Ireland with GOD
bless your honor" In Italy and Spain
similar expressions are used. The Rus

claim, How do you do'"-St. Louis Re

Such love and devotion rs exists between
Nine. Patti and her husband is seldom
seen on our earth And Nicolini is by no
means a bad looking man, despite his fifty
odd years. He watches over Patti with
the care of a doting father Occasionally
he goes down in the kitchen of the hotel
and prepares and cooks for her some IA
vorite dish. He is always at her side, and
every wish on her part is at once complied
with. At the opera he looks after her
dresses and jewels, and he is always in the
wings when she is on the stage.
Norton, the manager of the Grand Opera
house in st. Louis, told me that on one oc-
casion when Patti was singing with Maple
son there she made tremendous hit. She
had several recalls, which she accepted
with her customary affability, and the
house was fairly trembling with the APP
plause of the enraptured audience AS the
smiling and happy diva tripped off the
stage, radiant with triumph, Nicolini, in
an outburst of loving admiration, dropped
upon his knees and gathered her robes in
his hands and kissed the very hem of them
Then he caught and hugge1 her in very
delirium. Is it any wonder that the little
woman should love and cling to this man?
Her devotion has been something amazing.

A Cowhide Horse shoe.

In England and in the Continent they
have been for a long time using horse
shoe made by COMPRISING common cow
hide. 1t is composed of three thicknesses
of cowskin pressed in a still mold, and then
subjected to a chemical preparation. 1t is
claimed for it that it is much lighter, that
it lasts longer and that split hoofs are
never known in horses using it, 1t is per-
fectly smooth at the bottom, no calks be
ing required, the shoe adhering firmly to
the most polished surface Its elasticity
prevents many sprains, the horses steps
being lighter and surer.-Memphis Scim-
