The Evil Eve In Abxsslna.

The Abyssinian has q singular SUI
perstition regarding eating in the
open. To him q ut OF indigestion
from oyer-feeding would mean the
evil eye. He would feel assured that
some part Of the performance OF ap-
peasing his appetite had been OBJ.
served. In walking along highway
in this country, / came across what
appeared to be large bundle OF
washing just little OF the road. On
approaching 1t, the movement going
on within was plainly discernible
Covered up in their shemas, or cloths,
were three men eating their midday
meal. So much in fear are the peo-
pie of the evil eye, that they carry
amulets containing prayers, and rolls
OF parchment several yards long; and
pictures illustrative OF the triumpha
OF the good spirit over that ocular
absuriity are kept in their houses for
protection.
II an Abyssinian sells you anything
aud is we'll inclined, he will caution
you to keep it indoors or covered up;
for II an evil eye should fall on your
purchase 1t may spoil or disappear,
which latter contingency Is much
more probable In Abyssinia l had
some experiences OF the kind Of evil
eye that caused goods and chattels to
disappear. 1t cleaned for an In.
stance In the head Of an Ethiopian
whom l caught walking OF with some
dollars from pile In our pavnlaster's
tent; the corner Of the evil eye smiled
innocently when detected, but the
smile faded away under the influence
Of the paymaster's boot. Century.

II once knew an old Scotch shoe
maker living in the little Town OF
Timpson, Tex. who was perfectly
familiar with the works OF all the
great writers and thinkers since the
dawn Of Greek civilization" said J.
Z. Bishop. s'He worked at the bench
with the dramas OF Euripidcs, the
philosophy OF Aristotle, the meta
physics of Kant, and kindred works
ever before him. There he sat year
after year, surrounded by the choicest
flowers of Grccian rhetoric and old
shoes, keeping time with his hammer
to the music of earth's mightiest
! bards. He had not only read but di.
gested everything that was worth
reading. There WAS not quib OF
the sage OF Ferney, not sigh ia Will
helm Meister not a covert sting In
Swift's irony, nor Parthian arrow in
