The Thirteen Superstition

1t is said this strange superstition
extends away back to the time of King
Arthur. When the good British king
founded the famous Round Table, he
requested Merlin, the enchanter, to ar
range the seats. Merlin arranged one
set to represent the apostles; twelve
We're for the faithful adherents of Jesus
Christ and the thirteenth for the traitor
Judas. The first were never occupied
save by the knights distinguished for
their achievements, and when death
occurred among them the seat remained
vacant until a knight, surprising him
in heroic and war-like attachments,
should be considered worthy to fill the
place. If an unworthy knight sought
the vacant chair he was repealed by
some magic power. The thirteenth
seat was never occupied but once. TIL
story goes that naughty and insolent
Saracen knight sat down upon it and
was Immediately swallowed up by the
earth. Ever after it was known as the
''perilous seat" and, brave as the cele-
brated knights of the Round Table are
said to have been, not one ever had the
courage to sit on the thirteenth chair,
and the superstition against it still sur
wives.
The Maidstone Myth.
"Here's something that will interest
you," SAD a physician, as he placed a
lump of slaty-looking stone in the
hands of a scribe. "a patient of mine
gave me that this morning with as
grand an air as if she were giving me
a silver dinner service. No doubt She
thought it had as great value. It's a
maidstone. You've read accounts of
them. Put them on dog bite and
they will suck it and give off green
froth, and all that sort of rubbish.
There's no such thing as a maidstone
in the world. Touch the stone to your
tongue. Notice anything? Sticks,
doesn't it? That is because it is anhy-
drous. 1t has gone through slight
chemical change and has lost part of
the water that was in it's original COM
position, so that it readily absorbs the
moisture. 1t will stick to a cut or a
bite or anything else that is wet, and
that is all there is to it. But it's a
harmless sort of superstition, and if it
makes any poor devil comfortable, for
goodness sake let him believe in it."

suppose that the Democracy was in a

that the universe was about to behold

point of fact they are much distressed
