Some still existing superstitions among
fishermen arc communicated by resi-
dent. At the beginning OF the herring
season the crew all try to seize the her
ring first ON board to see if it be male
or female. If it is a male their fishing
may be expected TO he a poor one; if a
female good one. Sometimes, how
ever, the skipper secures it and hides it
away, sailing it and laying it aside for
the season. The boat must not be turned
against the sun,
Certain animals considered of ill omen
must not be spoken of in the boat, and
ministers in this respect occupy the same
place as rabbits, hares, and pigs. Fish
ermen do not like 10 lend anything to a
neigbboring boat lest their luck should
60 with It, If they lend u match they
will contliye-secretly if possible-to
break it and keep part hoping thereby
to retain their luck. Their dislike to
have anything stolen is increased by the
fear that the thief may have stolen their
luck with it. TO ask the question,
"Where are you going? of any one who
is going on board is equivalent to de
stroying all his chances for that time

unto wisdom; and let the beauty of the
Lord our God be upon u.s. Different
minds will no doubt read different mean
ings from those words.
The speaker said those words spoke of
and applied 10 human life that law of in
crease which runs through all nature :;
that law which enables Us TO live this day
this one day which is always with US, SO
nobly that ere long it beromes golden
year and that again multiplied by the
three score aud ten allotted to US makes
{ sum of righteous life.
Continuing, she showed that our lives,
in fact all things, are made up OF units,
each dependent on the other-a living part
of living whOle-that 1t took more than
one blade of grass to make springtime,
but innumerable green spears. each per-
feet in itself. that our lives should be good
and true and make perfect whole.
The the most common-placed occupation
may be digniied II we put our individu-
ality ia it, showing that there is nothing
trivial in this world. We should 90
to our daily toll as we would 60 to place
of worship; then we would find life well
worth living.
1t Is said that God buries his workmen
but carries on his work with new ones
rising to begin where the old left off. Do
you see how we can rob the new workers
of their rightful heritage? how they will
come and find blank instead of begin
ming if we have been faithless lah0rers-if
we have believed our life to be insIgnifi-
cant and worthless.
The speaker then showed that Buddha,
Mahommed and Jesus. by self-sacrifice
and their simple, tender and generous
deeds, such as any man could find to do in
any land. made them dear in the hearts of
their followers more than any revelation.
That it was not until Jesus died did even
his disciples begin to understand that
what they had seen in him was but the
EaaNsz II Il
beautiful character, and not until CEN
turtles later did the masses begin To dimly
comprehend that his life meant far more
than his death.
The lady in closing urged her hearers to
make each day beautiful day by doing
good to their fellOw-cTeatures, and in
doing so make their allotted span of "sev-
enty times one" so numbered by applying
their hearts unto wisdom and that the
beauty of the Lord will be ever upon them.
Mrs. Sprague was warmly congratulated
by many OF her auditors for her womanly
