FETISH WORSHIP is COMMON.
Educated and Refined People often Do
lieve In Charms nnd TaIismans.

| Educated and Refined People Often 10
lieve In Charms and Talismans,
Fetish worship is not confined to
the ignorant as exclusively as most
| people imagine" said an Atlanta man
recently toa Washington Star reporter.
For several years have made more
or less steady inquiry into the super
stitions cherished by intelligent, Gull
tured people, and you Gun scarcely be-
licve how widespread is the belief in
charms and talismanS At the Ponce
Gle Leon in st. Augustine last winter. I
met young woman from away up In
the frozen north. She was one of those
superior girls who go to the roots of
things, and her learning was some
thing wonderful. She invariably wore
queer-loolsing locllet Mt her neck. and
one day asked her why she wore such
an incongruous thing when dressed in
evening costume. She coolly told me
that it contained charm that had
preserved her from impending danger
q number of times, and recited several
halrbreadth escapes she had made.
Upon my inquiring what the charm
was she told me that it was an
African mooka stone that her
grandfather, who was q seafarinp
man, had brought home from one of
his voyages, and that it had exerted a
protecting influence on her mothers
life, as it had on her own. That woman
was one of the few really thoroughly
educated women I have ever known.
and yet she firmly believed in the SUI
pernatural properties of that pebble
she wore in n loclzet around her neck.
There are hundreds of men oil over
the country, college men, too, who
would as soon leave their collars and
cravats at homo as to go out without
rabbit foot in their pockets, or who
will not talk over business proposition
without touching their precious tails
mans. And, speaking of rabbits feet,
have been credibly informed that the
great Henry Irving once changed the
bill from Hamlet to The Bells be-
cause the rabbit foot he has always
used in making up for the part of the
melancholy Dane was mislaid, and he
felt presentiment that something
dreadful would happen to him if he
used anything else to give the proper
lines to his stage complexion. I'll bet
there are q dozen otherwise sensible
men in this hotel this minute who
would wear their stockings inside out
all day if they accidentally happened
to get them on that way in the morn
ing. The more look into the interest
ing matter the more discover to prove
that superstition is as strong among
the educated as it is among the igno-
rant"

How the Parisinns Recognized tho Duke

Countess Brownlow, in her 'Slight

and sat in the back of the box, he was
almost Immediately recognized by some
one in the pit, who cried out, yelling
toni"
The name was taken up by others,
and at last the entire pit rose, turned
to the box and called, ''Vive Yelling

Nor would the people be satisfied un-
til he had stood up and bowed to them,
when he was cheered and applauded
again. At the end of tho performance
the passage from the box was found to
be crowded with people. The ladies of
the party drew back nervously, but the
duke said: Come along!" in his
brusque way, and conducted them on.
While they were still in the corridor a
man in the crowd was heard to say to
his companion:
but why are you applauding so
much? He has always beaten u.s."
This was very true, and the question
seemed natural one; but the answer
was charming:
Yes, but he has always beaten MS

HuMoRs OF THE POOR.
Funny Sayings of Unfortunates In the
Lower Walks of Life.

Country doctors are to be envied if
all of them have experiences as anus
ing as those described in Cornhill
Magazine. On one occasion the doctor
found an old woman toiling to his door
with heavy load Of potatoes. "Take
EN-, doctor, take EN-" she said, mag
unanimously. What saith the Scrip
ture? Cast thy potatoes on the doctor,
and thou shalt find them after many
days-maybe about Christmas time
She added slyly, and, with obvious glee
at this ingenious method of insurance
against the privations of the winter,
old Peggy hobbled off.
This same old lady, when on her
deathbed said ''she didn't expect to go
to Heaven, but wherever she did go
she'd put in good word for the doc
tor"
Another woman lost her husband.
The doctor found her fearful but not
inconsolable. "Ah! poor JIM" she
said. My good man! Eth! I'm very
grateful to you, doctor, but it's a
mercy the Lord took the case into IS
own hands"
An old couple fell i'll, of old age, to-
gether. The husband died, but the
wife had more vitality. On the day
following her husbands death she was
better, and the doctor was congratulate
ing himself on the success of his treat
mcnt. But the woman's point of view
was different. She complained bitter
ly; for, as She forcibly pointed out:
