THE GIRL WITH RED HAIR.
She Was Once "A Danger Signal for a
Prancing White Charger.
From the New York Times.

From the New York Times
The red-headed girl and the white horse,
How fine they look, together. No wonder
they attract universal attention.
But, alas. since the cable cars and the
trolley cars were evolved from the hurly-
bury of modern progress this beautifu1
and inspiring combination of colors has
become much less frequent in the streets
of New York and Brooklyn.
This is a direct loss to the scenery here
abouts.
The time was when a philosopher of this
town, meeting girl with the auburn
hair on Broadway. need only spin on his
heel to ragale his vision with the spec
tacle of a white horse coming from the
opposite direction. And in the good old

Some are dragging milk wagons around
and among the wilds of Hoboken and
Newtown. Others are engaged in the ex-

the railroad stations and the hotels out on
Long Island. There is good reason to be-

way to the free lunch counters of East

Mr. Andrew Lang, in his book on myths.
is silent on the subject of the superstition
of the red-headed girl and the white horse.
Singularly enough even Prof. Max Muller
mentions no trace of the superstition in the
Rigveda or the ancient Aryan folk lore.
There is no mention of the red-headed girl
and the white horse superstition in the
Moorish chronicles. It has not yet been
dug out of the Old Morse mythology, al
though no doubt 1t turks there somewhere.

curious custom prevails in some pro-
vinces of Holland during the carnival sea-
son. Young women of the working class.
especially domestic servants, who have no
sweetheart of their own, are in the habit
of hiring followers for their Sunday out.
or for the whole Of the carnival period.
These lovers are by no means to be had
very cheap. Often two or three maids Will
club together and share a lover among
them If he comes too expensive for one
girl.
This temporary lover has many duties to
perform. OF course, he must be good-loo
ing and well dressed and an efficient and
interchangeable dancer, "fit to be seen with
anywhere" he must likewise possess good
conversational powers. Besides receiving
a variety of valuable presents from his
girls he is found by them in vic
tuals and drink. If a young woman can
afford to engage a swain" all to herself,
so much the better for the hireling Of
ten develops into real lover and ultimate
ly into a husband. 1t can thus be said
that. in some districts of Holland, the
girls do all the wooing.
