Many Common superstltlons.

The world is indebted to folklore
for the preservation and transmission
from remote ages of customs, usages,
rules, principles and precedents to an
extent of which it is impossible to
form an adequate idea. 1t goes back
to the primitive conceptions which
have been taken up into the thought of
civilized Nations and interviewer into
their religion and philosophy. There
are yet those who believe in unluclSy in
fuences of the moon, in unlucky days,
such as Friday; in unlucky numbers,
such as thirteen. In numbering the
state room doors of frst-class steam
ships and the apartment doors of lead
ing hotels the fateful number thirteen
is studiously omitted. The horse chest
nut, the rabbits foot and the potato
are still carried in the pockets of the
credulous. That crescent-shaped pro-
lection against evil spirits, the horse
shoe, is still nailed over doorways.
Charms and emulets and talismans are
still worn, the fashionable form to-day
being the four-leaved clover. The
mascot is not the exclusive possession
of the gambler, nor is its antithesis,
the voodoo, the inheritance of Creole
communities only, while the records
of the stage show that actors still have
their Jonahs. The witches cauldron
is something more than q fading mem
ory. Dreams and premonitions have
not lost their alleged significance.
Spectral illusions are still perceptible.
Still clings the impression that com
ing events cast their shadows before. "
The horoscope still claims bearing
upon human destiny. The diyinins
rod is still used in search of subter-
ranean springs or metalliferous de-
posits. st. Swithin is still clerk OF
the weather for forty days after July
Is. Young people still stand under
the mistletoe. The asserted contiSu-
ity of red-haired girls and white horses
is still popular iest.-Dr. G. G. Bonn
baugh to the Folklore Society.

that every part Of the machine is made at

OF the Lowell Diamond was manufactured
for the John T. Lowell Arms Co. by out
side parties, but beginning with the season
OF 1897, every part OF every machine bearing
their name plate has been constructed Mt tho
factory OF the John T. Lowell Arms Go. at
South Portl nd, Maine. This fact easily
accounts for the proven supremacy Of the
"Lovell Diamond over all other lending
makes Of the world. The Lowell Arms Com

Women Tempt Death on SIeds.

Picture to yourself women in
tight-fltting skirts, lying fat upon a
small low sled and shooting down a
snow-covercd mountain like a human
avalanche. Think, too, of this same
woman travelling over the snow with
her face less than foot from the
white ground, with nothing between
her and inevitable death, but piece
OF board and two steel runners. That
is what several Englishwomen are do:
ing right now in Switzerland. Women
never participated in a more daring
pastime; the sport consists literally Of
sliding down the side Of a glacier on
surface that tilts toward destruction
at an angle of forty-five degrees.
Davos and st. Moritz, Switzerland,
are tho two big tobogganing centers
of Europe. At these places greater
risks are taken and excitement Is more
rampant than at any other place on
the Continent. Lives are lost-women's
lives, too.

Missouri Rond Convention.

A large and harmonious convention
in st. Louis spent two days in debat-
ing the road question. The principal
questions were the most feasible
means of improving the highways, the
best method of utilizing the labor OF
criminals, misdemeanants and tramps,
and plans for submission to the Legls-
lature. A committee of fifteen was
appointed to suggest q method of fu-
ture procedure.
1t was resolved that the ninety
counties in the State which are au-
thorized to levy tax of sixty cents
for county purposes be asked to set
aside one-third of it for road improve
ment. If, this was made law, good
roads would be built. A resolution
was adopted asking the submission OF
q constitutional amendment permit
ting county courts to increase the tax
levy for road purposes, and another
resolution in favor of State highway
commission. The Missouri Road I'm
provement Association was invited to
unite with their organizati and it
was decided to hold the next conven-
ton in st Louis.

Advantages of Broad Tires.

Most farmers understand that the
use of broad wagon tires gives an adj
vantage in the matter of lighter
draft, and, as they are usually mount
ed on low frames, IN advantage is
gained in loading and unloading. The
broad tires pull much lighter on paved
streets, gravel roads and dirt roads i'll
oil conditions except when soft OF
muddy, in such cases the narrow tires
are to be preferred. For use on the
farm, in meadow lands, corn lands
and in fact Oh all kinds of land in all
kinds of shape, the broad tire shows a
lighter draft and is to be preferred.

Tho Game of "Buzz."

"Buzz" is o rather lively game. The
guests are seated around the dining
table. The one at the head of the
table begins by saying zone, the next
"two," and so Oh; only the seventh
person and every multiple of seven
must remember to say "bazz" instead.
If they fail to do this they drop out
of the ring, and the next begins with
zone" again. The sport of the game
is to remember ''seyen" or the nlul-
tiple, viz, fourteen, twenty-one, twen-
ty-eight, thirty-fve, and so on. The
one who holds out the longest is pre-
sented with prize, and the first to
fall out of the ring wins the BOBBY

Whence Comes the Cat?

1t is impossible to trace the origin
of the domestic cat with certainty to
any existing specie or variety OF Wild
cat, indeed, says the Boston Journal,
the time at which the cat was first do
mesticated and introduced to human
society is simply matter of coniec-
ture. Prof. Shaler expresses the o2in-
ion that the domestication of the cat
must have been much later than that
of the dog, while naturalists give rea-
soDs for believing to the contrary.
