The Corsicans are not the only peo-
pie in the world who believe in the
evil eye, for the Turk is so affected by
1t that he thinks it extends It's influ-
ences to whatever animals belong to
him. Strings of coral are sold On the
streets and said to be preventive
against the evil. 1t is very curious to
see the donkeys, crowds of which are
found in the streets. with strings of
coral twisted in their tails.
When he gets in violent rage. the
very worst thing that Turkish gentle
man can threaten his donkey with is
the taking away of the jewels which
protect him from tie evil eye, for in
this way he will give him over to all
kinds of cruelty and the possession of
the demon. In the markets bits of
coral are laid among the purple grapes
or green vegetables with the hope that
good luck will come to them and they
will bring higher price.

Many years ago n green country boy
applied to the superintendent of
western railway for work and, some
what against the superintendent
wish, on account of the danger to life
ind limb attendant upon such occupa-
ton, was given place as brakeman of
a freight train.
On one of his first trips 1t happened
that his train met another freight train
ut n station where the sidetrack was
not long enough to accommodate either
Of them. The conductors were debat-
ing which train should back up to q
point where they could pass when the
new hand vcntured TO suggest that mel
ther should back: that they could pass
each other by means of the short side
track If Hle thing was managed right.
The idea excited good deal CT
laughter on the part Of the old train
men, but the boy stood his ground
"Well, how would you go about it?"
asked one of the conductors. confident
against a stump.
The boy took up stick and traced in
the sand diagram TO illustrate his
plan.
