Superstftious Hungarian Peasants.

Superstitious Hungarian Peasants.
A queer case of superstition which
resulted in the loss of two lives is re-
ported from Hungary. A peasant iv-
ing in NOsztany died Of heart disease
while attending market in Kurd. His
relatives started to take the body home,
but were forcibly prevented from car
rying the body through the village Of
Iharos, whose inhabitants believed that
the passage Of a strange corpse through
their town would bring endless misfor-
tune to it. The procession returned to
Kurd, and the next day it set out again,
this time with an escort of gendarmes.
When it reached Iharos it was met by
the whole population of the village,
armed with scythes, pitchforks. axes
and anything that could be used as a
weapon. The gendarmes were forced
to fire three volleys before they could
get through the place. Two of the vii
layers were killed and many wounded.

August. having saved nice piece of
clover or blue grass or both, with Il
patch of rape to run on at their pleas

up to the fence of the field where the
lambs are. At this time / am very
particular to see that the lambs have
plenty of water. Rape in the stub
bles from this time on seems to be just
the thing for the lamb as we'll as the
older sheep. When the grasses and
rape begin to get too short to maintain
a good growth l begin to feed the
lambs a few oats every evening at the
same time of the day, just few scat

The Reason For the Fit.

The work of the regimental tailor
may Or may not be addressed to style.
1t all depends, as in other lines of
Noldiering, on his superior officer.
When Sir George Grove was a young
man in the West Indies, superintend-
ing the erection of lighthouses, he met
an English army officer who was so
exceedingly well dressed that he was
moved to say:
"You don't get those clothes here,
SUPPOSE
ooh, yes" replied the officer. ''The
regimental tailor made them for me-
''Is it really possible that the regi-
mental tailor can fit you so well?" ex-
claimed the young engineer in surprise.
II should think so"' the officer an
swered. HE had better fit me! l
would give him three days heavy drill
if he didn't-and he knows it,
