QUEER SUPERSTlTiONS.

The following are some curious su-
perstitions that are still extant among
English speaking people:
If you kill frogs your cows will "go

Tickling a baby will cause the child
to stutter. ..s.
To thank a person for combing your
hair will bring bad luck. -
To kill ghost it must be shot with

To dream Of unbroken eggs signifies
trouble to come; If the eggs are broken
the trouble is past. In
II you boast Of your good health
strike wood Immediately with your fist
or you will become i'll. H.,
To dream Of live snake means
enemies at large, OF a dead snake
enemies dead or powerless.
To allow a child to look into a mir
ror before it is month old will cause
It to have trouble in teething.
A child will have a nature and dis
position similar to those of the person

The prospectors were working in Ar
row Canon range. Henry Stowe and
James Dunlap, two other prospectors,
passed their tent and found the bod

a campfire. They had been shot and
their bodies afterward frightfully mutt.

Indians from the Moapa reservation,
who are rowing about committing dep:
relations on ranches and camps OF
surveyors or prospectors. A general
uprising is feared. ~.
The trouble started over the passing
of a sentence of death on a Piute boy

The history Of the race IL written In
the words II uses. AS we grow and
change, so our language grows and
changes. Mr.. Leon Mead in his book
'tWord Coinage" points out that some
words 60 out Of fashion and come
back, like tan shoes and wide trimmed
hats, although the change IN words is
much slower than the change in dress.
In Sponsors day ''forestall." ''fain,''
'4scathes," 'askance," "embellish'' and
''dapper" were not considered good, but
they have since gained responsibility
and won their place in the language.
The, seventeenth century regarded as
obsolete a number Of Chaucer's words
Transcend" bland" sphere"
'sblithe," franchise" carve" ian
them" One by one these, words came
to life again and walk the pages Of our
literature in full vitality. Other words
now indispensable which the seven
teenth century rejected are 'splumage,"
tapestry" tissue "ledge," .tren-
chant" resource" '''villainy," thrill"
'.yelp," "dovetail." .,. .f, .,.,,
Bacon did not have the good word
encyclopedias" but used the heavy
equivalent, "circle learning"
. Fulke, the sixteenth century author
who wrote "a Defense of the Sincere
and True TRANSACTIONS Of the Hole
Scriptures Into the English Tong" did
not admit "neophyte," homicide"
scandal" destruction" "tunic," ''des-
picable," rational" Another book
published in 1868 puts the stamp Of
censure on "oblique," radiant ''adop-
tion," 'caress," "amphibious,' 'hori-
zontal," "concede," "articulate," ''desti-
nation" compensate" complicated"
and "adventitious."
1t is hard to trace the history of a
fashion in words. Seldom do we have
the precise record that Chesterfield fur

that he was present at the birth of the
