In the old Hindu and Greek legends the
mouse represents the darkness of night
and s,n An old German superstition has
it that the souls of the dead assume the
form OF mice, n every apparition of mice
was thought to presage n funeral.
Among Christian peoples the snake rep

in all times Of the cold remorselessness of

family.
And then the poor thing. by 50 much
sacrifice and labor, had no sooner got

line world. mortally afraid Of the mouse.
Perhaps, after all, the wickedness of the SER
pcnt and the remorselessness of the spider
are less terrifying to n being in petticoats
Than the horrid responsibility of the
mouse.
Explorers Of savage Africa tell us that
the native huts are swarming with mice,
that they run gsvly over the floors, walls
roofs and the bodies of the sleeping natives.
Similar ly spiders and snakes are numerous
in tropical countries, but you never hear
of an African lady savage h so much
as squeaked at the sight or touch Of any
OF these creatures or oun them even
repulsive. Instead. she kills the snake
with a stick. the spider with her thumb
and the mouse with her foot. and. barring
the spider. they become a welcome addition
TO the family dinner.
The female avage hasn't many nerves.
il is true. but she has fewer clothes, and
herein lies the reason { or her indifference to
those pests Of civilized femininity. Though
woman now apparently hugs her chains and
is even accused OF caring more for her
dress than for her soul, these a~n,ipathies
seem to be a last resentful remnant of a
struggle which she once made against her
impending slavery to clothes.
