taken up the subject of FRIDAY,
What is the matter with tridaVE is
it really such an unlucky day after all
According TO tradition Friday is un-
lucky because 1t was on that DAY that
Christ was crucified' Soames says
adam and Eve ate the forpiddeh
fruit on Friday and died on Fiji
day. In nearly all the countries u
Europe, Friday is regarded as the
black sheep of the days o. the week.
and it is so esteemed by Buddhists
and Brahmins. The old Romans call
ed it Nefastus, from the utter over
throw of their army at Gallia Mar
bonensis.
In England it was once the custom
to execute the sentence of death on
condemned criminals on Friday,
which. therefore, has been common
" known as "hangman's day." There
is an English proverb to the effect
that a Friday moon brings foul
weather. Most sailors refuse to go
aboard a vessel that is to start its
VOYAGE on a Friday.
on the other hand, evidence is not
wanting that Friday is one of the
luckiest days in the week. Charles
Dickens saws that nearly all the fortu-
nate events in his life occurred on
that day. In Scotland. Friday is the
favorite day for weddings.
Below is give ma list of some i'm
portant events that have occurred on
Friday.

ed to control and enhance the prices
at which the elevators sold.
The statement asserts that the op-

conducted mainly in California and
the territory west of the Rocky
mountains. The alleged trust is
charged in the bill with attempting to
drive three elevator companies not in

instituting suits against them for al

those suits were brought solely to
harass and inJure them.
