stored to it's normal condition,

''There is subtle connection between the ear and

are those Of the women who are tired,
and who have been tired SO long that
they are suffering from some form of
nervous disease. They may think they
are only tired, but in fact they are

TEA TABLE sUPERsTITIONs

An old superstition is that If the lid
is forgotten when the tea is put in the
kettle to steep there will be visitors.
When girl receives two spoons with
her cup of tea she will be married
within the year.
Those who help themselves to the
milk or cream before putting in the
sugar will be crossed in love.
A tea leaf floating on the top Of q
cup Of tea means that the drinker has
an admirer. If the tea is stirred
quickly and the spoon held upright in
the middle of the cup, the lover will
call that day if the leaf is attached
to the spoon.
