When Othello the Moor courted and
won the fair Desdemoaa he was ac-
cused Of doing 80 by spells and medi-
cines."
In Shakespeare's day, and indeed
long after, spells and charms of all
kinds were, If not exactly an orthodox,
yet at least well recognized way Of
winning a lovers heart, or divining
who was to be the future life partner.
A good way to secure continuance
Of love was to go secretly to the lover
Rs he lay asleep and steal his garter.
Then IT must be knotted together with
the girls own to the words
Three times true lovers knot tie Sc
cure.
Firm be the knot, fast may his love
endure.
II youths affections had gone
astray, the forsaken one, IL she de-
sired revenge, took birds heart and
stuck 1t full of pins at midnight. The
result was supposed to bring about
the appearance of the false lover in an
agony Of pain.
If, on the contrary, there was no
good evidence Of his having forsaken
her toswhom he had plighted his troth,
but the girl nevertheless suspected
the genuineness of his intentions, she
could ascertain the truth by taking
the bladebone Of a shoulder of mutt
ton without saying for what she re-

In different place. II the lover were
true, at the end of the nine days he
would ask her for rag to bind up the
wound he had received.
The recipe for taking away a mans
love for girl was, as it ought to have
been, both unpleasant and difficult OF
performances.
II SO be toad be laid

And that tied to man, twill sever

Did a girl desire to know If she was
ever to be wed, she must take the rind
Of two lemons and carry 1t in her
pockets all day. Then at night she
must rub with the rind the four posts
Of her bed. If she was to be married
a man would appear in her dreams
II there were no sign of a man she
must resign herself to single blessed

To choose between two lovers, tive
apple pips were taken and given the
names of two men. Then they were
stuck carefully one on to. each cheek
The one that stuck longest was the

Another favorite plan was to take
number of corn cobs, put them to

Then the cobs were popped over thu

names they bore.
The initial Of the lover could be oh
tanned by throwing an apple parinl
over the left shoulder.
To ascertain how many years-woul'

The First Gas Tubes.

William Murdock, a Scottish mining engineer employed in the Redruth mines, Cornwall, appears to have been the first to suggest that gas might be conveyed in tubes and used instead of lamps and candles. He made a very 1T lious gas lantern for himself, with ,w.-.vh he used to light his way over the Cornish moors at night. This Ian tern consisted of bag filled with gas and fitted with tube, at the end of which the gas could be lighted. Garry ing the bag under his arm, Murdock used to light his way home at night.
