The Folklore of Fuss.

Fuss has earned the reputation of being weatherwise. Good weather may be expected when ''tabby" washes her self, but bad when she licks herself against the grain or sits with her tail to the fire.
 Formerly in Scotland when a family removed from one house to another the family cat was always taken as a pro tection against disease. It is curious to find the opposite practice obtaining in Ireland, where it is considered high Iy unlucky for a family to take with them a cat when they are Hitting y especially so if they have to cross a river. There is popular belief that a cat born in the month of May is of no use whatever for catching rats and mice, but exerts an injurious influence on the house through bringing into 1t dIsagreeable reptiles of various kinds, says woman's Life.
 In Scotland black cats are supposed to bring not only good luck, but also lovers. in illustration of which may be quoted the well known rhyme:
 Whenever the cat O the house is black.
 The lasses O lovers will have no lack
