TALIsMANs POPULAR IN MALTA
Odd Shaped Stones to Ward OF Ef-
fects Of Snake Poison.

There are still to be found in NAL
ia a number of small stones shaped
and colored like the eyes, tongues and
other parts of serpents.
The superstitious among the NAL
'tese connect these with the tradition
that st. Paul when shipwrecked was
cast on their island. and hat it was
there that while lighting a bundle Of
sticks for a fire a viper fastened on
the apostles hand. st. Paul calmly
shook the reptile off into the flames
and no harm followed. The natives
wear these stones as talismans, in
which character they suppose them
serviceable in warding off dangers
from snake bites and poisons.
They are found in st. Paul's cave
imbedded in clay, and are set in rings
and bracelets, and when found to be
in the shape of a tongue or liver or
heart are hung around the neck. They
are also taken internally, dissolved in
wine, which method is attended, &C.
cording to some people, by more i'm.
mediate results.
