RETAIN BELIEF IN AMULETS
superstitions That Once Were GEN
eral Throughout the World Not
Yet Entirely Gone.

Faith in the virtue of amulets was
weil-nieh. universal in ancient days;
Lore I.acon says the historians had
firm belief in them. indeed. much OF
The art OF medicine consisted in the di.
rcction for their emp 'oyrent uems,
so d stones, bones, bits of parchment
with sacred writing, cylinders OF
stones, unicorns' horns. all OF these
would protect against the invading
spirits or the influence of the evil eye
This is the origin oG countless popu.
lar superstitions that remain to this
day The form has Leon hander down,
while the theories which prompted it
have long since been lost sight of.
This is why some people carry in their
pocket a horse ches tnut or a new po-
tato to ward off rheumatism this is
why others tie around the necks of
their children a tarred rope as a pre-
ventive against all the diseases COM
mon to children; this is why others
think gold chain will prevent quinsy
sore throat, or string of root beads
worn around the neck will help chill
dren to cut teeth.
The coral beads which ease the
troubles of teething children and the
amber beads which cure asthma are
beliefs which are firmly adhered to to
this day. Pliny relates that Domitius
Nero used to wear the hair of his wife
on his neck, thinking 1t beneficial be-
cause it was amber colored. Amulets
for teething are of very old date, and
as red was favorite color for an am
ulet, it can easily be sean how the
coral necklace came to be so popular
for infants who were teething.
Red was considered very potent in
warding off the evil eye. In time of
trouble, when the evil eye was espe-
cially triumphant, all the red tape in
a certain county in England was
brought up to ward off it's baleful in
fluence. The remains of this supersti.
tion still prevail, for many people be-
lieve that red string around the neck
is an excellent remedy for asthma
measles and mumps. The preservation
of faith in red still exists, as is shown
in the great virtues of red flannel, and
the belief that the milk of the red COW
is better than that of COW of another
color.
The German peasant, If he cuts him
| self, thinks he stanches the blood bet
| ter with a red ribbon. This may be
accounted for not only by tradition
but by the fact that blood would no
form so startling contrast when wet
ting a red ribbon as when wetting {
white one.
