These underground spirits are known
as the Jan. Their favorite place of resi-
dence is below the front doorsteps. and
FIR this reason women are not al
lowed to sit on the doorsteps The
JAMS are supposed to be an organized
body, having Il sultan, COURT and
regular officials. They keep guard on
the food stores, and are on the whole
fairly good fenows. They arc said to
BIO fond of human company, and it is
whispered that they sometimes assume
human shape and marry mortals. They
are most common in Egypt. One may
attract Jan by whistling, and 1T Is
said that the girls here frequently
whistle. Some of the men of Palestine

clothes and burns 1t with incense and
a small piece of alum. She first prays
over the child, waving this about as
she does so. She then throws tha
charm into an open fire and holds the
child over it. AS the alum burns 1t

shapes and the mother believes that

Same process is gone through with
by pretty girls. who feel Ill on coming

One of the most common guards
against the evil eye is a text from the
Bible. or the Koran. Ono from the
latter is some Arabic words which
mean BREAK down tho spell of tlH
eye, and another which is by the
blessings of Cod These phrases are
written and framed and hung up in
many of the houses. They are carved
upon furniture. For the same reason
is ii customary to use the name OF God
at the beginning of every sentence
which contains the name OF ones
friend.
The Jews carry about texts OF the
Scriptures, The Christians have relics
of saints, and some Of the natives here
think they have pieces of the true
cross.

to have themselves complimented with

Guarding Against the Evil Eye.
This belief exists throughout Palcs-

world. Every house in Jerusalem
whether Jew. Moslem or Christian, con-
tains charms TO ward OF such spells,
and every man. woman and child car
rles a talisnan to keep Off the witches.
Some Of these charms are In the shape
OF hand, coming from an old iewisn
belief or saying that the hand OF GOD
will arrest all disasters, and OF a
Hohamrnedan one calling upon the
hand OF Fatirna the daughter of the
prophet, to guard them from evil. Sill.
vcr hands are sold as charms ana ihs
better classes wear hands OF gold tied

has painting or carving OF hand on
It's front door to-keep off the evil eye;
and in the new houses which are now
going up they are putting hands over
the windows. and also az TIE front
doors. They tie bags OF charms over
