FISHING suPERsTlTIoNs.

in British Columbia the Indians ceremo-
niously go ont to meet the first salmon.
and in fiattering voices try 10 win their
favor by calling them all chiefs.
Every spring In California the karaks
dance for salmon. Meanwhile one of their
number secluded himself in the mountains
and tasted for 10 days. Upon his return
he solemnly approached the river, took
the first salmon of the catch. ate some OF
il, and with the remainder lighter a sac
riticial fire. The same Indians l~aboriously
climbed the mountain top after the poles
for the spearii:g booth, being convinced
that IL they were gathered where the sal
mon We're watching, no fish would be
! caught.
III Japan, among :he primitive race OF
the Amos, even the women left Mt home
are not allowed 10 talk lest the fish may
hear and disapprove, while tho first fish
is always brought in through a window
Instead of a door. so that otler fish may
not see.
The Eskimo women of ALASKA never sew
while the men are fishing. and should any
mending be imperative they do it shut up
in little tents. out of sight of the sea.
Under no circumstances on the north
east coast of Scotland will a fisherman at

as minister" kirk swine dog
etc, and the line will surely be lost IL a
pig is seen while batting it. AS on the
land, chickens must not be counted until
they are hatcheG, so at sea fish must not
be counted until they are all caught. 1T

the nets: u horseshoe nailed to the mast

down will produce wonders.
