With a "Hexahemeron"

Pottsville. Pa.-Special: Tie final
chapter of the weird performances
In Tumbling Run valley, where
Farmer Howell Thomas. according to
relatives, was killed by the evil charm

Haven.
Ever since preparations were made
to shoot the hex" cat with a gold bull

ance at the Thomas farm, and the
hey doctors decided that the evil
spell cast yer the Thomas homestead
can only be dispelled by installing a
certain other black cat, now owned by a
Schuylkill Haven man.
This cat is said to have been born
on the sixth day of the sixth month in
1906, and to hav been one of a litter
of six kittens. 1t was blind only six
days after being born. whereas all or
binary cats are blind nine days.
The hey doctors declare that these
facts make this a "hexahemeron' cat.
According to powwow erudition. the
word "hexahemerOn' Is taken from
Greek words hex" and 'hemera," and
means a completion in six parts. They
refer probably to the word "hexamer-
ous." h Greek origin.
The word is usually used, they say,
IN referring to the six days labor Of
creation. as described in the first chap
ter Of Genesis. While there are only
hvc books of Moses In the authorized
bible. the hex" doctors declare they
have a sixth book of Moses. In this
novel book the witch of Endor. who
raised up Samuel and who is referred
to In the bible as being consulted by
Saul. ascribes full power to the hem
amerous a in warding OFF evil spells.
