The Three Fates In Greece.

The peasantry of Greece firmly be- lieve that the future of every child is determined by three fates. known as the Moral. The trio is supposed to be three old and wrinkled women who dwell in a mountain cave and who come simultaneously to the house in which a new baby has made its ap- pearance. In order that their aged and uncertain feet may not be hinder ed. all furniture is carefully set aside. and honey. cakes. bread and wine are set out so that the important though invisible guests may refresh them selves. If the household is sufficiently wealthy to possess little real money. this. too. is placed on the table with the food. All things. good and bad. are in the hands of the three fates. On no account must the child's beauty be alluded to at the time when the visitors might be present To do so would cause it's good looks to instantly disappear Nothing must be said to annoy or displease the Moral. and this makes the situation 8 bit difficult. as no one IS quite sure what might or might not dispIease them.
