FOREIGN BELIEFS ARE QUEER
Spanish Wedding Is Ruined If One

Some Other Signs.

In Spain the wedding is spoiled il
one of the guests appears entirely in
black, or if the bride looks into a
mirror after orange blossoms and veil
are fastened in her headdress.
When a persons hair ends split, it's
taken by the superstitious for a sign
that she is either witch or has been
bewitched. AS blond hair splits more
readily than dark hair, all witches.
spirits and sorGeresses have blond or
red hair, according to popular belief.
Likewise, according to the standard OF
art.
On the marriage eve there is often
much good-natured rivalry between
the groom and the bride in the Slav
countries as to who shall blow out
the candle, for the person who does
will be first to die" 1t is impossible
to trace the origin of this superstition,

TEXT TAKEN TOO LITERALLY
Graces of Mother by Giving
Tramp a HaIf-DolIar.

"Be not forgetful to entertain
strangers; for thereby some have en-
tertained angels unawares."
The foregoing quotation is from
chapter Is, verse 2, Book of Hebrews,
and it is introduced solely because 1t
constitutes vital part of this story.
Julia is ten years old and she goes to
Sunday school. 1t appears that on
recent occasion the Sunday school
teacher had considerable to say about
this matter of entertaining angels
unawares." Anyway, it made deep
impression with Julia.
A few days after the lesson Julia's
mother left her in charge of the house
for few hours. When the mother re-
turned she went to a particular cup
in the cupboard to extract therefrom
one-half dollar. In this cup is kept
the family pin money, and Julia's
mother knew that she had put fifty
cents there before she had gone out.
But the half dollar was gone. There
was an expression of anxiety on
Julia's face and mother scented mis-
chief.
did you take that money!" asked
the mother, somewhat severely.
Julia broke into tears. 81 gave it to

mother. what for?"

Rare Word.
(TO BE CONTINUED

The news dispatches told the other
day Of the death Of an old man who
had known little of fame in his ma
tive city, the pleasures of riches and
then the agonies of poverty. AS the
doctors told him he had only a short
time to live, he said:
Its been tough, but think that on
the whole it's been interesting"
Death is everywhere, as it always
has been. But for most of us it is hid
den. No more, as it was once, is
death the commonplace sight. the
thing to meet the eye on every side.
1t is pleasanter for life that this is so,
yet, because of the fact, there are
fewer philosophers in the world, fewer
persons conscious of the inevitable.
