atoIen Hair Means Desru-

In many parts of the modern world
the believer in witchcraft still gets
hold of hair nail parlngs and so forth
from an enemy's head and hands, and
burns. buries or does something else
with them in order TO entail unpleas-
ant consequences upon that enemy.
And universal folklore reveals the con-
Germ of savages to dispose OF their
own hair and nail clippings to prevent
an enemy from getting at them. Aus
tralian native girls who have had a
lock of hair stolen from them expect
speedy death as a certainty.

Worries When He
Owned property

40 ONE people think" said the cit
izen who was waiting for the
train, that to own property Is
the greatest fun in the world. They
think that when you own property you
Just sit back and own it; but that's
mistake"
THE trouble is that you never know
how long you're going to own it," sug
gested the tired looking man.
That's the idea exactly" went on
the citizen. 81 owned a COW once. A
man gave her to me for a debt. She
was a $3.50 COW. had never owned
anything in my life before, and owning
that COW was terrible responsibility.
There was a lot in connection with
the house we rented. and we put the
COW IN the lot. asked my wife: DO we
go to bed and leave that $3.50 worth Of
COW out there all night?'
Yes she said. No one win steal
her
What? Calmly lie down and sleep
with $3.50 running around loose out
doors?'
she said that was the only thing we
could do.
81 went out and took one more look
at the COW. She was lying down and
seemed TO be all right. But couldn't
see how I was going to sleep. Indeed,
I knew that I couldn't sleep But had
an inspiration at last! A friend Of
mine who lived half mile up the
street had an electric flashlight. All
you had to do was to press button and
flash the light
Il tramped over to my friends and
borrowed his fashlight. He asked what
I wanted it for. but I didn't tell him.
think he finally decided that I was
planning to rob somebody's hen roost.
Il tried my flashlight all the way
home, Now said to my wife. we're
all right! l can go to the back window
and flash this light around the yard at
any hour of the night and satisfy my
self that all is well with the COW.
How many times do you think of
getting up to loolIy asked my wife.
oh, whenever I feel uneasy I told
her.
No sooner had hit the bed than an
uneasy feeling came on me. went to
the back window and flashed that light
on the COW. Uneasiness was working
me pretty hard that night. I was up
and down. and. OF course, it sometimes
took me quite awhile to locate the COW.
and so I threw the light on several
houses In the neighborhood and Gre
ated considerable alarm.
"A number Of the neighbors thought
finally that it was burglars. I saw
houses all lighted up inside and fellows
out with lanterns searching for the
robbers. l nearly killed myself laugh
ing until one or two fellows got so
alarmed that they fired a couple Of
shots
That scared me. I knew that shoot
ing might turn out bad for my COW.
When a man has $3.50 worth of COW

on the same hemisphere. So l had to
go TO bed and keep quiet.

But for jaw that was perpetually at

this feature debarred him forever from
that innocent company.
