tain as much nourishment as two

Samuel A. Thompson, secretary Of

Exchange told the following:
Among a certain people," he said.
1T used to be the custom to test the
future Of a baby by placing before
him q coin. y Bible. a piece Of cloth
and several other articles. The article
which the baby grabbed IA supposed
to indicate its future calling. Thus Il
it grabbed the Bible he would be q
preacher. II the money he would be. q
business man. II the cloth a tailor, etc.
'Once when q proud father was try
ing out this test the baby snatched the
Bible in one hand. the coin In the 9th
or. the piece of cloth In his teeth and
began to try to gather in all the rest
with his arms.
".Mein Gott:! cried the man. He
grabs everything In sight. He's going
