bone Of the haddock that lies under
the marks Of Christ's fingers-the two
round black marks on each side Of

caused by our Lords fingers when he
lifted the fish out OF the water in or
der to take the tribute money from
It's mouth. This bone has many other
virtues. and always works good to its
owner; but 1t must not be exhibited.
and 1t should never be lent or touch
ed. or ever seen by any after the pos
SCISSOR gets 1t. The Indians Of Lab
rador believe that they can cure tooth
ache by wearing a haddocks bone
around the neck, while Lord Bacon
says that wearing on the finger
rings OF seahorse teeth will cure
cramp.

Inhabitants Of Asiatic Turkey to col

ana place them In large pits In the
ground. Here they were broken up and
allowed to remain all winter. In the
spring the owners would return, wash
OUT the remnants of the crayfish In
water. and sift out the stones with
special sieve. The stones afterward
were sold In all apothecary shops
throughout Russia. while great guam
titles were exported. They were sup
posed to furnish immunity against GER
tain abdominal diseases.
