eight inches in length, with notches
along the four angles corresponding
to the days of the year, while along
the sides were marked the saints days
and festivals.
The influence of the stars on the
conditions and affairs of men has
been believed in from the remotest
times and great prominence was
given to omens and predictions in the
early almanacs. From Stationer's
Hall in London once issued all the al
MANAGES that were published in Eng
land, with all the trash and superstt-
ton they kept alive.
The most famous of all the Sta
toners Company's predicting alman-
acs was the Vox Stellarum of Francis
Moore, first published in 1880 and
which appears to this day under the
title of Old Moore's Almanac.
An amusing incident occurred
when Benjamin Franklin started his
Poor Richards Almanac nearly
200 years ago. In the first issue he
prophesied the death of one Dart,
who set the pace at that time as al
manac-maker in America. The man
was to expire October II, 1888, at
1929 p. m. Dart, being somewhat of
a joker himself, came out with the
announcement that he, too, had con-
suited the oracle and found he would
live until October 26 and possibly
longer. On October Is Franklin an
nounced Darts death and explained
that he passed quietly away on time
all as prophesied.
Yet Dart lived to publish many al
MANAGES, but Franklin got his adver-
tisement, and many staid Philadel-
phians smiled who had never smiled
before only smiled but sub
scribed.
