The Lucky Horseshoe.

: Il was about the middle Of the sew
enteenth century that the superstitious
use Of horseshoes as emblems OF good
luck originated in England. They were
at first deemed protection against
witches and evil spirits, and were
nailed on doors of houses, with the
curve uppermost. 1t was the belief
that no witch or evil spirit could en-
ter house thus guarded. The Gus
tom Of mailing horseshOes to ships ana
other sailing craft is. still In vogue in
all English-speaking countries. To find
q horseshoe with an odd number OF
nails attached to 1t is considered the
forerunner Of good luck, and the more
nails the. greater the good fortune that
is likely to. attend the finder. A per-
son about to be married who finds
horseshoe believes that happy mat
riInonial career awaits him. =.
