gether a lot Probably Oily fell In
love when she gave him that rake
over. At any rate, we all knew. be-
fore long. that Oily was head over
heels and that Pinky was favorably
inclined. We expected to hear any
day that they had been married be-

performances.
Then Oily came to me looking like

Yes, Pink was a nice girl, and the
act she pulled off In the big ring
cage at each performan was all II
was cracked, up to he on tho h:E
postsrs. She had all tho Dig-Cat

her own hook, and when sho stepped
into the cage IN her short SpanGled

she always made a hit. She had n

look like a real queen ot beauty. and
she was all that and more. Shc had

I don't know just when Oily made
himself prominent in her notice flrSt.

other animal had. and when Oily

The Why of
Superstition
by H. IRVING KING
NEW HOUSES

THE superstition that when
family moves into a new house
there will shortly be q death n
that family is. fortunately. not so
prevalent es some others or the
housing problem would be greater
than j; Is. Rut tho superstition ex-
lists.
The writer knew a man Of MIL

who having bought an estate. hest
:atrd Tor years to pull down the old
house on 1t and build 4 new ons be-
cause Of this ancient superstition.
Finally he risked It and dled-some
twelve years later-and then he was
about seventy-sIx years old.
The origin OF this superstition is
plain. 1t Is a hangover from the
days when 1t was thought necessary
in order TO assure the stability AMI
the good fortune OF new building
to propitiate the gods by a human
sacrifice. Human beings were en-
closed In the walls CT buried alive
under the corner-posts or pillars OF
the new edifice. The books are full
Of instances Of this practice which
appears 10 have persisted into early
Christian times. There Is a castle
in Germany where they will show
you the place where a child was
built into the walls at Its erection:
and the legend Is we'll known Of
how the evil spirits threw down st.
Columba's Church on Iona Island
as fast as he built It until he had
buried a man alive under one Of the
pillars. when all went well.
In Greece today 1t Is said to he
the custom OF builders to surrepti-
tiously measure a mans shadow
and bury the resulting figures under
the new building-the best that can
be done in view Of the popular
prejudice nowadays against human
sacrifice. And every once in while
YOU may hear tho old saying.
When the house Is finished tn"
hearse stands at the door" Some
profess 10 see in the custom OF lay
ing corncrstones a survival from the
bloody practice Of our barbarian
ancestors In their building opera
tions.
