LUCKY RABBIT FOOT

GIVES, sir, Mr.. Fox, if you only could
= get the left hind foot of Mr.. Rab-
bit or some of his relatives you would
never again have a day of bad luck, ?
said Jimmy Grow. looking down at Mr..
Fox from the limb Of the tree where
he was perched.
Jimmy turned his head from side
to side as he kept both of his bright
eyes fastened upon Mr.. Fox to see
how he took this information.
Mr.. Fox sat looking up at Jimmy
Grow while he talked. "How do you
know SO much about a rabbits foot
bringing good luck?" he asked.
"How do I know?" replied Jimmy.
"Why, / know some one who has car
ried one all his life and never has had
really unlucky day-yet."
Mr.. Fox had just had very I'M
lucky morning. He had caught his
paw in trap up at the farm and it

SHALL
JUSTINE

JUSTINE may almost be classed as a
:. legal name. 1t is derived from
the Latin word juro, meaning to swear
or take oath, and is one of the nMny
such names that show the strong i'm
preston made upon other languages
by the Roman law 1t signifies 'just."
In early times there was a st. JUS
tus or Juste in Lyons, but the femi-
nine form was directly evolved from
Justa, virgin martyr, whose fame
was later eclipsed by that of Justina.
Her martyrdom at Padua caused that
city to adopt her as its patron saint
and her purity made the unicorn her
emblem, since it is said to lend obedi-
ence to none but spotless maiden
The Venetians believe that the vic
tory of the great battle of Pepanto,
which was fought on st. Justina day,
was due entirely to her intercession.
For that reason, Justina, or Guistina,
as she is called in Venice, is very pop
ular in Italy and France has made
her equally popular as Justine. The
English accepted the French spelling,
but we have adopted both versions in

Mr.. Man did not hit Jimmy but one

Jack Rabbit had two long hind legs

Restrictions of Plebelans.

Roman commoners were called PIE
beians and were originally forbidden
Hi political rights. They were for the
most part poor, and not allowed to
intermarry with the Patricians. They
served in the army without pay. were
sold into slavery for debt, and could
even be cut in pieces for distribution
among their creditors. Finding their
conditions intolerable, the Plebeians in
495 B. G. repaired to Mons Sacer, near
Rome, where they resolved to builG
a new city; but this step so alarmed
the privileged classes that they grant
ed to the Plebeians the right of choos-
ing annually from their own number
two magistrates, called tribunes with
power to protect them against aggres-
sion of the Patricians. After the lapse
of about 200 years the disabilities of
the Plebeians were almost entirely re-
moved.

BIZ Il. 1RDING KING
CURE FOR TooTHAcHE

IN CASE any friend of yours has
i the toothache, and you wish to cure
him without the Intervention of a
dentist, take an eyelash, hair from
the eyebrow and trimmings of the I'm
ger nails and toenails of the patient,
bore a hole in beech tree, and put
them in. Some say that the patient
should not see the tree and all agree
that the beech should not be cut down
or burned.
THIS superstition, which is found in
many localities in the United States
and Canada, reads in its formula al
most as if it had been copied direct
from the rules laid down for the gov
eminent of the Flamen Dialis, the
Roman priest who was the living en-
hodiment of Jupiter. It was the sa-
cred law that when the hair or the
nails of the Flamen Dialis were cut
they must be deposited under a 'lucky
tree" The beech is "lucky tree, !"
according to the definition of Cato and
Pliny, who say that trees which bore
fruit were considered lucky by the an
clients and those which did not I'M

Of the beech. OF the mystic light in

Not His Fault.

Private Banks had been the most
bashful and retiring little man in the
army. When women visited the camp
he had always fed for shelter and
stayed there until after they had left.
So it came as a surprise when one
of his former companions ran across
him in civilian garb and was intro
duced to a large husky girl as Mrs.
Banks. When he was able to get
Banks aside he asked him how he had
met his wife.
"Well," returned tie little man
meekly, 'Tt was this way: never did
exactly meet her. She just kinder

MYSTERY DIAMOND is SOLD
Stone Weighing a. carats Carried to
England at Time of BoIshevik
Revolt Changes Hands.

Carried to England from Russia at
the time of the Bolshevist revolution

"Princess Mary has at last changed
hands, the purchaser being a resident
In the north of England. The price
paid has not been divulged, but its late
owner, Gordon Nathan, last rear with
drew the diamond from auction, as the
highest bid did not reach $4,000.
The diamond is a stone of yellow
tint, with a Maltese cross on the back,
and was named the Princess Mary
because before her wedding a proposal
was made to present the stone to her.
It weighs A carats and is thus almost
as large as the famous Hope diamond

stone will appreciate.

done to them after severance acted by
sympathetic magic on the man him
self.
This toothache cure, then, is but a
sacrifice to the tree-god-to the benefi-
cent spirit of the beech, a 'lucky tree
for his interposition on behalf of
the patient. That the body of the
tree-god thus appealed to should not
be destroyed by ak or fire goes with
out saying. This folklore medicine
was practiced in the far-off days of
history's morning twilight and in
many localities today the beech-tree-

But Mr.. Fox was wise enough to
see now that Jimmy Grow was not SO
anxious to have him lucky as he was
to have Jack Rabbit caught, though he
did not know why Jimmy was so inter-

Mr.. Fox was hungry but he could

Jack Rabbits left hind foot again

asked Jack he probably would have
said that the other three feet had to
go with the left hind one to bring him
