German Can Crack
Nuts With His Lip

That nature can enable one part of
the body to carry out the functions of
another which has been lost is demon
strated in the case of Otto Friedson,
a native of Emundsen, Germany, who
lost all his teeth at the age of thirty
one, and presumably could not afford
set of false ones, says London An
Swers.
His lips are now so strong and hard
that he can crack nuts with them and
can do nearly everything that the or
binary person can do with his teeth.
He has been examined by many
medical men, who attribute his won
derful power to hypertrophy Of the
muscles of the lips, which have In
creased enormously in thickness and
firmnesS.
This man has been an inveterate
pipe smoker all his life, and much
Of the power of his lips is attributed
to holding heavy pipe between
them.

KILLING FROGS OR ToADs

TT is a superstition common in this
4 and many other countries, and one
remaining from ancient times, that If
you kill frog, or toad, your cows
will go dry, or at least give bloody
milk. Frogs and toads are of the same
family; one is the farmer brother and
the other the sailor
In the ancient cults it is the frog
which is generally spoken Of, though,
from some of the archaic representa-
lions and some Of the myths, it is evil
dent that the distinction between the
frog and the toad Was not always def
nitely drawn. .sor general purposes
may be taken as one. The frog was a
sacred creature among the old Egyp
tians ia some places it was embalmed
after death and 1t was honored with
sculptures on the tOmbs of Thebes. A
volume might be written on the frog
in Egyptian mythology. The Romans
got their generation Of the frog from
the Egyptians and the modern italian
regards the figure of a frog as a pow
erful amulet against the evil eye. Nat
urally it brings back luck to kill the
sacred creature.
AS to why the killing of frog or a
toad should have a particular effect
upon cows, it may be said that, while
the frog was in general the symbol of
Ptah, the god of the reproductive
forces not solar, it was, in some places
and in certain connections, used as the
symbol of Isis.
And Elworthy says:
ut is said that the Egyptian Isis
was born at Argos and that she is iden-

was built open to the sea, would at
low tide cape stark and dry to the
