Blind Fate

One way of having fortunes told
at a Halloween party is to sus-
pend from strings in a doorway,
a few inches apart, a thimble to
signify spinsterhootl, coin to in
dictate wealth, a candy heart to
indicate sweetheart, a stone to
indicate a hard road to travel, etc.
Then blindfold the player in the
middle of the room, turn her
around three times, face her to-
ward the door, and have her walk
through with one hand stretched
out. The thang she touches with
her hand will indicate her fortune
for the coming year.

HALLOWE EN- MUSINGS

In a fortnight or so HalIowe 'cn
will be here, and already plans are
being made for entertainments on
that night, the last night of the
month. 1t gets its name from the
fact that it is the night (or even
ing) before All Hallowmas, or All
Saints Day. For some hundreds
Of years, many strange costumes
and wierd charms have been prac-
ticed on this night, and though su-
perstition is not as common as it
used to be, still we may find those
who honestly believe that a girl
who will take a candle at exactly
midnight and 90 into a dark room
and look into a looking glass, will
see peering over her shoulder the
face Of her future husband!
1t is impossible to trace the orr
gin of many of these supersh
tons, and none Of them seems to
have any connection with All
Saints Day, But they give un-
limited opportunity for fun at a
party, and provide the hostess
with wide choice in decorations
and program. Black and orange
are usually the colors chosen
probably on account Of the orange

lin heads are so often made, by

side! These pumpkins, and witch,
es and black cats cut from black
paper or cloth, the witches kettle
and broom, Black bats, witches
hats with pointed crowns, and the
wise old owl who isn't afraid of
the witch or her cat, are the chief
/ figures used at this season. Ghosts
are also popular. because of the
"scary" element.

trade associations. He was of the
opinion, however, that if the trade.

LOSES
BY ILLNESS Of
WORKERS
Disabilities Cost Industry
More Than Strikes, Says
Report on Health.
Ry international Newa serrlce.

LONDON, Sept. 17.--Illness Of
workers caused ten times more loss
to British industry during the year
1923 than strikes and labor disputes.
Statistics compiled by the ministry
OF health show that workmen were
absent from duty total of twenty
and one-half million weeks during
the year on account Of sickness and
disability. The British taxpayer
made up the loss, for after three
days of incapacity all British work
ers begin to collect sick benefits.
In other respects, however, the
years report demonstrates that the
British Isles are constantly becom-
ing a healthier place in which to
live.
The death rate for the year was
only 11.6 per 1000. the lowest ever
recorded. Births, while fewer than
in 1922, still maintained a big lead
over deaths, 1877 per 1000. There
were 444,786 deaths and 758,131
births. Infant mortality also was
lower than at any time in history,
So per 1000.
There were fewer cases Of diph-
liberia and measles during the year
than in 1922, but smallpox, scarlet
fever and tuberculosis cases in
creased in number over those Of the
previous year.
