CHE WHY of
SUPERSTITIONS
BY H. IRVING KING
THE BRIDESMAID

THERE is common superstition
L that girl who acts three times
as a bridemaid will be an old maid
a sort of three-times-and-out" super
stition. 1t would appear that this
idea had its origin In that conception
of marriage by the ancients-as is
shown many times in mythology and
folklore-as something to which mag
ic particularly attached. Among the
forms of magic associated with mar
riage was sympathetic magic of the
sort known as contagious. Several
current superstitions illustrate this
contagious magic" idea in connection
with marriage and, reasoning by anal
ogy, it would seem as if a girl who
has been three times a bridesmaid
ought to be pretty sure of being a
bride herself.
Now the young woman who has been
three times exposed to the contagious
magic of marriage without effect.
might reasonably be supposed to be
immune. Upon comparative religion.
folklore and magic, new light is con-
stantly being thrown. The three real
ly form one subject and even Sir
James Frazer, in his twelve volumes
Of the Golden Bough," has but touched
upon vast and unexplored regions.
Therefore the above explanation of
the bridesmaid superstition is only of
fered tentatively. Perhaps future re-
search may reveal some other.

EDA'S DREAM

IDA was very anxious to leave the
IL farm and go into society when she
grew older and she thought about it
and wondered how 1t could be.
She thought it would be so lovely
to have to do nothing at all, all the
rest of her days, except to give orders.
She grew so tired at times of the num-
bers Of chores which were always COM
ing up to be done. One night after
Eda had gone to bed she was thinking
about a wonderful future and plan
ming her best make-believe plans
when suddenly little Fairy appeared.
Hello, Eda," said the Fairy.
"Why, hello" said Eda.

Drugs Excite
the Kidneys,

Take Salts at First Sign of
Bladder Irritation or
Backache

The American men and women must
guard constantly against kidney
trouble because we often eat too much
rich food. Our blood is filed with
acids which the kidneys strive to
filter out; they weaken from over
work, become sluggish, the elimina-
tive tissues clog and the result is kid
ney trouble, bladder weakness and
q general decline in health.
When your kidneys feel like Jumps

Is cloudy, full Of sediment, or you are
obliged to seek relief two or three
tire during the night; if you suffer
with sick headache, or dizzy, nervous
spells, acid stomach, or if you have
rheumatism when the weather is bad,
begin drinking lots of good soft water
and get from your pharmacist about
four ounces Of Jad Salts. Take a
tablespoonful in a glass Of water be-
fore breakfast for a few days and
your kidneys may then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used
for years to help flush and stimulate
clOgged kidneys, to neutralize the
acids in the system so they no longer
are a source of irritation, thus often
relieving bladder disorders.

were no picnics and no berry and nut
hunts. The life now was all that Eda
could possibly bear. How she did
wish she hadn't asked Fairy Grant
Your-Wishes to grant such a silly
wish.
One day she was talking to a lot
Of her new-found friends. They were
all boasting of how rich their daddies
were and of how famous they were
and Of their grandfathers and grand
mothers.
They didn't quite understand how
Eda was one of them in such an I'M
expected and unexplained fashion and
they wanted to make sure that she
really belonged.
So they began talking of their riches
and of their fine aristocracy or ances-
tors, which showed that they didn't
amount to much when they boosted so
much.
"My father was the founder of a
coaching club in the most fashionable
city," said one as though that were of
great uiSlOTlSdl Importance.
"My grandfather was the founder of
an automobile racing club and my
grandmother's father was the one who
originated riding crops now in use
in all the smart riding clubs" said
another.
"My grandfather was the brass tack
king who made the great family for
tune out of brass tacks," said third.
my father is known as the Curtain
Rod King" said fourth, land his
father before him was famous for be-
ing the founder of the Tuesday Eve
ming club dinners"
On they boasted of their relatives
who rode along the best bride paths
in city parks and Eda thought it very
strange that those who said they be-
lieved in democracy should call all
their rich relatives "Kings" when they
became prosperous.
"And who was your father?" they
asked her
HE is really a king Of the earth"
Eda answered, and they all laughed
and said, "a king of the earth; how
could he be that?"
"He Is farmer" Eda went on, "and
without farmers your fathers would
never have been able to do anything,
for the earth gives us what we eat
and what we need. But while you
would call my daddy Farm King If
you had him, 1 just call him my dear
farmer daddy and shall from now on,
for I don't like society. l want to go
back to the farm! 1 want to go where
things are happy and simple and real >
And as she said this the children
seemed to vanish and Fairy Grant
Your-Wishes had taken Eda back, and
the whole long dream had only taken
one night of real time. But, oh, how
happy Eda was that no one had known
she had ever deserted the farm and
its dear people and its dear animals
for what was so curiously thought to
be famous society.

drous Secrets said you might want to
ask me to grant you some wishes. Is
there anything you wish?"
"Oh, Fairy" said Eda, 81 would like
to be in high society when l grow up
and I'd even like to begin now"
SO before Eda knew it she was with
many little girls who were so beauti
fully dressed and they always had
people about them, maids and COVER
nesses, and they couldn't do anything
by themselves.
Eda wasn't used to that at all. She
had always been used to having lot
of freedom and independence. And
when she suggested that they all go
barefoot everyone was Mortified at her
They didn't know what to make of
that at all. And, oh, Eda wondered
after a time how she could ever stand
the life even after she grew up.

card parties and luncheons and there

Record Growing Period

The year 1926 will be recorded by
nature as the greatest growing period
for century or more. Foresters have
just found that the annual ring of
growth made by the forest trees on
the Pacific coast during the u months
of 1926 is twice the width of former
years in recent history.
Unusually mild weather, plentiful
rainfall and very little wind proved
beneficial to forest growth. Recent
examination of new growth rings is
amazing, report loggers and student
fOresters. 1t is possible in the study
of ring growth to discover whether
former years were cold or warm, in
connection with thin or wide expan-
sion of the tree trunks.

to render better service to shipping.
This area is now receiving an almost
perfect service from the railroads in
freight handling-surely the most
perfect service railroads have ever
performed. This board has been a
large contributing factor in bringing
about this condition.
]. F. Reed, president of the Mime
sofa Farm Bureau Federation, is the
chairman Of this board and has been
since its organization.
Some 200 shippers were present at
the meeting. There was also large
representation present from the rail-
roads.
A survey made by the committees
of the boar: indicates in the area
something better than normal har-
vest of small grain now approaching.
Representatives of all the roads gave
assurance to the board that there
would be no delay in transporting the
crop to market; that already suffici-
ent cars have been stored on all lines
and sufficient extra power and equip
mant is available to move the crop

the sphere of its influence. The rural
mail delivery, the telephone, the auto
mobile and the radio have forever
eliminated the isolation which was
once the course of rural life.
The work of the federated clubs,
which touches every angle of our
modern life, the project work of the
farm bureau, with it's wonderful
Achievement Day programs, and the
community life farmers are now en-
joying, will interest men and women
alike, and all lend new charm to life
on the farm.
The necessary labor entailed in liv-
ing under these conditions will be
considerable, but it will not be drudg-
cry. 1t will be source of the keen
est enjoyment and you will know
thrills you never before experienced
in the varied interests with which
your lives will be filled. Your friends
will envy you as they see your SER
enc, interesting life. Your children
and grandchildren will be proud to
visit you and to bring their friends
to your home.
In living in this way you will get
the broader viewpoint, learn to dis
tinguish the false from the true and
get a sense of real values. You will
have leisure to mediate and time to
read and digest good books. You will
come to see unalterably that life is
good and sweet and worth while II
earnestly and faithfully lived, and
that the farmer and his family have
the best environment of all to make
for true living.
In that little home of yours you
will have opportunities to proffer
hospitality and occasions to render
true neighborliness, and best of all
you will lead full life which never
knows dull moment, and Nature and
Beauty will walk hand in hand before
your eyes. You will come to realize
and to be able to pass the knowledge
on to others that all paths of pro-
gress should lead in the end to one
objective, the improvement of the
home, and a freer life and higher
ideals for those who live there.
A pure, high type of American
Home is at the very heart of our civil
lization and only by developing,
broadening and identifying the life
of that home, particularly the rural
home, can we attain to the highest
type of living.
