Uncommon Sense
Signs and Onlens
BY JOHN BLAKE.

7 T seems astonishing that with all
the collected wisdom Of the race.
superstition should still exist Yet
i today, when schools abound, not
only In the cities, but In lonely
country districts, and when every boy
and girl who has the determination and
the energy can get college education,
belief in signs and omens Is stul lar
from uncommon.
I should say that about every fourth
person one meets is a little reluctant
to start an important piece of work on
Friday ! have seen men, otherwise
intelligent walk back three blocks and
turn three corners to make sure that
black cat, which crossed their path,
had not ntersected their line Of march.
I know scores of persons who insist on
crying "Gesundheit," the German word
for health, when anybody sneezes.
The forces that control this world
are cosmic forces. They are not to be
changed or avoided by. anything that
ordinary mortals can do. You and
cannot, by taking thought, add a cubic
to our statureS, nor can we stave on
bad luck by carrying rabbits foot IN
our pockets. -.
All we can do is to use all the intelli-
gence we can muster on our jobs and
In our relations with the people we
meet. If we do that, while circum-
stances over which we have no control
known as luck-may in
huence our lives, we shall get along far
more successfully than II we carry
lucky pieces" in our pockets or make
sure to look at new moon over the
shoulder.
The belief in signs and omens origi-
mated when man was not so far ahead
Of the animals. He did not know what
the sun and moon or stars were, but he
believed that in some manner or other
they controlled the forces that con-
trolled him. "Magicians," .astrologers,
fakirs Of all kinds, preyed on his Gre
dulity and made money out OF him by
telling his fortune or casting his horo-
scope.
The growth and development Of civil
lization have been accompanied by a
diminishing of superstition. But, as
you yourself have observed, there IS still
q great deal of it in the world, and
still much Of 1t is held by educated peo-
pie who ought to know better.
Perhaps one of the reasons for this
Is human conceit-the ability to believe
that one can do no wrong, and hence
the casting OF the blame due to mis-
takes on signs and, omens. But one
thing Is certain-the more intelligent a
man or woman, the less the superstition
in his or her makeup.
II you have any in yours, get rid OF
it. It can do you no possible good, ana
1t may result in running career, which
might otherwise be useful and produc-
tive.

~ all the warblers, the common
1 est species that remains as a
Y ! Summer resident is the Mary
land yellow-throat. 1t is one
of the clearest and sweetest
singers Of its tribe, for as whole the
songs OF warblers, though lovely, are
light and elusive and slight of range
At times one has a note almost like
the cardinals, a "Wit-you, Wit-you!" Of
considerable power, and again. as Nut
tall so beautifully puts it Caiways a
graceful writer, the song Is varied
and lowered into slender whisper, or
tender revery Of vocal instinct"
Amidst the quantities of poems on
robins and thruslles and mockingbirdS
and nightingales and larks and cuckoos.
1t Is always pleasure to discover praise
of one Of the little appreciated singers
Henry Van Dyck was the first poet to
discover the Maryland warbler:
AN incarnation so serene,
So innocent, BELTS the scene:
There's magic in that small birds note
See, there he f1its-the yellow-th throat:
A living sunbeam, tipped with wings,
A spark of light that shines and sings
Witchery-witchery-
The poem was known to me long ago,
before I knew the bird, and I confess
that, lovable as the bird song is. / felt

" XACTLY $50 years ago today, q
- crowd Of people came together
at Annonay. France, to watch
IL what was destined to be great
event in world history.
We may only guess what was In the
minds of those who watched on that
June day In 1888. Most likely many
were thinking that the Montgolfier
brothers were out Of their wits to sup
pose that anything could be made to
"fy In the air."
Joseph and Jacob Montgolfer were
not insane. They were dreamers, think
ers-men like others who have made
the world go forward. For this test
they had prepared large linen bag.
Hot air from fire was let into an
opening, and it caused the bag to ex-
pand until It had diameter of IS feet.
Then up, up went the bagl Any in
tie crowd who had doubted could see
with their own eyes. Perhaps there
were some who said. 1T Is magicl'
1t was magic-magic Of science and
invention.
In this first public balloon ascent
there were no passengers. The in
ventors did not dare-at the time-to
use their invention as the means Of
taking themselves or any one else for
q ride. What they were doing was to
prove that balloon could be made to
rise into the air.
For 10 minutes, the balloon remained
tn the air, going up to height esti-
mated at 5000 feet Then 1t came to
earth mile and half from the start
ing place.
News Of the event spread far and
wide over France. Three months later
a fight was made at Versailles, in the
presence Of the French King and his
court. In basket beneath the bag, a
duck, cock and sheep were placed.
The balloon rose about 500 feet, and
travelled two miles before 1t sank back
10 earth The animals were still alive
when found after the fight.
On the twenty-flrst of November,
1913, two men made flight in bal
socn built by the Montgolfier brothers.
This balloon was IA feet high and had
a aadiameter of 48 feet. 1t rose about
3.e0o feet and carried the passengers a
uile and three-qarters. They passed

Inside the body, it forms soft

Lackadaisical.

THE derivation Of the word hckadai-
sical, which we use to describe iistless,
ness or lack of awareness," writes one
of our readers, 'is not in my dictionary.
Can you give me its origin?"
This is unique example Of kind oe
phrase compounding which Is respon-
sible for some of the words in our mod
ern lexicon. It Is, however. no modern
invention, but a very old-fashioned
phrase disguised
'.Lackadaisicaf' is contraction-or
at least unihcation-of the old lack
a-daisy" which was merely an elabora-
ton of "lack-a-day," or, literally.
"alack-a-day And if you will check
back to the day when people used to say
'alack-a-day," you will find the person
saying 1t was usually what we should
describe as "lackadaisical."

The Old Gardener Says:

Flea beetles may be expected
during the warm days of June,
especially in gardens near wood
lands, where the beetles are
likely to hibernate in Winter.
They are very troublesome on
cucumbers, tomatoes, potatoes,
cabbages and eggplants. Their
presence should be discouraged
as soon as possible. They dis
like leaf surfaces covered With
any foreign substance, so that to-
bacco dust, either by itself or
mixed with lime, may be busted
on the plants with the expecta-
tion Of driving the flea beetles
away. Arsenate of lead mixed
with sulphur, one to six parts, is
also helpful. Some garden max
ers spray with bordeaux mixture
containing calcium arsenate. The
pests appear very suddenly and
work fast, so that a close watch
should be kept for them. ,
