GOOD AND BAD MEANING I Innumerable Superstitions Connected From Time Immemorial With Wild Creaturee. Thore uro very many BupoiHtitlonB I connected with wild animal* In tho cant) of ii lion, It is believed that the wearing of a claw of this animal will bring groat strength. People connected with circuses and shows have a saying that when lion* ! gat restless and uneasy, either ill luck or extremely bad weather 1h at hand, and that whan they continually wash their facet* In cat-like fashion they are likely to have fits of HI temper In the near future. Numberless are the superstitions associated with the tiger. The natives of India believe thut its whiskers are a deadly poison, and that when lluely chopped and secretly put into a per Hon 'h food they will assuredly cauue death. What 1b known as the ''evil eye" 1h greatly dreaded in India, and to avert thia parents hang the claws of tigers round the necks of their chil dren. To aee u wolf 1b supposed to be a good sign, but if a man Bees a wolf before the wolf Bees him, then he will become dumb for tho time or lose his voice. For a hare to run acroes anyone's path 1b considered a very bad Bign in eoitto parts of England, because in olden times it wuh believed that witch es transformed themselves Into haree in order to bring bad luck to their ene mies. ! . i |HIS BRAIN WORKED SLOWLY |8mall Boy Turned Statement Made by His Teacher to Good Advantage. "Strange to say," said tho school '.teacher, addressing hiB class of boys, ?"our brain acts aH a telephone to the different parts of our body. Uncon sciously, before we move our feet or hands, the message comes from tho brain." "Jack Murphy, what aro you grin* ning at?" ho demanded. "I was thinking of somethln', air," came the answer. "Well, think of something that'll do your brain a little good!" retorted the master. "Here, come out of that!" ? as an other grin spread itself over the ?saucy youngster's face. "Just stand behind tho hoard for half an hour, and I'll give you something to grin about afterward!" At the expiration of tho lesson Mur - phy was recalled. "Hold your hand out!" demanded tho teacher, switching his cane. . No, response frotn tho stolid Mur phy, "who appeared to bo thinking hard. "Do you hear mo. Murphy?" exclaim ed the exasperated mail. "Yes, sir," ho answered, "but my brain hasn't sent the message down yet! " Deo Volente. How conceptions of travel have changed is Illustrated by tho disap pearance of the old "D. V." provision. Writing of tho Hath road, Mr. Tris tram notes that in Charles II. 's time the coacheB between London and Hath in three days "if God permit; " but in 1780 tho time had come down to two days, and tho pious saving clause was omitted. "God permit," according to Grose, was a regular slang term for the old stage coacji, nod readers of Scott will remember what tho Anti quary said about it. Hut Dean Ram say tells of the village carrier who, upon being asked when he would be at Aberdoen, replied: "I'll be in on Monday, God willin' and weather per mittln', an' on Tiseday, flther or mo." Spoiled the Show. There Is a good story of an actor who was depicting on the boards a powerful pathetlo part. He had made tip marvelously to look starred to skin and bones, tot tering on the vergo of death from starvation, gasping for breath, and weak from emaciation. Still, he had on his Angers a flash ing diamond ring, and the sarcastlo gallery reproved him for it one night. At the critical moment the hero fal tered out In agony to tho gallery: "Good beavens! If this fails, what shall I dor . The answer floated down unexpect ed from the top seats: j "Pawn yer ring!" I The act was spoiled. Rotes for Restoring Hair. Rosea form the chief ingredient In what is probably the earliest recipo for a hair restorer on record. Accord ing to Pliny, "wild rose leaves reduced into a liniment with bear's grease make the hair grow again in most marvelous fashion." Pliny also rec ommends "ashes of rose as serving to trim the hairs of the eyebrows." Itoses figured prominently in several old-time Strong drinks, such as rosa soliB, which consisted of rose water mixed with aqua vitae and flavored with cinnamon. The favorite morn ing draft among Elizabethan royster ers was "rosa soils, to wash the mol ligrubs out of a moody brain." His Own Fault. "Out of a Job, arc you, Klaxby?" 'Yes; they got my scalp finally." "How long had you held that office?" "About 30 years. And it's pretty tough, at my age, to have to take up some new occupation to make a liv ing." "Haven't yon got enough to Jive on?" "I should say not!" (Looking at him with disgust.) "F^axby, you make me tired! You're not fit to hold a public ofrtro!"
