: BOT.. 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.

|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! "

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!"
