"Dead men's shoes" is a common expression, but means much In many parts of the old world, where the boots of the dead are accorded much importance. In Scotland, In the northern parts of England, in Scandinavia, as well as in Hungary, Croatia and Roumania, the utmost care is taken among the lower classes that each corpse is provided with a pair of good shoes before being laid into the ground. .If the dead person happens to be a tramp and to have been found dead barefooted there will always be some charitable soul to furnish a pair of good boots for interment along with the corpse. An inspector of police in Scotland has been known to purchase of his own accord a new pair of boots and to place them in the grave, reopened for the nurnosp of a murdered stranger who had been Inadvertently interred barefooted the day before. This practice, which likewise prevails among the Tsiganes as well as in many parts of Asia, is attributable tp the belief that unless the dead are well shod when buried their ghosts come back to haunt the locality where they breathed their last in search of a pair of boots. The shoes are popularly supposed to be needed to pass in comfort and safety the broad plains which the departed soul must traverse before it can reach paradise. Among some nations these plains are declared to be covered with furzes, thorns and morass, while other races say that they consist of burning sands. These plains of suffering are popularly credited with forming a sort of antechamber to hell It is for this reason that the boots of the dead are called "hell shoes" in Norway, Sweden. Finland and Denmark. STRIKING EYEGLASSES. Ho Law Which Declare* It an Aggravated Offenae. It is the common opinion that for striking a man with glasses on there is a severer penalty than for striking him under similar circumstances when he Is not wearing glasses. Careful search, however, does not bring forth any statutory provision which declares the offense greater when the man who is struck wears glasses. The prevalence of this idea is due, no doubt to the probability of the Judge in such cases giving the convicted the extreme penalty. The legal term for assault under such circumstances is ''mayhem," signifying that the assailant has in one way or another deprived his victim of the power of defending himself. During an altercation from which a struggle Is apj to ensue any one wearing glasses would be wise to remove them, unobserved if possible, however, because if noticed It might act as a signal to begin hostilities. Many think that glasses would be a source of general protection in these cases and often take advantage on that ground, but this is wrong, because no court would hold it worse to strike a man with glasses than one without unless the assailant struck directly at his opponent's eyes, with the Intent to wound or maim him, and whether one were hit elsewhere than on the eyeglasses would not enter the case at alL ?Jewelers' Circular-Weekly.
