Tha Peculiar Belief of "Totlmlim." From the days of Adam and Eve to the present time there has been uot only forbidden fruit, but forbidden meats and vegetables. For one rea son or another people have resolutely refused to eat auy and all kinds of flesb, fish, fowl, fruits and plants. Thus the apple, tho'pear, the strawber ry, tbo quluce, the beau, the onion, the leek, the asparagus, the woodpecker, the pigeon, the goose, the deer, the bear, the turtlo and the eel—these, to nuuie only a few eatables, Lave been avoid ed as If unwholesome or positively In jurious to health aud digestlou. As wo oil know, the Jews bave long bad a hereditary antipathy to pork. On the other band, swine's flesh was high ly esteemed by the ancient Greeks and Rotnaus. This fact Is revealed by the many references to pig as a dainty bit of food. At the great festival held an nually In honor of Demeter roust pig was the piece de resistance In the bill of fare because the pig was the sacred animal of Demeter. Aristophanes In “The Frogs" makes ouo of the char acters hint tbut some of the others “smell of roast pig.” These people un doubtedly bnd been at the festival, known ns the Thosmopkorln, nml bud eaten freely of roast pig. Those who took part In auother Greek mystery or festival, known as the EleUsIulu, ab stained from certain food and, above all, from beans. Again, as we all know, mlco are es teemed In China and In some parts of India, but the ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Jews abhorred mice and would not touch mouse meat Rats and field mice were sacred In old Egypt and were not to be eaten on this ac count. So, too, In some parts of Oreece, the mouse was the sacred animal of Apollo, and mice were fed In bis tem ples. The chosen people were forbid den to oat “tbe weasel and tbe mouse and tbe tortoise after bis kind.” These came under tbe designation of unclean. But people have abstained from eat ing kinds of flesh which could not be Called unclean. For example, tbe people of Tbebes, as Herodotus tells us, ab stained from sheep. What Is tbe mat ter with mutton chops? Then, tbe an cients used to abstain from certain vegetables. Indeed, tlie Romans sneer ed at tboso Egyptians wbo did not dare to eat onions, leek* or garlic, and yet the Romans themselves were supersti tious about wlmt tbey ate or what they should avoid eating. In bis “Roman Questions" Plutarch asks,, “Why do tbo Latins abstain strictly from the flesb of tbe woodpeck er?" In order to answer Plutarcb's question correctly It Is necessary to bave some Idea of tbe peculiar custom and belief cnllcd “totcnilsm." There Is a stage of society In which people claim descent from and kinship with beasts, birds, vegetables aud other objects. This object, "which Is u. “totem." or family mark.' they religiously abstain from eating. Tbo tnembura of tho tribe are divided Into clnus or stocks, each of which takes the uame of some ani mal. plant or object, as the bear, tbe butTalo, the woodpecker, the asparagus, and so fortb. No member of the bear family would dare to eat bear meat but he bus no objection to eating buf falo steuk. Even the marriage law Is based on tilts belief, mid no mqn whoso family name Is Wolf may marry a wo man whose family name Is also Wolf. In n genornl way It may be said that almost nil our food prohibitions spring from the extraordinary custom gen erally called totemlsra. Mr. Swan, who was a missionary for raauy years In tbe Kongo Free State, thus describes the .custom: If l were to nsk tbe Yeke people why they do not eat zebra flesb, tbey would reply, "Cbljila"—1. e., ’"It Is a thing to which we bave nn antipa thy,” or, better, ‘lit Is one of tbe things which our fathers taught us not to ent.” So lt seems the word “bashllaug” means “the people' Wbo bave an an tipathy to the ieop'nrd;" the “basha- lamba," “those wbo have an antipathy to tbe dog." and the “basbilanlanzefu,” “those wbo buve nn autipntby to the elephant.” In other words, the mem bers of these stocks refuse to eat their totems, tbe zebra, tbe leopard and the elephant, from which tbey take their nmne9. The survival of antipathy to certain foods was found amoiig people as highly civilized as the Egyptians, tbe Greeks and tbe Romans. Quite a list of animals whose flesh was forbidden might be drawn up. For example, In old Egypt tbo sheep could not be eaten In Thebes, nor tho goat In Mendes, nor the cut In Bubnstis, nor the crocodile at Qmboi„ nor the rat, which was sa cred to Rii, the sun god. However, the people of one place bad no acruples about eating the forbidden food of an other place, and this often led to re ligious disputes and bad blood. Among the vegetables tabooed as food by the- Egyptians may be men tioned the onion/ the garlic and the leek. Luclcn says that the inhabitants of Feluslum adored the onion. Accord ing to Pliny, tbe Egyptians used to swear by the leek and the onion. Juve nal pokes fun at those who thought It a sin to eat them. He exclaims, “Sorely a very religious nation and a blessed peace where every garden Is overran with gods!” The survivals of totemlsm among the ancient Greeks are very Interesting. Families named after animals and plants were not uncommon. One Athe nian genus, the Ioxldae, bad for lte ancestral plant the aeparagu*. We may be'sure that this plant liras tabooed as food to every man, woman and child of tbe Ioxldae.—New York Poet Poorly Fitted Glasses that others charge you $5.00 fqr, we make a positive guarantee that we will give you much, better ones for 32.00 and $2.50 per pair, fitted correctly.
