SCOTCH SUPERSTITIONS.
Curlona Methods That Were Adopted
In Sickneas and Death.
A method much in vogue iu Scotland
at one time of ascertaining whether a
sickness would prove fatal was to dig
two holes In the ground, one called the
quick grave, the other the dead hole.
The sufferer was then placed between
the two,And the hole townrd which he
turned Indicated what would be the
outcome of his malady. Sometimes a
piece of rock was broken over the bead
of a person whose last agonies were
painful alike to himself and to those
who witnessed them. It was believed
that the heart of the sick man would
thus be broken and Ills release hasten
ed. Windows and doors are always
.thrown wide open in order that the de
parting spirit may have free egress
from the house and escape from the
evil ones that hover around eager to
Inthrall his soul.
During the interval between death
and burial hens and cats were kept
carefully shut up. A person meeting
these animals at such a juncture was
doomed to blindness In the future.
Moreover, unless a strenro divided the
two houses, farmers frequently refrain
ed from yoking their oxen or horses be
fore the body was "laid under the turf
of truth.” Many women preserved,
with the greatest reverence, tbelr
bridal attire to cover them In the cof
fin. Bread and water were placed in
the chamber of death, for during the
night prior to the burial the spirit of
the departed one came to partake of
them. Stillborn children and little ones
who had not been blessed by the min
ister were burled before sunrise. In
this way their admission to the land of
promise was assured. Not to observe
the practice was to destine, the souls of
these bairns to wander homeless and
disconsolate.
The fnto of the suicide Is lamentable.
His body cannot rest In the kirkyard,
for It would taint the souls of thos?
who lie therein. Frequently he was
burled in a lone dike which separated
two lairds’ estates, and passersby were
expected to cast a pebble at the rude
stone which marked the place! •

Mr. S. L; Bowen, of Wayne, W. Va.,
writes: "I was a sufferer from kidney
disease, so that at times I could not
get out of bed, and when I did I could
not stand straight. I took Foley’s Kid
ney Cure. One dollar bottle and part
of the second cured me entirely.”
Foley's Kidney Cure works wonders
where others are total failures.

CURIOUS FISH.
They l(et[i Their Eagn In Natural
PoekctH In Their Months.
In the sea of Galilee, or Lake Tibe
rias, as It Is also called, there.. Is a
Btrange fish named the Cliromis slmc*-
nls, which Is more careful of its young
than fish generally are. The male
takes the eggs In his mouth und keeps
them In his natural side pockets, where
(hey arc regularly hatched and remain
until able to shift for themselves; By
Uds Ingenious ( arrangement the brood
Is comparatively guarded against Its
natural enemies. It is easily fed, too,
but It Is n puzzle how the little ones
escape being eftteu alive. Awhile ago,
says u traveler writing to a religious
contemporary, 1 found iu my net a
number of these fish without eyes.
Others of the species, when 1 lifted
them up, dropped n number of little
fishes out of their mouths,’ which swam
nway hastily. The uatlves explained
the phenomenon. The blind cliromis
Is the victim of sea hawks. When
these birds have eaten their fill they
begin to look ont for tidbits. After
catching a fish they hit Its forehead
with their sharp beak, knocking out
the middle pnrt, In which their eyes are
set. The bony structure Is dropped
Into the water, but the eyes are eaten
by the birds with great relish.
Strangely enough, the fish generally
survive this rough treatment The
wound heals <up quickly lu water, and
they continue to ply the lake for food
as If nothing had happened.—Loudon
Standard.
Several people in the rain at tlie
park were foolish enough to reek shel
ter from the elements undfr he stand.
It is'almost a wonder that it did not
blow down- during the storm, baseball
grandstands being notoriously flimsy.
