Again, it is probable that much of this

from traditional hatred against Teutonio

In tho old romances of the Round
3hble, the red knight of the Red Lands
represents death, Whom Sir Gatvaln
finally conquers in > u Uii. Shakespeare
alludes to the prevu.mi superstition on
this subject In “As You Like It." Nor
Is it yet entirely extinct in parts of Eng
land. In Devonshire it is thought un
lucky to have a red haired person first
enter the bouso on New Year's day, and
black haired lads go the rounds, and
ore rewarded by presents. There is a
proverb among Scotch Highlanders,
“Avoid the red head and the steep rock."’
In other European lands this dislike also
exists. There is a "Danish proverb that
“red hoods and elders do not flourish in
good soil." A red cavalier figures in
many folk lore tales, und It is said that
••evil speakers and the red cavalier cause
men much distress."
Similar ideas formerly existed in Ger
many. An old poem has it that “Red
haired men and elder trees are rare in
fertile eoUl!v Another writer about 1000
A. D.. advises tho reader. “Not to thee a
red man for a special friend." William
of Tyre, writing in tho Twelfth century,
say of Fulk. of Jerusalem, who was red
haired “Ho was affable, benignant,
and, contrary to the rule of that color,
kind nnd merciful." French proverbs
carry the antipathy to animals. “He is
wicked as a red nss," is a saying in many
places Rochefort, in an editorial in his
papei. calls a political opponent a “red
nss.'' Another .Flench proverb says,
“Red haired men and woolly Jogs nro
better dead than known," and there is [»|
an Italian saying to tho some effect.
The Cliinesq antipathy to fed hair is
well known. ’ One of their familiar ap
pellations for foreigners is “red haired
devils.'' A Slavio proverb also Illustrates
the same superstition: “At tho sight of
a bearded woman and red haired men
one flees away." Among a certain tribe
of Bedouin Arabs there is a saying
against 'evil bringers hko Qodar tho
red haired '* Qodar traditionally caused
K ; evils to the tribe, and hence all red
cd men nro regarded as malevolent.

School Hygiene In Australia.
It Is an interesting fact, especially in
view of.certain comparisons nearer home
that it suggests, that in Australia tho
subject of school liygieno has received
special attention for Bomo years in tho
stato Or public schopis. The teachers are
particularly instructed to be careful
about tho spread of infectious diseases,
and the public health law is sufficiently
Stringent to secure tiio exclusion of
scholars and teachers from houses in
which communicable diseases exist.
In the stato schools of Victoria, now
for a number of years, a system of ob
ject lessons bos been given, with a view
to imparting elementary instruction bear
ing u|miii tiie health of tho |icople; those
lessons generally fncludo such subjects os
food, clothing, ventilation, cleanliness
■nd tho prevention of infectious diseases.
They Inivc also Imen given at stated
times lessons for tho treatment of snoko
bite, for the resuscitation of tho drowned
and for tho first aid to tho injured. Tho
department of educutlon # requires also
some elementary knowledge on- tho part
of teachere upon tho subjects of sanita
tion and physiology.—New York Trib
