Occasionally the humble but use
ful potato, when stored tn a dark
cellar, becomes luminous, much to
the astonishment and consternation
of the observer.
Many a story of a weird specter,
or ghostly visitant from another
world, has had Its origin In some
phosphorescent display. There are
many forma of more or less lumi
nous fungus which live In woods
and forests, caves and churchyard*,
and their mysterious bluish-green
light, shining out In the hours of
darkness, would doubtless fill the
superstitious mind with awe and
fear.
Sneezing Superstition
Ancient rabblnlstic tradition as-
serts that from the time of Adam
to Jacob sneezing was a sign of
death.
.Jacob thought long on
these things. He finally went Into
prayer for a repeal of the law. So
successful was he In his petition
that the phenomenon of snetsshig
censed to be a sign of death and
hrrame an Infallible sign of life.
After Jacob’s day, when children
came Into the world, they an
nounced their arrival by sneezing.
So that when lhe son of the Shuna-
tnlte was called to life by the pow
er of Elisha, “The child sneezed
-even times and the child opened
his eyes.’*—New York Times.
