THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
“ SLAVE”
T T BY no meuns infrequently
occurs that national names
become the type o f particular
qualities, characteristics or dis­
positions, us is well evidenced
In the adjective "frank,” derived
directly, and without the altera­
tion of a single letter, from the
tribe name of the Franks, fa­
mous for their free open life,
und their continual resistance to
oppression o f all kinds.
In much the same way we
obtain the word “ slave,” the op­
posite of the Frank, or free­
man.
Gibbon, in his “ Decline
and Fall,” has a passage which
throws much light on this: “ The
unquestionable evidence o f lan­
guage attests the descent of
the Bulgarians from the orig­
inal stock of the Slavonic or
Slav race.
The kindred tribes
of Serbians, Bisneans, Kasivl-
ans, Croatlans, Wullachians and
others followed either the stand­
ard or the example of the lead­
ing tribe. From the Euxine to
the Adriatic, in the state of cap­
tives or subjects or allies or
enemies. In the Greek empire,
they overspread the land and
the national appellation
of
'slaves’ hns been degraded by
chance or malice from the sig­
nification of glory to that of
servitude.”
A mere chance, mishap In
wnr, is therefore responsible
for “ slave,” and those old
Slavic tribes, subdued, stolen
and sold, have immortalized
their names and concentrated
their record within the con­
fines of a single five-lettered
word.

WHY

IS T H E S P IL L IN G O F
SALT UNLUCKY
£ )
-
'T 'l I E superstition connected with the
^ spilling o f salt during a meal
has had the same origin ns that con­
cerning 13 people at a table— the Lust
Supper. But, unlike the latter be­
lief. there Is no foundation for it in
history. None of the accounts of the
Last Supper records nny spilling o f
the salt by Judas and it Is doubtful
whether Leonardo da Vinci, In his
famous fresco of Christ and His
uposties, intended to attach any sig­
nificance to the overturned saltcellar
beyond Indicating nervousness on the
part of Judas. Dn Vinci’s painting
having been nceepted as an historic
replica of the Supper, It Is only
natural that the Incident o f the over­
turned salt should have been Implant­
ed In the public's mind as an Integral
part of the meal and that it should
have been connected with Judas and
his subsequent 111 fortune.
The custom o f throwing salt over
the left shoulder in order to dissipate
any evil influence has nn origin which
antedates Da Vinci by many hundreds
of years. The pagan Romans con­
sidered that salt was sacred to the
I‘etui tea, the household gods, and that
to spill It dtring a meal would incur
the wrath of these gods— not upon the
splller, but upon the person toward
whom It waa spilled. Casting a pinch
I Ball ever the ■ • v
shoulder o f evil—was therefore an
act of politeness, f» r it was supposed
to lift the curse from the person to­
ward whom the salt fell and to fasten
It upon the splller himself. It was
doubtless this ancient Latin belief
which caused Leonardo da Vinci to
include the overturned salt In hij
minting of the Last Supper.
