This wus done with a Kiuali knife, and

How Leap Year Started.
Ilampsoti. In his "Medil OEVI. Ka
lnndailum." quotes the following
quaint tradition from an old Saxon
treutine: "Some assert that the bis
sextus or leap day routes through this,
that Joshua prayed to God that the
sun nit-lit stand still for one day's
length that he inlht sweep the hea
then from the land that tiod had grant
ed him anil his followers. It Is true that
the .-.un did stand still for one day's
length over the city of Gelmon, but
the day went forward in f,he same
manner ns other days. And the bls
sextus Is not through that, as some do
think."
In France and some parts of Spain
and I'ortupil there ixists a tradition
known ns "the ghost of leap year."
Believers In this say that a marvelous
monster annually appears on leap day
and disarranges human affairs for the
remainder of the year.
