In all ages ‘women were supposed‘ to be more prone to- superstition than men. and who knows but that ‘the dread of a woman on the appearance of a rat or a mouse may not. be due. in part at least. to ‘an ancient. super-. ‘stition which has traveled down} the ages from the time when our remote forefathers believed that rats and mice were the souls of the departed‘? Nu- merous are the stories which made the ancients believe that souls were rats and mice, and some of these stories are very curious. _ _ Ex\ “How is he, and ‘where have they Vtnken him?\ Her brother stared at her stupidly. “Oh, don't keep ‘me in suspense! Tell me where he is.\ . ' T \Where who is?\ \Why. Willie.\ _ “At his ofnce.‘ I presume.

They observed 9, little red mouse creep from her mouth and run out of the window. One or the re!- lows present shook the sleeper, but could not wake her. so he moved her to another place. Presently the mouse ran back to the former place and dash-. ed about, seeking the-_g1rl. Not her. It vanished. At the same moment the girl died.\ ' ‘\1‘hen wI1a’t', does this mean? Isn't he run over?

These are technically named shots. and each one marks :1 year‘s. growth. so that by counting them the age oi’ the oyster can be determined. Up to the time of its maturity—that is. when four years of age—~the shots are regulai‘ and successive, but after that time they become irregular‘ and are piled one upon. another so that the shell becomes bulky and thickened. Fossil oysters have been seen of which each shell was nine inches thick. whence they- may be guessed to ‘be morethnn 900 years old.
