Among sljme of the peasantry of France tto'a ef“long belief that loaves of bread -'baked a t Christmas will remain fresh . .for fen years. -It Is also believed by igome of the simple folk that during :‘th* whole of the Christmas holidays a portion of bread should be left on the - table day and night because the Holy . Mother may come tb. Shar^ it. For '■some reason not to be explained, there , 1 s a superstition among some 'French peasant wives that no bread must be baked between Christmas day and the 51 ...Feast of -the Circumcision, because an ;Infraction of thin rale will bring dis­ aster on the household. ' ‘ There Is a peasant belief of age-long -standing that If the cattle bn ffee farm ' he given drink Immediately after the - midnight mhss’ of Christmas their health will .continue good throughout ,the year. Another belief IS that If seed , of wheat be wrapped in a tablecloth • which has been used for Christmas dinner, a profitable harvest, will be “ Insured. -Another strange belief Is that , a gold bath taken*on Christmas day will protect the bather against fevers •' ,<and toothache throughout the year.
