S, West were in Cincinnati Wednesday on a business trip and had time to peep in on the famous George Remus murder trial in progress in that city.

His knowledge o f the law and court procedure, at times -baffiea not only the states attorneys but the court as well.

Twenty Cents, CH E W H Y of SUPERSTITIONS By K . I R V J N Q K I N Q P R O PH E C Y O F M A R R IA G E “ It isn't safe to smile when you arc crossing a street,” says Ironical Irene. “ It may give some motorist a notion to spner.d cheer as he goes,” I P, IN seating people-at a tattle, an unmarried person 1* inadvertently placed between two married persons -huslmnd and wlfe--tlie person so ' placed Will he-.married before the year is out. This't* a more or less common superstition in the United States and is one of the many super stttlons based upon what might be called the “contagion of marriage." It is,' in fort, another example or sympathetic magic of the “contagious” variety. Those three great changes of nine's existence—birth, marriage, and dcntfi—appear to have been In vested by the ancients With peculiar magical qualities. Or rather, from them were supposed to emanate pe­ culiar magical.influences. They were' heavily charged with sympathetic magic. . . Many are the superstitious prac­ tises among people living toduy In a primitive state by which it Is sought to Insure the fertility of the race and they are all based Upon sympathetic magic. Among our current supersti­ tions. also, there are a number oi exactly the saw* hSture. Supersti­ tions regarding death and the dead. Into which sympathetic magic enters, are universal and very numeu.us. As to the marriage contagion it, also, has its magical literature, though it Is apparently lees voluminous than that of birth and death. it will readily be seen then how a single person placed between n man and his wife at table is liable to become Infected with, the marriage bacillus by sympathetic magic, But it wilt be noted that this plnclng of the unmarried one must he done Inad vertemly In order lo have the magic work. Fate must be given a free hand—no stacking, the cards, AH magical operations were, apparently, divided by the ancients into two gen­ eral classes--oUc In which the magic was performed with the express In teat of bringing about a result, and the other In which the magical opera­ tion, In order to be valid, must “just hnpiwm,” The suiierstltlon In ques­ tion belongs to the latter class, «£ by Mfi'lilr* SymKcsu.l W * ll , trn’ t I t ?
