Now their natural value baa neen obscured by Jugglery of doctors. Wb know about that In this country. The medicine man, unconsciously applying Eddvylsm, Intents a spirit into hie medicine and shifts ita efficacy to faith.

That is his profession. That ia tbe origin of those respectable occupations known among us aa the professions. A professional' man ia a man who enhances the value of the knowledge he has to sell by surrounding it with a halo of spellbinding. African religion ia therefore faith healing.

No pickpocket would dream of working unless he had in his pocket or sumew here about bia person either a small piece of coal, chalk or lucky tone" aa a talisman against misfortune. Even if tbe amulet fails them, and they are captured with It iu their possession. they account fur the fact by remembering that they have disregarded some other warning that was given them earlier in the day. For instance, should a thief be riding on lop of an omnibus and tbe horae slip, he regards it aa a warning that he must do iki work that day. All habitual criminals regard the Bible with awe. To a man, almost, they will lie without motive, but when iu the witness box they will do anything to evade kissing the book. A common mode of getting out of the difficulty is to kiss the thumb that is helping te bold the Bible Instead of the actual book. Should a pickpocket steal a purse containing foreign lnouev he regards it as certain that before the year is out he will have traveled in strange lands To find gold in a purac stolen at a wedding is a sure sign of good luck, while at a it ia 'equally bad to "work funeral. By every clasa of criminals funerals are regarded as tokens of ill luck. To meet one while en route to a house where a, burglary is to bo carried out means that death or Imprisonment awaits the attempt. There ia an old man named Cowper, now in Parkhurst term Prison, serving his twenty-eight- h of imprisonment, who is a perfect on criminals auporatilions. He firmly believes that he can never be sentenced again after hia present term lisa expired, because 28 has always been a lucky number for him. He ia probably right, for In the beat of circumstances tbe old man can have but very few more years to live If a burglar meets a sleeping dog he regards It as a sure sign that he will be lucky for a long time. To see a flag flying over a private house la taken aa an invitation, almost, to crack the crib ao householders please note. Females that squint an Immune from the attentions of tbe criminal classes. No burglar would break Into a house if he knew that a maid servant who squinted was kept there. Similarly a pickpocket would have nothing to do with the possessions of a lady with a cast in her eye. A man in lha habit of passing counterfeit rain will never attempt to get rid ot any to a woman who squint a AU criminals are great believers In dreams. Some time ago, at Manchester, a daring thief awaiting trial, told a warder that he bad dreamed that he had seen a rainbow. From this he deducted that be would be acquitted at hie trial. To every one's surprise he waa. Babies' boots and bullets that have actually been used in warfare are regarded by a burglar aa the luckiest (hinga ha can acquire. A donkey's ahoe la also a good talisman against evil. The popular superstition attached to Friday and the number 13. curiously enough, are scarcely considered by the thief. Houses with the following numbers are always considered unlucky to burglarize: 444, 111, habit-and-repu- 93. 22. Members of the house-breaki- fra- ng ternity will never again visit a house iu which their work has been disturbed. On the other hand, they will resort again and again to house they have once successfully plundered. The police are well aware of this fact, and they frequently catch men by patiently walling for the next visit. No thieves like buying absolutely new Imot. In no clrrum'stancea can they be persuaded to part with footgear during the period of wearing which their depredations were successful. When compelled to leave off wearing them from sheer necessity a thief will have a wrist-stra- p or some o' her' article he can wear made from the uppers For a thief to break a blood vessel and recover hi health is regarded as the luckiest ihlng possible in . more senses than one.
