FRIDAY AMERICA'S LUCKY DAY
Old Belief Certainly Can Not Be 8ald
to Have Held Good In the
United States.
The general belief that Friday 1B a
day of ill luck had its origin In the
history of Christ, the crucifixion tak
|lng place on that day.
Friday, however, by many has been
held to be a lucky day, as in Scotland
it Is a favorite day for weddings. Fri
day has been a peculiarly lucky day
in the history of America It was on
Friday, August 3, 1492, that Columbus
set sail on his voyage of discovery
and Friday, October 12, that he first
sighted land Friday, November 22,
1493, that he reached Hispaniola on
his second voyage Friday, June 13,
1494, that he reached the continent of
America
Some other events taking place on
that day in America were the Battle
of Bunker Hill, June 17, 1775 Sara
toga surrendered October 17, 1776,
and it was also on Friday, July 17,
1776, that the motion was made that
the United Colonies of America are
and ought to be free and independent
HOW THE POLKA ORIGINATED
Bohemian Servant Danced About the
Kitchen to lighten Her Work,
and Composer Noticed.
The origin of the polka has just
been discovered. It is said on good
authority that the dance originated in
one of the little villages of Bohemia,
where a servant, tiring of her work in
the kitchen, thought to make it lighter
by dancing around the kitchen and
singing at the same time. The mis
tress of the house overheard her and
called her into the parlor, where she
was asked to dance the peculiar step
over again A musician by the name
of Neruda was present and he some
time later wrote music for the step.
The name polka comes from the Czech
language, meaning half step
In 1839 the polka was introduced
into Vienna and it made a great suc
cess. The writers of the popular mu
sic of the day adapted it immediately
to their work The polka was danced
on the stage in Pans for the first time
at the Odeon in 1S and from the
stage it passed to the drawing room.
Don't You Remember?
The love of reminiscence is deep
rooted in us We do not need to have
length of years in oider to possess it
All we need to have is a consciousnesi
of the past as past Some years ago
a little friend of mine, then four years
old, attained a new phrase, "Don't you
remember?" I say "attained," because
it was evident that she had not Only
enlarged her field of expression by 8
new word, but that she had enlarged
her field of experience by a new sensa
tionthe sensation of reminiscence.
For the phrase, "Don't jou remem-
ber?" always usheied In a story out
of her small past, some event of the
preceding winter or summer, soms
glimpse of history in which she had
been actor witness It was always ufe
tered with shining eyes and a flush ol
delight, which deepened if I was able,
to catch her reminiscence and recog
nize and enjoy it with her. Yet th
things remembered were very simple
a drive, a walk, a kitten, a child wa
tering his garden or falling down. The
pleasure came, clearly, not from the
original quality of the experience, but
from the very act of remembering. She
was tasting the pure pleasure of remi
niscence. Watching her, I fell to won
dering what was the precious quality
of this pleasure whose flavor she was
beginning to taste.Atlantic Monthly
True Companions.
There are some men and women In
whose company we are always at our
best All the best stops in our nat
ure are drawn out by their inter
course, and we find a music in our
souls never there before.Rev. Pro
fessor Henry Drummond.
"THOSE WERE THE HAPPY DAYS"
'Copyright His First Trousers
Rubbing It In.
Mayor Stewart, at an insurance
men's banquet in Saginaw, told an
Insurance story.
"A septuagenarian," he began, "said
one evening at dinner to his fair
young wife:
'My darling, I have just insured
my life in your favor for $100,000/
"'Oh, you duck!' the beautiful girl
cried, and, rising and passing round
the table, she kissed her husband
lightly on his bald head.
'Darling,' he said, taking her slim
white hand, 'is there anything else
I can do for you?'
"'Nothing on earth,' she answered
and then, with a little silvery lai*
she added, 'Nothing in this
Nothing under heaven.'"New A.*,*1
