"It isn't," replied the friend. "You always remember the car3 we meet mn the curves or turns, but you think nothing of the cars we meet on the straight road."

Hern is the coursy; ot superstition; j having the exceptions impressed on 1 the mind.

To this the number thirteen, the $2 bill, the broken mirror, and the? t black cat, owe their position in the ' world. To it also is credited the belief that all preachers' sons turn out' i batlly when statistics show that the average ranks higher in the world than the sons of almost any other. profession. Aleo tbe belief that bad bows make ;the best nien is i;ast.(i upon ti,e Same reasoning from striking expeditions. j All such beliefs, from the one that j by looking at the back of another per- son's head you can make him turn around, to the conviction that you never should cut a baby's toe nails or jit will be a stay-at-home and never travel, have their basis in vague con- nection oetwecn unrelated events ana m str.King coincidences. The average person firmly believes the weather man is wrong as many . . . . .. times as he is risht. Yet statistics compiled over a period of several years show that he is right nine- tenths of the time. Put the man who has had two sue cessive Fourths of July spoiled by rain when lie has been promised fair i weather will never believe that. The only basis for judgment is upon statistics gathered over a long period.
