Tho Man In tlm Moon.
Mnny superstitions hnvo liocn connected
ono tlmo mid nnother with tho man tn tho
moon, A well known German story tells
about tho'mnn who cut sticks on thoBnhbnth
and was caught up in the moon, fngoU nnd
all, nml thero stands to this dny. A Dutch
household myth accused the man In the
moon of stealing cnbbngcs on Christmas
ovo. Tho neighbors caught him just ns ho
wns walking on with n good supply, and
they "wished'1 him up iu tho moon. Ho
stands thero to this dny, bearing his load of
cabbages.
Northern mythology tolls nbout ft giant
who inhabits tho moon, nnd is suposed to
cnuso tho ebb and How of tho tide. When
ho stoops tho water Hows, and when ho stands
erect tho wntcr subsides again.
In Africa tho man iu tho moon is supposed
to hnvo incurred tho wrath of tho sun, nnd Is
in punishment carved by tho knife, tlmt is,
by tlio rays of tho latter. This continues
until tho whole of tho moon is cut nwny and
only a llttlo piece left, Tho moon Implores
tho sun to hnvo pity 011 him, nml lenvo this
morsel for his children. Tho sun grants his
request, nnd tho moon grows from tho llttlo
plcco until ut last it is a full moon. Then tho
tun begins carvlug again.

two lines, which como together In front and
gradually scparnto toward tho last of tho

leader flics at tho point where tho two lines

to tho last of ono of tho two lines; but moan
