All boys niul girls know that next
Wednesday , Oct. 81 , will bo All Hallow
Uvd , though most of thorn corrupt'lta
minio to "IJojly Evo.1 They know it is
a night of mirth nnd mystery specially
ilovotcd to mischief , fun , incantations ,
divinations , charm ? and spells , but very
few of thorn understand its realslgnlli-
canic ; , or caif toll whence it duriveSnUa
name.
It ? ? many conturipg since the church ,
llndinir it impossible , from the great
and constantly increasing multitude of
the saints , to sot apart a separate day
for each one. , decreed that Nov. 1 should
henceforth bo kept as a day iu honor
f all the saints and that it should be
tnown as All Hollow Mass or All Saints'
Day , and that thu night of Oct. 81 , 1m-
ncdiatoly preceding it , should thord-
ftor bo kept as a vigil and bo known as
\ll Hallow Eve , these occasions being
till observed in the Catholic , Episcopal
nd Lutheran churches.
From its first origination Hallow Eve
! ius been invested with a peculiarly
nystic cliaractor. As there is nothing
n the church celebration of the ousti
ng clay of All Saints to justify those
ungular ideas and customs associated
ivlth Hallow Eve , and as none of them
: ire of a religious character , we may
'nstly regard them as relics of pagan
times.
In the north of Europe in all ages
and countries Hallow Eve has been
deemed the occasion par excellence for
divining the answer to that momentous
question , which absorbs so large a share
of the thoughts of romantic young mon
and maidens who is to marry , whomV
The moans employed to gain this much-
dcsirod information are as quaint and
curious as they are numerous and
varied. For this purpose every time
and every country has had its own
charms and spells peculiar to itself , and
they have furnished an almost inexhaustible -
haustiblo theme to folk poets and com'
pliers of folk-lore.
Those of Scotland have boon most
graphically described by that greatest
of all poets of the people , Robert
liurns. In his poem of "Halloween , "
ho has given u A most vivid account of
moro than half a score of hallow eve
charms and Spells peculiar to the
Scottish peasantry.
In a voryjold .book called "Yo True
\rto to Reado the Future , " I llnd the
following : "If a maid would know yo
name of yo maii/sho is to marry lot her
on All Il'ulloft Even , steal out to a lime
kiln and throw itclue of blue yarn , still
holding to ye otiior end. Presently yo
end in yo kijn. will be sharply pulled
Then yo maid i must say 'who hold ? '
Whereupon yo'voico of her future hus
band Will prbriouhco his name both yo
Christian and'yukir ' name. ' " The only
obstacle to the successful por/ormanco
of this BpqllijhQ / , dilliculty of ttiuli
an old limo kIp } ; ,
Water , nuts' and apples bear a promi
nent part in the spells and charms of
Hallow Evo. A quaint T > ld book o
charms , published in Edinburg in 1690.
entitled "Old Father Times JJundlo of
Faggots Newly Bound Up. " declares
that an infallible means of getting a
view of year future husband and wife is
to go to bed on Hallow Eve with a glass
of water , in which a small sliver of
wood has boon placed , standing on
a table by your bedside. In the night
you will dream of falling from a bridge
into a river and of being rescued by
your future wife or husband , whom you
will see as distinctly as though viewed
with waking oyes. This charm is thus
alluded to by the Englit.li poet Gay :
Last hnllnw cvo I longed my love to see ,
And tried a spell to call her up to mo.
With wood uud w.Ucr standing by tny sldo
I dreamed a dream and saw my own sweet
bride.
In a folk-lore book called "Yo Mys
teries of yo Wytchccraft , " which is the
oldest in my collection , there is given a
charm "By which a maid may know if
yo man she" loves bo true. " To perform
this the maid is directed to pluck at
midnight on all hallow eve , two monthly
roses with long stems , naming one for
herself and the other for her lover. She
must then go directly to her sleeping
room without speaking to anyone , and
kneeling beside her bed , must twine the
stems of the two roses together and
then repeat the following lines , meanwhile -
while gazing intently upon the rose
named for her lever :
Twine , twine and intertwine.
Let my love bo wholly inino.
If bis love bo kind and true ,
Dccpor grow his rose's hue.
If her swain bo faithful , the rolor of
the rose roprcsohting him will grow
darker and moro intense.
Of all the hallowevo spells and
charms associated with nuts , one
of the oldest is that which prevails -
vails in some of England's northern
counties , and which is to the affect that
if a young man or woman will go at
midnight on Hallow Eve to a walnut
tree and walk 'around it three times ,
crying out each tune "Lot him ( or her )
that is to be my true love bring me some
walnuts , " the future wife or husband
will be neon in the tree gathering its
fruit. The poet Gay thus refers , in his
"Pastorals , " to this custom :
"Last Hullo w Eve I sought a walnut tree
In hojKis thut'l'inS' true love's face might
see. i ' ' "
Three times limited , three times I walked
apace , is no
Then in the .tree * , I saw my true love's
face. " .
J ( „
A very oldj > Hallow Eve divination ,
formerly much practiced by English
rustics to tell frqm what quarter of the
compass the future husband or wife will
come , is performed by stealing out un
observed nt midnight , plucking a small
look of hair fronronn's head and casting
it to the bredzcu Whatever direction it
is blown toword pa believed to IMS the
location of Urn future matrimonial part
ner. This diminution IH also mentioned
by Gay iu his "Pastorals" as follows :
"I pluck this loch of hair from out my
head ,
To tall whence comes the ono that I shall
wed ,
Fly , sUlron hair , fly all the world around
Until you roach tbo spot where my true
love is found. "
There can bo no question that many
of the obtiorvnncoH of Hallow Eve are
derived from those of the old Roman
festival of Pomona , when divinations
and the consulting of oracles and onions
were universally practiced.
