No mat ter how hard he tried 'to get Jjmmy Rabbit into trouh'e, jimmy always managed to escape. Peter Wondered what the reason1 might be. And one t!ay he said to Jimmy: " . "Why is it that you're always able ,tu set out of a scrape?" ..- - "Don't you know?" Jimmy Rabbit '1 ,fh Left hind-footl'MrCrow repJied 1 briefly. ' - itskwl him. "I thought everybody knew that. . . Its because I'm "Oh, T kitow that !" said Peter Mink. "What I'd like to know is what makes you so lucky?" ! , "1 supposed everybody knew that"; too," Jimmy Rabbit' answered.' "It's because I have, the left' hind foot of a1 rabbit." ' . i' ' Peter ' Mink answered 'that, he didn't see what that had to do with being lucky, ' h "You ask anybody abo"ut it," Jim i;iy told him. "There's Mr. Crow, Romance in Origin Of Superstitioiis . By H. IRVING KljG. , ' Eaglestones. jt ..' The idea of an' eaglcstouc being, a Rood luck talisman is ea?ly trace able ,to the Greeks, whose ancient writers, frequently mention .it. The stone is a variety of argillaceous oxide of irojn, found generally in and has in it a moveable -kerna. The'! (creeks called them eaglestones from the belief that the eagle transported ihemj to her nest to facilitate the. . laying of eggs. Si Thomas Browne . in his "Vulvar Errors" f 1 64rVk sneaks of the caglestone as having medict-J ; nai properties ascribed to it by the ignorant. ' In these days the carry ing about of an eaglestone in one's , pocket is supposed to bring good luck ; Not long ago an 'English pa per stated that John D. Rockefeller, who Is not generally considered to i be of a superstitious turn of mind, habitually carried about with him an eaglestone "for' luck," This con necting up of the Oracle of Delphi with Standard Oil is certainly inter- . esting and if the statement regard- . ing Mr. Rockefeller is true .in his ' case the eaglestone seems to have ' "worked to a charm."

Everybody knows that one." . For once Peter Mink remembered the ord Jimmy had taught him when he was caught beneath the big log. , "Please!" he said. "I'd really like to know; Mr. Crow!" - - '; "Left hind-foot" Mr. Crow replied briefly., '"It's a rabbit's, you know; .aid there's nothing like 'cm to bring luck."' s That set Peter Mink to thinking. He coufdn't help wishing that he might have Jimmy's left hind-foot for himself. It ought to bring luck to him, he thought, just as it did to Jimmy Rabbit. y After Peter- Mink had thought1 the matter over for. some time he said to Jimmy - " .. "I wish you'd, come over to the creek with me. There's, something there that'T want to show you. Of course, it's a long way off; and may be your, mother wouldn't like to have you go so far from home." 1 11 come! Jimmy Rabbit said quickly; Maybe you d better ask your mother first," Peter suggested. Hut Jimmy Rabbit shook his head. "That wouldn't do any good," he f plied. "Let's he on our way I"- So Peter Mink started off toward' the creek, with Jimmy close behind Ililll'. t At last the"y reached the bank of the creek. The wnter was Iow."Aik3 before them was- a stretch 'of mud. which looked dry and firm. There were a few weeds growing in it. And it certainly-looked harmless enough. "What is it you're, going to show ine?" Jimmy asked. , ' ' I'Ollow me! said Peter Mink. You u see pretty soon wnat .it is. Audi he jumped off the bank and landed lightly on his feet on the mud-flat, and started on again. It never once entered Jimmy Rab bit's head that there" eould be any danger. So he jumped off the bank, too. And, to his great, surprise, his legs sank entirelyout of sight in the mud. ' You see. he was at least four times lif'avier than Peter .fink. And when he landed on the . thjn; 'sun-baked crust that covered , the mutT-flat Jie had broken through it. " Jimmy-Rabbit had a terrible feel ing that he was going right down until the mud closrd over his head. Help!" he. shrieked. "Hclpi Help!" .' '. But Peter Mink" walked straight on. lie never once, looked arouno; And thoujrh. Timmv Rabbit called and called, he couldn t seem to make Peter Mink hear him.
