FEARED BAD LUCK PERIODS Mm fielleved That Evil Patoe Ruleo WtfW During the Lut Fhra Day* of Y ?ar. Tka Aztec calendar consisted of ? year of 18 months of 20 day* each, and a closing period of Ave days. Into which It was believed all the bad lock of the year was crowded. No one started upon a Journey during these Ave days, for fear ooort misfortune would befall him; no woodcutter ven tured Into the forest to hew wood during this period, lest wild beasts should devour him; the houses were left ungwept; the housewives made no pottery vassals; children So un fortunate as to be bora an one of these live days wore by that very fact predestined to misfortune for the root of their Uvea. The next, and among the Aztecs the oaly time period higher than the year, was the xlhultlmolpia, of cycle of 83 years. It was held that at the dose of one of these periods would some day coma the destruction of the world. On the last night of tha xthultl rnolpla Area were extinguished on the hearths, and tha inhabitants of Tsoochtltlah (City of Mexico) moved out of the dty and took up positions on the surrounding hlflfe, waiting feverishly either for the deeti action of the world or, in the event of sun rise, the dawn of another xlhultlmol pla. Once the una had arisen, how ever, great ware the rejotetage. fires were rekindled end the crisis was over for another 82 years.

It is also asserted that these greater and lesser displays correspond with the Increase and decrease of spats on the sua. The phenomenon Is generally manlfeefiM in the following way: A 0m light appears on the horizon Alertly after twHIght. and gradually > seam as the shape of an arch, having i pale yellow color, with Its cum ave ride turned earthward. From this irch streams of light shoot - forth, passing from yellow to green sad then to brilliant violet.

Massenet and sold that he had seen his photograph In a paper and had read that he was "a clever pianist." Would M. Massenet play a few pieces at a little party? He would be well peld of course! The world-famous musician was greatly amused. "Certainly I" ho re plied. "What night?" "Thursday." "Thursday? What a pity! I am en gaged on Thursday. But I can give the address ad a friend?an excellent pianist, who can piny all the modern dances beautifully." 80 saying, Massenet gars the un fortunate newly rich the address of? Salnt-Saens!
