Ob, dear, oh, dear.” All the other bushes began to sway and sigh, too, “Oh, dear, oh, de—" and WISHING from the bent bush made all the oth- ers stand very still Presently the little low bush stood upright. “You cun almost believe It is summer,” It sald, “Even with the cold winds blowing over me I did not seem to feel the chill, for the brook made me think so hard of summer that I could almost hear the birds singing In the trees.” “She must be quite crazed by the cold,” whispered one bush to another. “Poor thing, to think of summer, with all the ice and cold, one must have lost his mind indeed.” “Oh, no, I am not mad, nor have I lost my mind,” answered the little bush. “You just bend over close to the icy covering of the brook and lis- ten to its song ’ “It Is dancing and singing all about summer, and 1 do believe it does not { know a thing about the cold out here. | It will make you forget It, too, sis ters.

Not a word did it sing of the cold, bleak winter. The wind blew and the snow fell above them and over them, too, but still all of the bushes kept close to the brook and listened to Its song.

These superstitions are merely sur vivals from the serpent-worship of our far-off ancestors, a cult which persists | among civilized man today in the form of these and many other current super. stitions. The Idea of the curative properties of a snakeskin Is inherited directly, it would appear, from the con- nection of the snake with Aesculaplus, the Greek god of medicine.
