Superstition of the . Katlvc
lllttclu of Australia.
The Native blacks of Australia
are (toped in gupeiv.Uion. A blai;lc
fellow will on no account go near
the spot where- another black has
been buried. He has a dt'op footod'
aversion to one particulur bird the
wagtail because, he eas," "him all
day talk, talk aloug a wblte feller,
tellum all about black f iler," add
no opportunity Is lost of killing
these little birds . . ..
Many tribes "bury" their dead by
sticking them up Into the forks of
trees and there leaving them till tbe
flesh has either dropped or been tak
en, leaving the boucs clean. J be be
hnnpa are then takun down, the larc-
er ones burled and tho smallest hand-
1 ea rouna as aeepsaues co nose sen-r.
Y related to the deceestd. Should
one black fellow wish the death of
I a rival or enemy he points tbe bone
at him. This niea.n that he takes
one of his lale relation s bones from
bis dilly bag and points It, In the
presence of witnesses, at tbe man he
wishes to got rid of, all tbe time
pouring forth threats and curses.
Strange as It n ay seem, tbe one
pointed at will often languish and
eventually die, perhaps la a month,
perhaps lu a year, for no sooner Is
the bone pointed than be makes up
his mind to die, and there la no sav
ing him.
How Unir Grows,
A single hair, which can support
a weight of two ounces, is so elactlc
that it may be stretched to oue-lfalrd
of IU entire length and then regain
tta former size and condition. Dr.
Plncus has measured the growth of
balr by cutting off circles about one
Inch in diameter from the heads of
healthy uie.i, and so comparing the
growth of tun patches wjlh that of
the rest cf the hair. He found that
the growth rate generally became
slower after cuttiug; that Jn same
cases the hair on the patches grew
at the same rate as the rest, but that
It never grew any faster.
The ordinary leugth of' the hair
on tbe head ranges between twenty-
two Inches and "about forty-five
Inches., the .latter being considered
unusually long. It has been calcu
lated that the ha'.r of the beard
grows at the rate of one line and a
half a week; this will give a length
of six and a half incnes in the course
of a year. For a man eighty years
of age, who has beeu a clean shaver
from early maturity, no lesa than
twenty-fceteu feci of beard must
have iaileu befote the ede of the
laur.
