SEAM EN'S Sl'1'EItS1'1'1'IOx S. Minister .Aboard Ship is a Jonah Sign. With the advent of wireless tele- graphy there has come a supersti- tion that bad news may he warded off if the mast that is a part of the apparatus is patted thrice with the palm of the hand. "Co and ask the cook" --a sea- mae's inevitable reply to all irre- levant. questions --has been elabor- ated in the last year to "Go and ask the cook's sister," and it is re- lated that Capt. Turner of fire Lu- sitania went, so far recently as to alter the time-honored reply to, "Go and ask the ship's cat." A minister aboard ship has always been taken as a "Jonah sign" by seamen. In recent years, however, this superstition has been modified to a, certain extent. A young min- ister, the seamen believe, will not bring as much of a "Jonah" with hint as an old one. Men on the sailing vessels have alv.•ays held that craning or scratch- ing the mainmast would bring a long period of good weather. Men on the huge modern steam vessels now similarly believe that seratoh- in;; a smokestack with the linger - nal will insure continued fair wea- ther.
