A Queer Charm.

In many parts of Norway . the Chances of marriage or old maidenhood make the girls nse a strange love charm in order to know their fate. A maiden who desires this weaves a net of the finest hair, working ten minutes on a moonlight night, and she believes that if she does this successfully for thirty moonlight nights she will be married within three years. But woe to the girl who breaks the hairs she weaves with or tears holes In the net—she is decreed to be an old maid.
