This is because The endless chain letter, which crops up ever once in a while in all parts of the country against is in New Britain, This epistle, which often | shows up on a postal card, but ac-| cording ‘to postal authoritles usually | comes in a sealed envelope upon | which one cent postage must be col- | lected from the person $o whom it is| addressed, has again raised its head in | this city and ‘postal anxious to have it stopped. The letter preys on the minds of those who are inclined to be super- stitious. Publication of its contents is said to bring bad luck to the writer, so the reporter writing this expects to get up tomorrow morning and find the furnace is out and the landlord has raised the rent. The communication reads as fol- Jows: “Some smart fellow started this plan and 1 suppose the rest of the gmart fellows will have to keep it up. 1 am so superstitious that I am afraid that if I did not go along T might lose an ear or an eye or something. But at any rate I am among the othera.” Then follows a long list of names by which it is possible to trace the letter back to its source.

This chain was started by an American officer and should go around the world three times. Do not break the chain, for whoever does will have bad luck. Do it within 24 hours and count nine days and you will have good luck. With success for you and let's go smiling through 1924.” The chain has been broken in two places, two letter have heen intercept- ed, so New Britain probably will be visited by two earthquakes nine days hence, There is no law against forwarding these letters, although the system, which crops up every year or so, is discouraged by the postal department.
