Scudder, Dr. John

"Dr. Scudder's Tales for Little Readers, About the Heathen."

He will also be at variance with others, and endure
many sufferings. Should he be born under the planet Mars, he will be
full of anxious thoughts, be imprisoned, and oppressed with fear from

If a person dreams that a monkey has bitten him, he will die in six
months; or if he dreams that bedbugs, in large numbers, are creeping
over his body to bite him, he will die in eight days. Should he dream
that a dog has bitten him, he will die in three years; or should he
dream that a dead person has appeared to him and spoken to him, he will
die immediately.
If a man has a little head, he will become rich. If he has a large head,
he will be poor. If his forehead is wide, he will live a hundred years.
If he has a small neck, he will be a murderer. If the second toe is
long, he will be a bad man. If a woman has curly hair, she will not
prosper. If her nose is long, she will have a good disposition. If her
ear is wide, she will tell falsehoods. If she has a mole on her nose,
she will be subject to anger; if on her lips, she will be learned; if on
the eyebrows she will be cunning.
