  1. Lucky and Unlucky Signs

    Share Share Post
    If a person spits out when walking under a ladder he will have good luck.
    If there are two lights burning in the same room for two nights in succession someone will die in that house.
    If you tooth falls out and if you put it on your window-sill at night and if it is gone in the morning you will have good luck.
    If you see a white horse in the morning you will have good luck.
    If you drop a fork you will have company.
