Of the same work, and they are so referred to in the Notes, and in the common Index which appears at the end of this book. The earlier collection deals almost entirely with beliefs not of a zoological or botanical nature, while the later one comprises only the folk-lore of animals and plants. In the chapter on the causes and cure of warts, con tained in Current Superstitions, many items are recorded which might more logically have been retained for insertion in the part now issued, had it not at the time seemed advisable to make the chapter as complete as possible.
