Explanation

of the

TREE OF FATE.


Observe.—That you may either pick a number, blind-folded, amidst the leaves of this valuable tree, or throw for them with dice; if you pick for them and get among the branches, or in the blank leaves, it shows a speedy misfortune or disappointment at hand. The mark number of 1000 shows a great advancement in life, if you are so fortunate as to hit on it.
