feet in sandals of her own making (out of the
leg OF an old boot, simply a strip of leather
for the bottom of the foot laced over
and over with strings) and her
head and shoulders always enveloped in
long black shawl. l do her injustice; she is
useful in one respect, she watches for cent?
pedes and tarantulas as a cat does for mice;
and the delight she takes in torturing the

pulling their legs off, and at last grinding
them into the ground, is characteristic.
Having once gained the confidence Of Mexi-
can aristocrats, and the entree to their
homes, one finds them most charming peO-
pie, generous and hospitable to a fault; but
must remember to make due allowance for
the extravagant gallantry of southern races.
For instance, if mine host says-as he al
ways does-"my casa (house) is yours, every
thing is at your disposition, this is your
home and l am your guest"
you are not expected to take him
literally at his word, and to come in and
take possession, but must have some equally
polite reply at your tongues end. Ii you
express admiration for his horse his watch,
the coat upon his back-anything but his
wife or daughter-he Immediately SAYS:
Take it, it is yours" They love to wine
you and dine you and load you with eXtrav
agant gifts, always expecting an equal return
in some form or other. And then they will
pet you to an unprecedented degree, and
open their hearts to you so that you may
read the innermost recesses of Mexican char
acter like an open book and a vastly inter-
esting study it is. But it is well to be care
full that the fur is never "smoothed the
wrong way" The sharpest of claws are
under this suave exterior, depths of passion
and anger and jealousy and revenge past all
sounding; and daggers and pistols are
uncomfortably common, even among the
women. FANNIE b. WARD.
