Or san Anionia Light
While in Mexico tried hard to find
out how they made the lovely birds on
cards which they offered for sale on the
streets A friend took me to the house
of one of these artists. 1t was a little
howell, where he sat on the mud floor and
toiled. But when he heard us coming
he put away all his work and would not
let US see it. He was an Indian, with
brown skin and black, straight hair. He
wore ragged clothes and had an old
blanket to keep him warm at night
Poor as he was, no money would tempt
him to show us the secret process he
had learned from his father, which had
been kept in the family for hundreds of
years
Great skill is required to produce a
perfect picture. First, the Indian traces
on the card the outlines of the body of
the bird III wax, just enough for the
feathers to stick to. Then he begins at
the lower part and places them on, one
at a time, one row tapping over the
other as slater lays states. lie works
very slowly and patiently. Perhaps
this is the secret of his perfect work,
and the reason that no other people
have been able to equal him. The re-
suit is a bird that looks as though it
might sing or fly. The eyes are made
with small glass beads, and the bill and
feet are painted so nicely that they APP
pear to be part of the bird. Then he
paints twig or branch for it to rest on,
or makes one from feather, and his
work is done.

1t is sometimes q matter of considera-
BILE difficulty to train horse to run to
wagon 1t is first taught to take
position under the harness. One Of the
men takes the animal and leads it be-
meath the harness, when it is suddenly
dropped on its back. The effect is some
times electrical. The horse will rear
and snort as though ito and demons
were on top of it. lut fter going
through this performance ior week
the novelty wears off, the right sub
sides and the only thing left to do is to
teach the animal to move out of his
stall quickly when the alarm is struck.
This is done by frequently tapping
the gong with stick and prodding the
horse at the same time. It's acute mind
is not long in connecting cause and eff
feet, and it shortly learns to Jump for
the wagon, whether lying or standing.
1t is very important to make the horse
appreciate the necessity of getting to the
wagon as fast as his legs can carry him,
and one that Jagged and had to be led
out of the stall would frequently
cause disastrous delay in getting
the wagon out. Every minute
after the gong strikes may be worth
$4,000 in property destroyed by fire.
About month is usually required to
teach a green horse to become thor.
oughly competent in an engine house
by that time they understand the the
DRY of the department, and after that
all they need is practice. There are
man little circumstances daily and
regularly occurring with which an old
tire-horSe will become entirely familiar,
and expect, and watch and appreciate,
as though it were human being. The
horses purchased by the department
cost on an average $3.50, but at the end
of year they are worth fully tire,
times that amount. The average lie
of such horse after it goes to the on
CINE is about eight years.

APrettyWOman'S Secret.

Fear of discovery, when she resorts to
false hair and dyes, is source OF con-
slant anxiety to her. The very persons
from whom she most desires to hide the
waning of her charms are the ones most
likely to make the discovery. But there
Is no reason why she should not regain
and retain all the beauty of hair that was
her pride in youth. Let her use AYERS
HAIR VIGoR, and, not only will her hair
cease to fall out, but new growth will
appear where the scalp has been denuded;
and locks that are turning gray, or have
actually grown white, will return to their
pristine freshness and brilliance of color.
AYERS HAIR VIGoR cures
Hereditary Badness.
GEORGE MAYER. Fldtonid, Texds,was
bald at % years Of age, as his ancestors
had been for several generations. One
bottle Of HAIR VIGoR started a growth OF
soft, downy hair all over his scalp, which
soon became thick, long, and vigorous.
