Some Mexican superstitions.

It is believed that the murderer who has
slain his victim with sword or dagger will
escape if the body falls upon its side or back
but if the body falls face downward, then the
murderer surely soon will be captured and
put to death This belief is said to be SC
firmly rooted among the people Of northeast
ern Mexico that when murdered man falls
upon his face his slayer makes no effort to
escape, and even sometimes voluntarily sur
renders himself to justice. II bride, while

Spring cashmeres of delicate gray, reseda,
fawn and rush green shades are deliberately
embroidered in colored silks and metals on
the draped front Of the corsage and skirt.
Very sheer wooden stuffs for spring and sum-
mer gowns are woven sleazily in straight
threads like yelling and bunting, and there
are also many canvas like goods as well as
heavier twilled serges. Summer camel's hair
Of stylish color is bordered with emEroid-

The genuine mutton leg sleeves, much larger

Two Remarkable Parrots,

Socorro, New Mexico, boasts Of two par
rots, gifted with more than ordinary intelli-
gence Golden Days tells how one of these
parrots sings to the accompaniment Of a
piano. A party Of friends were recently
gathered at the residence of the young lady
who owns the parrot, and there the parrot
was brought into prominence. The bird, as
soon as it was brought into the room, COM
menced to whistle a popular tune. After
whistling this tune three times over, one of
the company suggested that the tune be
changed, whereupon the parrot stopped
quickly, and, turning on the young man,
cried "Chestnutsl" The young lady then
began to play on the piano, and the bird,
after listening awhile, ruffled up the feathers
on his head and sang " TheLast Rose of Sum-
mer" and Home Sweet Home" The voice
was rather too shrill to sound pleasant, but
the words could be distinctly heard. The
rival parrot Of Socorro is owned by hotel
keeper. He perches in front of the hotel, on
high pole, and sings "Molly Darling" about
half his waking hours. He also has an ex-
tensive vocabulary, and can repeat long SEN
fences after several hearings Both these
parrots are from southern Mexico and are
very valuable

In addition to the decorative hair pins are

or any other diminutive blossoms. Decora-

only such colors as will harmonic with the
