Poems OF MEXICO.

Men Who Work Hard for RidIcuIOusIy

Speaking of the peOn, think to
most travellers in Mexico one of the
most astonishing things must be ap-
parent differences between accounts
read of his laziness and shiftlessness
and what one really sees of him in the
city or country. l should say, from
several months observation of them,
that the average peon far exceeds our
best negro workers of the South in in
dustry and energy. On the streets
you much Oftener see them on brisk
walk, or, as in the case of the carga-
dores, even on trot, than on the
5louching gait of most Of our Southern
colored laborers. The peon is more ig
nOrant than the latter, due to his iso-
lation from higher civilization, but ]
would unhesitatingly say that his nat
ural intelligence is greater. He works
for smaller wages than the negro, get
ting on an average about eighteen
cents a day in the country. He is
frugal-as a rule little fonder of his
pulque or tequila than the negro is OF
his whisky. but also, as a rule, faithful
and goOd-natured.
In the country they will often be met
long before daylight driving their
burros or carrying on their own backs
burdens into a market town twenty or
thirty miles away. The load they
carry and distances they frequently
make with them are almost incredible.
have known one peon to carry on his
back, by means of the peculiar pack OF

their alert, polite ways. They are
very susceptible to kindness, and equal
lv quick to resent severity of language

Walter, my boy, do you realize that
each year the grave is nearer you
than ever before-that unless you are
active, the season of life will close be-
fore even nalf your salf-alloted con-
tract will have been performed, unless,
liIIetoo many people, you have no aim
no hope-no ambition beyond picking
your teeth after dinner? Half of the
world-yes, Walter, more than half
go to the receptiOn-roOm of eternity
without any object in life-as drift
wood floats down the stream. guided
by the current, and lodging against
the first obstruction. And what is
driftwood, my boy? Once in awhile
a good stick of timber is found there
in, but it is generally more work to
haul it out, clean off the sand and
mud, than it is wor tn; and more time
and tools are spoiled in making it in
to what you wish than the stick will
ever bring, even in an active market.
Have purpose, my boy. Live for
something. Make up your mind what
you will be, and come up to the mark.
or die in the attempt. This is land
where there is no stint to ambition.
All have an equal chance. Blood tells
pluck wins-honor and integrity
well directed will scale the highest
rock. and bear heavy load to its top.
Donot start off in life without knowing
where you are going Load for the
game you are hunting. 1t is as easy
to be a man as a mouse. 1t is as easy
TO have friends as enemies-it is easier
to have both than to go through lie
like tar bucket under a wagon,
humping over stumps, or swinging
right and left, without will OF your
own. Every one can be something.
There is enough to do. There are for
ests to fell-rivers to explore-cltles to
build-railroads to construct-lnven-
tions vet to be studied out-ideas to ad-
vance-men to convert-countries to
conuuer-women to love-otfices to be
filled-wealth and position to acquire
a name to VIVA Heaven to reach. Yes,
nv boy, there is lots of work to do. and
YOU and we must do our share.

Faults of Many Mothers.

American women of all classes are,
as "a rule, sinfully negligent of some Of
the duties which pertain to health,
especially exercise in the open air.
The excuse that their many cares en-
gross them, and that they, in conse-
quence, have but little opportunity for
leaving their homes, is scarcely sufti-
cient The number who actually can
not enjoy, each day, an hours outing,
must be small indeed, even among the
class forced to work the hardest. Not
only do many women fail in this re-
spect in their duty to themselves, but
their young children suffer in conse-
quence Of the same neglect. From one
weeks end to another, during the
winter, not a few of them keep their
little ones in overheated rooms, if not
huddled around the kitchen stove. and
the result is we find them, as spring
approaches, weak, puny and ailing.
In such families colds, coughs, sore
throats and the like are common affec-
tions. There is scarcely a day during
the coolest season when even the baby
can not be safely taken out of doors.
Mothers should understand that upon
the daily enjoyment of fresh and open
air depends. in a great degree. the
health of their little ones, as well as
themselves; it is, in fact, absolutely in
dispensable to'the well-being of ALL

a COURAGEOUS BOY.


With tho Help of Dog He Oatrides .
storm and Saves Vessel.
At Bourbon, the most neg ,ected port
in the French Indies, a number of YES
sells rode at anchor. Suddenly "a tidal
wave was signaled and a cannon
shot conveyed the order for all vessels
to leave the port The crews hastily
regained their vessels and in less than
ha an hour all ships but one had left
the port The one which remained
despite the order was a large brig in
ballast, on whose deck not living
soul could be seen. A second shot
was fired and the brig slowly pivoted,
and with tapping sails made for the
open sea- An hour later it was dis
covered that the entire crew of the
brig had been detained on shore and
the only living creatures on board were
a lad fifteen years old and the cap
tain's dog.
In order to obey the order twice
given the lad must have let the anchor
chain slip and cut the hawser, but where
could he get the strength to hold the
helm against a cyclone? Three days
passed and ali the vessels had returned
to port but the brig, and fears gained
ground. Suddenly on the morning OF
the fourth day a naked mast was seen
against the horizon. Like a stick at
first, it grew longer, and then a hull
appeared All the sails were furled
and the brig-for it was the brig--was
sailing under masts and cOrdage only,
kept on her course by her little iib
hoisted one-third high. A quarter of
an hour later a tug was at its side.
The brig was brought back after more
than three days terrible strife with the
Elements.
After seeing no one come the boy,
knowing that to stay was destruction,
had let the anchor slip, sawed the
hawser, and grasping the helm set her
head for the sea Slipping a rope
with a running knot larboard and
5tarboard to prevent sudden lurches,
he remained at his post with the dog,
sleeping and waking, nearly one hun
dred hours.
The colonists raised a subscription
for him and he was sent to the marine
school, whence he came out ar officer.

ABOUT OuARRELiN0.
It Is the Second Word Which Fans the
Angry Spark Into Flame.

It Is the Second Word Which Fans the
Angry Spark Into "A Flame.
The first words of quarrel, which
are generally too trifiing to be remem-
bered. are like the few sparks that
fall upon the dry leaves of the forest.
The angry retOrt is the puff OF wind
that blows them into flame. Then
the mischief is done past recall. Then
two hearts. friendly few moments
before, are full of anger. Then words
are spoken which may be forgiven, but
h 'dly forgotten, and the friendship is
seldom quite as it was before Hence
the old saying: 1T is the second
word that makes the quarrel.
That second word usually wounds
the pride or the self-love OF
him to whom it is addressed 1t may
take a form that implies a doubt of the
others veracity-a dire Offense to any
one not wholly debased. Often it in
sinuates low. small, unworthy motive.
Sometimes the maddening word is a
truth, as when Brutus told Cassius he
had an Itching palm to sell his offices
for gold" Cassius was so enraged
that he cried:
Il an itching palm!
You know that you are Brutus that speak this,
Or, by the gods this speech we're else your
last"
Ugly truths must sometimes be
spoken. but not when two persons are
bound by interest and duty to avoid
quarreling.
Another most irritating retort is one
which attributes cowardice Co rage
and truthfulness being the very foun-
dations of respectable character. a re-
mark which conveys an intimatiOn of
a want of either is a pure provocative
of quarrel.
There are tones in the voice which
can not be described. but every read
er, unless he is high class saint, has
used them in the early moments of a
quarrel. The most innocent thing in
the world may be said in such a way
as to rasp and humiliate, particularly
if it is accompanied by certain look
out of the eyes.
Human beings, old or young, never
appear in so poor and mean light as
when they are quarreling. A family
quarrel is among the most sorrOwful
and vulgar of all displays of human
infrmity.
Among people living in the same
house, sitting three times day at the
same table, being together in the even
ing, working together in the daytime,
all possessing nervous system and a
tender self-love, it must needs be that
otfense come. Irritating words
will be unintentionally spoken; ex-
pected attentions will be omitted; the
material of quarrel will frequently
be created. Two things should be
borne in mind by every inmate: one is,
that it takes two persons, at least, to
make quarrel; the other, that the
quarrel usually dates from the second
word.
Tom-What did you take my bat for?
Charles-I didn't take your bat, and
you know it.
TOm-YOu are liari
In this case Charles made the quar-
rel, because he met the merely irritat-
ing first word with a grossly insulting
second. Put down the brakes hard up
on the second word.-Youth's Com
pan ion.

INDIAN PRlZE-FIGHTERS.
How sullivsn's Art Is Represented in the
Land of the MnPnI

How Sullivan's Art Is Represented in the
Land OF the MoguI.
The professional Indian boxers are
known as jetties. name derived from
the peculiar contrivance worn by them
upon the right hand. This consists of
kind OF cestus made of buffalo
horn, with four sharp knobs upon
1t resembling exaggerated knuckles.
Near the little finger is a fifth projec-
ton OF greater prominence and keen
ness than the others. 1t is worn on
the right hand between the lower
joints and the main knuckles, the fin
gers being passed through a narrow
opening below the raised points, of
sufilclent size to receive them when
the fist is doubled.
Ii 1t were placed directly over the
kuuckles it is very evident that a blow
directed with the full force of an ath-
letic arm would, in all probability,
crush the skull of the unfortunate at
whom it was aimed. Placed in the
manner described the wearer is
obliged to be very chary in the
dellverance of full arm
blow, as the conclusion would be very
likely to cause dislocation of the hand.
Instead, therefore, of hitting in the
usual style in vogue among English
and American pugilists, the blows are
delivered perpendicularly and as the
knots are sure to make a deep cut and
10 20. =
never any question as to who is enti-
tied to the claim of first blood.
In a few minutes two of these men
stepped into the arena. They were
magnificent specimens of manhood,
neither very stout nor very muscular
but well-knit, splendidly proportional
frames. Added to this was a natural
grace and gent!emanly department.
Bowling low to the Rajah. they took
their places in the center of the ring
and put themselves in position for the
combat. Approaching each other,
they held up and crossed their left
arm; then, quickly stepping back, they
made various motions with their
hands, or, as we would express it,
SPARED for an opening They
shifted their positions with great
activity, watching like hawks for
an opportunity to deliver blow, never
once allowing their attention to be di-
verified in any manner. Several passes
made with lightning-like rapidity were
neatly parted, and we were greatly
puzzled to know which displayed the
greatest amount of science, so equally
were they matched.
AT length one of them, assuming the
offensive, pressed his antagonist back
ward few feet and, quick as flash,
delivered a stunning blow Oh the cheek
which laid it open to the bone. Sud-
denly the wounded athlete ducked, and,
grasping his antagonist by the legs,
lifted him high in the air. The latter
dealt him another blow, this time upon
the crown of the head, but, nothing
daunted, he threw his man, and, as he
arose, struck him a terrific blow in the
face, which tumbled him over in a
heap. Like cat he recovered his
feet and closed with the other. Then
followed shower of blows which so
disfgured the pugilists that their faces
were hardly recognizable. Calcutta
