Mus. Keep rhelr Promises.

Barnum would have hard sailing
down in Mexico. The Latin races do
not have the love for humbugs that Is
characteristic of Anglo-Saxons. II the
American is "bilked" he enjoys seeing
his neighbor go against the same
game but that is not true OF Mexican.
IL man advertises an attraction that
fails to produce 1t exactly as adver-
tised he gets into serious trouble in
Mexico. Theater-goers insist on hav-
ing all performances UP to specifica-
tions and go out of their way to see
the managers punished who attempt to
defraud the public. The sphere of tho
press agent is limited In that country.
Many managers who are not familiar
with the customs and laws of Mexico
have found themselves behind the bars
because they posted paper picturing
acts which were not reproduced faith
fully.

their attitude. could not see exactly
what they were doing. as I am short

me with something over their heads.
II turned out to be very large mush-
room, and they were pretending that
il was fairy's umbrella. I had no
measure with me, and before we got
home the mushroom had been Clipped
A good deal, owing to the children let

at least ten or twelve inches in diam

But the supposed record is soon
beaten. Our other correspondent has
found bigger mushroom. Writing
from North l.ent, he says:
II was looking for mushrooms yes
terlay morning, when came across

all together in a field. They all
seemed to run from ten inches to a

for some time l found one that
eclpsed all the others in size. took
1t home carefully and had it measured.
1t was just under thirteen inches
across. but was only three inches in
the stem. My wife and made good
meal off it."
