los visitantes.
Cuando va empezaba a ano-
checer y volvia para Ell hotel
me encontraba siempre una mu-
jer de extraordinaria hermosura
que iba acompanada de un hon.
bre joven y bien parecido. Este
parecia ir siempre contrariado
con su compa1era juzgar por
su rostro muy serio y por los
ademanes con que Sc hallaba.
No Sc por que aquella mujer no
me agradaba y me hacia sentir
hacia ella repulsion.
Una de las tarde la vi sola,
me extrano que no la acompa-
nara el que 20 creia su amante,
y en- clio ful pensando todo el
caminO.
Al siguiente dia cuando sail
del hotel me infermaron que
muy cerca de ALI un hombre sc
habia suicidado. Fui al sitio del
suceso y pude yer al desgracia-
do; al reConocerle senti una
emocion muy grande, el suicida.

a la desconocida.

entusiasmo.
Cuando Ell rumor sc hubo
apagado por complete, senti de-
tras de mi una carcaja que me
dejo helada el alma, una car
Icajada que hacia tempo como
cia, la misma que hab1a dido
siempre responder a las des-
gracias. Volvi ell rostro y me
quede mudo de espanto. LA
mujer que as1 sc reia era la mis-
ma que con Ell suicida Sc pa
seaba!
No puie estar mas tempo en-
aquel sitio, me fui de ALI sim
tiendo como un miedo muy
grande. Al dia siguiente salia
de la Exposition sintiendo to,
davia en- mis- oidos aquella risa
Undesirable.
DeSde entonces cuando oigo
reir a una mujer no puedo sino
acordarme de aquella.
La relacion nos parecio algo
inverosimil, pero nos dejo bas-
tante impresionados. Para dist

LA RISA

Eran los dias de Mateo. En-
su casa estabamos reunidos tres
de sus antiques condiscipulos,
que habiamos sido invitalos al
pequeflo banquete con que cele-
braba su natallc1O.
Paso Ell almuerzo entire ale
gria v expansiones propias de
gente joven; al llegar ell te nos
propuso Mateo ir a tomarlo al
kiosco de la terraza.
Estabamos muy alegres, re-
cordabamos los detalles del CO
legio; cuando Mateo fue casti-
gado por reirse muy fuerte una
vez que ell maestro explicaba
una leccion de Historic.
Y a proposito de la risa, nun
ca he podido dejar de reirme, nj
aun en- los cases mas graves.
Esto puede ser mania Q enfer-
medad, 10 cierto es que por NADIA
me rio y que aunque quiera no
puedo evitarlo.
Bien, le interrumpio Carlos;
riete, que la risa es siempre
agradaDle sobre todo cuando sa-
ae del alma.
ST, afadi 20; es muy agrada.
bic reirse; cuando menos es me-
jer que llorar.
Enrique estubo callado mien-
tras as1 hablabamos.
~ til por que callas? mo quie-
res decir NADIA de la risa? lie pre-
gunto Mateo.
La risa, la risa, dijo Enrique,
depende de como sea. Aun sien-
to en- mis- oidos la risa de una
mujer, que me producia escalo-
frios.

DIRE moria de hambre V ante su
miseria Sc revelaba a aceptar
los consuelos de un sacerdote,
tres hijos del desgraciado llora-
ban todOs alrededor del lecho
Las mujeres tambien llora-
ban. Los hombres manifesto
ban su dolor los mas con ell ceno
muy fruncido; otros con lagri-
mas. I'm medic de aquella pc
ma general sc oy0 una carcajada
de muler que hiZo temblar al
audltorlo; tOdos volvieron el ros-
tro busCando a la autora que va
Sc marchaba cerrando con vio-
lencia al salir, ell palco en- que
estaba. Trate deaveriguar quien
era la mujer aquella, no pude,
pero su risa quedo muy clara en-
mis- oidos Y me impresiono por
mucho tempo.
Mi amigo Narciso X. sc en-
barcaba en- Ell Havre para los
Estados Unidos y me suplic0
fuera a despedirlo, asi pude en-
cOntrarme en- Ell muelle mezCla

AdemaS de los que viajaban
por recreO, aquel vapor llevaDa
una emigration de hombres que
iban en- busCa de trabajo. Ell

m ujeres, sus hijos, sus madres.
Cuan1o ell buque salia todos
lloraban, daba mucha pena Or
dos lamentOS de los que sc iban
y de los que sc quedaban. En-

una rlsa tuerte de mujer que

En- cuanto a mi, senti que NE

From the most ancient times the
amethyst has been favorite orna-
ment. Nor has its value been bas
cd upon its ornamental properties
alone. Pliny is authority for the
statement that the name of the
stone is derived from Greek
arnestheistos power to prevent
drunkness- In this connection it
may be stated that the divinity of
the amethyst is Neptune. The
question whether the selection is
merely coincidence or based on the
god 5 association with the waters
and kindred affairs, is one of the
enigmas whose answer is lost in
the gloom of antiquity. The mere

Corsicana. Texas, June g.

who lives on the Trinity river in
this county, thinks he has found
the way to kill the boil weevil. He
declares that the little red ant so
common, and especially about
decaying wood. will do it. and do
it effectively. Junius few days
ago, in order to attract these ants
from their homes to the cotton,
went through a five-acre patch that
he knew to be infested with the
boil weevil, and here and there put
a few drops of ordinary nolasses
on the cotton leaves. In a short
while ants had taken possession of
the field and not live weeyil was
to be found. Flowers brought
pint bottle of the dead pests to
Corsicana with him Saturday. and
he declares that he watched the
ants at work on the weevil and that
they frequently followed the weevil
into the punctured square and
literally bearded the lion in his
den.'
