SENORITAs.
Traditions and Habits of the Young
 Women of Mexico

Traditions and Habits of the Young
 Women of Mexico
 The senorita is word with which to canjure in Spanish speaking lands and the Mexican senorita is not inferior in charms to her Spanish sister. Tn fact. most of the upper class of Mexnco Is l-distinctly Spanish in appearance and bearing. Often, however, there is a slight mixture of Indian blood in the
 white race'' of Mexico, which very rarely detracts from the charm of the senorita.
 Senorita signifies in Spanish a young, unmarried lady.
 In the past the ideas of Mexico with
 respect to women, and especially young, unmarried ladies, have been more Moor fish than anything else. And these ideas prevail still to a great extent. Therefore, the habits of Mexican wo- men are very different from those of
 women in the United Statees or Eng | land. On account of excluding women of all ages as much as possible from appearing alone in the public streets,
 and of more or less isolating them with in their own family, there grew up in
 Spain and in Mexico among the middle and upper classes the custom of allow ing women to make use of the windows of the houses facing on the street for l observation stations. This was long step in the advancement of women from the tolerant idea of the Moors.
 In Mexico in the cool of the evening the windows of all the houses are opened along the streets, and hundreds
 of women, principally the young ones, appear there to view the carriages that pass by and to nod to their friends, and thus keep in touch with a world with which they are not likely to come in
 much closer contact; for the young men,
 or old, for that matter, do not make a habit of visiting the families of their | friends, and young men have to do their eourting from outside the house. Most of the houses in Mexico were, but a
 short time ago, provided with windows heavily barred with iron. Through these the lovers saw one another And although many of the modern houses are without these bars to the windows, the custom of making love from the window is still preserved. A young
 girl in Mexico could not commit a
 greater crime against social usage than to appear on the street alone with a
 man not of her own family. She under
 stands this, and so she is careful not to go out of the house to see her lover, even though the windows have TO bars, Modern Mexico.

BARRIERS, SHOP DISEASES.

The transference to his customers by means of his hands and instruments, of many parasitic skin diseases has long been recognized as one of the unneces- sary accomplishments of the necessary borber. Among these affections are sy- eosis, impetigo, seborrheic alopecia and furuncolisis that is more or less chron- ic in type. Dr. Graham Chambers states that during the past five years impetigo circinata has been very pre- valent in Toronto, scarcely a month passing without an outbreak of from two to thirty cases, generally rraeeable to a. common source. The barber shop is so commonly the source that he de- signates the disease as ''barbers' im- petigo" Quite recently Dr. w. A. Hardaway has called attention to a
 point which me believes, and we think rightly, has been but little recognized

 But what did you say to your ser wants that day you called them to- gether to have it out With them? in- terrupted Mrs June Bride.
 I told them that things never had gone smoothly in my house since I'd been married ten years before, and l knew that I was more than half to blame. T have been too kind to my girls one day and unjust the next said

 '' You said I to the nurse, are an excellent nurse and have devoted five long years to the care of my children. I love and respect and honor you for it. but you have very quick temper and fly into a rage with me with little or no provoeation. I return it by getting as angry as you, and each time we get angry we lower our dignity, we destroy our good character. Now when you get angry again I shall merely take you by the hand, and if l become vexed you do the same We will understand without a word, and we will develop our char aeters together
 That nurse. as you know, is in my house to-day, my maid and seamstress, and not so much as a cross look has passed between us since that day. We barred our souls before each other.
 'The cook did not go, but stayed with me fifteen years until she married the ice man. I told her I had been quick tempered and unjust many times and she cried and said she'd had the devil in her, too.

 Expensive? It was the greatest economy that I've ever discovered in half century of housekeeping. There isn't flat kitchen so tiny In all New York that it cannot be made dainty and inviting and big enough for an oeca- sional guest. Giving a girl well fur nished room and plenty of good food to eat is not giving her home. You can't give her a home, you must make it for her. When you get hold Of a competent servant no sacrifice is too great to re- tain her, be she a general houseworker or one of a staff of twenty. And when you get hold of an incompetent one don't spoil your looks, and your hus- bands happiness, by getting out of temper over her. Try to fit her in her right groove.

MARRIAGE OF YAcTo HEIDKA
 AND HIS WIFE.

MARRIAGE OF YACTO HEIDKA
 AND HIS WIFE.
 Tact Heidka is the man who shot his wife in Seymour recently.
 Heidka is said to have been jealous of his wife, and this with inc reported re- fusal of the woman to remain in An sonia. is believed to have prompted the crime. The couple. if has been learned. were married by the pastor of the Green church on Bassett street, on Nov. II. 1903. Several evenings before that date. two men and a woman asked Sergeant Larkin the way to City Clerk Kirkham's home. The spokesman said they desired q marriage license, and be- ling directed to the clerks residence. secured the necessary certificate.
 The wedding, it was explained was to take place the following Saturday, and that day being the 14th, it is believed that one Of the men was Heidka and the woman his wife. Heidka could not speak English very well and the other man ex3lained that the groom lived in Ansonia while the bride came from Sey- mour. They were to live in this city, it was said. and did so for two or three months after their marriage. Mrs. Heidka. so the story goes, went to live in Seymour. while Heidka returned to his boarding house on Clifton avenue. The trouble between the two probably dated from this time.
 1 Heidka worked in the shop of the Coe Brass Co, until Jan. 20, when he was laid eff. What he had been doing since that time is not exactly known. Heidka lis of swarthy complexion and was known to some as the Filipino. His age in the marriage record is given as P years, and that of his wife at 20, He is a little below medium height, has black hair. and smooth face, and with the scar on the side of his neck can be easily identified. d.-Ansonia Sentinel.
