FLOWERS IN MEXICO.
SO Plentiful That They Are Used For
Great Public Decorations

/ As q people the Meyicans are very
I FOND OF flowers, and every village. town
ana city has Its place where flowers

have extensive flower markets. Often
I the flowers brought TO the market arc
wild specimens found In the woods and
the fields. but all are beautiful. In
many of the smaller towns aud yillarpg
the public parks and the sidewalks ~
the streets are used as places for The
sale Of flowers. Everywhere they may
be bought ut surprisingly low prices.
SO plentiful are flowers they are used
for great public decorations Some
times whole parks and The fronts Of
buildings for many streets are covered
With floral decorations on feast day.
The Mexican love Of flowers has been
Inherited from a long line Of flower
loving ancestors. More than n thou
sand years ago the chief feature OF
worship among the Toltecs was tho
great floral offering which was made tn
the fair god once year and which
lasted for whole Mexican week. Dur
ing this festival one Of the features
was great floral procession, which
traversed the principal streets Of the
city to the sound Of musical instru +
ments. Every one in the procession
carried flowers to lay upon the altar Of
the god or to place upoa The steps or
walls Of his temple u this procession
were princes. mobiles. priests and com.
moners. This floral festival was an
expression Of the love Of nature for
which the Toltecs were noted Unnl I

Where the Crowds went

An old actor was illustrating the
danger of giving advice. and he told of
q theatrical manager who adopted the
line go where the crowds go" as n
sort of trademark and used it on all
his literature and posters. THE scheme
worked pretty WELL" said the actor.
until the theatrical man struck a town
at the same time q circus was there.
Then the suggestion. Go where the
crowds go, proved a boomerang. for
the crowds were going to the circus.
and the theatrical man went broke"
