After the rodeo certainly Eche-

the family, and it was probably as they
tourneved home that the senorita's
fate was sealed by Herrera's word.

two circles always face to face. Here
was the opportunity for the enterpris-

fan and mantilla to screen the inner
circle from the too interested scrutiny
of the outer. but what hero with a
name like Martinez Estudillo Arguello
Echeandia would be baff1ed by piece
of black lace? At one of these prone
nades. then, the lordly eye of Echeandia
fell upon Senorita Inez, and imme-
diately he burned with a consuming
passion, as was customary. When the
senorita was returning home under the
escort of a battalion of sisters, cousins
and aunts, Echeandia followed at
respectful distance and discovered the
abode of his inamorata. After that he
lit cigarrito and strolled back to the
square. pondering what he could stake
on monte, for ready money he must
have if he intended falling in love. and
his present resources were-well. it
would have been extremely ungenteel

to decide his fate. Had he lost his
love story would have come to an
abrupt termination, but fortune, with
the old weak spot in her heart for
lover, sat by his side.
At any rate, the next day Echeandia
was preparing to attack the fOrtifica-
tions that surrounded the senoEita
namely Senior Herrera and all the
brothers and uncles. This might re-
quire months of strategy, and even
after the breastworks were won, even
after the garrison had capitulated. the

record the emotions OF the senorita, as
they were matters of quite secondary
Importance, but If she was true Cas-
tilian maiden it is safe to assume that
before now she had implored the saints
for a husband. addressing her suppl
cations to St. Anthony after the unique
Spanish fashion by throwing a little
image of that revered celibate into the
well, saying: Lie there. st. Anthony
and drink water till thou has found me
a husband" Perhaps at this stage OF
the proceedings she fished up the saint
as a reward of merit.
If Echeandia adopted the approved
method of courtship imported from
Mexico he now began to play the
bear" that is, he took up his stand out
side the Herrera dwelling and waited
hour after hour with the hope OF seeing
his Juliet pass on the balcony that ran
across the upper part of the house. Up
and down he would pace and perhaps
receive one signal in long afternoon!

are your relatives; you are at home."
But woe to the suitOr it, thus en-
couraged, he for one moment treated

is perfectly healthy. 1t is the glory of
a child who is well. AS the child's
success depends upon vitality, so does
his vitality depend upon a strong
body. II these things are so is 1t not
Of vast importance that parents see
to it that every provision is made for
the developing of strong bodies?
The mind is that in us which
knows, feels and Wills. Therefore the
training of the child's mind means
not only the furnishing of the mind
with knowledge, but it also means the
culture of the feelings and the devel-
opment of the will. From earliest
childhood the mind drinks in knowf-
edge through the senses of smell,
touch, taste, sight and hearing. By
means of the senses the child per-
ceives that there is a world outside of
itself. To limited extent the child
quite early remembers. Later the
faculties of memory, imagination,
conception, judgment and reasoning
becomes active.
Primarily the child gains all its in
formation through the senses. If but

In his party was Don Martinez Estu-

whose sons had sat upon the throne
OF Spain, In whose veins ran the blood
Of Ferdinand-in fact he possessed the
usual titular equipment of Spanish
gentleman. Just why he was in the
New World instead OF occupying the
proud halls of his fathers was ques-
ton never asked by polite society. To-
night, certainly, his apparel admitted
no disputation of his dignity.

black silk handkerchief, the four cor
ners of which hung down upon his
neck behind. He had on an embroid-
cred shirt a blue damask vest. short
clothes of crimson velvet. a bright
green cloth Jacket with large silver
buttons and shoes of embroidered
buckskin." over this fell the serape
covered with "as much velvet trim

- - THE BOAT AND THE BODY - =

Watch a noble boat glide into the
water. 1t is as strong as can possibly
be built from wood and iron, after the
most perfect pattern. 1t must be strong,
that for years il may be able to hold
together until the last harbor is
reached. Unless il is strong there can
be no voyage. Whether driven by wind
or by steam is Of secondary Importance.
So il is with the human body. To sue
cessfully sail over life's rough sea 1t
must be strong and rugged. The
amount of canvas, the power Of the
engines. and other factors will deter
mine the rapidity of the boats pro-
gress. The energy, the enthusiasm, the
persistency Of the individual will deter
mine 3. what rate he will advance.
But without the sound body neither the
voyage Of the boat nor that Of the child
can be successful.
II may be that no one can say what
vitality is. Some say that ii is nerve
force: others that il is a force fed by
air and assimilation, and that it acts
through the nerves. Be this as il may.
All must agree that il is the measure

in love in those unenlight-
ened days when the malady was really
considered formidable. The man was
looked upon as in serious plight. who
was thus stricken. even here in our
own West, in those days before the
Yankees came among the senors and
hidaleOs TO teach how cavalierly this
illness should be treated, how speedily
the remedy may be obtained and a per-
manent cure effected. To the lover Of
Alta California il was an affair of mo-
ment TO take unto himself bride. In
deed, he devoted so much time and
thought to the enterprise that it was
he, perhaps, who furnished the founda-
ton for the myth concerning the seri-
BUSINESS Of matrimony generally. How
ever that may be. he presents an awful
picture, upon which the up-to-date
lover can hardly look without shudder-
ing and thanksgiving. Such a view is.
however, occasionally wholesome for
him as showing how much worse his
own lot might have been. After gazing
upon il he will forever discount his
own trials and wear a cheerful coun-
tenance even when ordering the
chaperon's supper!
1t is difficult for US to realize that
even such a short time ago as during
the ls2O's the settlements Of Alta Cali
fornia attempted to reflect. like so
many small mirrors, the life Of Madrid,
ano that just as the Californians
hitched oxen TO their plows because lit
was so done by our fathers in Spain"
30 they married and gave in marriage
after modification Of the Spanish
mode. In those days the city plaza
often formed the stage setting for the
first act OF a love affair. Little by little
the candles and lanterns had begun to
glimmer forth around the square
where the aguardiente seller and the
monte player were bringing their tables
out in front Of their booths Among the
trees the violins and guitars were tun-
ing up, and the little fountain in the
center Of the square braced up for the
occasion and did its level best to make
the plaza look like a square in old

Madrid. With the growing dusk the
pleasure-seekers strolled into the plaza
and soon the air was filled with laugh
ter, chatter and song. Had we been in
San Diego, for instance. on such a
night we would have noticed among the
aristocrats one particular maiden with
blacker eyes, redder lips and more i'm

of the hidalgo whose broad acres
stretched from the sea almost to the
foothills. Gossip would not have re-
Trained probably from bringing in the
name of the young Don Martinez at
the same time, but to that we, of
course, would have turned deaf ear.
