Why Not See Mexico.

Forty-eight hours of travel will take
you from the cold clustering Northern
winter to land of sunshine and flowers
What Egypt and India are to the old
world, Mexico is to the new. "a land
of white sunshine, redolent with towers
land of gay costumes, crumbling
churches, and old converts. land of
kindly greetings, of extreme courtesy,
of open, broad hospitality. 1t was
more than a enough to reveal in an
Italian sun, lighting up semi-tropical
land; to look up to white-capped peaks
towering into blue; to look down upon
wind-swept plains, encircled by ragged
chains of mountains; and to relize that
today. in its varied scenery. costumes
architecture, street life, canals crowd
ed with flowerladen boats, market
places thronged with gaily dressed
natives, faded church interiors, and
abaneoned converts, Mexico is the most
marvelously picturesque country nnder
the sun. A tropical Venice; A semi
barbarous Spain; A new Holy Land. "

In the investigation OF the currents

has been observed that there is at
times wide difference in the direction
of the drift of icebergs and that Of
the fiat or pan ice, which, having no
great depth, is governed in its mo.
tons BY the surface currents and the
winds. whereas the icebergs, the lar
ger part of which is submerged to a
great depth. follow only the movement
Of the ocean water us a whole and are
uninfuenced by the winds. In conse
quence huge berg may often be seen
majestically maintaining its slow ad
vance in opposition TO the wind and
across tile general motion of the fields
of fiat ice surrounding 1t. The sealers
often take advantage of this fact by
mooring their vessels to an iceberg in
order to prevent n drift to leeward.-

THE "P' AND THE a."
Why They are Dotted and How the
Practice Originated

The dot over the "i'' originated in an
accent which was put over the letter
when doubled or placed next. a "u," a
practice traced back TO the eleventh
century. In the twelfth century the
accent occurs in the combination of
''i' with other letters, and in the four
teenth een,lry the accent was changed
to dot-flst instance in MSS. 1927
which became universal when printing
made 1t inconvenlent to retain both
forms.
Originally ~ and ." were modified
forms of the same letter. In the IF.
teenth century the az at the beginning
of WORD, was heightened and orna-
mentally turned TO the left, while in
the middle of word 1t was unaltered.
Both forms were dotted, and after the
initial "i''. became IL" separate let
ter and consonant, II still retained
Its dot. TITS is limited usually to the
small -" but abroad it may be seen
also over the capital letter.-London
