STORY TELLING IN MEXICO

/. + ..-.-. i p &
'*The. Mexicans are great story tell
ers,' said an American mining engin-
eer, who is now operating south of the
border. ''The percentage Of illiteracy
is very large, and stories told by word
of mouth take the place of reading.
7 I'm every mining camp, every cattle
camp, the fireside diversion when
work stops is listening to folk-tales.

but there were the same plots.
Il asked a priest, an authority on
Mexican history, how Boccaccio ever
got his start down there. He explain
ed it in this way:

CHIN BELTS NOW A FAD.

Still Another Idea in Eternal Quest for
Beauty.
It would seem as if the limit had
been reached in beauty culture now
that chin belts have been placed on
the market. The feminine inventor
holds that whether in the social or
business world, it is to every woman's S
interest as we'll as her duty to look
her best"
Hence she stands for the hard and
fast sentiment that with the ideal
twentieth century girl there is no ex;
cuse for defects of either contour or
complexion"
In the adoption of chin belts the pro
verbal last word prerogative of the
perfect sex is in no wise waived, as
the contrivance is applied only during
sleeping hours. The announcement is
made that this novel style bride is a
"practical and scientific device for the
positive correction and prevention o1

By the use of chin belts the lips are
sealed, the tongue being temporarily
out of commission. Thus by the wearel
breathing through the nostrils and al
lowing of natural expansion of lungs

Victory for the A&&ressor

A celebrated writer, says the Wash
ington Post, mentions the duke of
Cumberland and Marshal Soult as
stout captains, but unfortunate, pos
sessing the confidence Of their superb
ors and subordinates, but generally
losing the day when they commanded.
Marshal Daun, so long opposed to
Frederick the Great, was another un-
fortunate general who lost battles,
but was ever stubborn fighter and
trusted commander.
Gen. Kouropatkin belongs to the
class of Soult and Cumberland. That
he had an army with which to occupy
Mukden stamps him as a thorough
soldier, and that he saved even a part
of that army after the titanic battles
of the twelve days shows that he is
commander of very considerable tai

sity of attempting a traditional Rus

Paw of a Rose Grower.

"A god rose grower-that is, one
who can show good results" says a
we'll known florist, receives as much
pay as college professor. AS a rule,
his knowledge has cost him about as
much.
'By a rose grower I mean a spe-
cialist who can produce heavy headed
beauties with strong, yard long stems.
Growing roses in pots or in the open is
another matter. 1t requires skill to
grow them we'll, but it requires some
thing more to show cut flowers of the
quality that has come to be considered
the first grade That is business by
itself. Good rose growers get from
1000 to $4,000 a year, and some of
them receive much more, notably a
few who cater to the New York mar
ket."

When the Bur&lar Fled

The burglar, having used his skele-

fully twisted his doorknob, listened in
tently and then tiptoed into the apart
ment.
A thin ray of light from his dark
lantern showed him a path through
the mazes Of furniture, but, as he mov-
ed forward, his foot struck sharply
against chair. Drawing his revolver
he quickly determined on desperate
measures, for sound at the other end

The burglar stood still, trembling in

Given Queer Send O t f

BY far the most picturesque figure
at the Five O'Clock club dinner one
night recently was Congressman John
Allen of Mississippi. When this de-
lightful southerner entered official life
at Washington he came minus the
characteristic title of colonel" or
major" The fact that a southern
soldier, filling the high Office of con-
gressman, did not lay claim to some
military rank so amazed his colleagues
that the newcomer was Immediately
dubbed "Private John Allen"
United States senator Tom Carter
of Montana in introducing Mr.. Allen
to the Five O'Clockites related a
breezy exchange Of insults that
passed between :"Private Allen" and
Col. John r. Fellows, another intrepid
soldier from Dixie land, at a banquet
they attended some years ago. when
Private John Allen arose to speak,"
said Senator Carter, "he launched

Decameron along with stories Of his
own. The French writer's of fablieux
before and after Boccaccio used many
of the same stories. They are in the
Roman de- la Rose and in half .
dozen others. &$#
''The padres, in the early days OF
the Spanish occupation, brought over
these French works, which were always
popular in the monasteries. They
weren't much on Boccaccio, for his ir-
reverence always queered him with
the church. But they all knew the
fablieux. The priests and friars told
these tales to their Indian acolytes,
and they became incorporated with
the national folklore.
There was one tale, not a pretty
one, which l used to hear about the
campfres, and which I never could
place in Boccaccio or any other writer
whom I knew. Last year visited
Pompeii-and there was that whols
tale told out in pictures on wall.
II got some of my scholarly friends
to look it up. They found that particu-
lar story, or traces of it, in Greek,
Latin and Sanskrit literature. 1t is
as old a tale as we know; and here
it is being told nightly as part of their
own traditions by the Aztec story tell
ers of Mexico"
The Cook County herald., 1905-06-10

into a scathing denunciation of the
military record of Col. Fellows. This
man Fellows said Allen, started from
home with nothing but a Bible, an
arithmetic and a halter. It was his
purpose to teach school, become
preacher, or, failing in both, steal a
horse and ride back home. He finally
joined the army as an easy means of
reaching home Then COL Fellows
arose. This man Allen he thunder
ed, tells you that he figured in many
engagements and was captured a num-
Der of times. I do not deny that he
was captured, but the Yankees each
time released him, realizing that it
was an easier matter to fight him than
to feed him."
With this unique introduction "Pri-
vate John Allen arose, and for more
than an hour delighted his hearers
with, reminiscent tales of a mirthful
character.-Philadelp Record.

in Europe, too far from home. He
employed against Oyama the plan Of
Peter the Great against Charles XII,
and Of Kutusoff against Napoleon. 1t

against Hannibal, and the Parthians
