THE REBOZoS OF MEXICO.
Fine Article of Apparel Made by
Men Who Do Excellent
Needlework.

F. w. Schrelba of the City of Mexi-
CO. here on his way 20 Europe. gave an
interesting account of the manufacture
of silk shawls, known as rebozos. in
which industry he is largely engaged.
He predicted says the New York
Sun. that the Mexican silk shawls
would soon come into general use
among wealthy women of the United
States. They have long been In use
among ladies of Mexico.
THE silk rebozos which I manufac-
ture are about seven feet long and
three feet wide." he said. "They are
the headwear for all occasions In the
southern part Of Mexico and especial
ly In Yucatan.
Most OF the women think that to
be without a good silk rebozo Is very
much like giving an open declaration
that they do not amount to much in
social circles. The rebozo is appropri-
ate for everything from a funeral to
a festival, and one will last q woman
nearly a lifetime. A good one costs
$28 IN Mexican money.
THE most popular colors are black
and white, white and green and pink
and black. A great many cotton and
mixed shawls are now being manufac-
tured. but no matter how we'll the
work of weaving the mixed materials
Is done. or how fine the grades of cot
ton used. the commonest Mexican can
detect the difference We import all
OF the silk from Japan.
There are six or seven factories In
San Luis Potosi and the surrounding
country. They dye 1t and make 1t into
the finest sewing silk the natives can
handle, and these can work with what
an American woman could not see.
"The thread Is sold to the natives,
and entire families who live near the
factories do nothing but make shawls.
1t seems rather peculiar to see a man
quit farm work to do the finest and
most difficult needlework, but they do
it. The average family can make two
dollars day, Mexican money, with
every member working.
"In the factories there are frames
on which four men work on a shawl
at the same time. One frame will
turn cut ten shawls in a week. There
is considerable trade with American
tourists now carried on in Mexico. The
tourists buy the rebozos as curios."

WEDDING GOWN PUT on ICE
Maids Error Makes the Bride Un-
happy During Several
Hours.

Among her friends girl who lately
returned from New York, where she
was present at fashionable wedding.
Is telling a good story of an Irish maid
who came near having the wedding
postponed by blunder she made. The
bride ordered her gown and veil from
her regular dressmaker, and after It
was finished the maker packed the
dainty garments. to be worn at the
wedding, in a decorated box. with the
result that there was CONSERVATION in
the bride's home and the pretty girl
wept bitterly over her dislppoint-
ment.
When the order fcr the brides gown
was left II was ul a-stood the gown
was not to hc delivered until the af-
tern )on of the wedding. which was to
have tcoa fashionable one. The day
before the gown was to be worn the
girl who was to wear 1t called at the
establishment to have last fitting.
and arrangements were made to have
1t at her home by three p. m, as the
wedding ceremony was scheduled for
six the same evening. The dress was
finished at two p. m. and with the
wedding veil was packed in a hand
some box, decorated beautifully with
flowers and sent by the most reliable
delivery boy in the establishment.
When three O'Clock arrived the bride
telephoned and was very cross. saying
her dress had not arrived. The clerk
looked up the boy and he said he had
delivered the box. The customer was
telephoned to. but she was almost dis
tracted and suggested the box had been
delivered to the wrong address, as she
had not seen It. The boy insisted he
delivered the box at the address given
him and as 1t was getting late there
was great excitement The customer
was a good one and the house could
not afford to lose her patronage.
The delivery book was next consult
ed and 1t was found the box had been
delivered at the right address and
signed for by the person who received
1t. Then the girl was notified and
everyone in the house was asked II
they had received the dress, but all
said 70.
With the guests arriving. the bride
crying and the house in confusion at
the last minute the bride was pre-
vailed upon to 60 down among the
guests In one of her old gowns and
without a veil. She had to face the
most fashionable society people in the
city. but the ceremony was gone
through with.
Later In the evening, while the for
ist was arranging the floral decora-
tions In the brides home. one OF the
maids suggested that some flowers re-
ceivsd in the afternoon be used and
the florist asked wnere they were. On
being told ION the ice In the cellar"
he went down to get them and on
opening the box found the gown and
veil. When questioned as to how she
had come to make such blunder the
maid replied:
"Oh. there were flowers on the out
side of the box. so was sure there
were flowers inside and put It on the
Ice"

BANDIT PICTURES HARMFUL
Sensitive Child Raises Valid Pro-
test Against Blood -Curdling
Pictures.

Gov. Hoch's paper, the Marion
tKan) Record. has started a crusade
against certain class of moving pic
lures. 1t relates this story to sus-
tain is position:
A little flve-year-old Marion boy,
who has always shown extraordinary
fortitude in dealing with the inevitable
bumped head, bruised nose, slivered
fingers and stubbed toes, announced
some time back that he was 'goin' to
be a doctor when he got big" The
other day he was going over the
grades in school that he would have to
pass before he could go into the high
school, land then where1l go when
get fru high school?" he asked.
why. you're going to a medical
school and learn to be a DOCTOR" his
mother answered.
''Oh. but | amt going to be a doc
tor. though" he said
you're not! Well, then, what are
you going to be?" she asked.
why, I'm going TO be a burglar"
was his astonishing reply. and from
the way his little eyes bulged out you
would have thought he meant it.
He saw "The Train Rollers during
the street fair this summer, and this
new ambition" was no doubt kindled
within him at that time. such is the
impress,onable quality OF the child
mind, and to these imaginative little
beings the robber In the moving pic
ture Is as much reality as though the
men were there In the flesh, and the
picture money Is real money to his
limited little vision.
II we have moving picture shows. let
them show something beautiful-beau-
tiful to the eye and capable OF inspir-
ing beautiful, helpful, things. The pos
sibilities of the moving picture ma
chine in an educational way are great,
but we don't want to educate our chill
dren to be bandits.

Living by Eggs Alone.

The other day number OF persons
attending a meeting OF pure food ad-
vocates in New York made the an
nouncement that the only really pure
food is the fresh egg. This raises
the question whether mans life
might be prolonged indefinitely II he
limited his diet to eggs. Luigi Cor
naro, the famous Italian OF some CEN
turies back, who at the age Of 40,
with his constitution apparently
ruined through excesses, adopted a
regimen that enabled him to live as
long as he wanted to live, and died
OF ennui on the threshold of his hun
dredth year, set great store by the
egg. 1t was this interesting gentle
man who reduced his diet by degrees
until he sustained himself in serenity
and comfort on single egg day

coETHE's CANAL PROPHECY
Poets Views Concerning an Isthmian
Canal Which Are to Be

In February, 1927. Goethe, in a conver-
sation with his secretary, Eckermann,

some day be put through the Isthmus OF
Panama. said:
"All this is reserved for the future
and for an enterprising spirit. SO much,

an opportunity escape OF getting such
work into their own hands. II may be

decided predilectian to the west, will in
30 or 40 years have occupied and peopled
the large tract of land beyond the Rocky
mountains. II may. furthermore, be
foreseen that along the whole coast of
the Pacific ocean, where nature has al
ready formed the most capacious and Sc

towns will gradually arise for the fur
