Unjust Partially.

Does any one know why It is that In
a family where there Is one child espe-
cially lowered with good looks the
prettiest clothes are showered on this
particular one and apparently most
care lavished on their selection? That
child would look well In almost any
ordinarily presentable attire. 1t is the
lanky 10y or the girl lacking in grace
who needs the physical and mental
support Of attire that covers deficien-
cies and brings out the good points
that they obscure. Really intelligent
selection Of the child,s clothes does ex-
actly this and is responsible for all
sorts Of good results In bis mental at.
dtude, courage and good manners.
Shyness is more often than not the re-
suit of an uneasy self consciousness
that has been engendered by seeing
that some other child is surrounded by
more appreciation, and the too great
attention lavished on the beauty IL
quite as harmful In its way.

continually tramping over his farm to
look at 1t.
The altar, as it was called, stood on
top Of a high hill on the Horner farm.
1t was covered with figures Of men,
animals, snakes and, strangest Of all, a
figure Of kangaroo, all chiseled in the
rock. II was discovered a few years

Trouble Brewing in
Old Mexico.

The revolutionary bubbles that are
constantly arising in the fiery little
Central American republics seem to
have been waited in the direction of
Mexico. and murmurings of discomfort
and rebellion are becoming more and
more manifest. The people of Next
co, especially the lower classes, have
never had very much use for foreign
ers, and citizens Of the United States
have always been particularly dislik-
cd. Whether this feeling has extend
Cd to the better class of Mexicans is
open to question, but in view Of re-
cent events. especially the treatment
accorded to American fishermen at
Progresso, 1t Is fair to conclude that
al Mexicans bear no love for citizens
OF this country.
