SHOPPING IN MEXICO
Women Get Plenty of Excitement
In Making a Purchase.
BARGAINING AS A FINE ART.

ihe descent from tne ASKING frlce
to the Last Price and From That te
the Final Selling Price Works Out
Something Like'a Farce Comedy.
When woman goes shopping 10 the
C1ty of Mexico, especially If she speaks
Spanish, she gets far more excitement
for her money in the course of an aft.
ernoon than she could hope to compass
in years time in America.
In the Spanish and French dry goods
houses. where the trade Is almost ex.
cuSively feminine. the goods are
marked with the asking price," which
is mere mathematical figure OF
speech. and the first question that the
experienced shopper always asks of
the salesman is. What is your last
price?"
This "ultimo precio" is generally
about 25 per cent less than the selling
price with which the goods are tagged.
1t forms. however. certain basis from
which to start the bargaining, which
thereafter is carried on with all the
skill and fury that characterize such
transactions everywhere throughout
Latin America. The woman customer
may wish to purchase a few yards of
silk, for example. The marked price
is. say, So yard. and the last price"
is given as $l50 The woman will
look at the piece she desires with the
same unconcerned scorn with which
she regards everything else that Is
shown her. She will disparage 1t from
every point of view and finally ask for
something that is not likely 10 be in
stock. At last she will sigh and look
about in despair.
"Caramba, but I'm weary with this
vain task of endeavoring to find some
thing that wish in this second class
establishment! The prices are far high
or than anywhere else, but | try to
patroni2e this place because the pro.
prietors are friends of my husband
Now that rose silk is not the shade |

once! Moreover, the man had an i'll

what was he to look like that? Moth

"All right, Moran. Jackson it is"
Joe arrived, having lost Jenny's 81,
but cheerful as ever.
The new boarder interested him, and
he began to make his acquaintance, his
method being the not unusual one of
asking innocently impertinent ques,
tics.
Haggleton saw another opportunity,
and. as usual, he took it. He talked
to Joe, but at Moran.
Yes; Haggleton was looking for
job. No; he had not saved penny out
Of his failure.
But Moran snorted.
"Once you are down and out you
stay down and out" he snarled.
"Well. will try, anyhow"
"You won't get the opportunity"
persisted Moran.
II shan't wait for it. l will create

you might as we'll quit. The capitalists

HaggletOn listened attentively, an
alyzing the mans arguments as they
flowed from his now fluent lips. 1t
was the first time that he heard the
voice of social discomfort direct, in
stead of giving it a hasty moment of
attention as it expressed itself in press
reports or magazine articles.
What struck him at once about
Moran's TRADE was that the man
placed upon the shoulders of the rich
not only the responsibility for all the
wrongs of society, but also the duty of
righting them without any assistance
from him and his class
Joe became impatient.

A DREAM CAT.
Repeated Appearance Premonitory OF
Disease.

Disease.
"Some years ago. early In the sum
mer," says H. Arlington Bruce In
Success Magazine. Il dreamed that
while out taking walk | was sud
denly attacked by a huge cat, when
clawed ferociously at my throat. That
was all there was to the dream. or. AT
any rate, that was all remembered on
awakening In the morning, and, natu-
rally enough, dismissed 1t from my
mind as nothing but a dream.
but when found myself dreaming
the same dream again aud again | be-
gan to wonder what significance 1t
would possibly have. Usually 1t varied
greatly in minor detail. Always, how
ever, the climax was the same-the
cat had me by the throat and was bit
ing and scratching viciously. Alto
gether | dreamed this dream not less
than score of times In six months.
shortly before Christmas | took a
cold, which settled in my throat, af-
fecting it so badly as to require the
attention of a specialist. Much to my
establishment, it was then discovered
that a growth had been developing for
some time and that an immediate oper-
alton was necessary.
Several weeks later, the operation
having been performed successfully, 1t
suddenly occurred to me that was no
longer being troubled by the phantom
cat. For the first time the meaning of
the singular dream dawned upon me.
1T had been genuine premonitory
dream. Consciously | had been in ut
ter ignorance of the dangerous growth
In my throat. 1t had not progressed
far enough to give me any pain or even
to cause discomfort. At the same time
the organic changes 1t involved had
produced sensations plainly felt by
what psychologists cali the subcon.
sciouS and manifesting through the
subcOnscious to the conscious In the
form of symbolic Dream
