ed by the public and his name is displayed in
banner lines all over the world il ne succeeds
in reaching the tape ahead Of the other nervy

The worship of the hero is a part of tho

Politeness to Servants and Even the
Street Besgsrs.

From what we saw and from
what happened to us | made up a.
page of Spanish etiquette. 1t IS
probably not correct, but l offer 1t
as the result of our experiences.
Other people may have had differ
ent impressions. If YOU are of the
female sex never wear short skirt.
a sailor or English walking hat un-
less you are willing to have people
stare at you and sometimes call
after YOU. If you have red hair dye
it or be prepared to be saluted as
"Rubia." Never bow to a man un-
less he lifts his hat first. If you are
a man you may dress as an English
man, an operate tenor OF a chorus
singer from Carmen without excit-
ing remark. Never wear glasses.
If you are blind take a. dog ON a
string. When you sit down at the
table or arise always bow and say,
"Buenas." This is imperative. You
may jostle people without apology,
but never speak to any one without
saying your grace" be he noble,
friend or beggar. "Will your grace
do me the favor to bring me my
coffee at o'clock tomorrow"
would strike an American bellboy
with dismay. But it is the literal
translation of the Spanish request.
Never tell beggar to clear out, but
say that you have left your purse at
home and that yol will remember
him tomorrow or gently murmur
that God will reward him, whereat
he will smile, thank you and depart.
These same beggars, who spring
up on every side, seem to have a
code of etiquette we could not faith
om. After two or three days there
were a few who begged only from
me, two or three others who be-
sought Jean. Evidently We were
understood to be the patrons of GER
tain beggars who out of crowd OF
mendicants were the only ones tc
approach Us who would take theil
dole with thanks or if we said "to
morrow" would smilingly back
away at once.
A trip into Spain ought to NEAR
more than sketches of life as W.
saw it in a single city. Yet it wa'
our pleasure to linger on in Mad
rid, with the exception OF three
days spent in Toledo and the Escu
rial, for the whole of our TIVE

rect to Paris without seeing any o

THE COLORADO DESERT.
How Sound Carries and the Way Mi
RACES Come and Go.

Talk about wireless telephonesl
The Colorado desert goes science
one better in that line. According
to travellers in that neck of sand
and sagebrush, you can dispense
with any kind of telephone, with or
without wires, at least up to GER
tain distance.
Two men a mile apart can carry
on a conversation in an ordinary
tone of voice, particularly if there
happens to be small hill behind
each, writes Harvey Hall Kessler in
the Travel Magazine. The prevail
ing silence is so intense that 1t
might be called deafening.
Perhaps, after all, the weirdest
among many strange features OF the
dcscst is the mirage. We have
camped perhaps and gone to bed
early in the evening with the ther-
mometer registering not far below
tt, hundred mark. We awake,
sht, ering with cold beneath our
blankets, and look toward the east.
There is the slightest suggestion
of light in the sky there, which as
we watch grows slowly in strength.
A grayish haze marks the horizons 8
edge, which stands out more sharply
at one point, from which broad,
pale rays creep up and out high
above in the sky. These again
slowly fade as a point of brilliant
light appears at their base. This
point grows to a half circle, then
breaks and runs along the sky line
in a surging, golden lake.
Upon the shores of this lake
cities spring up, towers, spires and
solid blocks. These fade into fields
and forests and farming scenes
fields of golden grain, cattle stand
ing in green alfalfa, sheets of wa
ter. The mountains near the edge
of the lake separate from their
bases and float upward, topple over
and stand on their heads, their un-
wieldy feet in air.
Soon our lake begins to contract
and collect into a big round ball OF
dazzling brilliance hung just above
the horizon. Farms and forest dis
appear. The mountains, as though
abashed at being caught in such ar
unseemly attitude by the broae
light of day, quickly resume theil
normal position, while all the starl
landscape stiffens into unstirring en-
durance of the garish light anc
blazing heat of the desert sun. Th'
mirage is gone like bubble. onl,
the gray desert remains.

autternilk q Life Saver.

A French medical man advises
people to drink buttermilk for long
life. He says that the Tactic acid
dissolyes every sort of earthly depos-
it in the blood vessels, keeping the
veins and arteries so supple and free
running that there can be no clog
ging up, and hence there is no de-
posit of chalky matter around the
joints or of poisonous waste in the
muscles. 1t is the stiffening and
hardening of the blood vessels
which bring on old age. Butter
milk is likely to postpone it ten OF
twenty years if freely drunk a
