WATER PORTERS OF QUITO
They Carry Zig Earthen Jars on Their
Backs and eowing, Create
a Cataract.

Around q fountain in one Of the
principal squares of Quito assemble
every morning the city's aguadores.
These water porters differ from the
less energetic ones of some South
American cities in carrying their jars
upon their backs instead of on the
backs of mules. Their earthen jars
are deep, have a wide mouth, and
hold about 40 liters.
The porter carries it on his shout
der fastened with leather straps. He
never detaches himself from his jar
either to fill it or to transfer its con-
tents to that of his customer.
He turns his back to the fountain
so that the jar comes under one Of
the jets of water, listens to the sound
of the water in the jar, and his ear
is so well trained that he always
walks away at the exact moment
when it is filled to the brim.
Arriving at the house Of a Gus
toner, he goes to the household jar,
makes deep bow, and disappears be-
hind a torrent of water. Foreigners
can never receive, without laughing,
the visit Of their aguador, the respect.

Sunday last spring, and just at an
hour when all the delicatessens were
closed she discovered that she needed

INSIST ON HAPPINESS.

% Our blessings are too often taken
for granted, like the sunshine, while
our misfortunes stand out very DIS
tinctly. 1t is a truism that TIE more
a man fixes his mind on his troubles
the greater they become. The wiser
course is to count up the good things
one has. Most people have more of
blessings, more things to take Joy in
than they are likely to realize. Just
one little discomfort, one thing that
goes wrong, a single thing that grievee
US, looms up so large that it clouds
a day.
When the adverse thing can he
remedied, do it at cnce. If it is to be
endured, bear it with patience and
set the mind on the happy things.
Joy is the grace we say to Cod"
The sunshine, the rain, the cold-all
are good in their time and are part
of Gods world and for the good OF
man. They are in truth no larger
than the pleasant things. There is
the good you see in others, the love
of your friends, the very fact that yo
have work to do and are able to dc
it.
Suppose you are poor even. You
may take pleasure in seeing beauti
full things even though you do moi
own them. If there appears nothing
but sOrdidness,. poverty, diseas;
around you, close your eyes to wha-
you cannot help and let there be JOY
in memory, in imagination, in hope
in faith. For at the bottom of hap
piness comes the willingness to b.
happy. 1t is greater than all.-Mil

HAS BROKEN THE RECORD.

One Of the most decisive victories
OF the recent election was that won
by Judge VIM. H. Thompson for
United States senator. The most
striking feature of his victory is the
fact that he received the largest ma
JCrity ever given a Democrat in Kan
sas. 1t is pleasure to the Demo-
Gratis to know that the year of 1912
has thus broken the record in the
vote polled and it is a great compli-
ment to Judge Thompson in that he
has been so Overwhelmingly endorsed.
The people of Kansas knew exact
ly what they were doing when by over
10000 majority they expressed a
choice for United States senator.
These same people will be watching
the Kansas legislature and will know
BY its action who believes in the rule
Of the people and who does not. No
self-respecting Democrat or Republi.
can can honestly go back on the
choice of the people so emphatically
expressed at the polls. II the spirit
Of the Oregon law, now in force in
Kansas, is followed, no caucuses can
be held or no other name mentioned
Or presented to the legislature by
either Democrats or Republicans. II
tie express directions of the people
are followed, there will be no hesita.
ton or quibbling when the legislature
meets and Judge Thompson will be
given the unanimous vote of both
houses.

EVENING CHAT.
By Ruth Cameron

To the person with a large circle Cf
friends the problem of a wedding pres
ent often becomes almost as acute
both for the brains and the pocket
book as the what-shall-Lgive-for
Christmas puzzle, especially in such
popular mating times as these au-
tumn months.
Unfortunately can't help the peck
etbook side of the problem, but I'm
going to make bold to offer a few sug-
gestions for the mental part Of it.
Since the rebirth Of the fireplace
is an important part of the; home, and
irons, tongs, bellows, in short, any,
thing for the fireplace is likely TO be
more than a welcome gift and not
a particular common one.
Good reference books such as a
dictionary, all encyclopedia, thesau-
rus, a book of classical reference or
OF quotations make wedding gifts for
which the recipients will probably be
grateful to you every time they con-
suit them.
Pictures are a beautiful gift but a
trifle dangerous. However, if you go
to a first class picture store and
trust yourself to an intelligent clerk
and tell him to pick out something
safe, you can't go far astray. You
may not select one Of the brides IA
vcrites,. but you won't get a picture
that will be banished to the store
room and be brought out only for
your visit.
Some kind of mirror, a triple toilet
mirror, or one Of those quaint, Old
fashioned gilt affairs, makes a very
acceptable gift.
know one bride who exchanged a
picture which she dislfked for mir
ror. you get tired of the best pic
lures" her mother said, "but you'll
never get tired OF that"
Vases appeal to me as an especial
ly attractive gift.
II you like something quaint and a
bit different, see what the japanese
stores have to offer.
For an inexpensive wedding present
| know of nothing that makes a bet
ter showing than a half a dozen frap-
pc glasses. As all kinds Of deserts
can be served in them they are ex'
tremely useful and they can be bought
for SO up. Several brides have told
me that they have enjoyed their
frappe glasses more than any other
gift.
A table mirror for. the center Of the
table is another inexpensive but very
acceptable present.
Remember that the value Of gift
Is practically doubled when 1t is just
what the recipient wants. And II you
are sufficiently well acquainted, ask
the brides mother or sisters, or init
mate friends. for suggestions.
Don't be afraid to give something
that represents labor instead OF mon
ey. People are doing that more ever.

ancient as history itself. When We

and all other ancient peoples. So
strong was the art, or science. that
1t refused to 90 down in the gen.
eral smash-up at the close Of the
old Roman rule, but held on and
was powerful all through the mid

that the old scence Of the stars and
