This picture Of Montezuma, the last
king Of the Azteos, Is believed by most
authorities to be not an actual like
ness made by a Spanish artist, but a
fanciful sketch.
OF a pomp and luxury that impressed
even the travelled Spaniards. His
capital Mexico, was built on a small
island in the middle of saltwater
lake. Great stone causeways equip
ped with drawbridges connected the
city with the mainland; as the cap
ital grew larger new buildings had
been erected on pilings, so that the
city was veritable Venice. Flowers
banked the fat roofs and hung in gar.
lands on the temple walls; even the
human victims whom the Aztecs sac.
rificed to their strange gods of stone
we're. decked in flowers.
The rulers of the land lived in great
splendor in this land of flowers. The
EULER was chosen by a quartette Of
mobiles, and was generally nephew Of
the preceding king. He must have
distinguished himself In war or in
the service Of the gods before be-
ing eligible to this high honor When
Montezuma was chosen king in 1902,
he had done both these things; as a
young man he had been active in the
constant petty wars which the Mex.
leans carried on with the tribes around
them, and later he had devoted him.
self to the service Of the gods. When
the mobiles came to tell him he had
been chosen king they found him
sweeping the steps of the great cen.
trail temple Of the capital.
Once chosen king. however, he set
tied back into life of idleness and
luxury. He was surrounded with
every comfort. Spanish chroniclers
tell how he changed his robe four
times day and never wore the same
robe twice. The dishes from which
he ate never appeared again on the
royal table; they were given to his
favorite mobiles.
Montezuma was generous in his
treatment of Mexico and the territory
Immediately surrounding it, In outly.
ing provinces, however. his tax col.
ectors made life hard for the people.

T1HE first deadly mistake of matri-

TO MARRY ON AN INSUFFI-
LENT INCOME.
Matrimony. has its commercial as
well as it's sentimental side. and while
mere money alone will not make a
happy marriage. neither will love
alone. 1t takes food to supply the
nesrt throbs and at the bottom of
every successful marriage there must
De strong financial plank capable of
supporting a comfortable home.
OF course. the lovers view of life
IS all circling wings and golden
glory, and poetry, and romance He
feels, while he is still counting a girl,
hat nothing else matters but the
bliss of calling her his own. He be-
ieves that he can disdain such ma
teriai things as food, and clothes, and
houses. and 1t is no trick at all to
persuade a girl. who has no worldly
experience, into accepting this point
of view.
So In a trance of joy, literally
doped with sentiment, they marry
with sort of sublime faith that

Ing stops the processes of nature. We
get hungry. we get cold. we crave the

tastes after marriage as we did be-
fore, and the plain, hideous fact stares
is in the face that when we have
not the money to supply these ne
ceesities we are not happy. no matter

NOT ROMANTIC.
1t isn't romantic-tt even fills you
with a deep disgust for the weakness
of human nature, but the truth re-
mains that we have to be physically
