Hypnotizng Il hen is II trick known
to most country boys. 1t is an old

laid hen on the table, held ii firmly

In India 1t is known that cobra
caught by the neck and gently pressed
will soon become stiff and remain so
for a considerable time, either cOiled
up or out straight.
A frog fastened to board and
turned suddenly upside down goes into
a trance. Other animals are suscel-
tlble to this treatment, some more
quickly than others.

male bending her legs over her abdO-

WHERE WOMEN SELECT MATE
In New Guinea II 10 Considered Be.
meath the Dignity Of Men to
Take Time to Court.

So far as proposals of marriage are
concerned. in New Guinea 1t is always
leap-year. for in that island the men
consider 1t beneath their dignity to no
tice women, much less to make over
lures OF marriage. Consequently, the
proposing is left to the women to do.
When the ebony belle falls in love
with man she sends piece of string
to his sister, or, II he has no sister,
to his mother, or another OF his lady
relatives.
Then the lady who receives the
string tells the dusky brave that the
particular damsel is in love with him.
No counting follows, however, for 1t is
considered beneath New Guinea gen
tlennan's dignity to waste time III such
n pursuit.
If the man thinks he would like to
we'd the lady. he meets her alone. and
they decide straight away whether to
marry or drop the idea.
In the former case the betrothal is
announced. The man is then braided

No breach-Of-promise actions are
possible In New Guinea, though If the
lady Is Tilted her friends may hunt her
lover up and "go" for him. On the

faithless, she is liable to he eaten by

"Ar. Secretary: ! have the homer

Of . note which l have just received
from my government, with instruc-
tiOns to present it to your excellency:
Mr.. Secretary: Referring to the
notes of June 20 and IS last. have
the honor to say to your excellency
that the immediate release OF the
Carrizal prisoners was a further
proof of the sincerity of the desires
of this government to reach a pacific
and satisfactory arrangement of pres
ent difficulties. This government ID
anxious to solve the present conflict
and it would be unjust If its attitude
were misinterpreted.
1t WAS also the Mexican government
that earnestly suggested plan for
cantonments along the boundary line
during the conferences of Ciudad
Juarez and FL Paso. This government
Is disposed now, as il has always been
to seek an immediate solution of the
two points which constitute the true
cause of the conflict between the two
countries, to wit: The American
government thinks reasonably that the
insecurity of its frontier is source
of difficulty and the Mexican govern
ment on its part believes that the stay
of American troops ON Mexican terri
the sovereignty of Mexico, is the I'M
mediate cause of the conflicts. There
core the withdrawal of American
II oops on one hand and the protection
of the frontier on the other, are the
two essential problems, the solution of
which must be the directing objects
of the efforts of both governments.
The Mexican government is willing
to consider in a quick and practical
way, and prompted by spirit of con.
cord, the remedies which should be
applied to the present situation.
Several Latin-American countries
have offered their friendly mediation
to the Mexican government, and the
latter has accepted 1t in principle.
Therefore. the Mexican government
only awaits Information that the gov
ernment of the United States would
be disposed to accept this mediation
for the purpose mentioned above or
whether 1t is still of the belief that
the same results may be attained by
means Of direct negotiations between
both governments.
In the meantime this government
purposes to employ all efforts that
may be at its disposal to avoid the re-
currence OF new incidents which may
complicate and aggravate the situa-
tion. At the same time it hopes that
the American government on its part
may make use Of all efforts to prevent
also new acts Of its military and civil
authorities Of the frontier that might
cause new complications.
