Woman and the Arts.

In the minor art CT dancing, and in
the nobler work Of reproducing the
music of the great composers, and in
acting the characters of the great dra-
matists, there are women Of high, and
even Of highest rank. But to leave
these more interpretive or reproIuc-
tive arts, only in fiction does she ap-
proach the mark Of men. For here
she must be counted with the great
of the craft. And even should some
grabbed soul insist that the rare COM
pany in which are George Eliot, Jane
Austen, George Sand, Madame de
Stael, and the queen of Navarro, does
not include the one who is greatest
in the guild, yet there is no discom-
fort felt in naming these women along
with Scott and Dickens, Hugo, Ger
vantes, and Boccaccio. But speak of
the other creative arts, and we feel at
once the chill. Chaminade looks ill
at ease in the presence of Beethoven;
Joanna Baillie, with Shakespeare; An.
gelika Kaufman, with Michelangelo.

SnaiIs Very Nutritious.

"All snails are edible and nutri-
tious,' says Canon Hershey in a book
on British land and fresh water mol
luscs, just published. He goes on to
say that even the common or garden
snail, though insipid, is as nourishing
as calf's-fOOt jelly.
There is large white-shelled snail
called Helix pomatia that is common
ly eaten by connoisseurs in the South
Of England y, while all over France,
Italy and Spain several species ara
used as food. In France there are
many small farms which yield good
profit to their owners. In the French
and Italian quarters Of New York
snals may be bought, either alive or
cooked, and at most of the French
restaurants they are served, oscar
gots farcis" being the most usual
form Of dish.
Snails are easy to raise in large
quantities. They need lime for max
ing their shells, but they do not have
to be fed, as they can find their own
food, which is exclusively the leaves
Of many plants. They are most deli
cious when properly prepared and
cooked, and, as Canon Hershey saya,
as nourishing as calfs-foot jelly.

/ transit, the animal would be tipped
over into the River Esprito Santo a
thousand feet below.
From Sal-si-puede onward the mules
waded streams, floundered through
mud to their middles and labOred over
fallen logs, often on trail so narrow
and so overgrown that it was neces-
sary constantly to use the machete to
clear the path Of hanging vines and
dense undergrowth On one occasion
after eight hours of scrambling and
wading through mud and water, Mr..
Cherries mule slipped in deep pool
of thin mud and became tangled in the
| roots at the bottom, pinning the foot
Of the rider under it. Mr.. Cherrie was
held up there deep in the mud until
two mule drivers could return to extri-
| cato him.
The advantage of having compact
units of baggage was made evident In
this locality. The jamming Of baggage
tween saplings or in washed-out
gully would necessitate a halt and
while the load on the mule that had
caused the halt was being recinched.
dozen other mules would start ex-
ploring the neighboring thickets.
Sometimes the whole train would be
thrown into confusion and all the pack
animals would have to be rounded up
and the packs readjusted.
Animal and Bird Life.
There were no wild animals Of q
| hy oil
route. Along the banks Of the Chapare
we found evidences of tapir, paca,
capybara, jaguar tiger cat, peccary.
deer, cOati, agouti and others. but the
high water, which varies sometimes
! forty feet between seasons, had driver
game to the highlands, making hunt
ing possible only at the highest points
along the Mamore. Bird life was most
| abundant in Bolivia; a collector could
| spend several seasons to advantage In
| these little-traverscd routes across the
| South American states. When the in
cidental mishaps and inconveniences
are forgotten, the Bolivian fungas be-
tween TOdOs Santos and the Chepare
may we'll be compared with other
natural wonders. Daily the vistas OF
palm, fern and floral growth, with cas-
cades, waterfalls and freshets, make
a delightful background for the abun-
dant bird and other animal life.
At the beginning of the Chapare the
Yungas disappeared and our arriero
now led the way down the river bed,
or through the cane and bamboo
brakes, pushing on through mud and
water. Due to good chance our camps
remained above water except in two
instances. One night in particular the
rains filled the Esprito Santo and San
Antonio rivers and left us in three feet

ing in great luxuriance, while the
whole landscape assumes the aspect OF
a flower garden.
One of the most interesting trees to
be found on the mountain slopes of Du-
range is species of pine, the needles
of which the Indians and Mexicans boil
and use as remedy for stomach trou-
bles. It's taste is like that of anise
seed. The wood of these trees is much
used by the Indians in the manufac-
ture of their primitive violins.
One of the products Indigenous to
Durango, but one OF which the state
does not boast, is a venOmous species
of scorpion whose sting is almost in
variably fatal in the warm regions OF
the state, but which is more painful
than dangerous in the higher and cool
er attitudes. In the vicinity of Duran
go City $4,000 of these spiders are
killed annually, some of the natives
making a business of destroying them,
collecting from the municipality a
bounty of one centavo per scorpion.
City Has Wonderful Climate.
At an elevation Of 5000 feet, the city
of Durango, capital of the state, enjoys
a matchless climate, which has earned
it the sobriquet, town of sunshine"
1t is one of the oldest Spanish settle
ments in the republic, having been
founded by Captain Ibarra two years
before the followers of Don Pedro
Menendez de Aviles initiated the per-
manent colonization of the United
States at St. Augustine. The site OF
the present city was reached by the
adventurer and silverseeker, Mercado,
who in 1852 discovered the famous
Iron mountain of the suburbs. When
Ibarra arrived with his colonists the
country was occupied by nomadic saw
age tribes.
One of the odd customs of the Du-
range district is the funeral ceremony
for children. "An angel is being bur-
led" is the explanation which native
will give of gay procession headed
by a woman bearing aloft on a board
a bundle bound in white. The parents
Of the child are obligated to give it
joyfully to heaven, to the accompani-
ment of music and dancing. If there
is weeping the baby cannot enter para
disc until it has gathered all the tears.
One of the places of historic interest
is the town Of Santiago de Papasquia-
70, said to derive it's name from 'paz
quiero," meaning II want peace" The
phrase alludes to the defeat of the In
dians following massacre of the mis-
sionaries and a burning of the churches
by the Tepehuanes and Tarahumares
in 1916. After the outrage the Indians
gathered a force estimated at 25,OOO
and marched on Durango City. The
governor of the province, with 900 val
liant whites, determined to resist and
save the territory for Spain. In the
battle which followed, the Spanish
chroniclers declare, the governor COM
pletely overcame the insurgents, who
lost $4,000 men. After this overwhelm-
ing defeat the Indians wanted peace.
Durango derives its name from the
old Spanish town of thai name, in the
Basque provinces.
