Beauty In the Mexican's Voice.

Next to the love of dress, | was most
struck with the ineness OF the voice
and the beauty of intonations of both
sexes (of the Mexicans). 1t is pleas
ure simply to listen to the sound of the
language before | could attach any
meaning to it. They have good deal
of the creole drawl tut it is varied,
with an occasional extreme rapidity OF
utterance. in which they seem to skip
from conSonant to consonant until,
lighting upon a broad open vowel, they
rest upon that to restore the balance
of sound A common bullock driver
delivering a message seemed to speak
like an ambassador at an audience. In
fact, they sometimes appeared to me
to be a people on whom curse had
fallen and stripped them of every
thing but their pride, their manner and
their voices.-"Three Years Before the

Curious Golf, Shot.

The late lord chief justice, Lord Al
verstone. being one of the judges at
the Birmingham assizes, in the inter
walls Of business had several rounds OF
golf on the Edgbaston links On one
Of these occasions he was playing with
the local professional and got rather
badly bunkered at the second hole.
1t was necessary, In order to get the
ball out, to make 1t rise almost per
pendicularly into the air, and for this
purpose Lord Alverstone. or Sir Rich
ard Webster. as he then was, took b. J
niblick and made a mighty stroke. No
conjurer on earth could have done a
trick more neatly. The ball not only
leaped into the air, but dropped as
clean as q whistle into the judges

A Strange Rock Dweller.

One Of the strangest creatures known
to science Is the pholas. or boring
clam. When still very minute the ami.
NAL bores into the sandstone lodges at
extreme low water, by means of its
sharp shell, which Is replaced by Sc
cretions as 1t is worn away. 1t pene-
trates the rock to a depth of six or
eight inches and hollows out its bur-
rows as 1t increases in size. Shaped
roughly like top. 1t could not leave
its rock dwelling even IL 1t wished to
do so. For food 1t depends on the ami.
malcules that float in sea water. which
it seizes by its long siphon. or tongue.
The pholas Is in great demand at the
seaside resorts along the Pacific coast,
for its meat is very tender and makes
excellent soup. The CLAIMS are dis
lodged in great numbers from the
lodges by the use of dynamite. al

with a pick or rowbar.-Exchange

Pepys at a Feast.

Pepys' account of the lord mayors
banquet which he attended in 1868 IL
Illustrates the earliness of the proceed
ings at that time. He made his way
to the Guildhall at noon, went up
and down to see the tables" and then
had drink. refusing wine in conse
quence of vow, but persuading his
conscience that he might indulge in
hippocras, compound OF wine and
spices. Soon after l o'clock came the
lord mayor, land so all to dinner"
Afterward Pepys strolled about the la
dies room. but could not discern one
handsome face there and. being
wearied with looking upon a company
of ugly women" went off to Cheapside
to see the pageants, which were very
silly" Thus the lord mayors show in
those days came after dinner.-London

Beautiful Land of Alsaes.

This land of Alsace Is in many re-
spects the most beautiful that | have
ever seen. Strung along the horizon
like sentinels wrapped in nantes OF
green. the peaks of the Vosges loom
against the sky. On the slopes of the
ridges. massed in their black battal-
ions, stand forests of spruce and pine.
Through peaceful valleys silver
streams meander leisurely, and in the
meadows which border them cattle
stand knee deep amid the lush green
grass. The villages. their tortuous.
cobble paved streets. lined on either
side by dim arcades. and the old, old
houses. with their turrets and balco-
MES and steep pitched pottery roofs,
give you the feeling that they are not
real, but that they are scenery on
stage. and this Illusion is heightened
by the men in their jaunty berets and
wooden sabots, and the women whose
huge black silk headdresses accentuate
the freshness of their compilations. 1t
is at once a region of ruggedness and
majesty and grandeur, Of quaintness
and simplicity and charm.-F. Alex

Girls In Korea.

Girls In Korea have no names or

Marys or Mabels or Ruths. The little
ones are given pet names at their
birth, and these they bear until they
are ten years old. after which they are
no longer used After her tenth birth

girl baby" The latter title is consid-
cred the more honorable.
If there are several daughters in the
family they are distinguished by such
words as big" fOr the eldest)., "sec-

marriage they are known by their hus-

Leapinu Treason.

King William III. of England was
passionately fond of the chase and
made it point never to be outdone
In any leap, however perilous. A Mr..
Cherry, who was devoted to the ex-
lied Stuarts, took advantage Of this
to plan the most remarkable design
which was ever formed against q
kings life He regularly joined the
royal hounds. put himself foremost
and took the most desperate leaps in
the hope that William might break
his neck in following him. One day,
however. he accomplished one so i'm
minently dangerous that the king when
he came to the spot shook his head
and drew back. 1t is said that Mr..
Cherry at length broke his own neck
and thereby relieved the king from
further hazard.

Japan's Dragon Lamps.

Japan abounds with sacred places
Shintoist and uddhist-formerly re-
puted for the appearances of the so
called dragons lamp" This is mys.
ferrous light that comes out of pond
lake or sea and alights on a certain
tree. mostly on certain night. 1t was
held that the light was dedicated by
dragon dwelling in the water to
god whose shrine stood near the trees.
For example. the famous Ryuto OF the
temple of Avalokitesvara on Nagusa
hill, province of Xii, made its annual
ascent from the sea to pine tree In
the precincts every ninth night of the
seventh moon. At the midnight OF the
10th of every month a Ryuto came
from the northeast offing to the 50

Mexico City II AGED,

Mexico City is traditionally nearly
600 years old. 1t was founded when
the Aztecs settled on an island near
Lake Tezcoco. Cortez practically de-
stroyed the city in 1921. From this
time on there was hardly a break In
the ordinary events until 1892. when
there was a revolt against Spanish
rule. Later it was the scene of many
revolutions and much bloody fighting
until the iron rule Of Porfirio Diaz
made revolutions for thirty years some
what improbable ventures. In the
war between the United States and
Mexico the principal movement of the
American troops was directed against
Mexico City. After capturing the hill
of Chapultepec by assault General
Scott occupied the city Sept IA. 1S47.

usina the Expression ~ Think"


A man was referred to as one who
in his conversation never says Il think"
so and So The think" Is mere ex
pletive. A positive, clear headed man
saws what he thinks without saying he
thinks. Besides, when a person premises
with an Il think" II weakens his as
sertion because thinking is by no means
an assurance of truth Ii one should
say Il think 1t will rain tomorrow"
the very expression carries doubt be-
cause mere opinion is lame matter.
and the world is chock full of opinions
If. however. he should say 1T will rain
tomorrow" 1t carries some assurance
even If ii is. after all, an opinion. So
the man referred to In the first place
doesn't say II think" for 1t is entirely
superfuous, and he adds force and
dignity to what he says in emitting it
entirely And then when one looks at
the situation calmly he will conclude
that think" is much under cloud since
very few people think exactly alike.
