provided with means of transportation.
Up through the middle of the city runs
the elevated trestle. under which
scores OF warehouses and shops uti-
lie the covered space. and on this
four-track trestle electric and steam
trains enter and leave in steady
streams. The streets are filled with
automobiles, mOtortrucks, bicycles,
man-drawn cars--every type of vehicle
except the baby carriage. The baby
carriage OF Japan is the mothers back
or the daddy's shoulder, and have no
doubt that this closeness Of mother
and child throughout months aud
years has much to do with the excel
lent behavior Of the bright little ba-
bfes. Street cars pass given point
every minute or two, and at crossing
there are always a half dozen big
trains in sight.

Andean keyhoIes.

A curiosity Of the Andean villages
are the doors Of the houses which are
hard to open and hard to close, but
which. despite the intricacy Of the
locks, admit the air freely on all sides.
Harry A. Franck describes one such
door, writing in the Century Magazine
Of the town Of San Pablo, Colombia.
1.-The keyhole was in the shape Of a
swan; others in tho town. and all
through Narino, have the form Of a
man, horse, goose ana dozen other
ludicrous shapes. These homemade
doors Of Andean villages never fit cas-
lily, and their locks always have some
peculiar idiosyncrasy Of their own, 80
that by the time the traveller learns
to unlock the door Of his lodging with
out native assistance he IL ready to
move on"
