Two Mexican Bows

BY SARAH NOBLE IVES
Al the Great House Juan lives with his parents,
I oenor ana bona Cadorez. He was baptized with
great many more than I can tell Won
about and he fine clothes and has non, of III;
own There are many toys his corner of the patio
and he has silk lasso, with which, for how Of +weve
he has no little skill.
Afternoons, when it is hottest, everybody takes
sesta (Which IS Mexican nap) and in the cool of the
twilight Juan and his father and mother walk down tho
broad stairway that starts from the second story to
where Pablo is waiting below with the sadded horses
They mount and ride out and look the great
hacienda or farm that stretches for miles and miles,
further than the eye with cotton fields
banana and delicious pineapple plantations, and TALL
prlcky cactus hedges to keep out strangers
Pedro of the Adobe Hut
But Pedro lives in of the little adobe huts where
all the poems quartered They are descendants Of
the old Mexlcans who were long conquered by the
Spanlards Early in the morning. when the dawn is COM
ing up over the mesa plain, Pedro's mother rolls
him off his rug rolls it up and stands it in the CORNER
with her and his fathers the beds are made up
for the day With gourd she dips water from
the red oa or earthen JAR and makes Pedro wash his
face in the wooden trough by the door. Then Jose
Pedros father, comes with the milk and Pedro takes it
to the Great House, hurrying back for his own break
fast.
In the mean time Pedro's mother has swept out the
of their house Breakfast served under the
ng tree She brings out the brasero, stove which is
boxlke arrangement made of stones and clay In it
she makes tiny fire and heats yesterdays torti]las
(tat cakes made of CORN She rolls these around few
BEANS gives them dash of chilli sauce lays them on the
flat stone under the fig tree and breakfast is ready
Nobody finds any fault, because breakfast is ALWAYS
the same Lunch is also tortlas beans and chill sauce
and dinner is beans, tortillas and chill Sometimes
for treat there potatoes canded in syrup
but that is usually for party
A School or Lunatic Asyl,m?
Pedro has lasso too, SO beautiful as Juans but

he is skilfu with it, the goat knows to his
sorrow But to-day is school day and instead of play
ing he must get little learning into his head. If you
should happen by the door of the little schoohouse
when it in session. you would think you had stumbled
on unatic asylum, for Pedro and Lupto and Josefa
and Teresa and Maria and all the rest studying at
the top of their lungs. Pedro rather likes school and
would like to go longer and learn more, but
studies after the sixth grade and few beyond the
fourth The Senior that is enough learning for
and the school belongs to him.
Strange Holidays for Man and Beast
The padre looks after the pleasures of the people,
we'll their religion There many saints days and
of these highly exciting adventures There is
St. Ramon's Day. for instance when all the animals
the place taken to the large corras back of the
Great House be blessed that the and the goat
will give milk and the hens lay eggs and the
donkey grow good natured. Every animal must
be decorated The goat gets wreath of red green
