These people are of retiring dis
position, rarely visiting the communi-

at them and their dress. In the

Portuguese and American commercial

The natives do not overwork,

chihuahua Is Smallest.

The smallest of all recognized breeds
of dogs is the Chihuahua, which is also
one of the most intelligent Of all the
canine family. This breed is product
Of Mexico and is named after north
ern country where there are thousands
OF these little dogs running wild and
multiplying each year. 1t seems re-
markable thing that in spite Of the
fact that they have never had any
dog shows in Mexico, one only has to
visit that country and try to purchase
a really good, typical little Chihuahua
from a native to realize that the Next
cans know the worth Of this dog Of his
own country. How these dogs were
bred probably never will be known.
Some authorities have intimated that
they were bred some generations back
from large squirrels, and this view is
borne out by the fact that at one time
these dogs ran wild in the woods and
that the Chihuahua is nearly as pro-
ficient in running up trees as the squir-

Il You Need a Medicine

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out

reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy II

PersonI Influence.

To influence others one must have
hearty fellow feeling for them. be
willing to extend helping hand as oc-
casion demands, to cheer, to comfort,
to console. Which means that imag-
nation also counts for much FIN the
exercising of personal influence. The
unimaginative can never be genuinely
sympathetic. Sincerity, common sense,
forcefulness, courage, self-confidence,
decision, sympathy, keenness of imag-
ination-these above aught else are the
qualities that need to be cultivated by
all who would draw on the aid of per-
sonal influence in pressing forward to
the goal Of success.

IRMEN are preparing to make

predict that this garden spot
OF the Atlantic, with it's mild climate
and other health giving qualities, win
become the stopover for all overseas
travel by airplane and dirigible. They
point out that the exploit Of the United
States navy in effecting crossing has
virtually put the islands on the map,
as far as the general public is con-
cerned; that for many years problems
Of construction will limit the over
seas route to the Azores, where fuel
and other supplies may be replenish-
ed, says the New York Tribune.
Rising to height Of more than
1000 feet-as in the case of Pico-
and at the lowest $50 feet above sea
level, as the island Of Corvo, the is
lands form an oasis in a desert of wa
ter and mist and heavy banks Of clouds
clouds that rise off the water in the
morning and blot out everything from
view, narrowing the horizon to a few
feet for the anxious aerial pilot and his
navigator.
Already navigators are at work on
instruments to eliminate these diff
culties. They count on the Azores with
all Of its mists and clouds to furnish
them with correct weather reports,
radio stations and rescue ships in case
Of accident to the planes.
Pleasant Place for stopover.
And stopover at the Azores will
not be in the nature Of hardship to
overseas passengers. What would a
tourist find, for example, If his plane
dropped him at Ponta Delgada, the
capital of st. Michael's? On ap-
preaching the islands he would find
great cloud Of dense, gray mist resting
on the horizon. Nearer it becomes
reddish brown dotted with moldy
green.
Veering to the southeast toward
Ponta Delgada he would see the city
first as formal white line, or, If the
gaze could pierce the cloud, it would
be a broken line extending back from
the sea wall with a series of white
splotches, small conical hills of bright
green and stiff white houses edged with
black trimmings.
The white lines would become
walls the next instant, disclosing
orange gardens, and the passenger
would drop into little harbor clut-
tered with tramp sailing ships Of
half-dozen nations. The harbor is
