Excitable and Pleasure
Loving People Are Inter-
ested in United States
Methods They See in the
Movies.
By JAMES III. COLLINS.

Lima, Peru, April 3.-'The best re-
tail grocery stores in South Amer
ica," declares an American distrib-
uting food specialties, speaking OF
Lima. Run by Italians. they carry
splendid stocks, we'll displayed,
clean, with full lines of Chicago
meats, Pittsburg pickles, California
canned goods. The grocery distrib
utor in Lima cannot complain about
lack of outlets. One interesting
point is that American specialtIes,
though not cheap. are found in gro-
ceries even through the poorer quar-
ters.
Lima women used to wear a black
mantle covering head and face, with
enc eye peeping out. Now they wear
small lace mantillas to church. 1t
Is fun to see the humble little
daughters of the poor initiate them
with any chance fragment of black
mosquito netting, worn with very
much manner. New York girls copy
the grande dame, but not those of
London and Paris or Berlin. Lima
does 1t, but not Buenos Ayres-it is
a strong dash of character.
Peruvians are fun-loving. They
love the "chispa," or spark of '. it
they are as instant and energetic in
their antipathies. If the bull fight
is not exciting enough, they try to
burn the grandstand. There Is a Pc
destal and a marble chair In Lima.
Once the statue of Peruvian Presi-
dent was seated in the chair. But
the President became unpopular. and
a stick of dynamite blew him clean
ly out Of his seat. 1t is one Of rhe
sights OF the city-and a vivid in
sight into Peruvian character.
Electric light is very costly in
Lima. But long festoons of incan-
descents across the plaza are lit for
celebrations, day as we'll as night,
while the Presidential palace Is out
lined by thousands of lights. Noting
this love of illuminations, one won
ders where our electrical statesmen
are and why they have not shown
all South America how to get more
beautiful effects with half the cur
rent through flood lighting.
Lots of American News.
Among all the South American
capitals, Lima newspapers carry tho
least cable news from the United
States. though they are closest to
New York. Evidently a sales job for
our press association, for interest in
our affairs is shown in the large
amount OF American mail and re-
print news.
Our brunettes are afraid of laven-
der-they think IL makes them look
tco dark. But the brunettes OF Peru
love the color, and 1t sets off their
beauty. So do the brunettes of
Chile, though neither Is on speaking
terms in any other respect. Paris is
taking more and more of it's clothe $
out of our movies nowadays. HIRE
are two facts which manufacturers
Of fabrics and clothes may be able
to couple together.
An American woman who had
hired a Cholo servant from Are
quipa was trying to astonish him
by explaining some of the wonders
OF New York. among other. things
our elevators. There Is not an ele-
vator in Arequipa, and only one In
Lima. But the Cholo boy would not
be sstonished. He knew all about
elevators-had seen them up in Are
quipa, he said, in the movies!
Lima Is in earthquake territory.

men were lying under a tree, munching

and the others having only burlap wrap

stacked up against the tree. This was

Secretary Bakers EuloEy.

Tribute to the life and achievements
of Maj. Gen. William c. Gorgas, who
died Saturday in London. was paid
by Secretary Baker in the following
statement:
The death of Maj. Gen. Gorgas
closes a career of great distinction.
The works of Gen. Gorgas in the
Canal Zone made the completion of
the canal possible and saved thou
sands of lives. 1t would be impossi-
BILE even to estimate the lives saved
| by his subsequent pursuit of yellow
fever prevention. His work has prac-
! tically made an historic disease of
! what was once virulent plague. AL
I though a physician and scientist Gen.
Gorgas was in every sense a soldier.
Military men and military things had
his sympathetic interest, and he car
ried over into his scientific and hu-
imanitarian pursuits the zeal and
courage of the soldier. He was cour-
| teous, high-minded, scholarly and
Jealous. and the withdrawal Of his
fine enthusiasm is a distinct loss to
modern medicine, just as his great
career is an inspiration to doctors
and soldiers alike

Why this Good Old Wiedemann's
is Fully Fermented

We know of but one way of making
Wiedemann's - the old, time-tested,
proven way that has been endorsed by
four generations of Wiedemann con-
noisseurs.
That's why we thoroughly ferment
this fine, true brew exactly as we did
fifty years ago, when we first began the
making of it.
For full fermentation is essential to
body and flavor.
Your physician will tell you, too,
that it is necessary for another reason.
Sugar will ferment ultimately. fcon-
sumed raw it is converted into alcohol
during the digestive process.
Consequently, as your doctor will
verify, beverages containing unfer-
mented sugar are likely to react after

they will continue to do so until the
end Of the campaign.
Selection OF the date was made by
Senator Harry S. New. chairman OF

lican national committee. He ex-
planned he had chosen it because it
was the anniversary of tho adoption
OF the United States constitution.

any other form OF government ever
devised or that can be devised" Sem

publicanism in every county Of the
United States. according to our plans.
Men and women of nationwide
repute will speak in the larger cities.

Senator New explained that there
would, of course. be some prelimin-
airy speaking, but that his committee
would make no general effort before
the day named.

Mrs. Longworth, although the

no active interest In politics until her
arrival in Chicago recently. A visit
paid to the womens headquarters in
the Auditorium hotel aroused her In
