LAND OF BEAUTY
Traveller Writes of Art Treasures
:: n Old Mexico.
Among Them, cathedrals and Churches
'sas Fine; or Finer, Than. Any

The guileleSs tourist who throngs
European picture galleries, because he
is told it is the proper thing to do, will,
some day, when he has got it out Of
his head that Mexico is a nation entire
ly inhabited by murderers, find
that there are artistic treasures just
as worth while only a little way across
the Rio Grande There are hun
dred great churches and cathedrals
more beautiful than any Yet dreamed
of in his own country; there are pyr-
amids that rival Cheops and bas-re-
Iiefs as striking as anything Nineveh
could show: above all, for those in
search Of beauty in common things;
there are a dozen haSdicrafts. the
products whereof would drive collee-
tors mad with rapture if they we're
bought in Naples or Ishpahan. The
blanket serapes worn by the men are
familiar, chiefly through machine-made
limitations; less so the rehosos worn
by the women; Of a special interest
as showing the blending of East and
West is the native pottery. as for eX-
ample, the beautiful Talayera and
Madeiar ware. Although the intro
duction of this is usually ascribed TO
the Dominican monks, its Spanish or
Arabic influence is, in actual fact,
merely overlaid upon the very much
more ancient native craft of which
examples are still preserved In the
National museum and elsewhere.
