Yucatan Likes Wheat Bread,

Corn tortilla, for ages the favorite
bread of Yucatecans, is threatened by
a modern competitor. Little baking
is done in the homes Of Yucatan, the
frying pan being the standard nipple
ment of cookery. The simple but
wholesome Mexican tortilla is an ar
ticle Of general diet, but wheat bread
is now being widely consumed. The
wheat bread supply of the entire pen
insula Of Yucatan originates in
bakeries and consists principally Of
long, sour French loaves. According
to Consul o. G.. Marsh Of Progreso

TINE TO VIEW WITH ALARM
startling Exploit Of Pennsylvania Girl
Whose Fiancc Was In the
Sheriff's Custody.

Had an Oppenheim, Chambers or
. McGrath written tale few years
ago of girl who forced her way into
sheriff's home and then, single-hand-
ed, freed her fiance from the nearby
Jail with the aid of the keys and re-
volver she obtained in her hOuSebreak-
ing, readers would have been amused
at the idea a girl could do such a
thing.
But truth continues to make fiction
look silly. And times have changed
The Warren (Pa.) girl who did that
thing is type that the writer's Of
shockers have not caught up with as
yet. There are policewomen and
women deputy sheriffs today-also girl
bandits. Milady in her emancipated
state both enforces the laws and
breaks them. No task is too much for
her.
If the facts in this case were as they
are told, here was love laughing at the
locksmiths and the sheriff and all the
embattled array of the forces Of law
and order. That's the way the movie
scenario writer's would look at it.
Many other persons will take that in
judicial attitude toward the exploit of
this lass, too.
But are not the ladies going a bit
too far? Nobody, not even judges and
juries, have objected very strenuously
so far to women shooting up their hus.
bands at odd times, even to their
shooting up other peoples husbands
But if they are to be permitted to
break open the jails to get their
chosen ones out of durance. of what
use will be jails or policemen or laws
even?-Buffalo Evening News.

This relic Of days gone by was built

simplicity, quaintness and picturesque

of the Fairbanks family.
Like many old-time structures, the
main portion is hanked on two sides
by wings and the pitch roof Of the
middle section extends very near to
the ground in the rear. The front side
contains eight windows and no two of
them are alike. AS If to have an in
dfviduality all its own, a time-honored
practice was departed from in that
neither the front door nor the chin
ney are in the exact center of the
house. Curiously, also, the doorways
are exceptionally low-persons of or
binary height having to bend slightly
on entering.
Some of the rooms never have been
plastered and the beams and rafters
show overhead. Over the fireplace In
the quaint little parlor swings a wood

pended over the fire for cooking pur-
