n z MATIN, Paris.-Of all tradi-
tons, culinary ones perhaps are
the last to pass away. Pancakes
IL continue to be the provender of
masqueraders and the goal of
horseback riders. Easter eggs still en-
thrall each new generation of children
and the older people, too, and eternal
popularity is assured the midnight repast
on Christmas eve. Women should guard
all these old customs Vigilantly, belong
ing, as they do, to their domain, the
hearth. 1t is an excellent thing to have
different little family anniversaries
commemorated with something special
ly good to eat. Nothing keeps family
more united. Henry w was shrewd
King the day he laid aside his plume
for a moment and provided chicken
for the pots of all his subjects.
New Method
Devised 10 Teach Dancing.
Ell Sol, Madrid.-A new method of
learning to dance has been invented
by the German professor, Walter Car
los. The ball room floor is painted in
white and black squares after the man
ner of a checkerboard, each square large
enough to accommodate the length OF
a persons foot. The squares, upon
which the dancers foot should glide
successfully, are numbered in accord
ance with a certain scheme, thus en-
abling the novice to learn the dance
steps, at least of any modern measures,
in very short time.

Speedy Autobus
Deadly in Very Nature.
Ell Mercurio, Santiago.--It seems that
the new, smooth-running and powerful
autobus is always the autobus which
does not wish to stop at the street on
which we live and carries us on 10
the next ward. This autobus, so dis
regarding and so dangerous, Is not ex-
elusive with us. They have 1t in every
country. With its audacity, weight and
speed, it is deadly in its very nature.
I believe that the autobus which OF
fers greatest security to passengers,
either actual or potential, is the de-
crepit vehicle of the same order, Whlch
travels slowly because it can't go last
and which shakes pieces of its construc-
ton loose at every revolution OF the
wheels, as If 1t we're afflicted with some
mysterious disease.
In the garage the mechanics labor
without being able to find out just
what is the cause of its decomposition,
Just as doctors are unable to restore
to health young ladies who have fallen
into extremes Of melancholy.
