The plaza Of Santo Tomas Chichi-
castenango, a village hidden far
back in the mountains of Guate-
mala. is the scene of the largest
and most elaborately costumed In
dian market in Central America. On
Thursdays and Sundays it draws
as many as 5000 traders and farm
erS from an area of several hun
dred square miles.
Mingling here on market days are
Indians from scores of villages,
each dressed in a different manner.
To the stranger it is dreamlike and
unreal. One has the feeling that
this is the opening scene of a new
opera; that presently trumpet will
blow. an orchestra will begin to
play and all these earnest people
will drop their bargaining to burst
forth in full-throated songl
Back of the gay trappings and the
romancing of visitors, however, the
workaday life of simple but in
duStrious people moves on. In long
rows the women squat on the hard
earth. their wares piled before
them. Some are protected from the

1t would be year before his sue

was all too short in which to say his

He spent the year putting his af-

And at the end of the year his
successor came On board the old
San Carlos arrived his old friend
Captain Romeu, who had persuaded
Eulalia so long ago to come to Cal

A few days later the San Carlos

The Milk Tree

The milk tree, which grows in

beneficial of all trees in the world
to man.
This tree bears a delicious edi-

Strawberries and cream. It's trunk
yields as fine bowl of milk as any
cow ever produced and the ma
tives rely entirely on these trees
for their milk supply.
The milk thus obtained will
stand for eight weeks before turn

forms a solid white wax, of which
the natives make candles.
The timber of this tree, which
normally attains a height of a
hundred feet, is valuable for ship

CHAPTER XXVIU

Waiting restlessly for Eulalia to
come to him, Don Pedro rode out
to his vineyard in the bright spring
morning. He left his horse and
walked alone among the green
vines. Tenderly he looked at them,
admiring their robust growth, touch

leaf there. He knelt down on the
earth beside a young vine and

NA an escort service, told me that the women who call her New York office to engage an escort for the eve- ming have very decided ideas of what they want in a man. (Even though they are to spend only one evening with him0
 The woman who hires escorts is usually over thirty and one of two types - the wife whose husband either hasn't time to take her around or fatly refuses to, and the successful career woman who likes to spend an occasional evening with a man who will listen while she talks.
 Instead of asking for "a young man" as you might suppose, the women usually say they would like a man who knows something about whatever they are interested in. But they do specify "a tall man, please"
 If they are going dancing, they demand a good dancer. It's bad enough to be stepped on and walked around when the man is paying for the privilege. When the woman pays she makes certain there'll be none of that.
 They all expect, of course, that the man will have perfect manners. And that he will be equal to the occasion if the woman wants to in troduce him as "an old friend" Women don't mind paying for a mans companionship but tn ey aren't willing to admit to their

WOMAN,S REALM=

 Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA Service Staff Writer


 This is the season when the aver age woman becomes acutely aware of minor skin defects. A new suit, new bonnet and brighter sunshine which does not conceal blemishes as did the cold, grayiSh light of winter seem to make everyone more com- plexion- conscious. Opportune enough therefore is the appearance on the cosmetic market of new treatment to eliminate blackheads.
 The routine requires use of two inexpensive preparations - one a liquid, the other a powder-sold to- gether in a small box. After you have washed your face, mix the two together to form enough smooth paste to cover completely any areas in which pores are clogged. Let dry, then remove with warm water.
 If skin is very oily, repeat the treatment every night for week twice a week thereafter. If quite dry, use every other night for week-once 8 week form then on until pores have shrunk back to normal and there's not blackhead in sight. Don't smooth the paste from throat to hairline as you do a mask. Simply cover excessively oily spots, those where pores seem very large or quite clogged with dirt and dust.
 Always after application of a mask and usually after treatment similar to the new blackhead one, the dry skin should be patted with rich night cream. For oily complex ions, there are special night creams, usually medicated.
 Naturally, it's mistake to expect any treatment to remove all black heads immediately. It took the dirt some time to collect in the pores, and it's likely to take almost as much time to get every last bit of it out. Whatever you do, do not squeeze blemishes so hard that the skin surrounding them is brushed. And always pat on some kind of antiseptic after even the gentlest pinch.

 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 What Now Little Man? Had my tonsils removed by dia- thermy three years ago. At any rate the doctor, who was going away, told me they were out. But lately I have had a sore throat, and the doc- tors call it streptococcus and look in my throat and say the tonsils were not removed at all. . co. w. S.
 Answer-When a doctor looks in the throat, after tonSillectomy of any kind, and talks like that, the little man is trying to raise his own stock at the expense of others. No matter what method is used, there is nearly always more or less tonsil tissue left in the throat after the operation. In your place, notWith- standing what all the little men say I'd have nothing but diathermy ex- tirpati of the tonsil tissue, If there is good reason to believe 1t IS infected.
