The lovt'iiiakiiiK of upper class Mexico is perforce done for all to see. It is practically impossible for lovers to have speech ipiite alone, and less so if they are en t;a",ed, than if their passion is un declared. An avowedly enamored couple must be under constant su pervision. A girl may not receive callers of the other sex save in the presence of a suitable chaperon, and this does not tend to make calling a favorite pastime with the men hard put to it though they are to fill their days. lixcept for the chances occasionally ollered the eyes must tell what the tongue may not. And all this has given arise to customs affording unmixed delight to the stranger who for the lirst time observes them. Those which are known as hacieiulo ileloso (playing the bearl, and pelando la pava (plucking the peacock,) are respectively talking through barred windows or strolling up and down beneath an inaccessible balcony. Hut it is tlecliando which awakens a yet greater sense of amusement. Literally translated it means "dart ling arrow-"- Cupid's dart, by in ference. Hut it is nothing more or less than staring one's lady love ! out of countenance with eyes which , express devotion in inverse ratio J to the number of times they wink. This form of courtship is chiefly resorted to in the plaa and in the ! theatre. 1 To the central plaza the Mexican ! girl goes upon those evenings i when the band plays. Here she j locks her arm in that of a friend or ; relative of her own sex and be I gins to walk along the broad pay- incut which surrounds the band I stand. Hefore long there is a steady, unbroken stream of lemini j ty moving in one direction and one ; of men, equally steady and un broken moving in the other. It is extremely rare for a man to join the women for more than a moment, and even this moment is not habitually seized. The whole satisfaction is derived from pass ing the beloved time and again, exchanging with her a meaning glance. U'liile the baud is not playing the women seat themselves upon the benches which line the promenade. Thereupon an ar dent suitor is expected to station himself opposite, and at once set about llcehando. Then in novel are lots of ideal husbands rorced to Leave Home.

" THE LOSTGHILD. I 'member when they cut my curls not very long ago, Because they looked just like a girl's and hn a boy, you know; I used to wear 'em awful long, and once my pa, he said, It's time 1 had my curls cut off and wore short hair instead; Because I'm big enough for thai; and then they took the shears And snipped my curls off one by one right close up to my ears. Hut every time a curl came oft', my mother, she just hid Her face a little bit and cried. I wonder why she did. And after 'while she picked one up and held it in her hand With something shining in her eyes I didn't understand; She petted it as if it was a little boy or girl, And acted fond of it when it was nothing but a curl. And after 'while they're all cut off and down there on the floor, And 1 looked much more like a boy than 1 had been before, Hut there was something in her eyes she tried and tried and tried To brush away, but still it came. I wonder why she cried. And after 'while I'm all trimmed off', and then my pa, he said, I'm not a baby any more, but I'm a boy instead. And he is awful proud of me; and then my ma, she smiled And said we found a boy that day and lost a little child; So I said I would hunt for him and bring him back, but then She said she was afraid that he would not come back again; And picked the curls I had all up from off the floor and hid Them in her bureau drawer and cried. I wonder why she did ? -J. W. Holey. It's the World's Hest. So one has ever made a salve, oint ment or halm to romparc with llnekli n's Arjiiea k':i!ve It th1 ,,n p1'1 'ee' h."il er ofl'uts.

TO Hi: IIONIiST Mark Tulley, state treasurer and , candidate for re-election, w as a travelling salesman lor 25 years : and has a fund of good stories of 1 the road. He tells that one time he was in j a town in Central Kansas where a i protracted revival meeting was go ; ing on. One of the residents ol ; the town was named Toby. He i was a tall, gaunt man, with long j whiskers, and was very fond of whiskey, of which he frequently j imbibed beyond his limit. This man was attending one of the j meetings, and the revivalist was j busy scoring every form of vice '; and calling down drastic condem nation upon them. "Woe to the drunkard ! Woe to the drunkard ! Woe to the drunkard !" he shouted in doleful tones. Old Toby got on his feet and tugged at his whiskers, and the fact that he stuttered only made his interruption more marked : G-g-guess ih-th-th-th-at's m-m-e ! 1-1-1 I'm p-p-present !" The preacher went on. "Woe to the liars! Woe to the liar Woe to the thieves! Woe to the thieves!" His voice was dolo rous and sepulchral. Again old Toby got to i his feel. He motioned around the room, swinging and pointing with his arms and lingers. "G-g-get up," he commanded, "G-g-get up ! I le's callin' on . i s-s-someof you fellers' 'e an swered p-p present. It s your turn now. S s-stand up and be c-counted !" Kansas City Jour nal. A fool man appreciates the non sense of a pretty woman more than he does the sense of a homely one. A girl understands men so because she pretends not to. well Some men can cook up excuses for themselves even for being in politics. Then a woman can keep from talking in a card game it's a sign she will never play. C h lldron Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTOR I A. WHIN YOUR FOOD DOES NOT DIGEST w "blue" ..ml tiled an.l (li.-.eonrue.l .
