Leave the Doors Open The City of Mexico swarms with life yet it is still life It is the hour of the siesta when you arrive and the streets are deserted of moving tilings though every darkened doorway possesses its own colony of slumberers who have cast themselves down where they stood to sleep away the heat laden hours when no man works Even the very dogs slink into the shadow of the dazzling wails and loll pitifully The tinkle of mule bells Is hushed The cry of the muleteer sounds no longer To walk through these streets with im perious foot after the British fashion seems sacrilege One might be walk ing through a city of the dead But the hot hours pass the city awakens the mules strain and plunge at the collar the dogs prowl about be tween the legs of those who pass the shops are opened the scent of garlic saturated cookery rises strongly man tilla shrouded faces peep from ancient casemates protected by massive iron bars and the city of sleep becomes a city of leisurely wakefulness You no tice these barred casemates particular ly They are a feature of Mexico Householders bar the windows and leave the doors unfastened and here you have an epitome of Mexican char acter Do nothing openly everything on the sly even to wooing your lady love You might spend a long lifetime in the City of Mexico and still leave much unseen there are so many fea tures to note the actual city life tiie life beyond those jealously guarded windows the life lived in the flowei scented patios where cooling fountains play with musical softness Here comes a vaquero riding nonchalantly up the street a typical product of Mexico a cattle hand from one of the outlying ranches a perfect fury un chained when the liquor of the coun try is in him a gentle dreamy child when the liquor has evaporated and yet between the two events he might have committed a dozen murders with out the slightest compunction Ilis swarthy face is alight with merry laughter His earrings sparkle in the declining sun The gay trappings of his magnificent horse fling back daz zling specks of color In his eha parajos those fringed overalls which protect the speckless white riding breeches from the dust of the way liis bell buttoned jacket his sombrero with the haft of a machete protruding from his crimson sash he might be a hero of old legend instead of a com monplace cowboy Frank H Shaw in Chambers Journal Why Men Wear Trousers No living man of this age ever de liberately chose to adopt trousers He was forced into them and all other eccentricities of dress by woman In the very earliest sartorial experience of every man he is swathed in a queer bundle of incoherent bandages by a woman Later she puts him into cute little dresses so that the neighbors cant tell him from his little sister Still later she cuts off his curls and puts him into knickerbockers and he puts on long pants when she gives the word and not before That is all that man has to do or ever had to do with wearing trousers Woman forced him into them in the first place and now he is afraid to wear anything else for fear of making a sensation Provi dence Journal Virginia Cabbage Select a small fine pointed head of cabbage
