HOLIDAYS IN MEXtCO
Titer Ar Numerous but Arc JTot All
fcocul Celebrations
The visitor in Mexico Is apt to be
surprised at the number of holidays
celebrated here aud made the occasion
of rejoicing with accompanying music
aud decoration and is likely to think
that the Mexican does nothing but
celebrate
With his religious and national feast
daj s the Mexican does have many
holidays of more or less general im
portance and when he Is not celebrat
ing these he may be celebrating the
day of his patron saint or of that of
some member of his family so that It
seems Xo require little Inducement for
him to celebrate If a member of tho
family goes out of town for a few
days or weeks his return Is celebrat
ed in some mild way and his welcome
home made pleasant
But not all of the celebrations which
take place In the capital arc Mexican
as the foreign colonies contribute their
share of feast days The Americans
celebrate their day of independence on
the glorious Fourth of July and ten
days latec the French celebrate the
fall of the Bastille and so It goes the
British celebrating the birthday of
their king the Italians the entry mto
Rome of the troops of united Italy the
Germans the birthday of the kaiser
the Swiss the day of the formation of
the confederation The Spanish cele
brate the birthday of their king and
in September their feast of Corvodon
ga is Important enough to last three
days No doubt there are other cele
brations not so public ot prominent
such as the Chinese New Year and
others but the above goes to show
that not all the feasting in the capital
is done by natives An interesting
point however is that foreigners who
come to Mexico are soon the keenest
for the coming of the various holidays
and Mexican religious or their own
are jealously demanded as leisure days
from all houses of business or com
merce Modern Mexico
CLIFF VINEYARDS
The Farmer on the Rhino anfl iho
Difficulties He Surmounts
Going down the Rhine you get a4 les
son in farming If you wanted to buy
a farm in America you would go out
with a pick and spade and dig holes
all over a 100 acre tract to make sure
the soil was so and so and that there
was not more than one stone to the
rood On these cliff vineyards along
the Rhine it looks to you as if thero
was not more than a bushel of earth
to the rood and that the rest was all
Stone
In America jou wouldnt buy a farm
on the perpendicular surface of the
Grand canyon yet you imagine the
bluffs of the Rhine seemed almost as
impossible before the enforprishig
grapevines got a start there There
may be a few inches of space on the
cliffs where some German has not
made a terrace big enough for a bunch
of grapes but if any such spot has
been overlooked you failed to discover
it with your binoculars
There are advantages in owning a
vineyard on the Rhine Next to the
financial returns the chief advantage
lies in the glamour of romance that
hangs over the bluffs Frowninjr cas
tles look down on you from the most
inaccessible peaks
Who lives in that big brownstone
house you ask a German passenger
on your steamer as you round a bend
That is the castle of an old noble
man who kidnaped a beautiful maid
and held her prisoner you are in
formed When the knights of those
days tried to rescue her the old noble
man would simply drop a big stone or
two upon them as they attempted to
climb the cliff One day while rolling
a stone down upon a knight the noble
man fell off and was killed
And now you observe I suppose
the place is for rent Do you know
how much the administrator wants for
it Chicago Tost
Mrs Craisies Hnhits of Work
It had been Mrs Craigies habit for
many years to begin her work at S
oclock in the morning no matter how
late she had been up the night before
Off and on she wrote till 1130 never
being able to do more than half an
hours work at a time a disability
which makes the amount she produced
the more amazing After luncheon
even after a luncheon at the Carlton
she wrote again until it was time to
pay calls and to talk at tea tables as
idly as if she had been idle all day a
feat of unbending which few women
and fewer men can perform But after
dinner she was always tired At
night she confessed I never by any
chance do anything I cannot even
write a post card then

August the name of the month is
accented on the first syllable Au

second syllable This is due no doubt
to the fact that though both started
from the Latin augustus they have

THE MOPERN HOTEL
A Product of the Tim cm It Im Mntle hy
the GucntM
Among the silly and absurd articles
appearing from time to time concern
ing hotel and tavern keeping one tells
us again and again how the modern
hotel is shown to disadvantage when
compared with the inns of colonial
days In these articles the writer di
lates and expatiates on the hospitality
of the old time tavern and the cold
indifferent and almost cruel treatment
received from the hands of the modern
hotel man Of course every one knows
if he will drop sentiment f a moment
and give the subject a little sober re
flection that the modern traveler tour
ist or hotel guest would absolutely re
fuse the accommodations afforded by
the Inn of a hundred years ago The
only advantage of a hotel of those
times lay in the fact that the lack of
material comforts drew from the trav
eler a warmer fellow feeling and great
er a condition in which one
man was more his brothers keeper
than prevails today Again the travel
by coach and the small number thrown
together en route or at the hotel made
closer acquaintanceship not only possi
ble but far more desirable than in our
day of big hotels and big crowds
The modern hotel is a product of the
times The wants desires whims fads
and on top of all these the imperative
demands of those who travel have
made the hotel of today what It is from
the standpoint of food accommoda
tions method of service and manage
ment and from every point of view
The hotel keeper of today responds to
the bidding of the guests One might
almost say of the man and woman who
travel Here is your hotel You have
planned it furnished it You have out
lined its methods of management and
it is what you believe should be com
prehended In the modern hotel
The colonial tivern which would not
be tolerated for a moment in our days
was adapted to its times To speak of
It as being superior to the modern hos
telry is to claim that the old stage
coach which left you more weary and
worn at the end of a hundred miles
than the palace coach does today at
the end of a thousand miles was a su
perior vehicle of travel to those used
on the modern railroad Hotel World
SENTENCE SERMONS
No one is defeated until he gives up
Hard times has a good many rela
tives It is the twin brother of the
blues
That man has failed who has not
been able to keep a good opinion of
himself
Self control will succeed with one
talent where self Indulgence will fail
with ten
What the superior man seeks is In
himself What the small man snks
Is in others
There is no disgrace in unprevent
able poverty The disgrace is in not
doing our level best to better our con
dition
Poverty itself is not so bad as the
poverty thought It is the conviction
that we are poor and must remain so
that is fatal
Confidence is the Napoleon in the
mental army It doubles and trebles
the power of all the other faculties
The whole mental army waits until
confidence leads the way Success
Tlie Hazel Tree
A curious survival of the days when
the magicians of Europe sought inde
fatigably for the philosophers stone is
the superstition that attaches to the
hazel tree The old alchemists used
to make their divining rods out of
hazel twigs and they fostered the be
lief that it would mysteriously direct
its owner to hidden treasures if it was
manipulated with the absolute faith
that was required in all those occult
enchantments of the middle ages As
time went on the rod of Jacob as
a branch of hazel was universally
known gathered new powers Not
only would it lead to the discovery of
buried hoards but It would also act
as an infallible agent in locating run
away servants and escaped criminals
It was a sure guide to underground
springs as well and was an unfailing
charm against the lightning
Curious French 3IarUet
There is a curious old market near
Paris in which everything is sold at
secondhand Working girls can fit
themselves out there from head to
foot As a writer says Mimi can sell
her old felt hat and buy a straw one
exchange her old dress for a new one
and if she likes buy a steak and a
salad for her dinner a paper bag of
fried potatoes sweets and some flow
ers for her window Democracy is king
here and no more attention is paid to
the millionaire who is looking for
something marvelous which he may
pick up cheap than to theman with a
wooden leg who wants sMiew boot in
exchange for a dozen sardine tins five
gloves and a stocking
