VERA CRUZ WORTH VIS(TING Mexican City Has a Number of At tractions That Invite the . Wandering Tourist. Vera Cruz is & city of contrasts. Tts vividly painted houses of red, blue and yellow, Duilt close to the parrow streets, have grated windows and beavy, forbidding doors, which give riors with their patios, palm-shaded. filled with exotic flowers and cooled by fountains . : - Modern street cars look out of place in the same streets with burros laden with merchandise, frults and vege tables, and caballeros In their hroad sombreros, vividly colored blankets, enormous spurs and silver-mounted saddies. Even the tropical climate Is in sharp contrast with the snowcapped, extinct voleano, Orizaba, which towers almost 20,000 feet Into the cold air above. Although this peak is nearIy fifty miles asway from the city, it can be plainly seen from there and makes a beautiful pleture standing white agninst the sky or catching all the colors of the sunrise.

Another point of interest is the anclent fortress of San Juan «'Ulloa, which is built on an ixland, connected to the mainland at the northern end by & long-sea wall. It has a fair exterfor, being painted a pure and rodiant white, but hidden beneath this innocent mantle are dark and noisome dungeons where many political pris oners of Mexico have beén kept for years. L

Turning hastily from this unpleasant scene, gentle reader, let us retrace our steps to the center of the city, which is marked by the plaza. This Is a large and beautiful square filled with palms and flowers, and watched sver benignly by the ancient and stately cathedral. Every evening during the band concert it is the guaint sustom of the youths of Vera Cruz to promenade around the square on the sutside of the walk in one direction, while the young girls, carefully watchad over by thelr duennas, walk In the spposite direction on the inside. In this way most Mexican flirtations are Jegun. ;

KNOW ALL ABOUT WEATHER Animals, in the Construction of. Their Houses, Show They Can Fore‘tell the Seasons. The weather man has co-partners n the prediction of ‘a bad season in the wild animals who qualify as weather prophets for the experienced yut-of-doors man. ; Ces “Trappers believe firmly in the ability of wild animals to forecast weathar conditions,” says the Hunter-Trad-ar-Trapper, published in Columbus, O. "“The type of house which the musksat builds for the season indicates the tind of weather he expects. When ‘he muskrats bulld large houses, with ‘hicker walls, a cold winter is to be axpected. If the houses are made unasually high, much snow and bigh water will come. i “Just before a storm, all animals ire unusually active and travel fast ind far. Even human beings notice 1 difference in their feelings just betore a storm, especially if they are rroubled with rheumatism or other ailments of a like nature. ; “It is reasonable that nature has provided animals with a sixth sense for forecasting weather conditions which mean so much to them.” Desert Compensations. For all the toll the desert takes of i 1 man it gives compensations, deep breaths, deep sléep, and the comnunion of the stars. It comes upon sne with new force in the pauses of the night that the Chaldeans were a jesert-bred people. It is hard to essape the sense of mystery as the stars move in the wide, clear heavens to sisings and settings unobdcured. They look large and near and paipitant, as if they moved on some stately service, not needful to declare. Wheelng to their appointed stations in the 3ky, they make the poor world-fret of ao account. Of no account you who e out there watching, nor the lean soyote that stands off in the scrub from gou and howls and howls.—Mary Austin, in “The Land of Little Rain"

% Not a Stickup. " While motoring in Tennessee on a ionely road one night we were heing followed in & machine containing five slored men. They kept uncomfortably near us, and after a few miles w~e motioned them to pass, hoping they would speed along, as we feared a possible holdup. Instead of continuing on, they stopped directly in front of us, and when one big black fellow asked us to stop our hearts were al-. nost .at a standstill. However, we sreathed ‘easier when he said: “Wiil jou-all be so kind as to let us have a Attle gas? We sho' can't make it to jown, fo' we am about out”—ExAmerican Pearls. | There is a species of green or irlfescent pearl found oceasionally In ‘he abalones, or ear shells, of the Calfornia coast.
