Celombla, and early In the morning when one ft the South American passengers catnt on deck. Another South American arose from his deck chair, extended his hand and as the men shook hands inquired after the health of tbe Aewcomer, bis wife and his children. As they baf-erted company only about eight hours before in the smoking room, this seemed like unnecessary courtesy. The observer noticed that this happened in the case of all the Colombians on board, so he asked one man about It. "It is a custom of the country," said be. "On the occasion of meeting a per son for the first tine each day It la etiquette to shake bands and to make Inquiries about the health of tbe person so greeted and of his relatives. It would not be considered polite to do otherwise." Continuing, this man told of taking a walk one day to Bogota with a mer chant of the place. They were bent on business and were to cover a dis tance that might be made rather easily In tea -minutes. Because of the sary stops to make tbe customary in quiries and to shako hands with friends of tbe merchant tbe trip took nearly an nour. isew xork sun. Telepathy. "So you believe in telepathy?"
