TO ENJOY YOURSELF

IS AS MUCH OF AN ART AS IT IS TO MAKE A FORTUNE.

How to Acquire the Power of Self Eotet^ tainment—Th* Training TThlch Aot* dates the Tlire® Il'»—The Child's Fl«

Senses—Genuine Culture.

Every one think* that be can enjoy himself, and does not lack for efforts to realize bis ambition, bat it is as much of an art to have a good time a* it is to make a fortune The latter does not come by whistling for it, and tbo good time does not follow because one is on a vacation and in search of It The larger number of persons enter upon life without any special cc. 'deration of its meaning or its opportunity, or what they can do with themselves. If they can earn a living they think that they do well, and if they earn more than a living, tbey arc pretty sure to show that tbey do not know how to make a wise use of their surplus. This is seen often enough to almost allow the forming of tho rule that people usually enjoy life in inverso ratio to their opportunities. They find themselves, for instance,able to take a vacation after perhaps twenty years of incessant activity in business or manual labor. The fact of a month or two to spend, not ur tbo click of the telegraph, but in going ai it at their own sweet will, is so new, so out of rango with all their antecedents, that they do not know what to do with themselves. They are like Adam and Eve when cast out of para^ae. They have all the world before them, in its most inviting aspects, and tbey stand before it ill the attitude of those who do not know what to turn to.

TOE EARLY EDUCATION.

Ono can havo deep sympathy with these persons, but it is easier to save the younger generation from repeating their mistakes in life than to rescuo them from their perplexity. The difficulty lies deeper than the occasion that discloces it It lies in the early education. The greater part of our people are educated in tho three R's, but they are not educated through their natural instincts or tastes. Many break through their bread winning scrvice, and follow some aside for its own sake, and it is not nccessary to tell such persons how to employ themselves in their vacation, bo it a day or a month. Tbey have the power of interesting themselves in their •elf activity, and there is a perennial fountain of life in thin capacity. It is the power of self imrjrov«mcnt. It is the ability to make two blades of grass grow where but one grew before. But those who have the natural gift of self entertainment are tho smaller part of tbo community, and if tbo multitude are to enjoy themselves, how is the result to be reached)

It is a process of unconscious education that goes back to one's childhood, that begins with the mother's education of the child's Ave seusri beforo the days of the public school, that marks her trysting time for tho child to ascertain where ho is strong and where be is weak. It is in such touching of tho indefinite in tho child on tho part of a judicious parent which is tbo beginning of an education that gives one the command, in tho courso of timo, of faculties that most persons have never used, because neither in youth nor Li ripened lifo have they ever found out that they had tbem. It is this sort of training that antedates the school, and, when tho education of women has advanced loss than a thousand leagues beyond its present reach, and most women are where the really intelligent women are now, wo shall have ou education through tho Instincts, as well as through tho purely working qualities of tho brain, that gives us the education of the entire man or woman.

AN UNFAILING MKTROD.

This is a glimpse of what is meant by going to the bottom of things and beginning at tho foundation. Tho capacity to enjoy life above tho animal nature is largely the result of a careful education of the senses or instincts, so that wo shall naturally aim for the best and assimilato it to our life. You cannot transform grown up people into what they are not, and it would be cruel to pain many persons by pointing out to them their deficiencies. That is not required, but it is one of tho sweet amenities of existence to assist our fellow men, where it is possible, in widening tho circle of their facilities for enjoying life. It can be dono by suggestion, by example, by ministrations of affection, and where it Is dono with discretion one is almost sure to receivo tho hearty thanks of those who havo been led to feel a now interest in the things that are around them.

It in said that a humorist is ono of the most vnlu itk» iticmtters of the community, though it

impossible for such a person to be taken seriously but he communicates so much good fci'linu thr.Hi "':»ut soc'. ty, that be does for tbo htll (tint over serious what a thunder storm in a fe-ii*pu of dull weather does for tho atmo*{liorv. iNp electrifies tho air and gives relief to |v:it up\aturvs. Tbo persons who enjoy lifo timnjgh having an asido that gives them genuine oultiire, and who have the capacity of tvmmuniWlng the su «tion of this power to others orpf awakenit within them, arc tho Iwnefafttors of society. If they I«ip5en to landlords, they always havo crowded houwr*. lfchoyaro teachers, they always awaken their ftapils and push them forward. If tboy arcXparents, their children in mature life nro sura to rise up aiul call them blessed. Therv? Ls\ho capacity In nearly every one to got more out of life in •v good sense than they aro getting, and tho secret of it is to use ouc^s little spore time every day for the purpose of advancing on the Uno of what one likes Co do to the things that lie outside of one's immediate industry or calling. This Is an unfailing method for reaching out to pr-naneot supplka of enjoyment—Boston I ild.

A Tobacco nunffry Indian.

In ISSi and 1SSS3, while traveling for a large 8& Louis house in the Indian territory, 1 learns) more of Indian traits and Indian character than I could have found out from reading 100 Indian stories such as were written by J. Feaimoro Cooper, Mark Twain and BUI Nyo. You never meet an Indian On the road in the Indian nations, but your native quietly and suddenly emerges from the tali gran or "th of the wayside, stands on the highway I- -oat of you and says: "How." You toU him yon are well ami he say*: "Whisky."

NEGRO SUPERSTITION.

AFRICAN FET1CHISM BOFTENED BY CONTACT WITH CIVILIZATION.

Charms Worn for Protection Against thi Eril One—The Belief in Wltcbes and **Cunjur diggers" Signs Portending

Death—Various todlcnm* Jfotlons.

The contact of the African with a -nighty civilization modified and softened bt fetichism, and today his superstition is of a different fiber.' He is a firm believer in a personal devil, and accepts bin with all time honored stage properties—horns, tail, cloven foot and red hot pitchfork. For protection against this awful one the negro wore the greatest number of charms." To ward off his familiars the witches, every negro nailed to his cabin door a horsesboa This charm, however, had no power unless it had been accidentally found. The "white folk® at le big house" were often presented with one of these witch defiers, and if tbey failed to use it, the giver, pityingly and surreptitiously, nailed it somewhere on "marster's" premise^

Old

negro

ntirsea teach their charges that

the tangles which after a night's sleep are apt to appear in the hair are knots tied by witches, and everybody in the southern* states is familiar with the darkies' belief that witches ride horses and mules in the dead of night, exhausting their strength.

To ward off the approach of any of the foul sisterhood silver dimes and five cent pieces with a bole in them, strung on a cord and suspended from the neck, are unrivaled. Odds and ends of bones strung together, and blessed by a Voudoo priestess, constitute a Grigri, which is a marvelous foil against the Evil One. In southern Louisiana there aro large numbers of negroes who believe that certain other negroes have commerced with Satan, receiving from him a liberal endowment of his diabolic powers. These are known as "cunjur niggers," who can "hoodoo" you. To incur the ill will of one of 4hom is a grievous misfortune.

As every negro, even the most debased, is sure of salvation, and speaks with confidence pf his place in heaven, where he will "set at de same table ez do white folks," it is not strange that he revels in signs portending death. His heaven, like the Mussulman's, is one of sensual delights, and corpses and funerals are to him a great joy. To put a black pin into a child's dress, to try on any one's mourning garments, to open an umbrella in tho house, to break a looking glass, to carry a spade through the house, ore all signs of death. To drive a nail after dark, except in making a cof9n, will bring death and any man so unfortunate as to bury three wives will bury six A spider seen is. tbo morning brings good luck at noon, disappointment and in the evening, bad luck.

If aocidentally a garment be put on wrong sido out, and if it bo worn that way until noon, and thon turned, the wearer will have good luck. To give a knife or scissors to a friend is to sever friendship, except, indeed, a bent pin be given in return, which averts the impending rupture. Tho Roman Catholic negroes of southern Louisiana will not cut a banana crosswise, because through its center runs a dark streak, which if cut transversely presents the appearance of a cross. To avoid this sacrilege tho fruit must be broken.

They accept tho Bible literally, and as they receive it in most grotesque form from their "preachers," it is little wonder that their conception of things spiritual is distorted. Without a pang of conscience they will eat the chickens from a neighbor's hen roost, the pigs from his pen, the melons from his "patch," but cannot be induced to commit the unpardonable sin of eating a dove.

If a black cat enters your houso you will receive money an itching palm denotes the same thing, while an itching sole signifies that you will travel Should your right ear burn, then some one is talking in your favor but if it be the left, the tonguo is evilly entreating you, and you must immediately wish that its owner may bite it Should you succeed in spitting in your right ear, you silence your enemy. If a knife, fork or scissors iu falling sticks up in the floor, prepare for visitors also if black cock crows three times in succession at the back door. The possession of a frizzly ben means good luck to the owner, while two frizzly hens denote a measure of prosperity which rouses the jealousy of "olo Satan."

There is a ludicrous belief that to step over the outstretched legs of any one will stop his further growth. But the evil spell will work backward, for by stepping back over the legs they resume their suspended work of development.

No work in garden or field can be done without regard to lunar phases. An old auntie in my family would never make soaf except in tho full of the moon, and then the soap must be stirred only ono way. Her soap stick, of rare virtues and great age, was believed to havo certain occult powers, which made it popular among tho soap making sisters.

Ask a negro man why he wears a brass ring in one ear. and be tells you it will cure soro eyes. Chills and fever are cured by swallowing cobweb pill ., and the pain from any insect bite is instantly removed by rubbing tbo puncture with three kinds of grass. What folly to endure warts when by rubbing them with apiece of stolen fat bacon, and then burying it secretly, the warts will disappear in a few days. So, too, why weary the flesh with looking for a lost article when you need only to throw something away to find tho thing mislaid! Your mind, however, must be fixed upon the thing lost to succeed, so that hero one of the eJenfenta of the faith euro seems to come in. Any lady who throws away tho combings after dressing bra* hair will suffer with headache, for the birds weave this hair into their tvrts.

MEXICO'S SOCIAL LIFE.

THE RAILROAD DOING AWAY WITH MANY OLD CUSTOMS.

The Modifying Influences in Externals. Absurd Old Moorish Traditions—The Senorlta In Rebellion—The Male Eseort.

Objection to Greater Social Freedom.

Naturally the railways, in changing customs and ways of life, first show their modifying influences in externals, as in dress and houso furnishing-, but a change is bound to be mado in social customs. Mexico derived its habits of life from Spain at a time when Spain was still overlain by Moorish traditions and customs. Colonial Mexico faithfully copied tho pattern of Mother Spain, and stuck to the example long after many Spanish cities began to be Europeanized. But tho influence of the dead and gone Moor is sti.l strong in both Spain and her former colonies. The Moorish house holds its owu here, with its quiet exterior and lavish adornment within with its barred windows and heavy gates rather than doors, and its grouping of all tho living rooms around a courtyard, thus making a bouse as open as day inside, and destroying that privacy wo gain in the north from the system of placing chambers up stairs. Th^ Mexican hoese, with its rooms communicating by glazed doors, and each room opening by another door upon a corridor, is almost semi-public. Its air of privacy consists solely in the big outer door and the barred windows. Inside theso houses, many of them as beautiful as a dream, filled with birds and flowers, and gently noisy by the plashing of fountains, live tho women, whose outer lifo is hedged about with absurd old Moorish traditions, contrary to tho native Mwrtf-m spirit of liberty and to tho tendencies of thw age. Mexican women i|»e the severest critics of the ancient customs. They rebel against them and sigh for a greater measure of social freedom. Ask almost any senorita and sho will tell you that "life is stupid and dull, that there is no social gayety, and that she is tired to death of it, and wants to go to New York or Paris."

If you wish to keep a young girl contented with the old order of things, restrict her reading to her prayer book dont let her seo a novel or a newspaper, and keep her caged up in the house. Then, perhaps, she will imagine that this is the lot of women the round world over. But women are keen, and it doesnt take long for them to discover that men have mado tho rules by which one-half tho human race aro expected to live in meek subjection. There is not a man alive with the soul of a mouse who would submit to tho rules governing women, even in the freest countries. When a girl of 18 goes out on the street she docs not wish to be "protected" by a ft-year-old boy cub in knicfccrbockers. Sho thinks, and rightly, that she

ought

to go by herself, if she so wishes, and that if men will speak to her and annoy her, tho police ought to lock them up. And she is exactly right. A woman, young or old, should bo as free from molestation in the publio streets as a man, and if she is not, then the lamp posts are lacking their fittest ornaments.

IN THE CITY OF lirXICO.

In this big City of Mexico, with rich houses, great churches, electrio lights, street cars, luxurious shops and all the appliances of civilization, there is not a single, solitary cafe where a lady can go without a male escort to take an ice or r. light lunch. This a humbug, and no wonder Mexican women are beginning, as they learn of foreign ways, to enter a protest against this selfish system, which turns a boy of 14 loose into a world of temptations, and forbids a modest girl the most innocent freedom. I have heard a lovely lady, tho mother of a largo family, say that sho would feel uncomfortable to go with her daughters into the principal restaurant here to order ices. But let her take a hobbledehoy boy along and tho proceeding would be proper enough. Great is the magio of trousers. Tho best thing for the Mexican ladies to do is to get up a social revolution, and inform "Pepe" and "Pancho" that they will no longer be governed by the ghosts of dead and vanished Moors, whose solo living representatives are found in the most degraded corner of Africa. If nearly 1,900 years of Christianity have not advanced civilization in a great Christian city so that tho mothers of families and the charming daughters of thoso mothers can go about in public enjoying all innocent liberties, why then we must confess our civilization a veneered barbarism, and that tho brute mob is still. too strong to permit women their just rights.

Tho objection frequently mado to giving greater social freedom to tho women is that tho men, being of southern blood, are too passionate in their addresses, and would, if permitted to mingle more freely with tho women, begin to pay court to them and mako love in earnest. But I dont believetbero is any less chivalry among Mexican men than exists in northern nations. The ovcrstress laid on love in Latin nations comes from tho Moorish seclusion in which the women live. The young men are poetical, and talk of lovo when they should be playing polo or hunting, and tho mystery surrounding the life of the women stimulates their fancies. It is an unhealthy system when youag men begin writing erotic verses at an age when outdoor rports should
