Soliefonte, Pu. March 6. 1908. WALKING BANKS. All Mexicans Carry Large Sums of Money on Their Persons. A bank to the Mexican is not to be thought of for the bandling of small amounts. Almost any Mexican in pro- fessional or business life carries on his person anywhere between $200 and $800. Even the poor Indian in his blanket can more than likely produce sore than many foreigners. The ordinary foreigner In Mexico. whether tourist or business man lo- cated here, carries perhaps $50 to $100 with him and no more. If a tourist, the foreigner will deposit any money over that amount he happens to have with him In the safe of the hotel at which he Is registered: if a business man. he will carry no more than that amount on his person and will give a check for anything over that amount. The Spaniard resident in Mexico is in- clined to carry much larger sums than any other foreigner here, and he will often carry sums of money aggregat- ing nearly £1.000. The ordinary Mexican professiona! man will be found to carry sums of money on his person that would sur- prise the ordinary traveler and even cause him worry were he forced to carry it with him, yet the Mexican never even thinks of it. It was but a few days ago that an instance of this kind was brought to attention. One Mexican of the middle class asked another in a casual way if he could change a thousand dollac bill. The other pulled out a wallet from his inside pocket and counted out nearly $2,000. Time after time this has happened, and it seems no uncom- mon thing for a Mexican of the middle class to carry between one and two thousand pesos on his person. One Mexican, who was being re- proved for this apparent carelessness and imprudence, replied: “We do not have any of your Ameri- ean holdups and highwaymen in Mex- jeo. I have known my friends to have their pockets picked for large amounts through their own carelessness as to where they carried their money. but [ have never heard of any one being hit over the head with a blackjack and his pockets rifled of their contents. That thing is unknown in Mexico. and so we have no fear In carrying these amounts.” The check idea seems to have taken but small hold as yet upon the citizens of Mexico. especially when small amounts of less than $1,000 are con- cerned. They consider it much easier to pay spot cash than to give a check | for amounts of £50 and $100, and they | claim, with some amount of reason, that a business deal ean be put through with better advantage to themselves when the cash is in sight, Even the Indians in the street carry amounts of cash that would never be supposed to be in their possession. They carry their money in leather belts fas- tened around thelr bodies inside their , trousers. These belts are hollow and | are open at one end. Into the open end the Indian slips his pesos or bills | until he has the whole full. The belt | then is either taken off and nidden | away or the bills are changed for lar- ger denominations and still carried around the body. But the Indian is a stickler for “pesos duros™ and prefers | them to any other class of money ex- | cept gold.—Mexican Herald. | i Too Much at Stake. The question for discussion before the debating society that bad wet in | the little schoolhouse belonging to dis- | trict No. 13 was this: “Resolved, That the works published under the name | of Willlam Shakespeare were really written by Lord Bacon.” Yur BLOOD Needs purifying and your whole system renovating in the spring, as pimples boils, erup- bt appetite and that tired feeling annually prove.

At the close of the discussion the three judges who had been selected held a brief consul- tation and decided in favor of the neg- T ative. “Why did you decide against us? subsequently asked one of the dispu- tants. “You know we presented good | arguments. while the other fellows didn’t show any.” “That's all right” answered the judge to whom this question was ad- dressed, “but two of us had just bought expensive copies of “The Works of Willlam Shakespeare’ that cost us $15. Do you suppose we were going to acknowledge that Shakespeare didn't write ‘em ?’— Youth's Companion. The Tailor and the College Humorist.

A distinguished actor was one time engaged at one of our leading provin- cial theaters in a drama in which he attempts ap escape from a convict pris- on, first by getting rid of his fetters by means of a file and lastly by getting over the prison wall. In the act of | dolng this he is shot at by a warder and kiljed. One particular night the drama had run its usual course up to the point where the actor attempts the escape gver the prison wall. The warder, as usual, presented his rifle, but instead of a loud report nothing but a faint The rifle was lowered and after a brief delay again pointed, but with the same dis- appointing result. The audience now began to hiss and jeer. The disgusted actor then got off the prison wall and, staggering toward the footlights, exclaimed, “It's all up— I've swallowed the file!” and fell prone on the stage amid the laughter and ap plause of the audience. — Pearson's Weekly. Bachelor Seal Skin. “This skin,” said the furrier, “came from a young seal bachelor, a youth ignorant of love and of life.” “How do yon know?” the lady asked. “By its fineness, its perfection,” he replied. “The pile, you will note, is like close cut velvet. Only bachelor seal skins have such a pile. “The bachelor seal,” he went on, “has a rather sad life. The big bull seals In the seal islands have each a household of fifteen or twenty wives, but the young bachelors must herd by themselves. Let one of them at- tempt to marry and straightway a bull slays him. Not till he is big enough to fight and conquer a bull—not till he is fourteen or fifteen years old—can he know the delight of settling down in a home of his own. “TTo leads a hard, ascetic, celibate life, only in the end as like as not to make a lady a very fine coat.

One night some time after he had been engaged at Drury Lane when he was acting Stephano in “The Tempest” a sailor In the front row of the pit got up and, standing upon the seat, hallooed out, “What cheer, Jack Moody—what cheer, messmate?”’ This unexpected address rather as- tonished the audience. Moody, how- ever, stepped forward and, recognizing the man, called out: “Tom Hullett, keep your jawking tacks aboard. Don't disturb the crew and passengers. When the show is over make sail for the stage door, and we'll finish the evening over a jug of punch. But till then, Tom, keep your locker shut.” Moody, it is related, was as good as his word. —Cornhill Magazine. Exchanging Amenities.
