vs IK American TranUr Say. Know Hem t«i Walk.^ Hlrfsonow nml hero to enter a oonw plaint vigorously, and a source of griev| anco against tho Mexican people. ' Yhejl do not know how to walk. Whether men or women, the same thing is true; tile natural grace and innate tact of the fair seat go no further toward mitigating than the greater experience and stro^^ physique of their lordB. Intheinte in those sections which the press of H United States would term “the rural din-1 tricts,” this condition of affairs does not; obtain?- There the people, the lower > orders, in particular, have a free, elastic! gait, which tells of strong, dependable! ■ muscles in excellent training, and the I. poise of head and body is something'good to see. Even, the courier; who runs all 1 day long at the same steady dog .trot pace, lute an easy, unhampered move ment. This is partly due to general good health, exercise, abundant fresh air and constant training from-youth, almost in fancy; largely, also, to the custom of bearing burdens upon the head, to main tain which in equilibrium necessarily in sures a perfect balance. In the national capital the lower classes carry their burdens, as a general rule, upon the head; and,'while the weight depends from the head by means of straps | or stays, its pressure on- tho shoulders acts aa leverage against undue strain, and the constant effort to maintain equilib-1 unlovely to behold. Higher up tathe scale the same results ensue from ilar causes. .Walking is avoided as P^H.as possible, as being not- only [fatiguing but also plebeian; moreover, the old prejudice against women appear ing on tho street unaccompanied has not entirely disappeared, and many are thus hindered by social convention from exer-| tions from which material considerations would not deter them. It is no unusual sight to see women, or men as well, for that matter, take tho' horse cars for aj distance of ono or two blocks only. Then again the question of footgear is ad im portant factor, the build of Mexican shoes not . eing conducive to ease, grace or rapidi. of movement. Women’s shoes are by no means commo il faut unless tho have high and tiny heels, set far | underneath the sole, and tho shoeing of both sexes is manufactured with the narrow pointed toes whose pinching tor tures not a few American toes hold in unhappy remembrance. Tho lower classes are free from this handicap at least, being, oftener than not, barefoot. Their feet, from continual | exposure and want of care, take on tho calloused, grainy appearanco of tho feet of birds. In the interior the masses wear either guaraches, which are rawhide sam dais, or teguas, a species of soled, heel- less moccasin of soft leather, both of which chauasures protect thd foot, with out particularly restrain^H^MiMtod them, | Another element IRHIHHMHH is the narrow, uncomfortoblo si'Walks. I Mexican towns being laid out on thosys-| tern of tho Spaniards, their banjHM are almost invariably narrow in tho ex-1 Itreme. not infrequently givin^ rise to somo local thrust or gag. For instance, one street in Aguascalientcs is known as the Street of tho Jealous from its pave ment of not more than twenty indies wide.—City of Mexico Cor. San Fran cisco Chronicle. It .is Absurd For pqopln to axpset a cure for ladigcw tion, unless they refrain from eating wliat la unwholesome; hot U anything will sharpen the appetite and give tone to the digestive organa, it is Ayer's Sar saparilla. Thousands all over the land testify to tho merits of this medicine. Mrs. Sarah Burroughs, of MS Eighth street, South Boston, writes: “My hus band lias taken Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, for Dyspepsia and torpid liver, and has been greatly benefited.” A Confirmed Dyspeptic. O. Canterbury, of 141 Franklin at., Boston, Maas., write*, that, suffering, for years'from Indigestion, ho was at ; last induced to try Ayer’s Sarsaparilla and, by Its tts^, was entirely cared. Mrs. Joseph Aubin, ’of High street, Holyoke, Mass., suffered for over' a year from Dyspepsia, so that she could, not eat substantial food, became very weak, and was unable to care for her family. Neither the medicines prescribed by physicians* nor any of the. remedies advertised for tho euro of Dyspepsia, | helped her,'until she commenced the use of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. "Three bottles of this medicine,” she writes, “cured me.” Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, rxxrixxn nr Dr. J. 0. Ayer A Co., Lowell, Mats. Price gl; six bottles, gt. Worth** a bottle. The Bobolink's Bald on Bice. The bobolink, transferred to the south, lives daintily on tho rice fields, and this industry is actually crippled by these birds, which appear in innumerable hosts at seed planting and again at harvest time. No one would imagine that our well favored “Robert o’ Lincoln" comes to us from a most fearful raid on rice, and departs from us with the same evil intent. Tho rice crop by the last census was valued at $0,607,000, the product being 110,000,000. pounds. The loss by the rice birds is estimated at $3 000,000 annually. Thousands of men and boys ore employed to shoot theso trespassers,' and tho rice fields are shadowed by a “sulphurous canopy,” as if some grand, battle, was in progress. Tho last report of the commissioner of agriculture has somo startling facts in regard to the ravages of these birds. The rice planters are in despair. Individual losses are often 60 per cent, of the crop, and from $5 to $10 an acre is not uncommon. Tho flight oi these birds is always in the night They appear in tho spring in the last half of April, end-return punctually in South Carolina on Aug, 31 and tho two or three days following.—Scientific American. Baring ths scraps. Some wiseacre has said that New York wastes as much food as Paris uses. This bnot altogether true, at least in our day. We do not cook as skillfully and frugally as the French, but we utilize our scrap - and remnants more carefully than of yore. Tho material sent away from the tables of a big hotel is now industriously garnered and carted off to somo of tho minor restaurants, where it is recon structed into tootiisome and wholesome dishes for habitues who count their pen nies before investing in a meal. Many a savory 'morsel that, fails to tempt ths palate of a millionaire thus finds its way under the bolt of a tramp. * ; How to Travel Abroad. , Col. Thoms* W.
