w AM AMERICAN WOMAN’S ATCRY or Wtut Rha H»w In Mexico—ClurAeler- UtlM at the People. It teoid of the Mexican*, *• of the Boleni,Stellarapoaactdeep endne* I* rtywwed in ttelr eye*. Ttio Mexican* ' are good character reader#, and taped- ally not* tha Uartog of atrangew, TUay an very polite and lioipltabte, and rery proud. The higher olaaaoa of aodety In Mexico are alihuat aa cxclutira on the court circle* at Europe. A middle dale b growing up in Mexico, Mexican aalu* tatione nro exceedingly cordial “Men tall into each other’s arms and remain ■ thus for arveral minute*, patting each other on the shoulder and Indulging in all sdrta of endearing epithets.” Another lalutatiou, creu between friends of; op posite sex, is thin’ described: “In the quickest, matt spirited manner, tliarina of both lurries are outstretched, they rush together for a second, their breasts barely touch, and whilo the observer is watching for a kite to follow this ardent satate, they separate tnd the abmn> is finished. The extreme frankness accompanying it compete coo to admire the custom: for it means no more than linnd shuking among the Americans.” If friends meet twenty times a day they must pause to shake hands. At the cspltsl one day there was seen two splendid carriages, each occupied by one man. Tlio carriages halted, both ’ men alighted, “removed hats, shook hands,' embraced, talked for n few moments, again embraced, shook hands, bowed, took oil lints, and each entered his carriage and went his way. ” 'Tho formal salutation between women is a lap of tho right iutnd on tho left shoulder, and then a generous shako of tho hand. Women who nro Intimate friends not only top the shoulder, but lay their cheeks softly together for an instant. A lady traveler commends this sort of feminine salutation, and evidently pre fers it greatly to tho American form of. greeting on tho lips. ‘ The Mexican makes really os many gestures as n Frenchman, and has quito in extensive social sign language. Their blowing of kisses from tho fingers is a graceful demonstration. A certain posi tion of tho thumb nnd forefinger signi fies “stop n moment," One arm held half upright, with tho elbow in tho other band, means “ho is too Rtingy to pay his debts:’’ one hand rubbed across tho fore arm, “ho plays on tho credulity of his friends;” tho palm held outward, with thumb and forefinger forming a circle, “sho fe very rich;” tho fingers of ono hand closod, except the thumb and little finger,’ “ho’s a sharper.’’ Educated Mexican men are great skeptics in relig ious matters—except when they are very rick. The people nro temperate. Young girls aro coiled “pullets;’! marriageable men, “young or old roosters,” and the street arnbs who ogle ladles are known as' “lizard#.” Americans who have mar ried Mexican women find it necessary to live in Mexico, for their wives are very unhappy elsewhere. Mexican children lire never struck. Corporal punishment in schools is prohibited by law. Correc tion takes the form of persuasion and ap peal. Tile result is tint: in all classes a grntlo com-.esy and consideration for Olliers prevail. Hoodlum children aro unknown In Mexico. A hoodlum child is ono who Inis lieen coifed and abused until bo naturally (that is, according to the ex amples i et him) begins to kick and pound ot.ieiu who nro weaker than himself. Tho step from this to other deeds of violence is short. Quo cannot tell half of the graces and courtesies of tho Mexican children. “In tho alumeda, with kindly deference, they will always yield to elderly and infirm persons tlicvr own cozy and shady seats. On entering a Bala, where there are fow ov many guests, these exquisitely polito little genii, men will go all around, shak ing bunds with every one present. They never break into tho conversation, but when addressed will modestly join it; then, wishing to retire, will say, ‘with vour kind permission,’ and, ngain shak ing hands, move gracefully from tho company. Girls are no less imbued with tire same spirit of courtesy. A Mexican boy never thinks himself too near man hood to pay the compliment to his mother of kissing her hand every time ho comes into her presence." Tho Mexican flowers aro very deeply colored. “If red, it is tho most glowing nnd intense; if yellow or purple, tho richest; if white or pink, tho purest and most) delicate.” Fresh flowers are abund ant and cheap throughout the year, in cluding roses, pansies, sweet peas, helio- “Calla lilies, the size of of an, bloom^ux- uriant in every ditch," and tho gera niums are as tall as a man. Tho most remarkable flower is the “tree of tho little hands,’’ a nativo of tho colder re- § »n. Tlio bright red flowers nro well etined miniature hands. It is slow of growth, not reaching full „ sizo in TOO years. In tho Valley of Mexico fifty varieties of lilies, no two aliko, bloom on mountain, crag and jAdii. - Tilts mortality of the City i f M-xico is fearful and Imlf of it is due i > u.rg nnd diarrheal discuses. The Mc.\.can capital can hnnlly Iv said to have in mmvhi of drainage m.diewornge. Cntur’i U com mon among tho Mexicans, tmd when they Iiavo colds they do.not nllmv water to touch their faces. They have very fow nervous disease*. Tho i-d.iicv of their lives is too measured for limt.— Cincinnati Commercial Gazette Hoik lie- It is Absurd For people to expect a care for Indiges tion, unless they refrain from eating whet la unwholesome; but If anything wilt sharpen tlio appotito and give tens . to tho digestive organs, ft is Ay*r*» Bar- ■nparllU, Thousands all over the tend testify to the mortis oi this msdirino.
