"For fastidious dressing and cleanliness I have never seen anything like It Those who hare been accustomed to sleeking up on the outside grow much worse In here, and those who never even combed then hair on the outside have It as cleanly parted as they can. I know of a hundred Instances where convicts have risked being paddled or having time taken away Just for the sake of sharing. They get bold of a razor or Improvise one and keep it in their cells. They all have mirrors in their cells along with the calendars. "I know of one Instance of a trusted prisoner who begged for weeks to bo allowed to wear a hat instead of the prison cap because he thought be did not look well In it Whenever they get an opportunity they press their trou sers. They save collars for Sundays and appear very clean and neat and nice In chapeL I guess it Is all be cause they have time to think abou i themselves more than ever.

In Ecuador, one of the South Ameri can republics, the bark of a tree which grows on the slopes of the Andes is utilized for the making of blankets. The blanket is over Bis feet long and over five feet wide and Is as soft and pliable as though It were made of flan nel. It Is about the thickness of a good flannel blanket and can be rolled up and put In a strap without hurting or injuring It. Thte tree or bark blan ket is merely a strip of bark cut from a section of the trunk of. the blanket or demcjagua tree. The Indians make a cutting nroifml the trunk to get It. and they prepare It by soaking It In water until it Is soft. It is then pound ed so that the rough outside can be stripped off and the inside alone left, The Inside, is of flue fibers so Joined together by nature that It makes a beautiful blanket, warm enough to be used as a cover and soft enough for a mattress.. :;".'".
