SENOBITAS. '
Traditions and Habit f the Young
Woman f Moxloo.
The smorita is word with whuh
to conjure in 8jniiih snaJdiig
hm., and tho Mexican senorita U
Dot inferior in charm" to her Span
Ihli ainlcr. In fuel, moat of the up
per clam of Mexico is diMlinctly
Hpimioli in appearance and bearing.
Often, however, there U a alight
mixture of Imlian blood in tha
"white race" of Mexico, which very
rarely detract from the charm of
tho senorita.
Henorita signifies in Spanish ft
young unmarried lady.
In tho pant the idea of Mexico
with respect to women, and cje
rially young unmarried ladies, have)
iM-en more Moorish than anything
else, and theo idea prevail atill to
a great extent. Therefore the Inrli
it of Mexican women aro very dif
ferent from those of women in the
United State or England. On ac
count of excluding women of all
afjes a much a poaaiLIo from ap
pearing alone in the public street
and of more or less isolating them
within their own family, there grew
up in Spain and in Mexico among
tho middle and uj)kt classes the
ciintom of allowing women to make
use of the window of the house
facing on tho direct for observation
stations. Thin wan a long step in
tho advancement of women from
the intolerant ideas of tho Moor.
In Mexico in the cool of the even
ing the window of all tho houses
aro opened along the street, and
hundred of ladies, principally the
young one, appear there to view
the carriage that pass by and to
nod to their friend and thu keen
in touch with a world into which
they are not likely to come in
much closer contact, for tho young
men, or old for that matter, do not
make a habit of visiting the fami
lies of their friend, and young nieu
have to do their courting from out
side tho house. Mont of the house
in Mexico were but a short time
ago provided with window heavily
barred with iron. Through these
tho lover saw one another. And,
although many of the modern
houses are without these bars to
tho windows, tho custom of making
love from tho window is still pre
served. A young girl in Mexico
could not commit a greater crime
against social usage than to appear
on tho street alone with a man not
of her own family. She understands
this, and so sho i cartful not to
go out of the house to see her lover,
even though tho window have no
bar. Modern Mexico.

"Papa," asked his youngest,
"what do you call these little places
in your desk ?"
'Pigeonholes."
"What's tho reason you call 'em
pigeonholes?"
"Because, puss," replied the lit

away look, "that's whal they are
for homing pigeons, you know lit
tle fliers in literature, as it were,
that have come back to me."

Chicago, III., Oct. 7, 1902.
Eight months aoo I was so ill
that I was compelled to lie or tit
down nearly au the time. My
atomach was so weak and opart
that I could keep nothing on it
and I vomited frequently. I
could not urinate without great
pain and I coughed so much that
my throat and lungs were raw
and sore. The doctors pro
nounced it Bright's disease and
others said it was consumption.
It mattered little to me wAt
they called it and I had no de
sire to live. A siater viiiited me
from St, Louis and asked me if
I had ever tried Wine of Cardui.
I told her I had not and she
bought a bottle. I believe that
it saved my life. I believe many
women could save much suffer
ing if they but knew of its value.
disdl i sdty
Dont you want freedom from
pain? Take Wine of Cardui
and make one supreme effort to
be well. You do not need to be
a weak, helpless sufferer. You
can have a woman's health and
do a woman's work in life. Why
not secure a bottle of Wins of
Cardui from your druggist to
